Yes all other games are fine I never move the ps3. And this disc has no sctratches at all on it

After 5 or 6 games played into my pre patch franchise, I'm not noticing any of these freezing issues.

However... I have noticed something disturbing that I hope to god gets fixed.

Every single game I have played, I have hit at least 5 home runs. Including 4 in one game from Dustin Pedroia. I love Pedey as much as any Sox fans, but I shouldn't be able to hit that many (at Toronto's ball park no less) with him.

I get players have hot streaks.. but this is ridiculous.

It's the same as a pitcher. I have given up very few hits since the patch (I'm good at striking out the AI.) but almost all of them are ridiculously powerful. Sinkers down in the zone are going all over the place. And I'm no expert, but generally sinkerball pitchers get lucky with groundouts. I still get a good amount of ground balls, but I gave up 3 home runs in one game off the sinker. And they were fading away from the batter too. So I'm just a little irritated with that.

Aside from that, the patch doesn't seem to have changed a lot for me. I'm hoping they fix what they broke when it comes to RTTS, since I'm almost confident it froze mine. And I am not starting a new one for a while.

I'm sure many have used his rosters. I seem to be the first to have this issue. Any ideas why?

If it's only happening when you visit free agency, there is a roster integrity issue with that custom roster.

I would take a look at the transactions list and check to see who was released. There may be a "bad" player on the FA List or somehow the max/min number of players on the roster was breached, causing the freeze.

Do all other teams have a full roster?

Quick question....I have a pre 1.06 franchise started on my PS3 that I used clouds save with my Vita. I'm in the last week of April or so. Once 1.06 came out and I saw so many people have problems I decided to not download. Can I continue this franchise with new patch 1.16 and updating my VITA so I can take advantage of cloud saves again? Or do I need to start new Franchise?

Hallo Guys,

I'm not sure. Was it the first Seattle-Oakland game? That's the one that disappeared for me yet the stats the players accumulated during that game stayed with them.

Yes that's correct, I play the A's.

So I got a new copy of the game and a new hard drive. Let's hope for the best.

# 549 udo0928 @ 05/13/12 10:20 PM

New game new hard drive. Froze again

Not trying to sound like an A-hole, but I'm not sure what to tell you at this point.

Wow! After reading through this whole thread I have decided not to get the game after all. I was excited to wake up in the morning , take my Son to school and drop by walmart to pick it up, but just way too many bugs and way too many disappointed owners of the game.

From now on I am waiting before I buy any sports game to read what others have to say about them. I am not going to buy a guy only to have it take up a spot in my game rack and just collect dust.

Thanks to all in advance who have posted their issues about the game, "sigh" sucks but I guess no baseball game for me again this year.

All the people who are having these bugs seem to be players who started the game pre patch.

Since you haven't picked up the game yet, you have no files to corrupt. At the very worst, you just don't update to the latest patch.

Don't let a few people and a patch scare you off this game. It's the best baseball game on the market, and no game is without it's bugs.

I haven't even experienced any bugs yet. So I'm not sure how to react to all these people who are having bugs.

# 553 udo0928 @ 05/14/12 03:55 AM

Well I'm working with a new HDD and no patches downloaded and I'm still having problems. I say pass.

Update thru today 5/14/2012 :I have played all games ( RTTS ) into July 2016 & Season 2012 , again I have still had no problems with either patches ( no freezes what so ever ). NOTE: I only play Season and RTTS and no online

Don't let the updates scare you away from an amazing baseball game !!!

I think people are being a bunch of babies. So restart your franchise life goes on.... simulate a couple games.

Same here. No problems whatsoever, and I started my RTTS on release day, and my franchise the day OSFM Spring released. I even made a video of me trying to get it to freeze. I've tried other times to try to get both my franchise and RTTS (which is past the All-Star break) to freeze, with no luck.

I think the majority of people are NOT having problems, but we typically only see post from people who are experiencing issues.

I definitely don't see any reason to forego the game, especially if you don't already have it. These are the people who are most likely not to have any problems.

Yep.

Its like a complaints show, those with problems shout loudest (and rightfully so), its the other 98% who stay silent you never hear from. Why? Because they have no problems at all.

# 558 StewieShotU @ 05/14/12 11:13 AM

Ok! lol, I will give it a shot because I have never owned any previous "The Show" tittles.

I hear you guys on that only the people who "do" experience problems complaint and rightfully so, but like you guys said, I should not let only the hand few scare me away.

I will give it a shot, heck if I have given Madden the "benefit of a doubt" all these years why not The Show right?

I am on my way to drop off my Son at school and I will be stopping by my local walmart! Thank you guys, you guys suckered me in! lol...

# 559 tnixen @ 05/14/12 11:38 AM

Since installing update 1.16 it seems that MLB 12 The Show freezes everytime when viewing replays after the game is over.

And I have to keep hitting the power button on my PS3 to restart it

Is this a known issue or will I need to uninstall and reinstall the game?

LOL, I read the last part of the first sentence totally wrong initially.

Not that I have anything against Walmart, but I remember seeing a deal on the game for $50 somewhere.

You've got to be kidding me. I wasn't buying the fact this game got blindly defended around here before but seeing these posts (moreso from two long-time supporting members) is starting to make me think otherwise. I really don't see how the people that are legitimately getting problems should be brushed off as "just being babies". That's a joke.

Yeah, because I was definitely blindly defending the game where? I gave my experience thus far, that just happens to be positive (sorry my game isn't broken). Actually going back, I do see where you may see where I was calling someone a baby, looking at the quoted text of someone saying it. That was an incorrect quote, obviously since my reply had no relevance to the quote (should have been a quote of legacyme3's post.) All in all, I've been trying to help people with their issues, and offer possible feedback.

And as for the second part of my post, I explained to StewieShotU, that since he doesn't have the game he shouldn't see many of the issues he read about. No misleading. No defending. No saying what he read didn't exist.
