***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

[SoxFan01605]

Since there is a lot of random threads about each issue that crops up, I figured we should try (yet again) to get this going.

If one of the mods want to merge this with something else or whatever that's fine. Just trying to help clean stuff up a bit.

So post your bugs/glitches here.

For me:

-I've had several instances of freezes after a hot shot type play down either the 1B or 3B line. The game will lock up. I can normally get it going by hitting pause scrolling through the menu a bit and exiting back out. Once I had to restart completely.

-Occasionally the CPU OF will jerk away from the ball at the last minute, letting it bounce and leading to a triple or inside-the-park-HR.

-I had my outfielder (I think it was Lewis on the giants) get stuck on the wall when going for a deep foul. He just kept running in place.

-I had a really weird one my last game. I was the Mets, at home, against the Cubs. In the 5th inning I attempted a diving catch with Wright and he came up injured.

Afterwards, every time the ball was put in play, the fielder nearest the ball would go into a diving/rolling animation and "commando" over the ball...lol. It was again and again until eventually someone actually fell close enough to the ball.

this happened on each hit. I exited the game and went to replay it with no issue. Very odd.

Anyway, let's try and keep this informative and not turn it into another excuse to bash 2K (regardless of whether or not anyone feels they deserve it)

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

- The throw speed on double plays is ridiclous. They need to speed it up so guys like Pujols and Ortitz can't beat out a grounder on a routine 6-4-3 DP.

- On double plays that actually get turned they need to fix the SS's face on the turn. It makes no sense that he can throw to 1st base 100% accurate while looking at home ...

- Add in takeout slides. I've seen the CPU do this to me but, I can't do it in return when my runner is right there.

- Home plate collisions are non existant. Instead the Cather opts to lunge at the plate and make an impossible tag instead of guarding the tracks

- They need to fix the random injuries that shouldn't happen. Ex: I was playing the Indians at the Jake and Seizmore hit a HR to LF and it gave me an option to climb the wall even though it's a good 20+ ft high ? Indian fans correct me on the wall height. Also on that same play Morgan ran up, tapped the wall like he knew it was gone then left the game with a shoulder injury ... Made no sense at all.

- They need to add in the event that Pitchers can throw a ball past 1st, 2nd or 3rd base when attempting a pickoff.

- Tone down the pickoff's. It's absolutely pathetic that Nate McClouth who has a steal rating of 75 and stole 23/26 bases last year gets picked off first base with a 1 step or no step lead. Absolute horrible coding on 2K's part there ...

- Give us roster editing back like in 2K7 and 2K8. It's pathetic they have Adrian MacDonald in AAA Indianopolis as a white boy when everyone and their mother knows it's Andrew McCutchen.

*For those of you who've never seen McCutchen play here's what he looks like.



- Fix the random FPS hickups on foul balls hit to 3rd or 1st in the air ...

I think that's it for now, I'm sure there's more.

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

My biggest Bug problem is when I throw to first and the 1B isn't even on the bag. Always seems to happen at the worst times.

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

Here's a good example of the 1B thing a lot of people are running into...courtesy of Blzer:

Look here about 25 seconds in:

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

Try this one on for size. When you start a online league. Your Number 1 pitcher disappears, in my case 1 and 2. One was replaced by a 3rd baseman and other was a repeat. I had 2 ryan franklins and brian barden replaced Carpenter and Wainwright. HUGE ISSUE

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

The manager was half way stuck in the field during a pitching change. He still walked out to the mound and back to the dugout fine but from the waist down he was in field.

Yes there is some absolutely terrible tearing and morphing happening in the "real time" world. Managers get their legs stuck below the field where you can only see them from the chest up, and players like to get stuck in "gliding" across the field instead of moving naturally (i.e. walking or running).

1B bug has been mentioned.

Pickoffs at 2nd are almost always a sure out. Even with the slider at 0.

The Batting/AI and Pitching AI aggressiveness needs serious fixing.

Patch the game 2K and Visual Concepts! It is something to proud of and will be looked upon with great respect by the community if these issues in this thread are addressed. It is important to act on this information. The future sales of the series depends on it, even if it's just a few thousand sales...

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

Just had a weird thing were in the replay Pedro Martinez (I added him to the Orioles just to mess around) turned in to a bright white guy...lol.

When it came back he was flickering and then settled into his normal appearance. Weird.

For Devs:Glitches, A.I. Flaws I have found

Playing as my Rays against Boston. I had runners on first and third with one out. Batter hit a deep drive to left center.

I called for the baserunners *first and third to head home. Had the icon up, all good. The runner who was on first made it to third and came to a complete stop.

Once the defense had the ball and threw toward the plate, said runner then took off toward the plate where he was tagged out.

This is not a complaint. I hope someone can use this for material for a future patch.

Thank you.

Re: Baserunning Glitch...Staying at 3rd refusing to move

*Would also like to report Fielding issue.

Outfielder running in a small circle while awaiting a flyball.

The ball dropped right in front of him.

Thank you.

Re: Baserunning Glitch...Staying at 3rd refusing to move

Another incident involving baserunning.

I had runners on first and second. Deep fly to left centerfield that landed for a hit. I instructed my runners to advance to home and third.

The runner who was on second scored. The runner who was on first made it to third safely. He was standing on the bag...dead still and @ 5 seconds later, the cutoff man threw to third and I was counted out and my runner walked off the field.

Thank you

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

I have had the 1b issue once in three games (I use the R stick) I have had the outfielder run into the wall non stop while letting up a 3 run inside the park HR, the pitching change quicksand effect. I also had a game lock up and freeze after a 14 inning victory vs. the Cubs it was my 1st game strait out of the box and it said disc read error please restart system. I haven't had that once again.

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

1 - bug/glitch

Hit to the 2nd baseman (Utley) he fields it close to first. I throw it, he goes into a windup then stops then starts the throw again, guy end up safe.

2 - bad AI.

Nobody on 1 out - Pitcher Sac bunts.

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

Game freezes when I try and load a roster from 2kshare.

[goh]

Re: ***Official Bugs/Glitches Thread***

Runner on first. I hold LT. They try a pick off. I hold RT. It appears he made it back in time easily. Called out. I load up the replay and find he had STOPPED and was acting like he was on the bag even though he was still a few inches off and didn't go back all the way but the game thought he did. Also he didn't dive back he ran back.

Runner on second,fly hit to deep right. Tag up,try to advance and for some reason he goes but doesn't run. It was more of a trot like you'd see if you hit HR.

Speaking of wich I'm convinced the sliders are broken. I moved the AI batting success to 0 and they still got 11 hits. I moved my power all the way to 100 and have yet to hit a HR using classic not even when holding up. I moved my errors to 0 and still comitted 3.

Another manager out of the dugout glitch where they were moving extremely slowly like he was on one of those things at the airport and his legs weren't moving.

Gonna try something with the HR thing.
Practice with Puljos. 20 pitches,keeping power slider at max.

Classic produced 1 HR,nothing else deep.
Total Control produced 8 HRs with 6 to the track or off the wall.
Classic + Zone produced 12 HRs with 3 to the track or off the wall.
Stick + Zone produced 5 HRs with 4 to the track or off the wall.
Batters eye wasn't on for any them.

So it looks like the Classic hitting by itself is the problem and maybe not the sliders.
