ERRORS! 2k....ERRORS IN BASEBALL!! GEEZ!!!!! Errors have decided many, many, many baseball games. Just. Wow.....do yourself a favor....hire you a couple of college kids that like baseball and have them play games. ....and fire your whole QA department.

I don't think they forgot. They implemented a brand new fielding system and just didn't have time to do it. Which is still inexusable. I like MyPlayer mode, but they shouldn't have even touched that concept until they had the baseball part of the game under control.

ABSOLUTELY stupid of them not to tell their customers that they fixed big issues, especially considering their current PR problems. The first thing they fixed that was NOT in the notes was the double switch issue. You can now leave your pinch hitter in the game, and there is an option for both "sub pitcher" and "double switch". I think they tried to sneak this one in. You could NOT do this before, but they tried to make it seem like it was there all along. Why they wouldn't at least take credit for fixing a big bug is beyond me. Second, they fixed the issue with spring training stats. Your 2010 spring training stats were being added to the 2009 regular season. For instance, if you club 3 homers with Albert Pujols is spring training in your new franchise, he would be number one on the list for most homers with 50 in 2009. He would also be credited with about 180 games played in his player stats from 2009. this is no longer the case. Third, there is rumor going around that generated rookies no longer cause franchise mode to freeze. I haven't confirmed this. WHY wouldn't 2K take credit for this. Surely they couldn't have fixed this by accident.

If someone can confirm the generated rookies no longer causing franchise mode freezes, that would be great. If that's true, I will keep the game. If not, it's getting traded in.

Bill Buckner disagree with you.

And don't blame QA for no errors. This was a design decision and falls directly on the main guys.

I believe that's been fixed. I tried it and it worked, as have others. Progression is still hopelessly and terribly broken. But at least it won't freeze on you. So now instead of an unplayable franchise, now it's just an awful franchise.

Haven't had a chance to try out the new patch yet, but is the generic bald headed guy still there when you call up a player or did they fix that? Thanks in advance!

After playing a dozen games with the patch, I would like to thank 2K for tightening core gameplay. The tuning of wall catches, fielder arms and speed, pitching, and tagging logic have saved this game for me.

I am not a huge franchise guy, so I can only speak for what I play and it's nice to enjoy this game in the manner.

I agree. I noticed a HUGE difference in the core gameplay when I played my first post patch game last night. VERY happy with this patch. It made a good game better.
