ok, can anyone else start a brand new franchise, sim past spring training, and see if spring training stats are carrying over into regular season?

I'll check it too when I get home from work and Let Ron2K know about this if it turns out to be true.

Also, I will try again (fresh) when I get home tonight. I haven't DL'ed the patch yet, so if I can get into the game without the patch I'll try it pre and post-patch and report back. I'll probably post my results around 8pm CST tonight or later.

WHY, WHY, WHY???

Why the hell can’t they get a baseball game RIGHT? They’ve had YEARS to get this right, and they still can’t seem to do it. I literally had to jump through hoops to get this game, because the initial impressions were good, much better than last year. So I buy the damn thing, with much trepidation. In the first game, I noticed Jake Peavy strikes out 14 players in 11 innings pitched. WTF?? I figure it might be a one-time thing, but then Buerhle goes out and strikes out 9 while throwing in the area of 125 pitches. Again, WTF?? Soooo, I wait for the patch, download it, thinking “ok the stamina thing got fixed”. LO and behold, I run a couple of games…BOTH starting pitchers (freddy Garcia/Blackburn) pitch the first one to a 1-1 tie into the 7th, and apparently, the stamina issue hasn’t been fixed AT ALL. I’m tempted to trade this F***** game in, because I know I have bought every one of 2k’s baseball games each year, and it has progressively gotten WORSE. I believe the problem is lack of competition. Lets just say that in a miracle we got THE SHOW on the 360: I bet they wouldn’t put out this POS then…ya think? It’s finally starting to sink in that they just don’t give a F***. And I’m the doofus who keeps giving them my money. Sigh…….

Hey Kev, PC version here (obviously no Patch).

Just tested this. Simmed to START of season. In my first game, the announcers & bottom of the stat overlay did say what we did in our last Spring Training game, BUT the actual stat categories were (.000, 0, 0, 0) etc....

League Leaders were all zeroed out as you would expect at the start of the season. As for the Hot/Cold screen. It did list what the players had done in their latest at-bats, but again... All stats were zeroed out at the top of the player card. (See screenshots).

Too me, it looks to be a non-issue as far as affecting Franchise stats. Also, in a franchise I started a few days ago, all players have the correct # of Franchise games played, and at-bats, etc... add up to just those games played in Franchise. Although in my 1st game, I do remember the announcers saying what I did in my last spring training game (also appeared in the bottom of the overlay).

There are so many improvement from 2k9 to 2k10 that it's hard to take your post seriously. If you really think 2k doesn't care I think you need to take a step back and look again. There are bugs yes, but they already put out a patch on 3/16, just 14 days after the game was released AND they're working on another. Let alone the massive improvment the game already is over 2k9 and prior releases as well.

Awesome, perfect.

That is exactly what I was looking for.

(I was nervous too since last night I emailed Ron the updated bug list from 2Kforums and OSforums... ended up being about 45 items listed.... I was nervous I missed a glarring issue...)

Thanks again RGmoney; for the pics and everything...

RGmoney, thanks for the test. I will still test again tonight on 360 - I am almost positive I saw the stats carry over on the player stats screen. And the hot/cold screen is exactly what i saw, although I will admit I don't know if I noticed the player card at the top showing 0's. My eyes immediately drew to the stats since I didn't think anything would be there. Last, again off memory but I think something was up with the power rankings on opening day too but again I can't totally remember. Might we worth taking a look at that screen.

In regards to the rocket arms observation I posted earlier... It seems that many of the outfielders arm strengths are more realistic in terms of their real life capabilities. I am an avid baseball fan and after playing about 8 or 9 post patch games, I am very happy with the lack of rocket arms situations.

I have yet to see one situation where I was left scratching my head to how that throw was even possible.... Once again, I noticed that on the post patch living roster update, as only the night before I had seen several rocket arms.

Hope this continues
