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

[adayinthelife]

I'm ok thus far after a couple of games on my PS3. I haven't tried cross platform on my Vita since 1.16, but it was working fine after 1.06. I started my franchise with Knight's rosters on whatever day they were released, so whichever version we were at then (1.05?) is what was used to start up my franchise. Again, I've not run into any issues thus far, though I did have to sim the last week and a half of April due to 1.06 ****ing things up for other people/messing with cross-platform saves.

My franchise is mid-May at the moment. I'm a little unclear as to the ASG issues people are having though - is it only those who were right around that date in their franchises, or will I have issues when I get there down the road in mine?

I am in mid June in my franchise. I should be good to go since I am before the all-star break right? However, will I encounter the postseason games gone missing box score issue? Thanks.

I had a season that I had started prior to 1.06. I think I had only played one day of that season when 1.06 dropped. I downloaded that patch, and never had a problem with freezes.

I also downloaded 1.16 when it came out and never had a problem.

I recently uploaded the season to the cloud(Vita), just to see if that would work properly.

Everything appears ok there.

There is one mysterious thing though. The game played between Oakland and Seattle on Thursday, April 5 has completely disappeared. It's like the game wasn't even played although the stats for the players in that game appeared to stay.

I guess it's no big deal, but those teams look like they are going to only play 161 games now.

I wonder if the devs took that game out on purpose to avoid any freezes. I know it was one of the problems with the 1.06 patch because the scheduled changed on that release.

Interesting. I guess that could be? I was too scared of checking anything in the month of April when 1.06 dropped and people were having all those issues.

My RTTS is now hosed with this patch (1.16). I crash 100% when I try to advance. I'm one game past the All-Star Break with a 12-0 Pitcher who I sunk a bunch of real money into. Not very pleased. Wish I had checked here first to see if the patch was okay. Are they working on a fix?

Update: just saw on page 49 that this is a known issue and that a fix is being worked on by SCEA.

My post about scea being aware was about the missing box scores issue. I would assume they are aware about the freezes too, but I didn't actually talk to anyone about that one, so I want to make that clear. I can PM tomorrow (posting from iphone or else id do it now) morning and ask...

Someone else is welcome to PM also if they so desire... Just post here if you do, since I don't want 40 of us all PMing one guy about the same thing...

BPBlues- quick question, did it freeze only after you advanced past the ASB?
Meaning, you downloaded 1.16 played a few games(or even 1 or 2), pre ASB, then as soon as the ASB came and went, then the game froze?

Or, you were right at the ASB, downloaded the patch, and went to play and it froze?

I only ask because I am tyring to really decide if I want to move on with one of my RTTS. Each year I do one totally legit player, with harder settings/sliders. I also do one player that I roid out with RTTS points. I'd hate to lose the 20.00 or so bucks I spent on this guy because the game freezes once I get to the ASB break.

Any info is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
