Your post sums up what I was thinking after reading the RTTS Dev blog.

A lot of great improvements, but I think the way attribute points is handled may be the best change in the whole RTTS experience. It appears that initial ratings will be higher and we won't come in as a 55-rated player with A-potential. Instead, we can actually have some skill entering the minors, like in real life. Also, increasing the cost of attribute points as the ratings increase is going to be amazing and will make the mode more of a grind. It was too easy to turn into an arcade freak within two years and I actually had to just sit on points because I didn't want to hit 80 HR every year. I love the strategy this adds, especially with the cost to simply maintain the attributes as well. Fantastic steps to make this more of a true RPG within a sports game.

Plus, I love how getting rid of the goals means I don't have to put points to something I don't want to do. Like if I want to just put my points towards my power and a couple others, I can do that and it won't affect me getting called up because I didn't do the goals. Come on May 6...

I agree I love the removal of the goal system and love that you can now be called up at anytime and not have to wait for advancement period.

So one thing that is out this year due to the draft is being able to force your player into a specific organization right? That'll change the way I play a little because I would either choose my favorite team (Braves) or an organization that is in need of my position. Sounds like this year you gotta hope you don't end up deep in the depth chart behind MLB stars.

I think I read you can still choose your team, they may just draft you later than other teams would....if that makes sense.

You're right, I see that bullet now. Thanks.

• You can still choose your organization before the Draft. You will be taken by the team of your choice in the round you have been projected for.
