Major League Baseball 2K10 Patch v1.2 Available Now, Post Impressions Here

Just played my first game on the 360 with the second patch and was wondering if anyone else thinks the camera was pulled back a little on fly balls to make it more like 2K9's camera.

I had my hopes up after reading he first blurb about double switches being fixed. This was probably my number one wish for the game.

It;s funny that some people expected the batting styles to be put back in. It's pretty clear that they were taken out because, despite how cool they looked, in the long run, it made the game boring as heck. 2K elected not to include the boring version of the game in this year.

See the complaints about The Show. You spend too much time admiring the beautiful animations and graphics, and not enough time playing the game. What 2K10 has is a much better balance, and it makes the games feel compelling and fun.

Yes, they could have included the full drawn out signature styles and the rest of the real-time stuff. But I absolutely can't blame them for cutting it out. It was a bad design decision for 95% of the people that play games.

I want to be clear, all of that stuff was done superbly well and really made the game feel like a real game. But it is a videogame, and it really didn't work. Instead, they poured their time and effort into the the commentary and overlays, and it created a game that felt as real, but without bogging down the action.

I suppose you still can't save camera settings....

Any try a new franchise yet? Can you edit cpu lineups? Don't want to start my season until I can make sure teams don't screw up their lineups after spring training, sending starters to AAA and replacing them with scrubs.

I came here to see what this patch addressed...and apparently it works. I was dominating with my pitcher in "My Player" but now he's garbage. Haha. My pitches are all over the freaking place...it's almost to the point where it's *too* much tinkering with the settings because now pitches are almost a half-a-plate away from where they should be...

I'd like to point out that, in fact, you can now leave your PH in the game. When prompted to select a new pitcher, you are given an option to double switch. When you do, you are led through the process of selecting who comes out and which pitcher comes in. The new pitcher is in the slot of who you chose to leave, while your PH is now batting in the pitcher's slot, but listed as whatever position the player you took out was.

It's possible that this was always in the game, as it is not how I ever tried to execute this move. They also did not list this as a fix.

But this a huge deal for me.

Sorry, but the pitching thing is out of control now. No matter if I use Mo Rivera, Halladay, or some scrub in the minors, it's as if where you aim the pitch has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on where it ends up. This is ridiculous. Even when I hit the max rating with the right gesture, the pitch ends up half a plate away. If you don't hit the max rating...forget about it.

What are your slider settings? It's safe to say that they will now need to bre adjusted.
I played a game on pro, and while accuracy was down, it was still pretty easy.
