Unfortunately these teams made the playoffs and we (Redsox) didn't

Oh...yikes.

I could have swore others said that even though the standings "looked wrong" they accurately advanced the appropriate teams.

Thanks for sharing.

Did you PM your file to Russell_SCEA?

So I did some more testing and simming with my franchise started after 1.06 was installed. Cross Platform saves look like they are definitely working now. Which is huge for me. Only reason I bought a Vita. Still no freezes or wonky standings.

30 team franchise, started after 1.06 install.

A thought just occured to me: Is it possible that people that are experiencing freezes AFTER uninstalling the patches are having problems because the roster file AND/OR Franchise file NEEDED the release day patch to continue their progress without hitches???

Meaning, if my Franchise file is a release day patched Franchise, but my PS3 doesn't have ANY PATCHES, that the issues happening with 1.06 to 1.16 freezes are essentially happening to no-patch to release day patch files?

Like, this issue is happening to any Franchise file that gets forced to a retroactive Game Data Additional Content; essentially as if this problem has existed all along and now we are only seeing it because the masses are uninstalling?

Am I making sense???

I think so.

There was actually a patch on release day. 1.05 (I THINK)
If you delete the patches, I would assume this deletes too.

That could be causing issues.
Obviously they knew there were issues before the game was released, hence the reason they issues a patch on release day.

That wasn't my point. A release day patch isn't unusual at all. I was refering to people that are still freezing after deleting all the patches. Here's what I meant:

1. I DL 1.05 and start my Franchise (back up on zip drive).
2. I DL 1.06 and continue my Franchise.
3. I DL 1.16 and continue my Franchise, but decide to delete all patches.
4. I delete all patches, and continue my 1.05 franchise taken from my zip drive.
5. I keep seeing freezes, freezes I never saw at all until 1.06 or 1.16.

I'm *thinking* the reason *might* have to do with continuing a 1.05 Franchise on an unpatched system. The same (or similar) freezing as a person trying to continue a 1.06 franchise on an unpatched system, or a person trying to continue a 1.06 franchise on a 1.16 system. Compatability issues.

Is it possible that no matter what, if you patched after safely backing up, continuing on an unpatched system (regardless of which patch the Franchise had when zip driving it) could possibly expose people to problems?

I was just saying that maybe the reason we never read about 1.05 Franchises freezing was because no one tried to change their update (meaning uninstalling the one and only patch and continuing their patched Franchise).

Like, this issue is happening to any Franchise file that gets forced to a retroactive Game Data Additional Content; essentially as if this problem has existed all along and now we are only seeing it because the masses are uninstalling?

I didn't even think of that. That certainly is well within the realm of possibility. Good catch!!

That wasn't my point. A release day patch isn't unusual at all. I was refering to people that are still freezing after deleting all the patches. Here's what I meant:

1. I DL 1.05 and start my Franchise (back up on zip drive).
2. I DL 1.06 and continue my Franchise.
3. I DL 1.60 and continue my Franchise, but decide to delete all patches.
4. I delete all patches, and continue my 1.05 franchise taken from my zip drive.
5. I keep seeing freezes, freezes I never saw before the release day patch.

But what I meant was that if you delete the patches, will that not also delete 1.05 and give you a raw unpatched game?

That raw unpatched game could have been so ice cold and thats why they patched it on release day.

Right. It will.

But if you then try to continue a seemingly "safe" 1.05 franchise file on an unpatched system, will that TOO cause compatability freezing issues?

BTW, I edited my last post to trying and be clearer.

Yeah I think we are pretty much saying the same thing, just in a different way.

Gripe. I set up sounds of the show (ps3), and when some sounds are cued the stock sound and the custom sound are played. I remember this sucking last year too. I'd love an option to shut off the stock sounds.

After reading several pages I'm holding off on installing this. I already had one bug kill one of my franchises, this is a fun game but my patience is going to be spread really thin if I continually have to restart.

If you are before the All Star Game, you should be safe to DL 1.16.

Just downloaded the newest update today. I am in mid July (after all star break like on the 21st) with my Cubs franchise.

I played my next game against the Cardinals and after the game it came up that Jeff Baker came off the DL I could auto utilize or place on bench. After I made a selection the game just froze. I tried this 4 times and everytime it would freeze in the same spot.

Needless to say I'm pretty pissed right now, and not sure what to do.

Sorry if this has been asked but has anyone skipped downloading this last patch?

I'm skipping it for now just because I don't have time to read through his whole thread.....because I'm too busy playing my franchise, hehe.

Re: MLB 12 The Show Game Update 1.16 Arrives, Details Included - Post Your Impression

Wouldn't 1.16 be all of those patches combined? As I mentioned earlier I just bought the game and I was prompted to DL 1.16.
