custom camera doesn't work online..

Boooo

Haven't tried online yet. Thanks for letting us know.

What is your thoughts on the camera? I almost feel like it is cheesing...

I have enjoyed the hell out of this game, but I wish there was a way we could instantly refuse losers picking top 3 teams and had the ability to choose our uniforms.

Just back out of the team selection screen if they pick those teams.

Custom camera fucks with the ball physics online. They removed it two years ago.

In quick online games, you have no clue who you/re playing.

[Sven Draconian]

Anybody actually playing this online still.

If so, add me ( ks47 )

I miss my RTTS career from last year :cmpunk:

My PS3 died right after I got called up and was batting over .300

Ive made like 7 Diamond dynasty teams, still in early stages losing with generics to gain money..every dumb ass in the country just pitches at the ground figuring youll either strike out or get a poor contact...and it appears if you are the home team, some of the settings you pick are the ones used by both..every idiot uses rookie so the yellow circle is huge...or they put it on timing hitting and hit it deep with no talent or practice

Patch coming out tonight at 3AM PST I'm reading.

- In offline and online games, there was an occasional hitch/millisecond delay just as the pitcher would release the pitch. This was reported with a frequency ranging from approximately 10%

- 40%. The title was writing data to the HDD at this point, causing the brief, but noticeable hiccup in the gameplay. When the title writes to the HDD has been adjusted, and this hitch/delay will no longer occur.

- Franchise Fantasy Draft blank screen in Standard Def only. This was reported with a 100% frequency. In a Franchise mode, when performing a Fantasy Draft, the first round worked correctly. Every round after the first round would have a blank list of available players and drafted players. User could scroll through the empty list and choose players, but the player names were invisible. This was standard definition only. This has been fixed.

- In online games, there was a very rare crash when putting a Pinch Hitter into the game. This was reported with a frequency of approximately 2% - 10%. Multiple pinch hit substitutions in the same inning could eventually result in a crash. This was fixed.

- In a Franchise game, while playing with the Houston Astros, an On Screen Display showing division team comparisons would show the Houston Astros in their old National League division. This has been fixed.

- Challenge of the Week - In game real time leaderboard would disappear/reappear frequently. This was reported with a 100% frequency. In game leaderboard on the right side of the screen would flicker in and out on almost every pitch. This has been fixed.

- Online Game Rooms - Within a game room, we changed the terminology within Challenge Options pop-up. We removed the text "(Tracked)" as well as the text "(Unranked, Untracked)" from the top two challenge options within a game room. This was not a bug, but it caused some confusion with consumers. Safe text change that has been addressed.

- Online - Timing batting was available for users in an online game. This was reported with a frequency of 100%. This setting was never intended for online gameplay and has been removed.

- Within an online game created through a Game Room, users did not have the ability to Concede or Friendly quit through the Quit option. This was reported with a frequency of 100%. Concede/Friendly quit has been added to the Quit game menu.

- Offline gameplay - Following a Fast Forward in any gameplay mode, the Pitcher would throw a fastball down the middle with about 90% frequency. This has been fixed.

- Use Custom rosters in Leagues. Create some custom (created players) players and upload them to the rosters and form a league that way. Once the league is formed, make sure every teams roster can be generated. Specifically, any team that has a created player on that roster. Key step to this is when uploading a Roster, user must choose LOAD ROSTER FROM HD or LOAD ROSTER FROM VAULT

- Create a league (Load weekly roster during creation process) and have any user control the Minnesota Twins - After activating the league, go to Manage Roster (for the Twins) and generate lineups and rosters. At this point (In PROD), user would receive an error message and the lineups would never be generated. Error Message: (Sorry, we could not generate a valid roster/lineup/rotation with the given players) Key step to this is when uploading a Roster, user must choose LOAD WEEKLY ROSTER.

