Are there any changes noticeable regarding the problem that the cutt-off man doesn't advance the ball to homeplate although he could while a runner comes home? If fielding and baserunning looks smoother and the thing I stated is fixed than 2k12 could be a big game. If only the pinch hitting would be adressed.

Only solution now it would seem is to make the move for the CPU, but I think you would need to wait until you unlock all of the profile related achievements before switching sides in-game in order to make lineup corrections for the CPU. That way your profile still gets credit for the in-game stuff you do. Otherwise if you don't care about achievements then just take control of CPU team to make their in-game subs.

To be honest I do think that there aren't any achievements for the PC version, right? At least I never noticed anything like that, although when switching sides while the game is going on a notification shows up (I never read it, to be honest, don't care for anything like that).

That's what I've been doing with this series since forever, heh. I've even subbed in defensive replacements and pinch runners for the CPU. You don't really play as a manager in MLB 2K, you play as commissioner/god.

Agreed LoL. I control all teams in my franchise, and I will make in-game subs once I get those achievements out of the way.

Gameplay is no doubt smoother... BUT just as dumb as it's always been.

Example: I had a runner at 1B and hit a routine double-play ball to 2B. He JUST STOOD THERE...and then, after it was WAY too late, threw the ball to 1B. I then proceeded to score 4 more runs...but it felt cheap.

Typical 2K... Plug one hole, but leave many still undone. Even after the patch, I'd give this game a 7.0 on a scale of 10. Not terrible, but still light years away from being a solid, simulation like baseball experience.
