MLB 2K9 Post-Patch Impressions (360 & PS3 merged)

i threw first pitch strikes to the entire yankee lineup and they swung at every first pitch....hopefully its me with the meter thats causing the cpu to do that.

so pre=patch, i was a month into a 2 team franchise, playing about 1/2 the games with both teams...not once did i have a freeze.

post-patch, 3rd hitter in the 1st inning the game locks up, has done this 3 times in a row

wonderful

Question: did the patch address picking your opposing pitcher in play ball mode?

I had a save in the middle of a game between yankees and philles. Throw first pitch fastball, games fine, threw second pitch curveball game froze... figure it was just a random thing. So i loaded the game back up, first pitch curveball to test again... and boom another freeze ... these are complete xbox freezes not just the game

So yea needless to say i had to load the game and then quit out in order for my franchise to work again.

No! You still can't edit the cpu's starting pitcher!

The outfield does play a little better. No easy pick-offs at 2nd and the batter is a LITTLE less agressive.

I play on All Star difficulty and just had a pretty good game.

I did have two fielding issues (I never had this problem before either) that almost made me throw my controller and turn the game off! They were both instances where my Pitcher was running over to cover 1st and the throw was perfect but he never touched the base and the runner was safe both times!

It cost me 1 run but I did still won by one. I just wish the animations and lighting were a lot better and smoother.

Yeah I was kind of all over the place with C.C. as well...not really sure why, I'm not pitching any differently "post patch"...

...and I'm using BFJ's set.
