Has anyone been able to start a franchise with a fantasy draft and avoiding the lineup glitch with the computer controlled teams lineups and pitchers? I keep starting franchises using the fantasy draft option and drafting my team. When i'm finished, I always see the CPU controlled teams always have either 1 or 2 bench players and way to many pitchers in the bullpen. I don't think the idea of the franchise with the fantasy draft option was to have us simulate 1 season to fix the lineup bug.

I believe they are referring to the schedules in future seasons not rotating divisions for interleague play and no longer having rivalry matchups...ie Yankees vs. Mets.

Each season the schedule stays the same in Online Franchise.

Got it and forwarded to the responsible parties.

Also, schedules in the future have series starting on weird days like saturdays and wednesdays.

Here's a thread talking about scheduling issues:
Edit: The link won't work, but the thread was called, "Messed Up Schedule for 2015 +"

Also there's a glitch with facial hair on created players/editable players. If you put stubble on, it will look like a full beard in between pitches, and it also twitches a lot.

It's basically how the stubble doesn't look right in the editor, but it still used to come out right during the game, well it no longer comes out right during the game either.

Stupid question but in online franchise where do I see proposed trades to me from CPU teams? Everytime I log in it shows me I have multiple offers that have expired. Please help

Played a game with my friend online and there were multiple instances of funkiness going on. For example, on more than one occasion, one of us would hit a fly ball and it appeared to the batter that the ball went over the outfielder's head for extra bases, but to the defender, his fielder got there in time to make the out. Eventually the game would sync to let the batter know he was really out, but it was crazy.

not sure what kind of actual testing goes in in these updates wasted a good 45 minutes last night playing 6 innings after a league game was frozen on a ball in the dirt

Anyone notice if the umpires' strike zone "personalities" change/rotate in Offline Franchise games now? I haven't picked up the game for over a week.

# 213 Mizzou24 @ 07/24/14 02:52 PM

I wish that was true Mizzou. Sony keeps taking their sweet time, as long as we stop talking about it they have no reason to bring back Mp3's

I can tell you on the PS3 the umps have their own strike zones as always.

Woody Kellers crew (with my old pal Clyde Washington) have their nutty inconsistent strike zones. I dread that crew every time I get them LOL. Especially Clyde and Woody. They also blow some calls on steals. Last night Brett Gardner was clearly safe on a steal of second by was called out. I was flipping.

But it is the variability that I want. Of course now we have replay challenges IRL....I wonder if The Show will implement that next year.

I don't know if it is placebo or if they actually tuned check swings....but they seem improved since the patch. I am getting more favorable calls on checks that are clearly checks where as before I was getting rung up on them.

Thanks! What mode do you play?

A number of folk were/(are?) having problems with Umpire Strike Zones not "cycling" between games.

	We were always getting the same generous on the inside to righties/outside to lefties, pinching like a miser on the inside to lefties/outside to righties, and completely schizophrenic on borderline low pitches - to the point where I've begun pitching everyone the same way.

I've only played two games so far since the patch, and I'm hopeful that it may have started cycling correctly again. Would love to get confirmation from the devs that we're either not crazy or they fixed it.

# 217 Artman22 @ 07/25/14 03:44 PM

I'm still extremely disappointed with the online play. Had the game freeze up on me twice 2 nights ago and it's still very laggy at times. I really hope SCEA puts some real emphasis on online for next years game.

That's what my buddies and I were saying. Now it feels worse than before.

Franchise mode as well as season mode with classic rosters.

Woody Keller today was not giving me the low side of the strike zone...just like always. And Clyde is blind as a bat sometimes calling BS strikes on outside the zone pitches.

Disappointed that there were no stadium fixes in this patch.... Busch Stadium as an example.
While I understand that Ballpark Village wasn't added... There were still a couple or glaring mess ups. One was the brick column in left field... wrong column all together..... too tall , wrong design, wrong color..... just plain wrong. The other is the white strip above the press box... in previous Shows, it was red with St Louis on it..... it was completely missed in the years game. Chances are I'll have to wait till next year to see the fixes..... but very disappointing .
