Point Blank. Will There Be a Gameplay Patch?

[acarrero]

Maybe there's a learning curve you guys aren't willing to go through. Or maybe you're just not very good. How come I see so many complaints about dump-off passes when college football is full of little inside dump off passes? How come I hear of people not being able to stop the CPU? I've yet to lose to the CPU in AA (only played 5 games though). Online I'm something like 4-11 but that's been against mostly top 25 teams using only Rice. The int's are plenty, but they are going down - to me it feels more realistic. The only areas where I seee the need for improvement right away are on returns - too much running room for returners, especially on punts. I just hope they release a patch asap to fix any identified issues, bugs, or freezes, online dynasty problems, and the roster bug. Fine tuning gameplay would be a bonus.

I can't express in words how disappointed I am that there won't be a 2K9. I can only imagine the improvements they would have made with another year on "Current Gen". How realistic is it that CH2K might make a return? Any chance?

I'm going to make the transition to NBA this year, but I've always been a college guy and CH was the best basketball game I've ever played.

We fixed 2 recruiting exploits
Fixed a rare online desynch
Added half time highlights
Changed custom sounds so you can hear your opponent's while on the road
Fixed the exploit that custom sounds will tip you off when your opponent is going to fake punt/kick on 4th down
That's all I can remember off the top of my head. There are some others but I don't have the patch list in front of me as I'm posting at home right now.


Not anywhere, on any board, have I heard ONE SINGLE complaint about any this. Makes perfect sense that they would "fix" that stuff. As I said before, EA just doesn't get it.

Saddest day of my videogame life, even more than when MVP Baseball or NFL 2K went under.

I think 99% of us want to know.

1) D-line getting looked at?
2) CPU QB going deep getting looked at?
3) Tighter Pass coverage getting looked at?
4) Sliders getting fixed? (has been stated)
5) Robo Qb getting fixed?

You need to start working on your game and learn how to use defensive adjustments and hot routes. I have been able to completely shut down the cpu some games (holding under 100 yards on offense), and 3 points max. Make adjustments when you move up to the line, and don't be afraid to blitz. Sorry defense isn't automatically played for you this season like the last 3 years of next gen football.

I love college hoops, but how do you complain about NCAA 09, when CH has just as many ai issues (does 80% 1st half cpu field goal % ring a bell?), how about the fact that certain traps and presses cause the cpu ai to automatically throw the ball away.

All sports games will have ai issues, just learn how to adapt to them. NCAA 09 D takes some time to adapt to, but once you learn it you can dominate. Probably the most fun on D I've had in an NCAA game ever.

Well way I look at it was $60 NCAA $90 madden CE (sorry I want HC bad) thats $150
If I return NCAA for Madden I'm getting Madden for $50 so thats $110. It's not perfect, in a perfect world I could return a console game for refund or credit.

As far as Madden goes, I've heard from several people I trust that it is good. I'm not talking about "community leaders" either, I wouldn't listen to them.

They've mentioned they are looking at some of these things: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...sponse-ea.html
