Now I could be completely missing something or be off on how I interpreted the answers that have been posted previously but thats the way I see it.

Basically the point that's trying to be made is that Knight's rosters are contaminated, and thus cannot be on the Roster Vault. But nothing should stop you from copying the rosters from a thumb drive to the PS3, and start a franchise with them. Like what everyone did last year, right?

Are you asking because you werent aware you could do this from the start or are you basically saying that you are still able to do this after the patch? Previously you would press L2 and your runner would take off on the pitch and it took into account your baserunners speed and steal ability, and it was nice to use when you wanted to hit and run without having to worry about the baserunning otherwise. At this point Im just not going to download the patch, it didnt accomplish anything that helps me at all and I dont want this feature to vanish, nor do I want my franchise crashing so I dont think Im going to be taking any chances.

Chef, didn't you see my post, someone said it still works a few pages back. I haven't verified, but I will for you tonight if no one else does.

Russell, I'm not trying to cause trouble or anything, but is there any hope that the cpu roster control will be addressed in another patch? I know it's on the list of things that were supposed to be fixed with this patch, but as myself and many others have confirmed this still isn't working after the patch (cpu still uses illogical lineups even after you set them correctly with cpu roster control set to ON). Just thought I'd take a shot asking.

But, if Knights rosters are contaminated per SCEA themselves saying it and Knight saying that it sucked but had to be done if it fixed the problem, then what does loading from a thumb drive solve? I cant imagine that simply loading from a thumb drive instead of downloading from the vault caused Knight to say how it sucked but had to be done?

What?!?!?!? The SCEA poster himself says that Knight would have to do the rosters all over, how is it that we can load from a thumb drive while using the patch and solve this problem if he himself is saying that Knight will have to do them all over again? Are you sure your reading all of his posts at this point?

From Knight:

Okay..

The patch doesn't fix rosters with the stat glitch saved. .....which applies to mine....Sorry.
If that's the most important detail in your franchise...you must look elsewhere....sorry.

No more stat glitch talk...sorry!

Loading from the thumb drive solves the problem in which you can't download them from the vault. You can download them from sendspace, etc.

They will still have the stat glitch, but will also be totally usable if you want to start a franchise...

It sucks for Knight cuz if he wants stat glitch free rosters, or rosters of any kind on the vault, he has to start over.

No one is saying it will solve the stupid stat problem, they are saying you can at least use rosters that are complete, although with the stat glitch. Most people don't care about the stat glitch. I sure don't. I just reloaded my franchise with Knights roster and it works, and I also started a new franchise to see it worked and it does.
