MLB 12 The Show Game Update 1.16 Arrives, Details Included - Post Your Impressions

[Bobhead]

Well me being the random and free-spirited person I am, I got tired of the game asking me to download the patch, so instead of disconnecting my PS3 I just... downloaded the patch.

Before this current patch, I was a part of the group that continued their old franchise despite prevalent, but avoidable, freezing issues.

I just checked every single team's schedule, for both april and may, checked certain box scores that previously caused my game to freeze, and started a game. I even checked a bunch of other random box scores, notably a few from those weeks in april that caused most of the fuss.

I have had no freezes at all.

Agreed on that assessment. I still haven't dl'd 1.16

My franchise was started post 1.06, so I am pretty sure I am in the clear, but wary of pulling the trigger.

Its not laziness imo its more like a lack of competence to put out a patch that doesnt break the game. Still no word on fixing crossplay...smh...getting tired of waiting on SCEA to get their act together.

All I know is that since installing the new patch....my RTTS pitcher has suddenly lost the ability to spot his change up. No matter where I aim it goes in one of two places....a foot off the plate or right down the middle....really frustrating.

In fact....most of my pitches seem to be going in random directions.....ugh

Sounds like some patch frustration carrying over into your gameplay :-p

Of course I'm only one guy, and we have a plethora of tangents and variables to consider here.

But like I said, I have no freezing. My pre-1.06 franchise file was EXACTLY like such a franchise file that would be created (or saved), by the patch-less Playstation Vita. The only question is whether or not this patch is designed to safely regress back to the Vita

For those of you who are downloading this patch anyway... Just try it. You can transfer to the cloud, load it on your Vita, and mess around with stuff, then transfer back. Just don't save over your original, native, franchise file. I think it will work, but if it doesn't, you can just delete all your cloud stuff and you'll be in the same position you are in right now.

It literally doesn't hurt to try. Just remember once you download the patch, there's no going back.

I'd still recommend a zip drive backup to everyone before pulling the trigger. But other than that...

What Bobhead said.

Downloaded the patch before I read all of this. I can't advance my franchise at all now. Anytime I try to play the next game or sim to date it locks up. This is terrible and I hope that it is fixed immediately.