- Four significant Art changes:
1. Addition of new 2013 Post Season logos. These can be viewed throughout the front end, and in game easily in PostSeason mode. Logos can appear in the frontend bracket screens, load screen bracket screens, on the field logos, and during on screen display pop-ups.
2. Batting Practice hats for the Cleveland Indians. Removed an outdated logo batting hat.
3. San Francisco AT&T stadium - There was a Minnesota Twins logo in the dirt of the pitching mound.
4. Toronto Stadium - There was a large section of seating that appeared grey instead of blue (behind 1st or 3rd base). This was reported with a frequency of 100%. The art files have been changed to reflect the proper seat colors.

- Online user vs user games - Concede/Friendly Quit option has been added to the quit menu in games formed and played through Game Rooms

- Fixed an occasional hang that occured when loading a save file that was autosaved after purchasing budget in the Manage Contracts screen.

- Fixed an issue that would cause older players in season/franchise modes to regress at a faster pace than intended.

- Fixed an issue with the one and two handed follow through setting in Edit Player. Two handed follow through was not carrying over into game.

- Manager mode - All batters due up were being displayed as "L" for left handed batter. This has been fixed in HD displays.

- Manager mode - Pitcher would never pitchout until it was requested by the manager. Pitcher will now occasionaly pitch out when the time is appropriate, when user selects Play Ball.

- Fixed an issue where 2013 Hall of Fame players were not showing up.

- Post game celebartion following a win. SF Giants were walking to/from the wrong dugout. This has been fixed.

- Fixed a minor bug that affected Starting Pitcher energy in League games.

- End of inning music was missing in offline Fast Play games. This has been fixed.

- Fixed an issue that caused the Mercy rule to appear incorrectly at the end of certian online games.

Server Fixes::
# Twitter feeds fix
>> Twitter feeds should now show up with today's Tweets # New telemetry TSD file
# Updated player skill ranks
>> Using Play Now Rated games, users were staying at the Rookie level and not graduated to Veteran, All-Star, Hof, Legend. They should now move up and down based on Rating.

# Game reset fix for playoff games
>> Playoff games were unable to be reset. Now they can.

# Fixed league injury healing
>> When a player got injured if you set him to Inactive, "games returned" would never reduce. If you left him on the Active roster, it would count down. So doing it right punished users with a bug.

# DD: Arena card colors adjusted to match new number ranges
>> A+ cards should now be platinum, platinum cards should always be A+. Using the Recylcer should provide a platinum card.

# DD: Quality generation moved to after the aptitude is picked
>> Same test as above.

# DD: APT cards cannot be sold for wrong prices anymore
>> To repro, you can create a buy order for a high Aptitude DD card. You yourself (or another user) could put up a sell order with a lower Aptitude DD card and qualify for that Buy Order.

# DD: arena game summaries matched to histories by game_id

I wish something could be done about quick online games. If I'm facing yet another loser who just picks Toronto, I should have the right to quit without taking a loss.

I don't really care about my record, but when I take the Pirates and find out I'm facing the Jays and ask for a friendly quit before pitch one, I should get it.

I am a Jays' fan, but never get to use my team because I refuse to be a front-runner. I like to pick a lot of different teams.

We really need a VSN MLB The Show tourney. I have adopted the Pirates as my 2013 team, because I prefer the NL and no DH and I didn't want to pick a front-runner.

Sweet, pretty quick with a massive update already, fixing a bunch of pain in the ass issues.

[Sharkweather]

Fixed an issue that would cause older players in season/franchise modes to regress at a faster pace than intended.

One step closer to startin' the franchise.

[krulmichael]

@ the update!

[Maynard]

waaaaaa. god dam, get out of your belief that your way is the way everyone should play. you are playing randoms and you are crying cause they use the best team...well, wtf do you expect? who gives a shit if they use the jays? what...u cant win? the team with the nest ratings is not the team that wins...this isnt madden 04 ya know.

then u say u dont care about your record....well if you dont care about your record then who cares about backing out and taking a loss.

i might just buy this game so i can play you indians at jays 10 times so you see the jays dont mean shit.
