MLB21 RTTS Mode Gutted by SDS

[Pdubya64]

I almost don't know where to begin. While I am trying to understand SDS scrapping RTTS as a separate mode, I am really finding it hard.

They have taken all the fun out of it. Limited to one player, a horrendous first intro that throws you into "the draft", makes you a two-way player and essentially blows up the stats and advancement meta.

Man, if I could get a refund I would, but, hey SDS, you got me for $90, just don't expect me to be happy and playing your modes that you decided to shove down my throat. I typically ran anywhere from 3-6 RTTS players at one time. Despite the warts here and there and the annoying archetypes, it was FUN.

Now I know why I was suspicious when absolutely NO DETAILS on RTTS were in the Thursday previews. I really like some of the improvements in the game, honestly. But I spend 90% of my time in RTTS and this is a kick to the groin as far as I am concerned.

Really disappointed. Thanks for gutting my favorite mode Sony...

You can still have multiple rtts players my guy, press square when highlighting runs and you can start new or load a save

But you can't make different players, you're limited to your one ballplayer playing different positions on different saves

Exactly, we are now forced to just 1 player. In previous years we could have fun and make different players for different saves which is now impossible

Not to mention, as far as I can tell, stats are going to be capped at 50 as far as how high you can take them by playing and training.

The rest of your stats will go up with equipment and by your archetypes.

So no more 5 tool players on RttS....

They basically went the NBA2k way...ALL because of ****ing Diamond Dynasty....

RttS is the only damn mode I play, why SDS did you have to mess with it!!!!!!!!!!

Re: MLB21 RTTS Mode Gutted by SDS

Oh and to add to the frustration, the GRIND IS REAL....

Halfway through my first minor league season my OVR has went up ONE POINT!

And for whatever reason, I only play 2 out of every 3 games....I dont even qualify for league leaders.

And I am putting up huge stats, so that isnt the issue....batting .356.

Maybe it is my 50 ovr durability that is near impossible to raise?

I am supposed to be the next big thing in baseball, shouldnt I be playing every day?

From the sound of it, they basically killed the mode.

Next is franchise mode.

Then eventually, they will remove gameplay and focus entirely on the card collecting game with new super flashy pack opening animations.
Finally, they will remove that as well and will just take your credit card.

Joking aside, if they could get away with it they would do it.
The greed is real.

We told you.

Microtransactions are cancer.

Once they are put into a game, the entire philosophy of game design gradually revolves around maximizing converting players into payers.

Oh but people kept telling me “who cares his people spend their money it doesn’t effect you” it’s their money not yours why worry !?

As you can see people kept playing DD spending $$ while those “who cares” people watched it happen thinking it wasn’t effecting them.

Sports game are dead mob was the last one standing I’m sure slot machines will come in next line nba did

And golf games will be about collecting cards for coloured balls or golf club or to have red pants.

Sports games used to be the only thing I played for years. They just keep killing them more and more.

That is so dumb. No buy here I'm glad I found out in time. Thanks.

I guess it's all about money now, huh SDS.

Wow. This sounds horrible. $elling out it seems.

NCAA 14 has taught me I can enjoy playing an older game indefinitely, I think I’m nearing the point of doing that with most sports games.

You can have more than one save.

More than one type of player.

The only real differences:

You don't have a pointless dog and pony show at the pre draft games/drills. Thank God.

You can be a 2 way player or a one position player. Totally up to you.

Most notable difference is the archetypes are gone. Once again....thank God.

I'm playing a SP/3rd baseman. I have a loadout for my SP and one for my 3rd baseman.

Essentially I kept reworking my loadout until I had a Flamethrower for my pitcher, and a PurePower for my 3rd baseman.

My pitcher throws 95mph heat, and my 3rd baseman hits 60pwr.

It's the same as before, but better. They are giving us the freedom to do what we want. The archetypes forced us to play as one type player This way allows us the freedom to try different player types, without starting over completely.

I only play rtts, and this is by far the best it's ever been. I have games as a starting pitcher, 3rd, and dh. All with their own load out.

Of course I could have just said, no pitching only 3rd. Or I could have said closer and 3rd.

I haven't bought anything threw microtransactions, never have and never will.

Freedom and rtts......thank god.

how is this the best its ever been? the stupid loadout programs don't even work properly. I have 12 stolen bases only been credited for 3 in the loadout program. Have made 4 starts as a pitcher and not one of them have contributed anything at all to my pitching loadout program.
**** is just flat broken.

Re: MLB21 RTTS Mode Gutted by SDS

And we have to be a two way player to start? This is so dumb. Everything is geared toward Diamond Dynasty. I’m struggling to even want to play this game at all.
