You just turn on your PS3 with the game disc in or put the game disc in and select it and follow the instructions that automatically come up.

TY, because i went on sports connect, but it didnt say anything about a patch? is it a seperate download, or does it do it automatically?

[tkoui]

The patch is detected automatically when the game first loads if you're connected to PSN.

EDIT: I should mention that I'm referring to PS3.

Its silly, I've tried everything. Only time I get highlites is when I don't use the bullpen. Russell spoke in the word of the Jedi in some other thread that we would see replays in due time. Don't know if that means its safe to start a franchise or not though.

Just played Tigers vs. Indians on HOF. won 6-1 on a 3 hitter but used the Bull Pen in the 7th, 8th and 9th ining as my starter had close to 100 pitches after 6. No replays to be found. The replay vault stopped working after the Relievers came in so no highlites.

I've deleted everything 3 times now so I'm done doing that now. I'll just live with it.

Russell clarified after a bunch of us screamed bloody murder (and DrUrses tested and found it only "stuck" for simmed games and not in-game) that it was fixed for simulation only and a workaround was needed for the rest. The lineup issue wasn't really fixed, as when it resets the lineups due to stamina, etc it will do so based on whatever you have the ratings at (likely why Soriano was swapped). Really, the best course of action is to apply Knight's lineup edits AND use Doc's Roster Control Workaround, IMO.

Yeah, the strange thing is though it seemed like the lineups had been somewhat fixed. Soriano is the best example and another one is Tori Hunter. The CPU likes to put Napoli in the cleanup spot and move Hunter down to like eight! I played the Angels-Yankees game last night and Hunter was fifth. Everything seemed fine. Then, I noticed the Cubs getting batty today with Bradley leading off.

Fortunately I do have a franchise with Knight's lineups and ratings tweaking and a postpatch franchise with Knight's stock set. So, I've been going back and forth comparing the two.

One nice thing about the prepatch franchise is that the Cubs' home games got corrected somehow. I'm just gonna play up that positive!

Im in the same boat as you fist of rage. Im hoping i don't get a franchise crash so I can live with not having post game highlights for a while...and hearing what Russell said i am confident that SCEA will have it working for us in no time.

Wow, I havent seen this much craziness over a patch since..quick story, long time ago there was a game called front page sports football for the PC, it was going to give us finally the ability to play football but but be able to build a franchise, draft free agents etc, this is when Madden was still basically a arcade game. Anyway when it first came out , it got a huge following and it didnt even have the nfl license, eventually it did. after about 3 years/versions we thought this is the year when it was all was coming together. Game came out..was a mess, crashes bugs, totally unplayable. We kept getting promised a patch,and when it finally did, made the game crash more. They offered money back, and then told everybody that was it. 3 months later Dynamix who made the game got absorbed by Vivendi and it was gone never to be seen again. TRUST me when i say this, be thankful, not saying fan boys but appreciate what we have. Make criticism constructive and just play the game, have fun.

Yo SLTHTREE! I dont give a **** what you have to say! You talk all this. Dude im a loyal customer and love the product. I came here to find a solution to my problem because that's what all us consumers want. Now in that post I was joking while wanting information. Your lucky your hiding behind the screen because you disrespect me in person and you wouldnt get away with it so easy! Id hurt you!, but instead ill be the bigger man and leave it at this. We came to get answers and not more issues then came with this PATCH. Now SLTHTREE grab that fist of yours, knuckles up and shove it up your *** until it reaches your throat and you choke to death! At the end. Hopefully we get some news and thank you doc for being helpful.Im going to try erasing and redoing.
