Users should no longer get stuck after multiple recordings. Players names not being called correctly in the audio. One specific item was Beltran being called Delgado and vice versa. This line used to be erroneously said for Juan Rivera. It has now been corrected to play for Casey Kotchman. This line used to be erroneously said for David Ortiz. This line used to be erroneously said for Miguel Cabrera. It has now been "disabled". Career stats after going online and using weekly online Live Rosters or using the Online Roster Vault should now be correct. Fixed issues with unbalanced trades when the rosters were full. 3 for 1 trades that will result in people being placed on waivers should now function. Fix the problem in RTTS as the pitcher when a baserunner from 1st steals, the camera would sometimes swing around thru the crowd. Fix switch hitter sub presentations using the wrong helmet sometimes.

Yeah, turn off injuries.

I downloaded that roster as well and stats are all messed up for me entire yankee team basically. I tried uploading Ridins and it said no roster before patch 1.02 can be uploaded.

# 43 rudyjuly2 @ 04/27/09 05:09 PM

I want to know if anything was done to fix the lack of user fielding errors in this game. I also want to know why the DH fatigue wasn't fixed.

If anyone can confirm the removal of the L2 button to steal while auto baserunning, it would be great. If they removed that feature I won't even download the patch and go through the trouble of a patch that offers next to nothing for me.

Which roster? What stats are messed up? I only looked at Arods and he had his 554 HRs and everything else for him looked okay, but like I said he was the only player I checked that I knew had wacko stats before.

Isn't there a slider?

The updated roster one. Check the starting lineup basically all players there are wrong stats.

I checked AROD and his stats were correct. So, maybe re-uploading these roster files to the vault will fix that problem.

the one you downloaded is just the 4/27 update someone put in the vault. That's what it looks like to me at least...

I don't think so, it has full minors and guys like Millar and Jamie Walker.

Just tried this and it works.

Unfortunately you are right, it just takes away from the roster management side of Franchise mode.

They're still messed up with those. ARod is ok but there are lots of others. Check Billy Wagners save total. That's how I found out.

Yep, you're right. Oh well...

# 55 firktaf @ 04/27/09 05:46 PM

Well, now I'm depressed. It's great that they fixed everything that they did(and it is a lot of things) but they didn't fix the RTTS regression problem and that was the only issue I had with the game. I've barely even touched the game for last couple weeks because of that and was hoping that the patch would fix it. I guess I'm just SOL(unless they do another patch which, imo, is unlikely) and won't do RTTS this year.

But again, it is great that they fixed that many things.

# 56 Stikskillz @ 04/27/09 05:47 PM

Does anyone know if the difficulty level for online leagues was addressed? For example, if the league was set up for Legend it automatically goes to Veteran once the game starts. Hopefully, it stays on Legend now.

# 57 DrUrsus @ 04/27/09 05:49 PM

Like I have said before, I think the only rosters that will not have the career stat glitch will be SCEA 4/20 and SCEA 4/27 (today's). I have tested both of those.

The problem before was that once a new SCEA roster came out the previous rosters got the stat glitch. The reason why I think 4/20 SCEA roster is OK is because it does not have the stat glitch even after the new one came (4/27). And of course 4/27 which is today's wouldn't "show" the glitch yet anyway since there is no newer roster. But, I think it will be fine (4/27) since 4/20 is fine.

All rosters that you don't want to have the career stat glitch will have to originate from SCEA 4/20 (if these can be loaded to the vault, that is) or 4/27 (that is my current hypothesis).

Sorry, brotha, I don't play online (and from the sounds of it I am glad I don't, lol).

I don't play RTTS. What is that glitch? Can you do the workaround they posted on the first page of the patch is coming thread.

# 60 rumfinator @ 04/27/09 05:52 PM

Anybody having a problem with their franchise crashing after this update? Whenever I load my franchise and press R2 it quits out and goes to the dashboard.
