    PLAYER SAVES....these can still be transferred to a USB drive and moved anywhere at will.

    For whatever reason...it's franchise files that cannot be moved.
    What about season files? I'm not sure what modes are carried over from the MLB 10 to 11, but what exactly can we save and not save? There's no reason to lock up sliders, etc. Rosters and players probably can be kept in the vault, so those don't need to be backed up locally I suppose.

      I'd like to know this too...can you copy season files?

        Well there are hundreds of PS3 games that allow you to backup save files, and play them on a different system. When you load those files on a different system, meet the requirements for the applicable trophy, a message will pop up saying "You did not earn a trophy". Yes, there are exploits if the title does not disable trophies when playing someone elses save file, and only then is it an issue.

          I truly hope SCEA can do something about this. What I don't know, but hopefully something can be done.

          I know that the chances of something happening to my system aren't great, but not to have that added coverage of insurance in backing files.

          The only other thing I can think of, since you can't swap PS3 hard drives and the chances of doing a data utility transfer are slim since YLOD typically means the system won't come back on, is to do a backup utility transfer to an external hard drive.

          I don't know that will allow for copy protected files to transfer or not. I don't have an external HD to check.
          I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

          I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

            Back ups to external drives can only be applied to the system that backed it up.

            So sadly that is not an option either.

            Puzzling why Franchise file is like this, even if it was or the Challenge of the Week. Since it is Franchise.

              Agreed, a very bizarre situation, hopefully of course our PS3's dont die on us but if they do, with no way out in terms of backing up files, it would be absolutely gutting.

              Surely this could be changed with a quick-fix in a patch?

                Agreed. I typically have multiple pairs of saves for my franchise on the PS3 drive and then backed up on my PC. I've never had to use my backups, but you never seem to until you don't have them...lol.

                Hopefully something is figured out. Personally (and I'm not saying this is or should be an option) I'm willing to give up challenge of the week, trophies, whatever (if these are the actual reasons) to get backup ability back.

                  Bump.

                  Just incase it CAN be patched...

                    Would be nice if this was sorted out. And hopefully patched.

                    It upset people with GT5 when the PSN did it to that save, and so Polyphony patched the game and made it so you could back up your save.

                    With just as much investment in this game with play time in Franchise, it would be nice for some assurance of a back up, especially for those on old fatties with the "knock on wood" mentality.

                      That really is the biggest thing for me.

                      I put hundreds of hours of gameplay into my franchise, plus the dozens of hours managing rosters, lineups, etc... It would really be a shame to lose all of that over trophies, or Sony not wanting people to cheat them out of some 99 cent training points or something.

                          Oh yeah, I had forgotten about that. Maybe this won't be as big of an issue after all.

                              Will be great. But let's see how well it will save 22MB franchise files via cloud.

                              You think save times are long now, wait till your upload times for 22MB are in effect.

                              For smaller files I can see this as awesome. It works great on Steam, but larger files will be tested.

                                I could be totally off base but I remember reading it will be made available for PS+ Users.
