Hey guys,
Back from the UK today and happy to be releasing patch notes. The PS3 dropped today, the 360 will be released by MS, I hope to have exact confirmation on a time/date in a bit.

A noticeable reduction in amount of fly balls missed by outfielders (both the target and slowing down before a fly ball is caught have been fixed).
Tuned overall slider values to get a better stand alone game, based on community suggestions
Turned down Home Runs, should see dramatic improvement in amount of home runs hit during game play.
AI aggressiveness tweaked – AI will take more balls
Throwing in the “Red” was way harder than the best “Green” spot so maximum strength lowered in the red
In-game crash resolved when not opening the Pitch Overlay hud and then bringing in another pitcher. Will resolve late inning crashes.
Added variety so that all fielders arm strength isn’t so similar. Now the better arm strength fielders will make a difference.
Fixed the bug that was causing the catcher to disappear when switched with a DH.
There was another bug fixed when substituting the catcher and the DH that would cause the umpire to throw the ball backwards.
Added more variety in pitching by making the gesture be a little harder to nail down “perfectly”
Fixed a bug where the base runner would JOG home (Sacrifice fly and ground balls)
Tweaked the issue where the 1st baseman’s foot would come off the bag too easily resulting in a lot of infield hits that should have been routine outs.
Pitchers will now walk off the mound after the 3rd strikeout in an inning.
Tuned numbers to fix the fact that pickoffs were too easy, especially at second base.
Increased the delivery speed of the animations from the stretch to improve throwing out the AI when they attempted to steal.
Pitcher rotation bug fixed where users in leagues would have their first bench player put in as their starting pitcher. They could adjust the starting pitcher but never get their bench player back to their line up. This would eventually lead to a crash.
The user was unable to send a trade when having nine pitchers or eleven hitters on their roster in a fantasy draft league online. That has been resolved
Online - Menu - The Winning/Losing Streak will now populate correctly when viewing the Card Battle Leader boards.
League settings changes now will take affect immediately.
Audio settings get reset when going online.

There are a lot of other things, including some franchise stuff, but they are more minor and countless. I am sure you'll come across them, but these are the major updates.

The patch released for PS3 (but your retarded if you have it for PS3 and not the show). Good news for xbox owners especially online players like myself because they fixed all the online league bugs and the intense amounts of HR that were hit. Patch should be released for 360 owners by opening day

about time they gave some more info. but damn microsoft just release the patch

 

[Dmac]

you ps3 guys are ridiculous, the 3 rings are equivalent to any other piece of electronics that breaks. at least microsoft fixes it for free

 

[Dmac]

big 2k fan? no. its just annoying seeing people complain about the RROD. we all know it happens so whats the point about making threads about it? also if you actually take care of your system and dont treat it like a piece of shit then it will last you. btw id take live over ps3's shitty service anyday

 

[Maynard]

Yeah I saw all those RROD stories in "the arcade". I don't think I could invest $200 in that shit.

hell man, for $200 u can get a brand new 360. i wouldnt worry so much about the rrod issue. the new chipset on the 360 has resolved that issue. It still happens, but its about as often as the ps3. The old chipset was flawed, people with an older system can potentially get the rrod at any time. I had it happen once, they fixed it and its worked great ever since. The system is now 3 years old, so if it dies now then i am ok with it that. With as many hours i spend on it i feel i got my moneys worth

but for u, $200 will get you the arcade version which doesnt have a hard drive. but for $300 u can get the pro system with a 20gig drive and the HD cable...this is the best value imo.....

i dont know who the pete is that is selling u a used system for $200, but you better tell him to clean his fucking loop cause your not paying that much for a used 360

You actually get a 60 gig harddrive with the xbox now for $300 I beleive unless it was just a promotional thing that was short term

Why the hell do you guys need to turn ever 2k and show thread into a console war, there's a thread for that it's annoying as hell to read the same argument in every single thread across the boards
