Dirty uniforms: check
Scuffed helmets: check
weather: clear

This pic made me stop browsing and just look at it. I wish that I could go back in time, like 15 years ago, when I was playing Madden '95 or '96 and be like "Hey, 11-year-old me, look at what football videogames are going to look like when you're 26" and show that image.

Loving the patch....I just had the best game ever instant classic with a score of 2330........I went into 4 ot before I lost to Mizz 45-43

Running was solid on both ends....passing was decent cause I use sliders for that so I may drop and catch some...

Great Job EA Great Job

Few things I noticed: XBOX 360 (after patch)

- QBs will run when the pocket breaks down. This was great to see!

Uniforms do degrade on all surfaces in all types of weather, including domes (this was tested at the Kibbie Dome)

- Runners still protect the ball in the open field but it is just not as frequent

A few questions for some of you that have played online:

Do the uniforms degrade online?
Are the cheese plays such as the counter, stretch, runs to the outside still difficult to defend against? This is my one true beef with this game.

wait....when you say they degrade on all surfaces are you saying theres dirt in domes, OR just uniforms tearing/ripping?

Will the patch changes take effect in a dynasty that was started pre patch?

Great.

I love the fact that the "Ballcarrier Glitch and Kickers Glitch" were fixed. These two were becoming game killers for me.

It's too bad the "Penalties" weren't tuned higher.

Good work.

Flat coverage works really well, i was playin some cheeseball who would run the hurryup. Anyways i figured out basically he ran 3 plays. If he would get a completion or positive yards he would go in flat. So i put out a 3-2-6 with a guy in the flat on both sides, he did his usual hurry up i put that d in. Pick 6

Next possession he tried it again, same D, pick 6

Defense in flats was workin good

Strange. Played a play now game and the unis and helmets were filthy. Playin my OD game and everything is clean as a whistle. BTW, its raining in my game and not a scuff or anything.

They didn't mention it, but I think they actually were. I just played my first game and had like 5 facemask penalties called. That's the only one that really stuck out, though, as there were just 15 in the game overall (still a little high, but it was Syracuse and Louisville).

I will say this, though. Season showdown working again has reminded me just how much it drove me crazy last year. In the aforementioned game, I was up 42-0 in the first quarter (Playmakers sliders need to be adjusted badly), 4 TDs off of two fumble returns and two INT returns, and as soon as I threw a pass in the second quarter I got a -50 for sportsmanship. I mean, come on, man.

I had to sim the rest of the game, because what fun is it if I have to run 3 times then punt every single possession?

Re: NCAA Patch #2 Official

People keep bringing up the low elusiveness for WR recruits, but Russ clearly stated it was done intentionally. You can disagree with it from a design standpoint, but it's not something that needs "fixing" like the PA glitch.

Agility should be boosted up but elusiveness is just fine.....

You see i don't think many people really know how elusiveness works and what it does in this game.

I finally convinced guys in the roster section that it helps big time for mobile QB's but you don't want every player in the game having a high elusiveness because it should be for special game changing players like a Peter Warrick or Johnny Rogers type.

The reason why some WR's break so many tackle is because they have a high elusiveness rating along with an OVERATED break tackle rating at default.

If you look at Madden 10 and 11 you'll see only big time WR's have a high elusiveness rating. So it is done by design and i agree with EA for utilizing the same low ratings system for that rating in NCAA 11 like they have in Madden

Why should the college players be rated higher than NFL players in that category?

I wish some guys would actually take the time out to study the ratings and what they are meant for before jumping to conclusions....they are doing the same exact thing in Madden so it's not just NCAA have that rating toned down big time.

Before I left home I played Alabama @ Auburn in the rain and did not see anything. I hope that was just a coincidence.

how is that a "coincidence"?

[7stringking]

Are they gonna fix it so the CPU snaps the ball in a more UNEVEN way , like they do in real life???i haven't played enough games yet, but it was seeming like the cpu calls plays with the exact same time useage, and also snaps the ball in about the same amount of time when going to line...this could be an option for hardcore gamers who want more realism, and they could leave it the way it is as the stock setting for more casual gamers

Yes it will apply to previously started dynasties

Can someone confirm or not if the uniforms on PS3 get dirty like this? If so can I get a pic? I played one game before I left home and did not see any dirt.

This pic is PS3
