      Re: FRANCHISE PROGRESS

      Well guys, my franchise is over. After saving in the middle of the game, my game now continuously freezes as I attempt to load it. I dont know what to do. Im assuming my franchise is screwed.

        Had the best game ever.. wow... finally won my first game of this series.

        Beat Pittsburgh 5-3 on a late 8th inning rally. This was the most exciting game I think I've had with a console baseball game.

        Loshe was sick!

            Your screwed. Saving a played game and restarting it wil cause your chise to glitch out. Don't use that feature.

            ================================================



            Won gm3 of the NLDS to breathe life into my team.

            Joe Blanton scattered 7 hits over 9 innings, going the distance and beating Arizona 1-0. Blanton K'd 11 on 87 pitches, walking none, and Philly finally got a run after Mike Cameron got aboard on a 2 out single up the middle.

            Pedro Feliz would crush his 2nd double of the game -- These being the only extra base hits in the game -- and Cameron would score from 1st to go up 1-0. The next batter, Shane Victorino, would K to end the inning.

            Blanton quickly retired Reynolds on a chopper back to the mound, Upton would single next, but Blanton would get his 10th and 11th Ks off of Conor Jackson and Eric Brynes to secure Philadelphia's first victory of the 2009 NLDS.

            Doug Davis pitched an outstanding game going 8 innings while surrendering 5 hits and k'ing 8, but I was able to coax his pitch count up and he was up around 100 pitches when he was lifted for Felipe Lopez to lead off the B8th.

            Notables... Utley/Ibanez went 0-8. Rollins was 2-4 w/ 2 singles and 2 SBs, couldn't get him to score since Utley and Ibanez were shutdown by the lefty Doug Davis.

            Gm4 I think I'll be starting Kyle Kendrick over Jamie Moyer since a righthander seems to be a better matchup against Arizona than a lefty.

            Hope I can even the series and bring it back to Philly.

              Yes you will have to start over now.
              As many people have found out, NEVER use the ingame save feature in this game. For some reason it causes the game to freeze. I never use the ingame saves and I always save my franchise on two different saves after every game played.

                  Re: FRANCHISE PROGRESS

                  I saved a game last night and thankfully, all was fine today.

                  Beat Pittsburgh 5-4 and split the series! Wellemeyer pitched very well and now Houston comes to town... we are 2-2.

                    Ah, I had heard about franchise freezing but I did not know is this was the cause. How strange, I used to save my games in the middle of a game all the time.. this was like id say the 30th or 40th time Ive done it and it froze this time.

                    Whatever, thanks for the advice haha.

                    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    So I started my new Marlins franchise today, with JBH's great sliders of course

                    Played two games:

                    Game 1 vs. Nationals W 4-0
                    I had a perfect game going with Nolasco through 6 and 1/3 innings, until Nick Johnson just managed to to get a single through the middle. Really upsetting, but oh well. It was the only hit I gave up, and Nolasco K'd 9

                    I won 4-0 thanks in large part to timely hitting and a big 2-run homerun from Hermida in the B4th.

                    Player of Game: Ricky Nolasco - 9 IP, 9 Ks, 1 H, 0 BB

                    Game 2 vs. Nationals W 9-3
                    Josh Johnson went 8 and 2/3 innings for me, and had a shutout going into the 9th. Unfortunately, a couple of hits and then a Justin Maxwell double ended the SO bid. Uggla also dropped a pop-fly going back into the outfield, which resulted in 2 more unearned runs crossing the plate.

                    Despite that, I had a big day at the play, scattering 16 hits. Cantu hit a 3-run bomb for me in the 4th that made it 7-0, and Hanley smashed a couple - a 3-run shot to dead center and 2-run shot to right center. Overall good day at the plate for alot of my guys, although Cantu and Hanley basically drove in all the runs.

                    Hermida went 0-4 with a K

                    Player of Game: Hanley Ramirez 3-4, 2 HRs, 5 RBIs, 1B, BB, FO

                      Okay, this caught my eye and I would like to verify... So does this freeze happen only when you save a game mid-stream, and then once you load it, you decide to quit and start the game over? Or is it just freezing on save games period? Like you, I use this all of the time, but would sure hate to get far into a season and have this happen to me.

                      My guess is that the remedy is to create a "Mets Saved Game" file and also a "Mets Completed Game File" therefor if I quit mid game and it does not load back up, the second file will allow me to start it over from the beginning. Does this make sense?

                        That's what I do, I keep a seperate file and if I have to save mid game I will only have to replay that game and not lose my entire season.

                        I have won like 25 Super Bowls in Madden so I am kinda a big deal.

                          To clarify:

                          Apparently, using the "Save and Quit" feature within the game eventually leads to a glitch that causes the game to immediately freeze upon attempting to load this in-progress saved game.

                          A backup isnt a bad idea at all - I plan on using one with my new Marlins franchise. Just a shame I lost all those Rockies games.

                            That is a shame and now I'm going to create a separate save just in case.

                              Before I started holding the LT to keep my OF from missing fly balls, Houston was up 10-6 - we come from behind once again and score 5 in the 9th to be the Stros, 11-10.

                              Carpenter vs Oswalt next game!
