Madden NFL 10 Blog: 2nd Title Update Preliminary Details

[Chiefsfan881129]

According to the mod natureboy2323 at the ea fourms he said that as far as he knows the patch has been submitted that they are waiting for approval from sony and microsoft and if ian ls right about us getting the patch ln the 1st half of november then my guess is we will get it this week coming up based on ian timeline if it does not come this week then it was not submitted there for i doubt we get it before thanksgiving so this week should tell us all we need to know i hope this is the week thanks

If it doesn't come out before thanksgiving, I think its pretty safe to say it flunked MS's or Sony's cert process, or both's. I think that may have happened already anyway. I think they had finished it around the time of the blog (10/16) but probably had to go back to the drawing board with it.

Don't forget that Madden Arcade will be released in the week of thanksgiving. It doesn't make sense for EA to release the patch now.

Maybe it will be delayed till the 2nd DLC will be released? Like patch #1 was delayed so that it was released on the same day as DLC #1?

Excellent point,..they won't release a patch during the same time with Madden Arcade. So we probably won't get that 2nd patch until January 2010.

That sucks!!!! It really sucks!!

Ahh! I know there's a big market for arcade-type games, but as a sim freak, it bugs me to no end that EA spent time making this game when those resources could have been put towards fixing Madden's problems. Oh, well.

The Madden developer team spent no time what so ever on this game. Completely separate team made the game. Ian said that from his twitter a while ago.

Have you never even considered the possibility that the "completely separate team" could've been added to the Madden team, instead of being assigned to work on the garbage Arcade project?
