CPU Comeback BS

[Herm]

FT CPu comeback is an option in the sliders, so i dont know Russell would say it doesnt exist. You can set CPU comeback to on or off but alot of guys report the CPU comes back more if you set it to off than if you set CPU comeback to on.

You misunderstood what I was saying. Obviously the comeback is an option but people are complaing about a combeack code/glitch that no matter what you have it set to the CPU will comeback. Russell tested and denied the glitch/code exists. Others have tested and confirmed Russell's findings as well.

I might do that. To be honest it ruined my chise I was really into. Up 6-0 on the Nats and then all of a sudden they crush 6 home runs, then take the lead then I score 4 runs in the 9th only to have them match me with two outs.

CPU comeback bs kills all sports games. I remember playing Madden and Michael Vick scampered 99 yards with time expiring in the half to tie the game. Now in the show the cpu always matches your run total in the very next inning.

Madden will soon drop and I personally will no longer give a shit about any games, even something as great as the show.

I'm anxious to see if krul saw any difference when turning it on.

Well, I can't say that it worked or if it didn't. I told you at the top of the 4th that I decided to turn the option "ON" when it was tied 2-2 (after I scored 2 runs on a 2-run shot at the top of the 1st) and then the CPU came back and scored 2 runs in the 2nd inning to tie it back up. Anyways, after turning it on at the top of the 4th, there were no more runs scored until the 10th inning...it was a defensive battle until then. At the top of the 10th, I hit a solo shot, brought in my closer at the bottom of the 10th, they bring in a pinch-hitter for there pitcher...what happens, he hits a homerun deep to left field that just barely went over the wall, hitting the foul pole in the process. Games tied up 3-3. After that, I got the next 3 batters out with ease.

Then at the bottom of the 11th, just brought in a new reliever, his second pitch of the night, hit to deep right field, just got over the wall for the walkoff win for the CPU.

So I guess after typing it and relieving it, it does sound like there was some work of The Show Gods at work. I'm not quite sure what to say anymore, I really enjoy the game but it would be nice to have a 8-2 win every once in awhile and not the constant 1 run victory.

I'll continue later on tonight to try my Chise games with Comeback AI "ON" and see if this was just one game or what not.

Cheap plug here, but hell I need it since it seems barely anyone checks out my Chise (or least doesn't post in it, lol). Check out results here (click the banner to go to my Franchise Report:

we all know russel is a bitch, we all know theres comeback code in the game

[Justo]

wat a bitch

Is this a new problem people are experiencing? I'm not gonna call Russell a liar frankly because I haven't had the game in about a month and when I had it the game seemed perfectly fine as far as comebacks go. If anything, I found my pitchers to be too dominant on the mound (maybe that's just me but idk).

What are the older guys on here that have been playing chises since launch saying? Guys like Mike, T.Dot, etc.

I know you've been playing since launch Houtz, but you were also an online guy and online and offline is way different.

One of the reasons I had no problem trading my PS3 for a 360.

Shit ruined the game for me.

[krulmichael]

LMAO @ that convo with Russell. Sounded like you were talking to an EA guy. ;)

But to someone that said it may be sliders, I'm using default All-Star (or is it HoF...lmao, I don't even remember, it's one of them on default) and things like that happen to me. Although not 6 runs, I was up 4-0 on the Cubs (granted, they aren't the Nats) in about the bottom of the 4th inning. I ended up losing the game 7-4, lol.

I completely understand things like this happen sometimes, but when it's every game it's a bit ridiculous. I would LOVE to have one blowout, an 8-2 game or something like that. Can't even remember the last time I did that.

[krulmichael]

Funny, I thought the same thing. Blaming it on the user. Not buying it.

I tried to find us an answer but no dice. Guess we'll have to deal :dontknow:

Guess so, listening to him sound so damn confident in it though. I'm thinking maybe I should try it a little longer with the CPU Comeback "Off" and "change my pitching tendencies" lol.

[chazmaniandevil]

someone did that and proved russell wrong, then russell used the "if you wear a different shirt different stuff happens too" technique

[T.Dot]

I have had this problem, in fact I had a game with the Twins last week in which I was up fucking 9-0 in the bottom of the nineth and they scored 11 runs to come back and win. This has happened two or three games lately for me all with it turned off

I have no idea what Russell is talking about but it is definetely a bug, Roy Halladay was pitching for me and I am not a bad player at all and there is no fucking way that happens in real life.

[krulmichael]

lol. If you get a pretty big lead seriously save the game and play it out a few times. See if what he's saying is true.

Will do man, I just started game 2 of my 3 game series against the Rockies, if I get a big lead I will. Playing with Comeback AI "OFF" by the way.

[FirstTimer]

It exists man. It doesn't happen every game for me, but it does happen. Some games it seems that when I don't score they don't either, and than once I score at the top or bottom of the inning, they will literally put up the same number of runs or more. At first I was just like dammm i need to get better, but after seeing this at least 10/40 games I've played in franchise, it needs fixing next year.

Theres a minimal chance they'd post an update this late into a game just because they're already in the dev stages of MLB 2010, and they don't want to waste time/money making an update just for our pleasure. It'd have to be something to increase sales if they wanted to do an update.. .I know just because I'm a mod for 2K, and 2K defines what I just said. SCEA probably does it to a point also.

Hopefully they announce they fixed in when next year comes around. This isn't a game killer for me, but it does get annoying sometimes, and I don't have the problem every game, so thats one good thing.

I'm just at about the trade deadline in my chise and have seen nothing I'd label as a comeback code. I played two games this weekend for example and won 3-2 and 9-0 as the Cubs over the Cardinals and Reds respectively.

IMO the "comeback code" has more to do with clutch ratings between the pitcher and hitter than anything else but After about the first month of the season I have had no problem locking guys down with relievers if I take my time and really spot my pitches.

[mfbmike]

Sounds like a L2P issue.

[T.Dot]

Last game I played in my chise verifies there is a comeback code; Rays were down 9-2 and beat me 12-11
