Cubs home game all start at night!!

frat77 · 03-04-2009, 10:56 AM

I was in franchise and I noticed all of the cubs home games start at 7pm except on Sundays. As a Cubs fan this is a HUGE problem. Anyone else notice this??

Yes I noticed this. Especially when the announcers talk about how great it is to have so many day games at Wrigley yet so many night games

Guys, PM Russell on this. If this is indeed the case, then it's a huge problem.

Did you guys try season mode?

well yes this is a big problem.

The reason they cant have more than 26-30 night home games at wrigley is because of the city rules in chicago surrounding the ballpark. the surrounding communities do not want to deal with the 40000 fans on the streets at night all the time.

That being said, in the video game, we dont have to worry about the city of chicagos rules lol, which means unlimited night games!

It's funny cuz I remember somewhere here that someone said the dodgers played a lot of day games in their season when they really play a lot of night games. So I checked out a franchise with the Giants and the Giants had a lot of day games when they play more night games in reality. Both minor league teams for them seemed to have the timing right but not the MLB team. Kinda weird that they had the opposite happen for the Cubs in your case.

This is a big problem, I'm scared to see what the Cardinals are like (I'm considering using them for a franchise).

This was a problem in MLB 2K5. West coast teams would always play games during the day. There were like three exceptions out of the year, which didn't make much sense.

The Cubs is the most alarming of them all, though. Aren't they the ones that always seemingly play Friday day games when everyone else is playing at night?

This is a real downer. I just bought a PS3 last month so I could play this game. And I use the cubs as my team. I don't think a patch can fix this.
