MLB 10: The Show Issues Being Addressed

SCEA has sent word that some early issues which have been discovered in MLB 10: The Show are either being fixed or are in the process of being investigated. The two most significant appear to be low “potential” ratings affecting players across the league and the classic stadiums not unlocking with the provided codes.

The classic stadiums are not being opened up for use after entering the pre-order code. While the code is accepted the stadiums remain unavailable and attempting the code again results in an error message. This is server related so once ironed out access to the stadiums should be granted.

There is a bug that has caused many players to have lower “potential” ratings than they should. This is going to be fixed with the next roster update which is expected to arrive on Monday (March 8th).

A thread has been posted at Operation Sports which goes over some of the problems being stumbled upon within Franchise mode with the current status of those being updated.

what about the online bug when you intentionally walk a batter in some instances the game freezes. This happened to me twice online. It really sucks and gives losses to the wrong players.

Although my stadiums are unlocked, it’s requiring me to be connected to the Playstation Network to play in them…. the funny thing is that I am connected and still cannot go in.

Anybody having the shadow glitch? if youre playing a game during the day, and pitching from the Outfield perspective, you can usually see the batters shadow, well currently it’s only showing the shadow of the bat and not the player.

I’m Having a problem with my MLB10 the show. It seems like there is no option to schedule promotions but they are telling you to schedule promotions. I cannot seem to find how to contact anyone from customer support.

When challenging a player from “play now” I am consistently hanging on the Select Team screen. After a few minutes of being frozen (game does not respond to anything but pressing on the playstation (round) button to access the main menu) I get a message that the connection was lost and am dumped back at the Play Now menu to start this process all over again. Just got MLB 10 yesterday–what a POS.

When trying to “Play Now” online I keep freezing at the Team Select screen. Nothing happens for 3 to 4 minutes then I get a message saying the connection has been lost and I get dumped to the Play Now screen to start this futile process all over again. Just got MLB 10 yesterday…what a POS!

I've been having crazy issues with the commentary. I won't hear them for 3 innings. Then the PA announcer will say the name of a random player that was up to bat earlier in the game, then the commentary will go to normal for about 2 batters. And sometimes the commentary will be interrupted mid-sentence with a very loud snow-like noise. Not to mention my game just froze up on me during the post game loading screen for about the 6th time.

How about the issue where the last 2 games I've played online as soon as the game ends the server goes down therefore none of the stats being recorded nor the win or loss.
trigga58

Mine are colored
mattcolby

Mine are black too, but I think this has something to do with what level you play on. I play on All-Star. Perhaps if you play on a lower level it give you more info, not sure.

I'm having trouble playing the game in full 1080p, it only shows in 720p. My TV is a 1080p with HDMI that supports HDCP technology. This is the only game that does not use 1080, I have no problems with my other games. Does anyone have a resolution for this?

guys i have comcast high speed internet, it's highly efficiant. Why do I always get disconnected when I play online? Is it cause there are so many people playing at the same time or what?

is anybody having a problem with the server not keeping track of the record i have played 10 online games and says i only played 3
ddubs420

The things I dont like

1. When someone quits online no one get win.. So I never geta a desicion
2. the ball always hitting off the pitchers foot… Like everygame really?
3. The amount the servers are down
4. sometimes the running controls wont let a runner stop ata a base
5. The int pitch doesn't always work and sometimes hits the left handed batters
6. some guys can steal everytime without getting caught even if I pitch out
7. Too many droped 3rd strikes
8. The back catcher doesn't go for fouls all the time… so some that could be cought just bounce beside you
9. When throwing from the outfield of the wall sometimes the fielder is tuck before the throw and then that causes a delay which will lead to a qrong base throw

my problem is that i play games online but when i check my gamer card after the game there is no change is there something that im not doing?
dan

Josh

help me Im in league and when I click on schedule it automatically boots me.
Agitated Gamer

why dont they fix the freezing of the game when you hit select midgame to see the game / player status; every f'ing time with me. At least once within four games. You can waste an hour and get to the ninth and this crap happens.
Zach

how do u do online mode? I dont see a section like most games
jamesbaumgartner

need help. I play against the computer all the time. 2 outs, now one on, the computer gets 7 hits and scores 6 runs. what's the problem? my sliders – do they affect the players, or do they just play according to their ratings? 2 outs, the third one almost always gets a hit. Can't throw a pitch high in the zone, always gets hit, lot of home runs.
james Baumgartner

when i bring up schedule, it says play game, manage, schedule a promotion for that daye
G-MONEY420

I KEEP GETTTING BOOTED OFFLINE EVERYTIME I VIEW MY GAMERCARD. I CANT EVEN PLAY IN A LEAGUE CUZ IT WILL BOOT ME OFF THERE TOO….HELP!!!
ebiss

Im not playing online and batting and pitching is not fluid, batting swing is always late and pitching is almost impossible to hit the accuracy.. I own 09 and have never experienced this… Any one else?
brevans

Rich

Issue with franchise the game freezes up.
Giovanni

my game glitches every two seconds
Kingat24

They need to fix the pitchers some more and also when u do a roster update the announcer should already say their names instead of me having to put in the names. Also there need to b a hugh differential between certain players vs certain pitchers
Soxshortstop05

I'm having a glitch on my RTTS player. Whenever I am on 3rd base with the baserunning controls on Classic, my runner will automatically steal home. The pitcher steps off and Im hosed at 3rd trying to get back. It sucks cause then I get benched and cant do anything for the rest of the week. Has this happened to anyone??
Agente00007

Can anyone tell me how to do a single steal when to runners in base? I tried L2+baseicon and It makes both runners to steal.
Romey24_1

about three batters into the first inning all of the commentary goes out, PA as well. Then it will come back in at about the 5th inning. Also at the end of the game it takes forever to load to go to my next screen. Is this a fault with my game or is this happening to others as well? Just wondering how to fix it..
????

does anyone know if an error can be fixed to play rtts? Or is that one player lost?
Slimjim

Ok it is ridiculous that I have to continue to push R1 while a runner is on third in fear of him taking off running just because the opposing pitcher steps off the mound. The third base run glitch is terrible and really aggravating when on a hit streak. If others aren't experiencing this please tell me what doing different.

I've had a ton of glitches on my game…The first day i bought the game, i hit a triple to the wall and i rounded second heading to third and my guy stopped and ran straight to the left field wall where he ran in place until finally i had to switch the controller to the other team and run out there and tag him out…I had another major glitch where i put a pinch hitter in for the pitcher and went back in to put someone up in the bullpen but it said i had to replace the pitcher on the other team before i could continue…i ended up having to turn off the game losing all of my progress in the 7th inning…there are also really bad throwing glitches in the outfield where they are really slow at getting to the ball to try and throw someone out….not to mention the “last 10 game” stat is always backwards….this game is terrible…i think the forgot to finish it
Jazepentz3

I have a question…. Anytime I get a runner on third base, he tries to steal home automatically and Some times he ends up getting stuck in a pickle which I can never win. How can I avoid this? I am keeping my finger well off of the “L2″ button and it does this anyway. I am going to try another controller just in case, but this only happens when the runner is on third so I don't really see this as a controller problem. Any help would be appreciated.
