Re: MLB 09: The Show Mini-Patch (1.07) Released 5/19/09 - Impressions and Discussion

I love this game, SCEA and everyone associated with this game. Period.

That being said - I REALLY don't understand the logic here. The lineup issues and more importantly the DL issue are huge obstacles to the enjoyment of franchise - yet the SCEA team spent time and energy addressing the replay issue? I just don't understand the priorities here. I am at a point in my Franchise that if I loose just a couple more players to the DL - I may have to restart my franchise because I won't have enough people to field a lineup..I could care less weather replay works or not. (and it worked just fine for me by the way - pre and post patch) I am dissapointed - really dissapointed.

That's all I got.

I'm venturing to say that this is NOT an easy fix. The code is probably tied to the AUTO FIX lineups and probably will take some major studying and is not just fixed with the flip of a switch, unfortunately.

Rawdeal, if you feel like it try this:

Next time you play and it starts an in-game highlight (not just an in-game replay, but one where the MLB the Show logo comes on, and they "flash back", press X to skip it. Do it everytime an in-game highlight comes on, especially the very last time one comes on. Then, when the game ends press X to skip through everything until you get to the part with the post game highlights.

If you still don't have any problems, then you don't need the patch.

In my testing, it seemed like skipping the very last in-game highlight/flashback was the most important for the replays not working. I had skipped earlier in-game highlights and it did not seem to affect the post game highlights, but the last one skipped always did. For the longest time, I thought I had no problem with highlights either since I watched everything usually.

Post-patch #3 (mini-patch), the highlight problem appears to be fixed.

im about to play so ill give that a try right now.

The replay fix was probably a quick tiny bit of code to update. Therefore, it was easy to take care of and didn't require a lot of man-hours (and hence money) to correct. Remember, SCEA is not going to allocate a great deal of funding to continue working on an already released game. It's just not financially feasible to do so.

Fair enough. You guys make valid points - and I think I can come down off the ledge now.

Correct flame away lol

Guy seems like a jerk here. People wanting to have issues fixed on a game we spent 60 bucks on and he is laughing at people taunting them to complain about it.

That's hardly the case, if you followed the patch 1.06 thread you probably would have realized that. The thread was full of petty little attacks against Sony or anyone who dared to claim The Show 09 was a great game despite it's flaws. The quote from Russell you highlighted was making light of the inevitable attacks that were likely to follow, based on the previous thread.

Ok. That is cool. People would not flame if they would fix a few minor errors. This is a great game. I love it regardless of a few errors, mainly the lineup glitch. Traded in my 360 to get a PS3 because I missed this game so much from the Ps2 days.

That's the difference between you and a flamer, a few minor bugs/irritations doesn't mean Sony is trying to rip you off. What most flamers likely don't realize, is that by the time Sony *could* fix the remaining few bugs in the game, we'd be looking at an August/Sept patch and even the flamers would then have to admit they wouldn't wait that long.

Word on the street is yes.

I think there are major bugs now with the new patch...

Well the highlight is fixed BUT the walkup does not work and neither does the HR celebration. I had to click them off, go out and save the change then go back in to click them back on, go back out to save again. CPU and myself has also been getting hits after hits and hitting bombs after bombs as if the game setting is defaulting to rookie, 6 innings so far and 20 hits per side!!!! The setting is supposed to load with the franchise and I don't think it is doing that anymore....

Anyone has the same problems and how do I roll back to 1.06?

Profile and User Settings are the first things I load when I boot up because I don't use autosave. I've never had problems with walkups (only use them in RttS and sometimes it doesn't play but that's periodic) or homer celebrations so don't know what to tell you there.

As for the latter, I believe (in XMB) you go to Game Data Utility and delete the corresponding file. Reboot after disconnecting the system from the network as you will be forced to re-download the patch otherwise. I've never tried this as I've had hardly any problems so someone would have to confirm that.

I do the same thing. No problems here.

Nice job.

Thanks to all involved.

Oh dear. I've never had any problems pre-patch or to the 1.6 update. Now downloaded 1.7 and my RTTS crashes around 20th November straight back to the XMB. Pi**ed off big time ...

Same thing, no autosave, load up settings first= no problems here.
