MLB 09: The Show Patch Released 4/27/09 - Impressions and Discussion Here

[tbigwhoop]

To recap: If my franchise or RTTS has not frozen thus far after I have downloaded the recent 1.06 patch, is it safe to say I can continue with it with absolutely no worries?

What I LOVE about this game is how it rewards you for being patient at the plate. I absolutely love getting into hitters counts, and walking really makes me happy since I am lucky to get 1 or 2 a game. More walks are there, but I swing at ball 4 a lot.

I'm in the same boat. I usually have a TV on while I game (a 2nd TV) to watch movies etc, especially during NCAA and Madden. But with The Show, i have to turn everything off to focus. I HATE swinging at ball 4 and i almost celebrate more when i walk then when i score.

Pitching kills me. I find myself talking at the TV alot when im pitching and give up a hit on a 1-2 count.

Anyone else confirm this? It will suck to have to start over but I'd rather grin and bear it now instead of in July.

What date did your franchise crash?

Is that a franchise that was already started before you DL'd the patch, or after?

LOL, I know what you mean. Today, I was playing a game, but I always have an MLB.TV game on on my computer while I am playing. The real life Cubs did something good, and Len Casper started going wild, screaming and stuff, and he caused me to strike out in my game. D*** it Casper! It was a big spot too. I ended up winning 3-2, so alls well that ends well.
Anyway, I think I may have to lower the volume from now on.
I'm too much of a multitasker to turn everything off though. Maybe for the playoffs (if I make the playoffs ).
