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

Anyone know when the SCEA team gets back?

Id really love to see patch by opening day to get started with my chise at that time.

Game is great but needs some major things fixed

sorry. It's gonna be a while. Though some of the suggestions that I've found on OS about controlling all 30 teams, using separate profiles, putting trades on manual, etc., have really saved franchise for me and I'm having a blast.

Wow, Im patient and all and fully expected this to be out sometime in early to mid April but the idea that the patch might not hit until the end of April or later really leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Waiting for Knights rosters is one thing but waiting on this is entirely different. I will continue to use the 30 teams setup and hope that once the patch hits we wont have to restart.

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

Thats very disapointing. Its said when a company can charge what these companies charge for games and there not right out of the box let alone the consumer having to wait forever to get a patch to fix things that should not have to be fixed in the first place. Its just not right.

This has shed a different light on my franchise, theres no way i can afford to wait until what sounds like at least May to start, no way at all if i want to get at least a full season or more in, so the plan at the moment is to wait for the OS Full Minors (work has now started on these) and then start up my franny, the patch will more than likely still be fine on existing frannys so ill go with that.

I wanted to wait but with work not even starting until the end of April, theres no way i can justify waiting that long sadly.

Ill go with the workarounds to stop any crazy trades and just enjoy the game for what it is.

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

I am glad I have changed my habits for buying sports games, I would be a little ticked off if I had the game and had to wait that long for a patch. I will just wait until the patches come out then buy the game after that. I refuse to buy any more sports games until patches are out. You dont have to deal with the bugs and glitches and by then you can get the game for $20.00 less than release day and it is completed.

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

I am 3 years deep into my franchise and have only seen one weird thing happen... I am the Yankees, and somehow we made a trade that I didn't have anything to do with. We traded a few minor leaguers to the Marlins for Chris Coghlan.

I didnt notice many CPU trades, but I did see Beckett and Ortiz get traded to the Mariners for some minor league nobody, during the middle of a pennant race. That was odd. Needless to say, I caught the sox and passed them after the deal...

You've been here since 2005. It's not like this is uncommon in this industry. Have you never played a sports game in the 4+ years you've been registered? Last year's patch, between testing and waiting for approval, wasn't approved until April 27th.

None of this should be shocking or "new" to a large % of you.

I've followed suit this year. Like Pared said below this shouldn't be of any suprise to many of us here. I have only been around a few years and know that I should wait to purchase until it all gets fixed up. Plus I'll be able to pick up a fixed, complete game for a bargain. Win win.

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

Right.

If you feel THAT strongly about it, stop buying games on release and force sports game companies to fix their QA. Don't buy it first, then complain later.

Be proactive, not reactive.

It's not like you guys don't know this cycle. Heck, people start looking for things to be patched on release day...

Exactly. I for one still think The Show is by far the best baseball game made. Am I disappointed in some of the issues? Of course.
But the issues will get addressed and I'm still enjoying the game and having fun.

yes.

And because of how well SCEA has prev done with their baseball games (nothing really compares)...it's turned into an unintentional monopoly.

what else are you going to do?

well, I know next yr SCEA won't get my money in March....they'll get it later in the year.

I wish I had your resolve- that's obviously the best way to go to save money, time, and frustration...
