MLB 09: The Show Patch Released 4/27/09 - Impressions and Discussion Here

Re: MLB 09: The Show Patch Released 4/27/09 - Impressions and Discussion Here

Single best post I have read in this massive thread, not pertaining to possible user end fixes.

I don't care about SCEA, or their 'feelings'. I enter into a consumer relationship with them, after that, its over. That very premise, rules out a sense of entitlement. I mean some of the arguments here about not being vocal when the game is obviously flawed, are mind boggling.

no wonder we have very little power as consumers any longer. hell, we buy cars from other countries that still understand how the game is played, because we obviously dont in this country.

"the game is good", so ****ing what. Its also broken. For me, not having an accurate schedule for my team, equals broken. Just as crashes and lineups. I shouldn't have to jump through hoops, unless advertised.

I'm glad you made this post.

Why? Because a large portion of you fail to realize that this is not the support forum for all issues MLB09:The Show.

There's a few developers here openly discussing their game on a 3rd party forum littered with a bunch of gamers, young and old, who love sports. Everyone here wants an answer to most of the questions posed, but in no way do you deserve an answer here at OS. Never.

If you have an issue with the way a company is handling something, take it up with the company.

I'd hate to lose the developer's presence because somehow a place where they used to hang out and talk about a game a large majority of us enjoy playing became a venue for consumer backlash when they felt they had been wronged.

Seriously, can we PLEASE just discuss the patch. No more bickering, complaining about other posters, etc.

That's not what this thread is for.

If this continues, infractions will be handed out, I don't care which side you are on.

Re: MLB 09: The Show Patch Released 4/27/09 - Impressions and Discussion Here

so we should ignore dumb posts but then go behind the back and call said poster out? Wow

Just like this post? You make a decent point then you step on it with an attack on another member. Where do you think this is going to go now?

You guys are right. I didn't help the cause or my own logic. For that I apologize. And CB, the second half of my long post was not directed solely at you - it was more of a general statement. I should have been more clear. And yes, my comparison was extreme but that's all that's happening around here right now. People are frustrated and blowing things out of proportion and that includes me. It's time to step away for a bit.

for the Astros, Tejada was batting second.

TERRIBLE!

I keep seeing this complaint. People, Tejada has 85 at bats this season. 41 of them are hitting 2nd. Know your facts before you complain.

Yeah, I caught up AFTER I posted that.

Carry-on.

Glad you're alright R.

I had to restart my franchise yesterday after the patch. I think the problem is the added game for the Dodgers and Padres on April 9th. I looked at the schedule for both teams, and on the Dodgers page, it said the Dodgers won 1-0, but on the Padres page it said the Padres won 6-1. I was able to move through all of the screens fine, but when I simulated to see how long it would work, it crashed on April 29th. Luckily I was only 7 games in, so it was pretty easy to simulate and get back to the same record I had before.

So....is it 100% certain that deleting all save files and game data utility before downloading the patch will result in none of the issues thats been brought up?

I know Doc did something like this and I think a few others, but there's been so much said and so many different variations/opinions expressed that I was wondering.

Has anyone still experienced the franchise crash, no replay or no flashback issue? Maybe it worked itself out already? Im getting ready to re-start my franchise (with the patch downloaded) and am a bit skeptical on if it will work. Im currently tweaking Knights rosters and dont want all that work to be for nada.

What are the new issues created by the patch if you start a new franchise with the most recent Sony rosters? I started a new franchise last night and didn't see any problems. (didn't check for the post replay show but I always skip that anyways.

Man that was well said. It's so true. I like this site because the guys/gamers around here help make the gaming experience better. And it's cool that the devs come to discuss it. ANYHOW

PATCH RELATED: My replays are now gone too??!! They were there my first 2 games or so after the patch but last night they were gone, sort of. The batter was there but no else LOL. The ball just kind of squiggled around the field as the replay played. LOL! I was bustin up.
Quite comical I must say.

So far all I can tell is no replays/highlights. 6 games in to a fresh franchise BTW.

It's all good and I figured as much. Just wanted it to be clear to everyone.

Trying to figure out why the post game highlights aren't showing.....

I deleted the game utility folder like Dr Ursus said to do.

So the game and patch had to be reloaded. It did not work.

Here's what I noticed.....

At some point during the game, around the 7th inning, the replay vault stops recording. Its says NONE for replays in the 7th, 8th and 9th inning.

At that point, you will not see any post game highlights. If you go into the replay vault in the 4th inning for example, you can review the highlites. Once it stops recording highlited in the 7th inning, the only highlite you will see at the end of the game is the last play with no fielders and sometimes no batter on the field.

Here's the other thing, If I play 3 innings or so and then fast forward to the 9th and play the 9th inning, I do get Post game High Lites.

So its almost as if the replay vault is "running out of space".

Is there any way to make sure Russell or someone sees this because it will probably just get muddled up inbetween a host of bickering, but I think it may help them isolate this problem.

Thanks.

No one could say with any confidence within two days of the patch and the information given is so inconsistent. Overall it appears people who were continuing pre patch franchises are having the most problems. Russell mentioned releasing an announcement today- wait for that.

thanks for the response fist and you could PM him the info. But I do believe that he'll read it because he stated that he read the entire thread yesterday, so I have no reason to believe that when he hops back on that he won't do the same this time around.
