    Did they patche NFL 2K5? Was it for XBox only, or did they patch the PS2 version as well?

    If they did patch the PS2 version, how do I get it? Is it as simple as going online with my PS2? Is the patch automaticly downloaded or will I have to look for it?

    Thanks!

I could understand your frustration if it had to with gameplay. But timeouts? Its good that people complain, but whiny gamers have reached a new plateau on this one. Hopefully they will fix it. If not Im still enjoying the game. Ill be playing my franchise online and play against other people a lot so I could care less. Hopefully you guys can find a solution too. But this boycotting VC stuff I find funny over timeouts????????
        I'm sure you've been responded to, but just in case...

        Some things bother some more than others. It's great that you can still enjoy the game, and it seems like most others feel the same. But when you think about the effect on EVERY SINGLE close game against the computer, the problem is pretty big. The funnest part of the game for most of us(end of close game) is ruined. The CPU can't stop momentum during a run, can't sub fatigued players until a penalty stops a play, can't set up a good shot at the end of games, can't advance the ball to half court at the end of games, ect. This is huge!

        Unless people complain as much as they are, VC will not address the problem. There are many gamers that primarily play 2 on 2 games, either online or in person. They will obviously not be as upset as those of us that rely primarily on franchise for fun. The few of us that are effected should complain as much as possible on as many forums as possible.

        I made the jump from EA to VC a few years ago, and there has been a major issue with each football & basketball title I've purchased. Professional developers don't miss these types of problems, they ignore them. Personally, I think it's part of their strategy - to put out a great game, but leave a major flaw or 2 in it to keep us hoping for the next year. At some point I have to take my measly dollars elsewhere. Unless they fix this(I'm on PS2, so I doubt it), this may be the last VC title I purchase.

        I've had game play issues with EA games, but never glitches of this magnitude. At least I knew what to expect from EA.

                Madden 2004. Problem with importing draft classes for the college game. Sent everyone who wanted one a free, fixed disc if they sent in a proof of purchase. This was pre-Xbox Live though, so they could probably just patch it now.

                    There is one major difference. Importing the college draft class was an advertised feature. The CPU calling timeouts at the end of the game is not. VC has no liability in this situation = no new disc.

                        Any news on a patch?

                        Has the developer come out stating that there is a timeout bug in this game?

                            The timeout bug is a STANDARD aspect of any b-ball sim. It doesn't have to be advertised for consumers to EXPECT that aspect to work right. Visual Concepts is disrespecting their consumers by being silent on this issue and not doing anything about it, as far as I'm concerned.

                                agreed. The other team not calling timeouts does some wacky things to their substitution methods. And it makes me use a timeout when ever I want to sub a guy out, or commit an intentional foul. Thats just plain dumb.
