Can we keep this thread on topic and leave the flamming for the 200 other threads that are here for that?

I for one would like to hear what ppl are noticing with the patch.

Another thing I noticed right now besides the players no longer flopping all over one another.

Don't know if it was like this before (never noticed) but players (when looking at their career stats) now have free agent next to their new team instead of the team they're actually on.

Example is that I use the Bolts in my offline CCM and we got rid of Ryan Mathews and picked up Ryan Grant. For Grant it lists Packers every year till he got to the Bolts and now it says Free Agent along side of the stats he's accumulated as a Bolt.

Same thing with Mathews, says Bolts for the years he was on my team. Now with the Broncos it says Free Agent.

That isn't a "fix" in my book, kind of an oddity but none the less something I noticed.

That is all I have so far, I'll keep looking for little things. Gonna play a few more games.

For anyone that has gotten the patch already...

Please, please tell me that they FINALLY added assisted tackles and half sacks? Its something so basic and the fact that the column for it exists bugs me to no end...

I am at work so I can't check this out for myself but... Did EA fix the injury bug where you're players would get injured during the game. After the game you would go to change a setting or slider and all the injuries in the entire league would be cleared! Thanks for any help...

Re: Madden NFL 13 Title Update #2 Available Now

I'm a software developer for a living (albeit in server-side business middleware, which I'd argue is way simpler than platform game development).

This game has only been released to the public for two weeks. Depending on the bug sometimes it takes that long just to reproducible bug, triage it, and get a patch for it and get it committed to the main code line. This isn't even counting manual QA and several other things that go into the release process. This stuff isn't easy.

Chances are the stability fixes being mentioned are things that were causing actual loss of gameplay, crashing, major loss of functionality, but were only rarely occurring such that the risk of releasing the game with those bugs in there was small and they've probably been able to successfully reproduce and patch those critical issues.

Developers aren't gods and can't just simply "write more code" to fix something. Give them a break in expecting something so soon.

Of course, with this said, there are lots of warts (and CCM gameplay!) that really should be able to get patched in time for that bigger patch that people keep alluding to in 1-2 months. Realistically hold off on being disappointing until then. The fact there actually seems to be a somewhat predictable patch cycle shows that EA Sports actually does care here - I've worked in software shops that didn't care before and never bumped priority on things that caused loss of functionality for a minority of users and didn't plan a patch cycle accordingly.

THANK U!!!

I just checked the Madden twitter Feed and they just posted that ccm rosters will not be posted until Friday the 14th.

So the week 1 rosters, come out for week 2? Great. With a lack of editing and custom rosters, the one thing EA needed to do was keep up with roster updates. They're failing miserably at that right now IMO. Sure we have the week 1 roster for play now, and that's fine because it came fairly quickly, but this update for CCM is really slow.

Glad to hear however, that the patch has apparently fixed the offline CCM scheme issues though. That's pretty important IMO.
