Freezes

[Watson]

I know, **** happens, and I can deal with the occasional freeze while on menus, but the amout of gameplay freezes is ****ing insane.

This isn't the first, nor the second, but the third time the game has frozen in the bottom of the 9th. Overall, I must have had 10-12 freezes since I got the game.

How does this happen?

Try setting your presentation setting to "hurry up" and this should reduce
the lock ups.

Mine keeps freezing trying to start ' My Player' just sits with a black screen while the 'Initializing My Player' reads at the bottom of the screen. My xbox doesnt lock up that seems to be fine. Very bloody frustrating.

I just had a freeze earlier this evening during a spring training game against the Astros while it was going to a replay at the end of my half of the second inning. So what I did was change the presentation settings to 2K10 and turned replays off. Hopefully that will help.

Are you guys using created rosters?
I was using default rosters with no problems for a long time with no freezes.
I then downloaded one of the created rosters with named minor leaguers and I couldnt get a game in without a freeze.
I then deleted the roster and have been using default rosters again without any problems.

I was playing for a few days without the release day patch and I had multiple freezes. Since I managed to hook up my 360 to Live and get the update, I've had none. I'm also using the latest MLB Today rosters.

Same deal with me. My default roster works fine. But the edited roster I've been working on will cause the game the crash at times. I've checked and rechecked the teams I've edited to make sure the correct number of players are on each team. Yet another bug 2K is infamous for, looks like.

I have also had it with the ****ing freezes! I really enjoyed 2K10 and with my preferred japanese baseball game delayed i decided to give 2K11 a chance but the freezes are killing the game for me. i want to keep on playing it but my game session ends in a freeze EVERY TIME. PS3, using the default roster, with the day 1 patch, in franchise mode, i have had the game freeze BEFORE the game, AFTER the game, and in the franchse menus while looking at my roster. I just hate it when I keep losing progress with freezes at the end of a game so all the player stats i accumulated are gone. there are already 162 games in a season so i dont want to play the same day twice so i just simulate the crashed game. really annoying. would it kill these people to do some sort of bug tests?

and the guy above mentioned 2K are famuos for these bugs and i have to agree. NBA 2k11 was the same mess. the 2 weeks before the all star break, every game in season mode will freeze after the 1st quarter and the only way is to sim past all of them. thats just sad.
