General

Hid the Upload options when not signed in.
Pitcher fatigue is properly set when loading back into a previously saved game.
Fixed problems where screenshots were corrupted prior to uploading to 2k Share.

MLB Today & MLB Today Season

Fixed crash in MLB Today based on schedule updates
Fixed crash when restoring default roster.
Fixed to properly use the date/time from the schedule to determine time of day for the game.

Gameplay

Fixed the rate on bad swing reactions, which was sometimes nearly 2x while player took several steps on camera
Improved the look of gathers in certain uncommon situations.
Fixed the "auto pitch" bug after a double switch.
Improved the base runner responsiveness when making decisions to advance and retreat with a ball in play.
Improved the playability of rundown throws. Previously they were too hard due to the fill speed of the throwing meter
Improved the base runner responsiveness when tagging up and launching from a base.
Improved the player�s paths when leaving the field and heading back to the dugouts.
Added code that helps eliminate errant check swings and throws to incorrect bases. Mostly for PS3 and PC users.

Online

Added a missing pause timer in the pitcher substitution menu.
Improved the outfielder reaction for online games. Users won�t miss balls that should be caught due to slow reaction times.
Adjusted pitch speed slider settings for ALLSTAR and LEGEND difficulty levels. This increases the difficulty for online gameplay.

My Player

Fixed bug where game length could be set to 3 innings by setting it in Play Ball.
Fixed a crash that occurred when looking for season goals.
Fixed a bug with career messages not properly adding when the list is full. This issue led to a crash on PS3.
Fixed a bug where a pitch speed would decrease after completing a drill reward.
Fixed a bug where off-speed pitches decrease in speed after receiving an award from a drill.

They lied about the 24 hours!!!!! GET YOUR PITCHFORKS!!!!!!! :P

Has the 360 patch been pushed out yet?

Just started up the game and it went straight in with no patch update.

# 24 mlb08 @ 06/03/12 06:14 AM

Thats all? what a joke...

Why didnt they fix auto fielding especially outfield. All the nice catches are made majority of the time.
Too many strikeouts hasnt been fixed also.
Must fix framerate issues, its like lag later into the game.
The first pitch hitting is getting annoying now, must address AI hitting logic.
Have some improvements on franchise mode..

Waiting for a nice patch and this all you can give us 2k? Unbelievable....2k you suck...

# 25 wudl83 @ 06/03/12 07:11 AM

there are obvious lapses in the gameplay and they fix such things? oh. my. god.

2k **** you, I am done.

# 26 shogunofharlem3 @ 06/03/12 01:51 PM

Has the 360 patch dropped yet? I just loaded up the game and I didn't get any prompt. Thanks in advance.

some of you guys really need to realize this is a game, not virtual reality.

What does that have to do with them not fixing the gameplay?

I don't think anyone of us don't realize it's just a game.

But when you pay $60 every year for a product which is flawed, and basic gameplay fixes aren't implemented we have every right as a consumer to be a little irked at the company responsible.

Of all the gameplay issues that could be tweaked (MLB Today, crashes, fielding, camera issues etc.) they spent months working on an animation to make the walk back to the dugout more realistic?

The optimistic hope that they will put out a good product.

Plus there's no other option for the 360 for a baseball game.

I understand your point but that doesn't change the fact that as a consumer I'm free to have my opinions on the game.

# 31 kumala @ 06/03/12 04:52 PM

i tried to like this game but it's time to move on. I like the pc version, because of the mods.

# 32 nbman @ 06/03/12 07:55 PM

fyi - the patch is now live on the 360.

# 33 Santino @ 06/03/12 08:20 PM

I got nothing.

So because you CHOOSE to pay " $60.00 every year for a product which is flawed" you blame 2k? How about wising up and not wasting your money. If your comment is true than you have only yourself to blame. How about complaining by not spending your money. I swear, I'm starting to believe that some of you could not go ONE YEAR without purchasing one of these games even when you know you will be disappointed and that's sad.

Try removing the disk, clear the cache. Then try again.

???? What other option do people have on 360. No **** they are allowed to complain.

Like others have said, there is a lack of options for the 360 and I enjoy baseball enough to deal with the flaws.

For the most part, the game is pretty enjoyable but there's no doubting it's flawed.

Every new version of the game you hope and pray that they fix gameplay issues or at least address them in patches.

After seeing what's included in the last patch I have every right to complain, whether you or others like it or not.

2k's Internet forums page says there is.

Whatever that means, lol

The travesty is that we as consumers don't have many options when choosing a sports game due to monopolistic rights exclusives. The fall of 2K baseball means pc gamers are without both a baseball and football option.
