I've been holding off getting this game until the 2nd patch, when is it?

There are a lot of concerns that I wanted to see if they would be answered. THis game looks a lot better than Madden, and I really want a football game, but refuse to buy because of all the bugs and things that were left out. But if the Bugs are fixed, the game would obviously be improved. Any word on patch 2 and what will be fixed?

That is the million dollar question. Nothing has been said about another patch or any upcoming tuner sets. A little dissapointing if you ask me, especially with no tuner information. The game has been out for almost two weeks and by the time they announce it, it will still be at least a week before it comes out. So at this point if the process holds true, we are at least probably 2 weeks away because they will not announce anything on a Friday.

Dissapointing to pay 60 bucks for a game and have to wait a month for it to be fixed. Did last gen games have these glaring issues, I don't think they did, no patches either.

What glaring issues do we have exactly?

Dynasty mode has about 10 major issues which render the mode unplayable for any extended period. Some actually prevent a user from continuing in a saved dynasty.

There are also a few major gameplay bugs such as the playaction bug.

I'd say those issues fall into the NEED category.

most games have issues, which is why most games have patches(PC, PS3, 360, whatever system). been that way forever it seems. luckily with these new consoles, you can get patches for them.

Have we ever had more than 2 patches on an NCAA next-gen? I faintly recall a developer giving a reason why they were limited to two patches.

If that's the case, then hopefully they wait and spend the time to fix as much as possible. That release date patch scared me for just this reason.... wasted ammo.

If I'm not mistaken, this very game had 3 patches last year. I remember because people were so blown away that EA did it on it's own dime.

The third was to fix progression... I know, shocking as it may sound, progression needed to be fixed.
