MLB 13: The Show Live Launches

[thaSLAB]

I suspect its an issue similar to the opening day presentation, due to the team records being a day behind. Has anyone played a game from today to see what happens?

Not sure what's puts the records off by one day, but I think its an MLB.com data thing. I say that because I believe this happens in both TS Live and MLB Today modes.

Just a thought. I could be way off.

Those are also in RTTS, including in the minors.

What a disaster this experiment turned out to be.

I played a Show Live version of today's Royals @ Braves game. Not only are the records a day behind, Francisco Rodriguez (who is an unsigned free agent in real MLB) is the Braves long reliever for whatever reason.

Also, there are still TBD players from the first week of the season that have been added into the game since (Jackie Bradley Jr. and Evan Gattis come to mind).

What a mess.

Ya, this mode had lots of hype into it but sadly isn't delivering like everyone expected. On plus side, at least we know SCEA will look to improve this mode next year, unlike if this were EA Sports who'd probably make it worse in the following year.

Nope. You have to use the stock SCEA rosters.

Last night, I did a Show Live version of Braves @ Pirates about two hours after the game ended. Russell Martin was on the Braves...twice. He was listed twice as their catcher. His placement replaced Andrelton Simmons. When he came up for his first at-bat, the game completely wigged out. Martin stood there just swinging his bat around pre-stance. Then it went into that cutscene that plays when the pitcher takes forever to select a pitch. When we returned from the cutscene, there was no batter in the box. The pitcher was just pitching to nobody. He actually walked the invisible batter, but since there was nobody to run to first, the at-bat just kept going until he struck him out.

Hilarious, but very embarassing.

Trying to play today's game between the Rockies-D'backs (1:30pm??), and every time it says that it's Opening Day in Baltimore, and Camden Yards loads as the stadium...
