Re: MLB The Show 21 Patch 17 Available Today - Patch Notes

I know they won't but if they can acknowledge that they won't be able to fix it for this year that would be great

As a Dodgers fan, I've been waiting to start my franchise just in case they fix it and it would only apply to new franchises so some acknowledgement would go a long way

Or if they can somehow patch the option to select game time like in exhibition mode without affecting what the franchise schedule says for start time...

We already have the option to change weather with each game in franchise so here's hoping they can add time too

Re: MLB The Show 21 Patch 17 Available Today - Patch Notes

The schedules are on a 5 year loop. Have been for a while now. I sim years into the future so I can confirm this. What this means:

Same schedule for 2021, 2026, 2031.

2022, 2027 are the same.

2023, 2028 etc are the same.

This means that the schedule bug is only in years 1, 6, 11, 16, etc.

Fixing it is potentially franchise breaking and while immersion breaking, would cause problems for more than it would fix. I think they are smart not to fix it knowing it would break more than fix. And this is coming from someone who has lost faith in SDS.

Wouldn’t doubt they add a time option similar to what we can do with weather for 22’

In Play Now you can play in those stadiums at 11am,1pm, 4pm, 7pm still ?

Why not just letting us select a starting time in franchise mode ?

Re: MLB The Show 21 Patch 17 Available Today - Patch Notes

I am glad they fixed the dynamic difficulty glitch.

I am surprised they didn’t just add the option for start time after each game. Make it default to the schedule so if you don’t want to change it you don’t have to touch it. That seems like that would have been the easiest option. But probably too late in the game for that

It was probably more frustrating cause it happened to be probably the more popular teams. Dodgers, Red Sox, Gaints, and Angels? If it was the Orioles people wouldn’t care as much. Or even the Rays lol.

Still kinda confused lol

So I play legend pinpoint simulation, does that mean pitching will be harder for me?

My guess would be that this is a similar situation where the fix would cause a corruption of existing franchise, so while its extremely frustrating and annoying, the better option is to leave as be, and fix for '22.

Or it could be they cannot figure out how to fix it since its such an obscure bug in that it effects only 4 teams and only at a certain portion of the schedule, and isn't existent in year 2, or year 3 from my experience.
It would be nice if they came out and said that.

It's not game-breaking for me, but it is franchise-breaking in that I wouldn't ever play a franchise with that team that had that issue.

It is also a huge QA frustration that the game came out with this bug.
