Yeah, as I said in another thread where "the closer" jumped all over me, you might want to look back at MLB 10 and 11. This dev team doesn't exactly have a great track record for fixing things, especially when it comes to online freezing.

In MLB 10 they broke more than they fixed (int walk bug turned into "pause glitch" every time you paused the game using START. This problem was NEVER resolved for 10 months. They just left it until MLB 11.

Shenanigans.

This game has some issues but in my eyes is still the greatest sports game ever. Some are acting like this game is unplayable, which in my opinion, is not even remotely close to the truth.

Im still loving every minute of this game. Is it perfect? No. But no "game" will ever be. They have like 98% great and thats quite the feat in itself.

Im lovin it, and if you arent, theres another game out there you could try.

Guys, please keep the discussion constructive. There is no need to repeat things and pound the same thoughts everywhere in every thread.

Stick to impressions.

Re: MLB 12 The Show - Patch Impressions Thread

i'm not sure this post belongs here or not but here go's, russell said not 1 line of code was altered for hitting or pitching (or something to that effect), so my question is... does that really matter? ok so they fixed the correct times for the start of games, they (im thinking) didn't mess with the decibals in homerun stats, but its there, so is it possible that something coulda happened to the offense when they fixed the start times? i have always had games in the 1, 2, or 3 run variety since i got the game (day 1), i played 6 innings today, 9 homers between 2 teams, it's just another coincidence? like not having 1 freeze until i downloaded the patch and started a new franchise and got several freezes?? hey sorry mod, i totally didn't mean to bash anything, there is an actual question there, please erase anything you don't feel is necessary

I'm pretty sure that the schedule and gameplay are two different coding and in no way a change in one of them could alter/change the other.

People need to seriously use their ****ing sliders and stop all this whining. MLB 10 was half the game this one is. Some of this empty rhetoric is really grating. The game is fantastic.

People are definitely hitting the ball more since the patch, not many are denying that. I believe that's his main point.

As far as "patch impressions"...

I froze in back to back lobby games last night (one against a buddy adil_gamer), then 2mins later I met a developer (hizahowie) in the lobby and he invited me to a game, that game froze during the intro too and he backed out. Both games are seen in my game history under this ID.

Whether or not hitting code was changed or not, the home plate freezing is currently the biggest problem. Some people can't play a single game unless they use Play Now and if you wish to play a friend, then that's a big problem.

That's my impression of the patch, at least I could play my buddy list before, now I can't.

You have posted incessantly about this since the patch yet you have not contributed even once to helping address the issue in the thread ASKING FOR HELP BY A DEVELOPER.

Enough - You've made your point and there is no reason to continue to go on about it.

Then does Wind affect that much? I am hitting 500 foot bombs and the ball just shoots off my bat on DD.

I believe it does. IMO wind is overdone.

Wind does affect fly balls quite significantly.

Cant say I like the patch. It feels like an overboard offensive game now. I was really enjoying the game before.

Why did I upgrade to the patch? I'm really kicking myself for that one.

I played my first game post patch last night - Yankees at Tampa - There was 6 hits in the game between both teams. I was wondering when the " juiced offense " some people mentioned in this thread was gonna happen..

I think the offense is very realistic in MLB 12.
