Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

My SS is absolutely destroying he AA, he's averaging .494 has 40HR and 98RBI in 56 games, far better than anyone else. Yet I still can't get into the AAA. The AAA SS for the Dodgers has a rating of 54 and I'm a 59. I messed with the sliders to help myself out and put the difficulty in beginner (haven't played the show in a few years.) Could that be a reason why I haven't been moved up? I tries switching positions but they won't switch me or trade me. I would appreciate it if I got some help. Thanks

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

Just searched the forums and couldn't find anyone else with this problem.

I can't seem to get my baserunners in motion on a full count with 2 outs. I press the steal button and they don't move til the ball is in play. I hold it, press it multiple times, release it for a manual steal, nothing!

Any ideas?

Does the franchise budget DLC actually add funds you can use on players? I only ask because MLB 12 had a similar DLC that you could only use on stuff like transportation and facilities.

How do you change unis when playing online?

The same way you do when you play offline.

Why don't the pitcher rotations stay set when you sim spring training? Is this a bug? And the lineups?

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

How do I lead off a certain player on if I have runners on the corner how I do I just send one guy?

Hold LEFT STICK towards 1ST tap L1, R1 to move him back(think thats what you mean by lead off)

To Steal tap L2 instead of L1

With this being my 1st basball game i was having alot of trouble with the controls so I started a 2 player game and got guys on bases and then just messed around with the controls.
With you controlling the pitcher you can set up some situations and practice without being rushed.I did this with base running aswell. Helped me get used to the stick and button combos without being rushed like i was while playing a game.

Do pitchers get tired if you leave them in the bullpen throwing too long?

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

If I sub a guy lets say in the 7th or 8th inning... does that make him stay a little fresher??

i.e. If I sub sandoval in the bottom of the 7th for a defensive specialist.. will pablo stay a little fresher ????

Yes.
They lose some stamina.

They will regain it if you sit them for a few batters.

Yes....there is not a full "penalty" to fatigue if the player is not in the full game.

Thanks. You're answering all of my questions.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

Have they fixed the Rockies purple uniforms? Last year hey had purple uni's with black sleeves... they need to be all purple.

Have they added a no-trade clause or some way to stay with one team in RTTS? Any improvements with the goals in RTTS? Like removing the benching feature when you didn't hit 5 HR's and drive in 25 runs as a lead off/contact hitter.

Any new accessories added? I've seen you can add a Nike sign on the collar of your shirt, but is there anything else worth noting? Are we able to edit players accessories in RTTS? Last year we could not edit other players accessories.

How about them fixing the ridiculous amount of ground rule doubles? Also, have they fixed the pitch-out glitch in RTTS? Where it freezes if the CPU throws a pitch-out with you on base.

I only see the batting practice unis when playing someone online.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

Is there a reason why the PCI area increases during a game for a batter? I'm on All-star difficulty and I've seen for several of my players, their area has gotten larger during the game.

Re: MLB 13 The Show Q & A Thread

Didn't want to clog up the forum with a new thread, so I figured I'd come here. Does anyone know why every time I attempt to access an online feature, it comes to the "Retrieving Licensing Agreement" pop-up, and then it says "Your connection to The Show has been lost"?

I'm not sure if it's a bug or what, but all of my other games have been working just fine for online.

PS: I should also mention this only began to occur after I put in the Vault Code or whatever they call it. Ever since then, it has frozen on the retrieving licensing agreement for a few minutes before disconnecting me.
