Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

thanks Knight,

whats your thought on a potential manager roster update? Not sure if they have ever done that before.

They have....but they would need to get a contract with those managers.

I don't know why some guys don't sign?

For me...just let us edit fake guys...hire/fire at will at anytime...and problem solved!

This would totally fix the problem for me. Agreed!

Is Victor Martinez on the Tigers roster now that he is going to miss the 2012 season due to injury?

Can't we control all the injuries in season/franchise mode if we want? So we could create a year long injury for V-Mart in 2012?

Don't know about franchise stuff, but for the regular exhibition rosters, wouldn't he just be sent to A ball or something?

Is the Guess Pitch option back where you just guess the pitch and not location?

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

I have a question regarding RttS. Last year I abandoned this game and almost threw it away because of the awful managing. After a few years in RttS, catchers on all teams always batted 3rd and SP managing was insane. My 3-time Cy Young all-99-stats SP had the leash of a rookie who got called up from AA even with manager hook set to max leeway. If we were up by 2 in the 7th or later and I gave up so much as an infield single, I'd immediately get pulled. No mound visit, straight to bullpen (which then immediately blew the game). Any idea from anyone who's done RttS if these issues still exist?

Edit: Also, are the Red Sox the 1927 Yankees again in this year's game? That slight issue last year where in every game mode they were the best team with all their players having the best stats year after year after year got slightly annoying.

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

I really don't understand how only 7- 20 SP are considered acceptable for an MLB draft in the Show12. It just doesn't compute mathmatically, 30 teams with access to only 7 SP's. Please Knight, talk me off the ledge..........P

There are only 3-4 rounds in the draft and it only consists of players that are replacing retired players per position. It's really not a hard concept to understand.

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

Ok so 2 Questions:

1. Does anyone know if you can go back to the classic or original or whatever you call it fielding, hitting, pitching and base running? I hate analog and what nothing to do with it.

2. I see some people talking about a 5g and 10g install to the hard drive. What does that mean? What is the difference between the 2?

Thanks

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

Are players like Scott Podsednik and Hector Luna who have MLB Experiece but didn't play in the majors last year in the Phillies minors? If not, there are they represented by any fake players that have the same years experience?

I'm fairly certain that once a player has MLB experience, he will always be available to appear in the game.

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Q&A Thread

As far as glitches goes....like Knight said... really nothing. And trust me I can usually find them. ;-) Don't want to jinx it too much. Maybe a few small logic tweaks I'd suggest, but looking tight.

I'm still sleeping with one eye open for the next two weeks though.

I don't have the game yet but I can answer this just based off what I've read in this thread

1. Everything that was available in 11 is available in 12, plus the new modes. So yes, you can change everything back to classic.

2. The only difference is with the load times. 5GB load times are a bit longer than the 10GB download load times.

Thanks Man. 1 more question though should I download the 5gb because I only 17gb left on my hard drive?

Yes. Great question. This was very annoying. I recently played RttS as SP and threw 8 1/3 perfect game innings and they pulled me just because I hit 100 pitches. Was so pissed.

Is Jerome Williams the Angels 5th starter? If not, is he on the team at all?
