With the rosters being completed, I was finally able to start a RTTS and a Franchise.

Created a 2nd baseman and got drafted by the Mariners, sitting in AA right now.
Then also started a Franchise last night with the Rangers.

Pitcher in RTTS is now in the Show. How in the frick do I get a new pitch? I built him with Syndergaard's mold so I just have the 3 pitches. Am I stuck?

Anyone else having issues with the player animations in RTTS? I can't get the swing finish I want and it keeps changing my running and homerun animations back to default every few games.

Go to training and press a button that brings up a menu to add a new pitch. I'm pretty sure it's square, but it says which button towards the bottom.

Edit: it's triangle

Thanks, it was triangle. The circle change has been a devastating addition

Just bought a ps4 so I could play the show a few days ago so I'm a relative noob but I've gotten the hang of it pretty quickly. Just been doing diamond dynasty and some occasional online games but thought I'd see if there was any online franchise options for me in here or if y'all have already started

I've never done one before.

Every time I check the subreddit though someone is looking for players though if you don't care if you play with randos.

I have a 3rd baseman, drafted by the Brewers. Spent my whole first season at AA, then right as playoffs were about to begin, I got called up to AAA. On the last day of the season. Got a hit, drove in a run, and stole a base. Season over. AAA team was in last place.

Second season I made the roster out of Spring Training, pinch hit for the first month, then got traded to the Rangers. Won the batting title, but not ROY, lost in the play in game. Third season got traded to the Red Sox.

Got pretty lucky with my starting pitcher in Detroit organization. Got called up to the big club after 8 starts in AA. Playing on dynamic put pretty much topped off at Hall of Fame. You have to be damn salty to compete as a 78 overall on Legend.

Yep, I had to drop it down to All-Star+ and slow down the difficulty increase. I got called up in mid June year one and made it to legend with the Phillies early year two as a 72. Was getting rocked. I think my record through my first 20 major league starts was like 2-15. If we are looking like we won't make the play-offs come June I will probably ask for a trade.

Been lucky with Detroit honestly. I'm in 2018 and Miggy and J. Upton still going strong so I usually get pretty good run support. I've noticed the strike zone is EXTREMELY hitter friendly. I get maybe 25% of calls on the black so it's impossible to nibble at the corners. Maddux would not play this game.

You know the strike zones differ with which ump is behind the plate, right?

I had wondered about this because of the comments the announcers make. Any insight on how to find out who the umpire is and a scouting report on them? Sounds crazy talking about a video game that way but I will do it if it makes a difference

I think the name of the ump is somewhere in game pause menu. Not exactly sure.

I also haven't seen a list about tendencies yet, kind of surprised about that lol

I've had pitches with the full ball inside the zone that have been called balls. And if the ball splits the corner perfectly, you get MAYBE 1/4 called a strike. But I digress, that's been my one and only gripe with an otherwise amazing game.

This truly is an awesome game. I have no complaints thus far, other than getting shite from packs and daily rewards
