Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

I thought your camera preferences were saved with your profile, but every time I start up a new game I have to change the cameras again in "Play Now" mode. Am I missing something?

I found they are saved in the Settings File. Try that. My cameras are all saved now.

Why do you say that? Have you played a franchise, completed a year and negotiated player salaries?

I simmed a couple of seasons and in each off season I re-signed players for cheap as hell. Weaver won the Cy Young Award in 2012 and all it took to re-sign him was 6 years 60 million. There's no superstar free agents cause teams can easily re-sign them.

Thanks - that worked!!! I thought I tried that, but I guess not.

This year they added a Batter's Eye Frequency slider, or you can just turn Batter's Eye off I believe in Options.

It is under the Presentation options.

Hey BA2929, if you ever do edit any of the Royals minor league systems will you be uploading your roster. I would love to be able to use it as I feel the same way you do. As a Royals fan the upcoming talent is all we've got to hold onto (and a beautiful ballpark). Anyways, I know this is lazy, so I understand if you say "do it yourself".

I screwed around with some editing last night and it wasn't too hard to change some names around and get a few guys in there that I wanted. I edited a few AAA guys to Moustakas and Hosmer and a AA catcher to Salvador Perez. Best part? Gary Thorne actually says Moustakas and Hosmer. So 2k knew they'd probably get called up. However, I have a problem when I edit players.... I make them too awesome. Moustakas and Hosmer are now an 83 and 82 respectively. I probably nailed Perez though, as he's a 64. Moose and Hosmer haven't even gotten to their 5 star potential either. So, I suggest that if you want rosters you should probably wait until someone else (who is better at it than me) does it, or just mess around with it yourself. It really isn't that difficult, but I understand if you're feeling lazy. I feel that way 98% of the time. Here's the Baseball America Top 100 Prospects for 2011: http://www.baseballamerica.com/today...1/2611328.html

Just find the Royals guys and do some swift editing. I think it probably took me 10 minutes total to change 3 guys around. www.baseball-reference.com would be a good place to find height/weight/DOB/hometown etc to make it even more realistic.

However, if I do end up going "all-in" and creating the Royals Top 100 guys, I'll make a post in the roster area. I doubt it'll be for awhile, as I'll stick with My Player mode until another patch comes out that hopefully adjusts the problem with players resigning for below market value when they reach Free Agency.

Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

Sorry if this has been asked, in regards to MLB Today games does this only work during the regular season? It seems as though the lineups are the default lineups for the teams and not the live roster. Thanks

Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

I wont be sure if MLB Today works in exhibition until i've played more games. But i would guess that while updated rosters/lineups will be put in, MLB Today is a franchise-only feature

Huh? Confused, I want to play MLB today games, not franchise mode.

Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

I think it is in but I am not sure because I have seen ordinary players like Brent Morel have a great game.

Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

MLB Today will not feature accurate line-ups, just versions of the most commonly used line-ups. they do a great job of adjusting this throughout the season as teams bench some guys and swap players in the line-up.

That fact is, they can't do the accurate ones. The line-ups aren't available until an hour or two before the game. MLB Today updates overnight. But you can by editing the line-up in pregame. And this year you can do the same to your opponent!

They do get the starting pitchers right 90% of the time. If a guy is not on the game roster, though, he will be replaced by the number one guy.

The did fail to allow me to input the pitcher batting eighth, which is really annoying. I really don't get why they fail to do this.

Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

A long shot that I'll actually get answers on these, but I'll ask anyways...

A few questions about editing players, with the possibility of classic rosters in mind:

1. Is there a limit to the amount of players you can edit? I assume you can't edit current players, but I'm talking about CAPs and generic minor league players.

2. Are there any bugs that occur when you edit players? I thought I read that last year's game had a bug that reset a player's appearance when you called them up from the minors.

3. Is there a player DNA feature on 2K Share where you can upload and download individual players, like they have for NBA 2K11?

Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

Is it possible this year to create a team and then input that team and its players into franchise mode? (to replace one of the existing teams)

Re: Official MLB 2K11 - Q&A Thread

Any way to change batter walkup themes within Franchise mode?
