As for injuries, I'm 10 games in, and so far I've only had 1 injury. My injury slider is at 15, so that seems good to me.

I'm having a blast with this game now that I have a franchise going. And online play is great since they fixed the lag. I played 3 games in a row last night and had to force myself to quit playing. I liked it before the patch, but now I'm loving it.

I just gave the game a rent. I had the game before and was getting pretty good games on allstar. I just played a game was up 12-1 after 4 innings and shut it off. I dont know if its just because ive been playing the other game and that game is so hard or what. I really want to like this game, because of the hit variety and walks i cant seem to get in the other game. The patch seemed to smooth out the game play a ton, but its too easy now?

Overall the game seems good. The graphics still aren't great and player models and stances are off, but the gameplay seems solid. It seems like they really smoothed out the pace and fielding and everything seems to work together now. I'm not seeing those weird animations so much. Is anyone else finding it too easy though??

I'm not seeing less hr's at all. I'm killing the ball if its anywhere near the plate. I'll try legend and see how that goes.

I still make more line drive outs than the CPU by a wide margin, not as bad as before. Overall, I am very pleased with the new patch. There are still some things that need to be fixed: using classic pitching puts a cap on how fast you can throw a two-seam fastball, 95 mph, while the CPU can throw 99. The game summary needs to be fixed. All in all, I think the patch is a success story that needs a few rewrites.

i love auto fielding even though in the 2 games after the patch my dodgers have not even had a bobble much less a throwing error neither has the giants. i hope i get some kind of errors soon! LOL!

Are there any online issues with this game? I'm thinking about picking this up soon and I'd be spending most of my time in that mode.

I'm hitting HRs fine, its just the CPU rarely hits them at all. I'll go many games in a row with out giving one up. It was fine, to me anyway, before the patch.

This is the smoothest online baseball game there is. After the patch, there is now hardly any lag. It's a lot of fun online.

Have you tried turning up AI power? I have it at 80 and they hit at least one or two homers against me per game, sometimes more. Seems pretty good to me.

I swear the patch seemed to open up more commentary from Kruk. I might be imagining things but he seems to be saying more things I haven't heard before.

I saw there was an injury bug thread, is there really a injury bug?
