Re: ***Official Bugs Thread Part 3***

What game mode did the bug happen in? (Front End, RTTS, Franchise, Season, Gameplay, Online, etc....)

RTTS, with auto save/load on.

Whats the Bug? How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it?

This bug allows a single scheduled match to be played repeatedly. After my player suffered an injury in a July 10th game, I chose to go on the disabled list when asked. I then exited RTTS mode. Upon reloading, choosing sim to next appearance resulted in the July 10th game being played again, with my player in the lineup. After re-playing the game, the injury notification screen appeared again and a second e-mail about the injury showed up in his inbox. This can be repeated (i.e. exit RTTS after the post-game autosave), allowing an indefinite number of replayings of the same match.

Individual stats accumulate over several instances of the match - no stats are lost or discarded. The teams cycle through their rotations with each instance, so the starters are not always the same. Players don't recover energy between instances, and the teams' W-L records do not change.

Can you recreate it? How often can the bug be reproduced?

I am able to play the July 10th match as many times as I want. Exiting MLB10 does not affect it. I have attached the RTTS save file in question as well as the settings file I use.

Re: ***Official Bugs Thread Part 3***

when i wanna play mlb 2010 it shows the makers of the game but before it gets to the intro video it stops and goes to a black screen and never loads the game...whats the problem???

[MatrixTN]

Re: ***Official Bugs Thread Part 3***

Mode
Any regular gameplay (RTTS in my case)

Bug
Video boards that show the team's lineup always show the player's primary position, not the position they are playing in the game. In my case, Jim Thome is playing 3B and Adam Dunn is playing DH, the board shows both of them plus Justin Morneau (playing 1B) as 1B.

How often?
Any game in any stadium with that video board (Trop for example) and using a player in a secondary position (or DH).

What game mode did the bug happen in? (Front End, RTTS, Franchise, Season, Gameplay, Online, etc....)

RTTS.

What's the Bug? How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it?

With the bases loaded and two out, the batter hit a ground ball to the right side of the infield. The first baseman was playing behind the bag and dove to his right to grab the ball, but before it reached him, the ball struck the runner going from first to second and changed direction. The runner made no attempt to avoid the ball, and all runners were safe on the play.

Because the ball had not passed any infielders before hitting the runner, this should have been ruled interference by rule 7.09(k).

Can you recreate it? How often can the bug be reproduced?

This was the first time I have seen it.

I just had this happen to me. Groundball hit the runner on 1st runner, who was in front of my fielder and no interference was called. Luckly the ball deflected towards my 2B who gunned the batter down, so I got one out.

All Modes.

What's the Bug? How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it?

Sometimes when crossing home plate the catcher does not make the tag even when the throw beats the runner by 7 steps.

Can you recreate it? How often can the bug be reproduced?

I can recreate this about half the time by not sliding.

All Modes.

In a 1st and 3rd situation. The runner from 1st steals, the catcher throws to 2nd, the runner from 3rd steals during the throw, middle infielder makes throw home, and the catcher never tags the runner crossing home.

Can you recreate it? How often can the bug be reproduced?

I can recreate this about 85% of the time. The catcher tagging system needs to be looked at and the 1st and 3rd logic needs to be addressed.

[rondoman]

If you are the catcher run towards the runner. This does help get the runner out.

Agreed, but the problem is the CPU catcher not making the tag.

Gameplay (Franchise)

Whats the Bug? How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it?

I didn't get a walk after four balls. I did a check swing on ball four (3-2 count). The pitch came inside so my batter backed out of the way of the pitch but it also did the umpire check swing animation. The announcer said "and that's ball four" but Lee stayed at bat. I managed to get it up to ball six before I finally got a hit. In the box score Lee was credited with a BB and an RBI (when he got the hit a runner scored).

In maybe 100 games played this is only the second time I've seen this happen. I'm pretty sure I posted this problem before on here, but figured I'd post it again because I wasn't sure what triggered it.

I posted this bug in post #132 in this thread. (in my case it was in 2 player offline season mode)

What game mode did the bug happen in? (Front End, RTTS, Franchise, Season, Gameplay, Online, etc....) Exhibition, Franchise (may be other's, but not online)

Whats the Bug? How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Runners on 1st and 3rd or just a runner on 3rd and the runner on 3rd breaks to try and steal home, but before the pitcher delivers the pitch he steps off and attempts to pick the runner off by throwing to third and baserunner gets caught in a rundown.

Can you recreate it? How often can the bug be reproduced?
Pretty frequently I've seen it almost whenever I get a runner on 3rd.

Are you pressing L2 to steal (accidently pressing it?) or using guess pitch? On the latter, guessing the primary pitch (X) and to the left could also cue the runner. I never guess in that fashion nor have I had that happen myself.

Re: ***Official Bugs Thread Part 3***

#31 - Meter/Windup from stretch glitch - it can happen as ANY pitcher (SP or CP), either you or another pitcher, just recently happened to my RTTS CP. Again, it only occurs in RTTS when pitching from the stretch.

This happened to me yesterday. First time I'd seen it. There was literally nothing I could have done, other then pretend Posada had temporarily forgotten the rules of baseball. That, or momentarily lost his vision.

What a coincidence! I just experienced the exact same problem as this user. By way of background, I'll outline my specifics below should they be required.

Franchise - early in my second season

Whats the Bug? How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it?

Hiroki Kuroda was pitching to Chase Headley in the top of the 4th inning in a scoreless game at Dodger Stadium. Pitch count went: Ball, ball, strike, ball, strike, ball (check swing) - first base umpire said he didn't swing, so by rights, Headley should walk. The count at the top of the screen read 4-2, yet Headley was still at bat. He grounded the next pitch straight at Kuroda who threw him out at first (in hindsight, I should have intentionally walked him out of fairness).

This is the only time I have ever seen this bug in over a season of my franchise (I have not simmed a game yet either).
