MLB 12 The Show Game Update 1.21 Arrives, Details Included - Post Your Impressions

[LowerWolf]

Played two games post-patch with no problems.

One thing, and maybe it's my imagination, but I swear I'm hearing more audio comments. Fans were chanting "sweep, sweep, sweep" at one point, which I had never heard before. And I had a few sweeps before now.

Am I safe to assume that there are definitely no new freezing issues this time around? I think I'm going to take the plunge and download the patch tonight if there are definitely no issues.

I'm getting some post update freezing in Road to The Show that I never experienced before. The game froze twice with the same Road To The Show save, right after I simmed through spring training of that next season.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Downloaded the patch this afternoon, loaded up my post 1.16 OSFM v. 4(one of them) Braves franchise, in the 2012 World Series.

Played one game, went well as far as gameplay, no freezing, etc. Game I played today seemed pretty much like the game I played last night, can't tell much from one game I guess. Game was 2-1, a little low scoring, but it's the playoffs, it happens. Since I'm in the playoffs, definitely can say that there are still no playoff box scores available from the schedule screen, at least so far (I was already in the playoffs when I downloaded the patch, so that could be an issue); but then they didn't say they were fixing that yet, so I reckon they'll get to it when they get to it.

One strange thing happened, and I'm going to put it in the bug thread, but thought I'd mention it briefly here just in case it is directly patch related: foul pop into 3rd base stands, should have been 15-20 rows back easily, magically curves back to the third baseman, who is running like crazy up against the wall. I have a video of it--for the bug thread, but also because it was crazy and pretty cool.

Edit: Well, so then I found somebody (http://www.operationsports.com/forum...post2043600415) with the same foul ball issue almost a month ago, it's not patch related, so just ignore that last bit, I'll go post it in the bug thread. My impression so far is, then, patch seems fine. Carry on.

I never go in the bugs threads either....for any games.

But this one? How can't you notice it. It is flat out obvious.

I played 2011 last night again (find myself playing it more again) and the ticker is clean then I played a game on 12 and it's there smakcing me in the face LOL.....I can live with it....but man that was one I don't understand in how it made it through to retail. So obvious. Wish they could fix that. It is annoying knowing it worked on last years game.

Oh well. It's the only thing I noticed on this game that has stuck out like a bug to me.

I don't think it was out of the box.
It was "introduced" by the first patch I believe.

Yep, there was some other far more minor glitch where stuff that was SUPPOSED to be decimals (like ERA) showed up as just a single whole number... they tried to fix it in the second patch (technically the first patch was on release day), and then this happened.

Or something like that. It definitely wasn't in the retail copy though.
