I got moved to CF and started getting defense points. However, I got kicked in the grapes and my excitement ended.
They said I'm now a CF and they loved what they saw. Why is this bad? Because when they switched me, they asked if I wanted to change my archetype, lol. The Ballhawk is the obvious choice Because of the speed.
Well, I don't want to be that type player, so I settled for a compromise and changed to defensive canon. Get a little more defensive help and keep my hitting.
Guess what...my coach told me that archetype was for LF or RF, and by choosing it I would hurt my development, LMAO!
The whole point of these changes to RTTS, was to let you be the type of player you want to be, and within the first month and a half of my first season, I'm being forced to be something I don't want to be.
After this happened, I started over. What does"it will hurt your development," mean? I didn't want to sink hours and hours of playing and grinding to find out.
In my humble opinion, San Diego Studios put caps on the game incorrectly. They should have let players decide where to put the limits. I don't want to bunt, steal, and be an amazing fielder, so I set my caps low for them. I want an okay arm, so I set my caps accordingly. I want to be a fast power guy....attribute caps set accordingly.
They could have given limits like, you only get 3 areas you can reach 99, two at 80, three at 75, etc etc.
In the end we develop like they have it set up based on play, but we don't get strong armed into not being able to be who we really want.
