This is some bull. I downloaded the patch, went to apply it, and it tells me that it's not compatble with my version of the game. I downloaded via Gamestop Direct 2 Drive... and now I can't use the patch... just wonderful. Thanks 2k!

Same problem here.

How do we install the patch?

I downloaded my game directly from GameStop.

"Frustration is building elsewhere about the fact that this patch only works for the retail release and not the digital distribution versions of the game."

Yeah, 2k Ron said he's looking into it. Granted, the game is only $20, but I want my $20 to be supported just like those who went to the store and paid for it. Granted, I sit on my *** and waited for it to download for $20, but still yet...

Hopefully we'll have a update soon. Wondering if someone with a retail version sent the updated files, if it'd work on those with the digital download version or if it's something totally different.

Hang tight D2D'ers - I have several of those games myself and what usually happenes is that the D2D site provides their own versions of patches that work with that version. For me, when the Fallout 3 patch came out it was updated on D2D the next day. There's no set scedule, but it usually isn't long before they get their version up.

im not seeing much of a difference as far as aggression from the cpu is. Too many strikes thrown also. Its like you have to put the strike slider at 5. I see a little bit of girst pitches going through for strikes, but after that its back to hack happy CPU batters. I will say that user pitching is extremely hard right now. Its almost to the point of you dont know where your pitch is gonna end up. I put the ball near the batters head to throw a curveball down the middle.

*headdesk*

Look at this: http://www.direct2drive.com/patches/

That's a list of every patch that's come out for direct2drive games, because regular patches simply don't work with them, and aren't designed to. If this is 2k's fault, then it's also the fault of just about every game developer who puts their games on D2D.

That page, BTW, is where you'll find the D2D patch when it comes out.
