Re: MLB 09: The Show - Impressions

I have the game.

Please PM me with your requests because reading through this thread takes too long.

I don't play RTTS, so I won't be able to really help you.

I don't sim franchises, so not much I can offer there, but anything else, PM please.

Could you check out online and give us some info like in-game adjustments (up on directional pad), on line chatting and how it works, smoothness, gameplay in general. Thanks

Scott, I don't see a building behind homeplate. Man, the upper deck is awfully high. Can't see anything over the top of it. I'll post a couple pics in the pic thread in a bit.

Re: MLB 09: The Show - Impressions

why couldn't they have had a seperate spot for all those Hall of Fame players. It's a pain in the you know what having to scroll down all the Hall of Fame guys to get to the real Free Agents.

That is cool. It is high, so maybe it covers it. Maybe I could see it there was because I was on the very last role.

Yeah, that does seem odd. I'm guessing it's to make it easily accessable for creating legends rosters, but I could see where it would be a pain.

Hey check if they have the retire numbers on the left field. Or take a pic of left field.

i havent started a franchise yet but i'm hoping those guys aren't available to sign. That'd be the dumbest thing ever. Last thing i need is to have to pitch to Babe Ruth.

I think they confirmed with the devs and community leaders that once franchise is started, any unsigned legends disappear and are replaced by generics.

Thankfully you only have to do it once.

Skywalker1...Roster control is a little different this year, but you can achieve the same results as last year. 40 man makes it logistically a little longer to do. To put Manny from FA to ML....

Go to ROSTER CONTROL

scroll down to LA

Go to PLAYER MOVEMENT

I swapped Manny for Eddy Cramm (who I believe is a dev, sorry Eddy)

ACCEPT ROSTER CHANGE

Go to MANAGE ROSTER

You'll see you have 26 men on your ML roster

I dropped Jason Repko from ML to minors

Press SQUARE to AUTO FIX lineups (this actually worked well, as it took Manny off the bench and put him in the third slot)

Then SAVE your roster so that you can use this roster with Manny on it when you start your franchise.
