Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

I believe you are correct.
I just tried the same thing.

Now....the CPU is putting guys on the block and OFFERING trades...except I'M the one getting the offers(for ALL teams). If I don't like it...I turn it down. It's kind of like a commissioner overlord mode!

What they say in those roster threads is true...KNIGHT IS GOD!!!

P.S. forgot to add great find!!! I am really liking this 30 team control so many options, when everything is ironed out with franchise bugs.....WOW will these be great.

Also...
Here is something that actually makes this bug a little "nice".

I took control of all 30 teams....I gave my profile to the Mets...left the rest NO PROFILE....went to GLOBAL options(which is what the NO PROFILE teams will follow)....and set everything EXCEPT trades to AUTO.
Now....the CPU is putting guys on the block and OFFERING trades...except I'M the one getting the offers(for ALL teams). If I don't like it...I turn it down. It's kind of like a commissioner overlord mode!
I'm still playing around with it...but no trades have been made this way w/o my authorization so far.
One thing I did notice...teams get desperate and put the player on the trading block repeatedly...as if screaming "LOOK WHO I HAVE ON THE BLOCK!"
Sometimes testing is fun.

Sounds like a damn good find and an excellent way to avoid the trades issue so many have been complaining about. I have to ask though, is there any downside to this at all, in your opinion of course? It seems like it would solve it all, no need to consistently check the pending trades, no need to worry about the CPU making dumb roster moves etc.

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

I dont know if anyones mentioned yet but when i start playing a game in franchise all my settings reset to default. Also I've noticed that when i hit select and look at my batters stats it shows the left power is really low no matter what batter im using, im not sure if this actually affects the left power but its something to check out, and this isnt all in franchise mode though it also happens in exhibition and online. Well thanks for listening hope that helps you fix whatevers wrong.Oh and i have been using the yankees if that matters.

I'm still looking.
At first offer...I was so disappointed(unwarranted)...as I thought the offer was 2 players from DET to my Mets...they were two players from Seattle or somewhere...so I'm thinking that the trades were done "behind my back".....then I saw the team on top of the trade box and realized what was happening.....and it was a GOOD thing!
Can some other guys try this?....and post if anything is a downside to this.
So far to me...it looks like the best of both worlds...controlling trading for everyone...but STILL getting the CPU to offer trades.
Add this to possibly fixing some of the contracts and we could have a workable franchise to use right away.

Yeah, it almost seems too good to be true. So, let me make sure Im understanding correctly, but you have trading set to auto for everyone besides your own team using the "no profile" approach and yet the teams are still proposing trades but now all of them are up to you to either approve or deny? If thats the case then I almost hope they dont fix it as this would be perfect for what I want to do.

No..

My team...METS...set to my METS profile(which is everything MANUAL)
Every other team set to NO PROFILE...which will then use the GLOBAL options(which you set after you see your goals screen)...there I have everything AUTO .....EXCEPT TRADES...that is set to MANUAL.

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

Any word on when that patch is gonna be out, I wanna start my franchise lol

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

Okay, if I'm understanding this (the discussion has gotten significantly longer in the time it's taken me to go to the gym and cook dinner), taking control of all 30 teams and letting the other 29 do their thing for the most part works because you can go in and reverse anything you think is wack for the other teams.

Is that right?

It's obviously not ideal, but that's not so bad of a thing, imo. I can live with that.

Edit: Knight posted the answer while I was typing . . . nevermind. And thanks.

You paid $60 to live with a bug? lol.... I love this game but this release of MLB 10 is not on par with less popular titled games.

One downside is that if you want to do fantasy draft you have to pick for every team unless you know a way around that.

Agreed. This is like amateur hour with the fatal flaws that got through.

LOL, apologies, thats what I meant as obviously auto would defeat the purpose of the entire thing. The setup they are using with the multiple profiles and assigning them to different teams is really going unnoticed and it really is a big deal imo. Basically Im going to run a Dodgers franchise, select all 30 teams, have my Dodgers set with my profile and the rest set with no profile while changing the global settings to auto everything minus trades and we should be good. I understand that there are issues right now with the game and that these work arounds wont work for everyone but they really did make this game extremely customizable it appears.

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

Even using AUTO FIX with INJURIES on....good to go!
Lost in all of this......I haven't seen it mentioned...but how great is it that they have players being signed off the FA list...and releasing players mid season?
I love to see movement in the league.
I might be able to get a nice test franchise going now!

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

Knight I need your help!!!

What do I set things to I want to control the Brewers in a franchise with only me controlling everything.

I want to control and set trades, releases, injuries, rotations and lineups, pretty much everything in my control.

What would I do to get this?

Thanks so much!!!

Hey Knight ... will this fix rectify the waiver nonsense happening. ie Big Papi and pooholes getting waived ... I guess this is more for the potential bug to be fixed, but still ...

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

Hey guys! I dont know if this was addressed already but in regards to the Tampa Bay Rays issue. I definitely do think the problem is with Tropicana Field because i have played two games against the Rays as the visiting team at a different ball park and there have been NO freezing issues, so hopefully its just the park.
