MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

[douggoud]

this is why the show is tops every year, lol, i also had the cpu making trades for me, i've decided to put that on hold for now and play some rtts while they make a patch for it

(if it were 2k it be 2 weeks before it got fixed ) lol

thats why i love SCEA

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

fairly big issue.. and im hoping this is due to the broken potential ratings that there will be a fix for..

but the giants accept a trade straight up, gary sheffield for tim lincecum, every time ...

like i said im guessing thats cause sheff is labeled potential a, and lincecum a b?

If your game has crashed at Tropicana Field were you using the default rosters or the roster update?

I've used the default roster each time. I changed the numbers of Tejada, Atkins, and Hendrickson manually though.

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

This sounds pretty sweet. Even once things are fixed I might go this route anyway. That way if I see a trade I think is crazy I can stop it from going through, and if it seems legit I can go ahead and let it happen.

Bug or no bug, I think this sounds like the way to go.

The only prob with this that I see is once they fix the bug, teams set to manual trade will no longer offer trades as they are doing now. If it gets fixed, and every team is set to Manual, there should be no trades unless you make them. So you have to decide do we want SCEA to fix this or leave it as is so we can basically appove every trade. Does that make any sense?

True, but maybe next year we can get a trade over ride option added?

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

Would be curious to hear what you find out when you test out proposing trades to the CPU using the setup youve mentioned.

My guess is it will ask you if you want to accept the trade......Since in theory you are control trades for all teams you will be asked to accept.

That might be the only "downside" to this that I see.

That would be cool to have that as a option. Me personally, for this year would like the trade issue fixed. I would rather not have to oversee all of the computers trades. But if it doesn't get fixed, no big deal. I'll still enjoy it.

Great job of informing us guys.

Just one quick question.

Will these fixes be included in the Monday roster update?

Or are the roster update and game play fixes going to be 2 seperate items?

Is it possible to set the global profile options "Trades" setting back to Auto once the franchise has already started, propose/make the trade, then set it back to manual? I would think that we would want to use the immediate trade option (instead of the setting that delays the response for a few days) so that the CPU teams don't slip anything through while they're set to auto trades. Wouldn't help any problems with the trade logic of CPU accepting weak deals but at least it wouldn't be up to us whether or not to approve our own trades all the time.

When they update the roster it will be just for potential of players. That may help "alleviate" some problems, but not stop them. What I mean by that is players with a higher potential may not be placed on the waiver wire, may not be traded as frequently etc.

The "real" problems will need to be fixed with a patch, because that will involve changing code. How the cpu decides who to trade, place on waivers, pull back from human, stop auto trading etc...

That is true, if I was home I would give it a shot. I would only set the auto to the team I wanted to trade with because if you open it up the all the rest, even in one days time trades could happen all over. Who's to say the cpu won't (auto)trade with you while you are working a trade out with someone else?

Gotcha. Guess I'll have to wait for the patch to drop before cranking out my franchise. No biggie..that just means more practice time, and on some online league action until then

Re: MLB '10: The Show - Franchise Issues Update

Looks like im all set to go with a Franchise once the Monday roster set drops Nice workaround Knight, that will do me rather than wait 'x' amount of time for the potential patch.

I'll have to check when I get the game in front of me, but isn't there an interest meter under every trade? Trades won't be accepted unless they're past the halfway mark if I remember correctly. Maybe we can use that as a barometer for trading with computer teams and still being able to override their trades. Any problems with this idea?

Well, does everyone just create and franchise and simulate through the years or something? because I made a season mode and tried to PLAY a game and this has happened to me 2 times already with the first game of the season mode freezing on me towards the 7-8th inning when I hit the SELECT BUTTON. It;s so dumb and makes this game completely unplayable. if a game freezes on you in the 8th inning, it makes you not want to replay that one game all over again if youre trying to play all 162 games -_- please patch this up!
