Re: ***Official MLB 11 The Show Bugs Thread***

This may or may not be a bug...

Mode
RTTS

Bug
I came up to bat with a runner on 2nd and grounded to the 3B who tried to tag out the runner going for third but was unsuccessful. The play was ruled a fielder's choice but I believe it shouldn't have been; as I understand it, the runner has to be out for a FC ruling and he wasn't. Game log notes the play: reached first on a fielder's choice.

How often?
No idea, first time.

And another one...

Mode
RTTS, any regular gameplay at Primo Yards

Bug
The scoreboard shows the batter's primary position, not the position they are playing in the game. In my case, I'm a CF but spot starting at RF but the scoreboard shows me as CF when batting. In the same game, a RF on the team pinch hit for the pitcher and was shown as RF on the scoreboard. This goes ditto for DHs as well.

How often?
Any game at Primo Yards and a player is not playing his primary position (or DH/pinch hitting).

I think this is a bug because it doesn't seem like it is WAD.

Whats the bug?

The "Caught Stealing" music plays at the wrong times. If the cpu executes a hit and run for example, the "Caught Stealing" music will play. It's kind of insulting, especially when mine is the hook from Michael Jackson's "Beat it". My home fans do not appreciate this.

Note: It does play at the correct time also at least.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....)

Franchise

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?

Yes i can recreate it, happens everytime that the cpu tries to steal a base but something different happens.

How often can the bug be reproduced?

Anytime

Do you have video or pictures?

No but i can provide video on request.

Whats the bug?
Coaches box dissapears in the rain, just like a chalk baseline. I don't believe these lines are made of chalk, they shouldn't dissapear in the rain.

Re: ***Official MLB 11 The Show Bugs Thread***

I haven't looked through this thread, so please disregard if this is a repeat post. I don't want to look at bugs at all, but feel this should be posted.

Whats the bug?
Prompted to change CPU pitcher while warming up pitchers in my (user) bullpen. Wouldn't let me out of the bullpen until CPU pitcher was changed, which I couldn't do. Had to quit the game.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in?
Franchise Mode

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?
It was the bottom of the 7th inning at Tropicana Field - I was Rays vs Red Sox. Lackey was on the mound for the Sox. I push quick menu button (down on D-Pad) to access bullpen to warm an additional pitcher for the 8th inning. I already had Wade warming up and I was going warm up Farnsworth. I tried the following to get the prompt to dissapear: Cancel, Sit Down all pitchers, Schedule to put in game & warm up starting pitchers. I have not attempted to recreate this.

How often can the bug be reproduced?
Unknown - it's only happened once.

Do you have video or pictures?

I agree with this, in fact it has happened to me three times now in the last few days (since the patch was released so I'm not sure if it's related but I never had the problem before).

What's happening in my case is that I'll have a pitcher getting tired so I use quick menu to access the bullpen and start warming up pitchers (note that I do NOT use mound visit at this time). Then if my pitcher gives up a hit or walk, that's when I like to use mound visit to buy time for the relievers to warm up. The problem is on this first mound visit, I am forced to take out the pitcher and put in somebody who isn't even warm yet. The last time it happened I was playing as the Brewers in an exhibition game at home and was getting pitchers warmed up in the top of the 7th inning with Yovani Gallardo on the mound.

Not sure, but it seems like if you try to access the bullpen two times in the same half-inning regardless of method, it reads it as two mound visits. I also want to re-iterate that this never happened to me before a few days ago and it's now happened three times.

Re: ***Official MLB 11 The Show Bugs Thread***

This might not be a bug (a feature?), but it is one of the most talked about issues in game play for CPU vs CPU/MOM players, so please let me report it here. General consensus seems that this is really the only part of the game that is quite off from real life which we cannot adjust by sliders.


Whats the bug?

The game produces too many wild pitches due to catcher dropping balls.

I've racked up about 400 game worth of stats to adjust sliders in order to produce most realistic stats results. With the pitcher consistency slider at default (with default SCEA roster, playing different teams, etc.), I get the following stats:

420 G, 61 HBP, 328 WP, 3 PB

In terms of per game per team numbers (the 2007-2010 MLB ave in parenthesis), we have

0.15 HBP (0.34), 0.78 WP (0.32), 0.01 PB (0.06)

So in the game we see roughly half the number of HBP, much more than twice WP, and much less PB compared to real-life numbers.

A user in this thread:

http://www.operationsports.com/forum...post2042247576

appears to be successful in reducing WPs by some amount by editing catcher blocking ability and reaction ratings to max (99). This however is not very desirable as it requires numerous edits and we have to wash away the ability differences among catchers. Any way to recalibrate this part of game to produce less dropped balls by catcher...?


What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....)

Gameplay


How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?

This is a natural part of the game, but WPs happen too often.


How often can the bug be reproduced?

All games affected to varying extent.


Do you have video or pictures?

No pretty pictures, but I have numbers above.

Re: ***Official MLB 11 The Show Bugs Thread***

I am not sure if this is a bug, but in Franchise mode the ESPN style ticker displays HRs, doubles, and triples leaders. Where's the RBI and strikeout or ERA leaders? Is this in there or do I need to get farther in to season? I'm in early May.

Also, I all games at night seem to be clear skies. Is there dynamic weather at night?

I was hoping we would run the wrong way round all the way. Would've been a the funniest bug ever. Its not a game killer just a funny occurrence.

Re: ***Official MLB 11 The Show Bugs Thread***

Whats the bug?

Manager scolds me for getting caught stealing on a hit and run.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....)

RTTS

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?

I reach 1st base (via walk, single, error, doesn't matter) and am told via the base coach that it will be a hit and run. I proceed to steal as soon as the pitcher throws the ball, but my teammate fails to make contact with the pitch, thus allowing the catcher to throw to 2nd where I am tagged out.

After the game I get an email in my inbox from the manager warning me not to steal since my speed is too slow. Isn't the point of a hit and run to attempt to take off before contact? I can't control whether or not my CPU teammate will make contact or not, so it shouldn't punish me for following the base coach's sign.

How often can the bug be reproduced?

Every time the CPU batter fails to make contact with the ball. Has happened 4 times already in my RTTS over 3 seasons. It also has a 100% repro rate under these conditions.

Do you have video or pictures?

No

Re: ***Official MLB 11 The Show Bugs Thread***

Whats the bug?

Incorrect fan reactions (booing/cheering) for pitches.

What game mode did you experience the bug/glitch in? (Gameplay, RTTS, Franchise, Online, Front End, etc.....)

RTTS, could happen in other modes as well.

How did it happen or what did you do to trigger it? Can you recreate it?

I, or the CPU is up to bat in RTTS and will get a pitch just outside the zone which will be called a strike (or just inside and be called a ball), yet the fans will react with the opposite response. If I'm the home team and get the ball call even though it was a clear strike, they will boo instead of cheer and vice versa if it's a badly called strike.

How often can the bug be reproduced?

Seems to be random, but happens quite a bit to the point where I noticed it the first time it happened and every time since then. Out of 3 seasons of RTTS I'd say it happens in about 70% of the games I appear in (I'm a RF).

Do you have video or pictures?

No
