Do you have an official Patch release date/time for the Ps3 version?

Yay! Had time on my lunch break to get to my apartment and download the patch, ran through the contracts real quick and the scrub players asking for huge contracts is gone, and my star players that I need to resign even asked for less money.

So I finished a preseason game, it's preseason but still I'm encouraged as hell. 49ers win 31-21 over the Raiders.

49er QBs - 9-16 165yards 1td
Robinson/Foster - 22 carries 137yards 2tds! Never had a running game like that pre-patch. This is with Martz' playbook as well.

McFadden had 9 carries for 32 yards and Fargas had 10 carries 59yards and a touchdown.

Also Nedney with a 54 yarder.

I'll be playing another game real quick. Stay tuned!

Played my first post patch half and I can already see the improvements.

My running is still not that good, but the sample size is so small I am not concerned...

especially becasue the other team is running the ball and I have yet to see the previously all too familiar play where 3 guys hit the RB 5 yards behind the LOS.

I haven't been in FG range yet (my one good drive resulted in a TD) but my opp has made a 39 and 43 FG. I have never been so happy to see the other team score.

Also both teams are having a much more difucult time passing. I don't think I am going to throw for 4,000 yards this season, and that is a good thing.

Also - I absolutely LOVE the new toggle to turn off CPU play download. I can see where some people might like to have the other teams download plays, I was always in the camp of enjoying the idea of teams having a specific philosophy. So when you played the Colts and watched them run stretch 20 times, it felt like playing the Colts. Allowing them to d/l plays took away from that a bit and now being able to turn that off is great. Developers can almost never go wrong with allowing people toggle and customize the game to the way they want to play. Great, great addition.

Overall I am very happy with my first post patch half, even though I am losing 13-7.

Great job Josh and co. thank you!

A big thank you to everyone at EA involved in the making of this great game and to those that went the extra mile on this patch. Unfortunately can't check it out till tonight as I got the RROD last night.

The computer is definitely running the ball better. I called the wrong defense on a pitch and I had only one guy on the edge to stop Ryan Grant and he stiff armed him and went 50 yards in for the score.
