Re: NCAA Football 13 October Title Update Available Now For PS3 and 360

So, Patriot making sure I understand this correctly...I can use the Madden editor to edit NCAA rosters? I would have to load an NCAA roster into a Madden file in order to do it? Just trying to figure out how this would work with a roster that's not a Madden roster. I've been reading a few of the pages and haven't come across anything regarding NCAA yet. But, the fact that this tool allows you to global edit man is awesome. I wish there was a way you could add attributes from Madden to NCAA such as (Play Action, Short, Medium, Long Ball Accuracy). But that's asking for way too much lol.

I have no idea. I found out the same time you did or I would have passed this on to you a long time ago. Seems like everyone that knows anything has gone to bed lol

LOL yeah I know...it seems almost like the type of thing where you'll have to just have to jump out there on your own and do it through trial and error....no manual no nothing lol. Maybe someone who has messed around with it with the NCAA roster can chime in at some point.

The really sad part is that we may not have an NCAA 14 next year. We probably will; but with EA giving up the license they very well could shut it down.

Just to be clear, EA didn't "give up the license." All they did was agree that they would no longer own an exclusive license for NCAA--meaning that EA can still be licensed to make NCAA games, they just have to allow NCAA to also be allowed to negotiate and sell licenses to other developers who might be interested in making an NCAA game.

The practical effect here might just be that EA pays less for the license (since it's no longer exclusive), but no other developers are interested in making a game so EA remains our only college football option.

It would be nice if Sony and the makers of the Show made a college game. 2k tried before and it was rock bottom.

Just did a system update on the PS3.

"Message of the Day"

"The Nike Pro Combat demo/pre-order uniforms have been unlocked for everyone Army, Boise State, Georgia, LSU, Michigan State, Navy, Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Oregon, Stanford are now selectable at Team Select under Uniform Options for these schools."

Hopefully this is good info for the people complaining about the uniform store.

So what's the comprehensive list of what the patch really did.

I'm not complaining, but i started my Husker dynasty over and got housed last night. 31-14 to southern miss.

tighter coverage
stiffer run defense
more aggressive play by cpu

i threw like 7 picks.

this feels a lot more like the game i was expecting in july.

Everything you listed I agree 100% with. More picks are being thrown on both sides. I had to lower the INT slider. Run Def is stiffer because that slider is actually working again (last patch broke it). I was very happy when I discovered that because I can play around with the Run Block slider and get a decent pancake balance for both teams. Finally it is true the CPU is more aggressive. The CPU QB is a bit smarter now and I notice they are more accurate and are using touch passes in certain situations. Looks really pretty. I see all of this on AA with my personal slider set.

I'm hoping that the CPU offensive aggressiveness translated over to varsity level because if so I can use FistofRage's slider set which minimizes the DB glitch. I'll be a really happy camper then.

So basically yeah everything you said and to add the CPU QBs are playing lights out.

Strange. I have my sliders set up very difficult on Heisman and I thought that passing on O was easier, running the ball is easier, and my defense has been playing better. I have only thrown one INT post patch and my comp pct has gone up also.

It has played well, though post patch other than a couple of freezes.

I'll say it one last time, this game is playing golden right now IMO. My last four scores in my Gator dynasty (year two):

UGA: 27-14 W
USC: 21-31 L
TAMU: 38-21 W
Vandy: 37-31 OT W

Yes I agree the game is better. The CPU is smarter. The Rush D slider works. My only complaint after 6 played games post patch is the QB accuracy on both sides is even more pronounced than before. I'm not seeing any deep overthrows as opposed to seeing them pre-patch. I can fix this by editing the accuracy rating of both QBs so it's nothing to complain about. Just wish the QBA slider worked lol

Oy, I know! One thing EA needs to work on is just having the QB (on both sides) missing throws. Way too often, passes are incomplete in NCAA because of swats and missed interceptions. More often than not with incompletions, the ball never touches anyone before it hits the ground. We need overthrows, underthrows, etc. I also think we need a few different kind of QBs.

Scrambling Gunslinger: Likes to run, but also chucks the ball all over the field. More prone to throw interceptions and be loose with the ball, but also more likely to make big plays.

Field Manager: Good awareness and arm accuracy. Hopefully, we'll have a short range accuracy rating next year. Very good at taking care of the ball, but less likely to make the big play.

Scrambling QB: Almost always looks to run first. Good in a spread style offense.

Gunslinger: Always looks to pass first. Makes big throws, but is also more likely to throw the ball in bad spots.

Balanced: Speaks for itself.

came here for the first time in ages to see if they unsuckified NCAA 13, can you still not sim CPU games?

Re: NCAA Football 13 October Title Update Available Now For PS3 and 360

All of these updates are great! Oh, wait....the game still freezes 80% of the time I play it or try to get past the loading screen after investing 2 hours in a game. That update literally did nothing to fix any kind of stability issues, and as much as you guys want the gameplay fixed....how about a game that doesn't lock up most of the time? Can we agree to start there?

Never again, EA.....NEVER again will I buy your ____ product.

You sure that's not your system? I've never had the game freeze on me, I've had the game since launch.

Of the 8 games I rotate and play on occasion along with all of the DVD's my kids want to watch, this is the only one I have any trouble with. So I've assumed it's the game so far.
