Thanks Brian as usual for the quick response. Hopefully you guys get it done right.

Can I start my franchise now with April 7ths roster and have the equipment fixed later on or do I have to wait for a new roster update that includes the equipment fix?

thanks

Unlike another company us 360 owners have to deal with...

Any explanation why there was no PSP update at all this week? Was it pulled? Was there also a glitch or was it ignored at the expense of getting an update out for the PS3 users?

Maybe I'm seeing things, but with the new roster update, I haven't seen this equipment problem. I've seen players with batting gloves and sleeves on, as well as elbow guards and shin guards used by the appropriate players. Just to make sure I checked the rosters to make sure the new players such as Fukudome were added, and they were.

Yes, you have the equipment problem. Everyone does.

It is in reference to the armbands, wristbands and one sleeve settings players such as Jeter or Reyes have. They are gone in this update.

Players still wear batting gloves, shin guards, elbow guards... but they don't have their "field" equipment.

This is something that may already be up online but I haven't been able to get online so I haven't been able to check, but is there a patch that is released or going to be released to fix the equipment issue or will it be something that we will just have to wait until next week's roster update to get the problem fixed?

And that my friends is the worlds longest sentence...

Of equal importance is the weird player edit glitches being reported. If you can live with the accessories missing, what about editing players? I hate to start a franchise and find out later that all created and edited players become corrupt or have a rainbow face....or worse....Derek Jeter's!
