And yet again, here's Adam and EA on defense........

Cmon guys, we bitched about the roster issue, they fixed it within days. They are now QC'ing it and testing things for patch two. He wont give us a time frame because it will lead to the end of the world if things get changed up. He's said it a million times. If he says one day, and he's wrong or it gets delayed, he looks like a liar, i dont blame him for not saying much.

Adam, thanks, and please let us know when its left central control or whatever its called to go to MS and Sony

Ahh....a voice of reason! Thank you!

I'm just curious, what happens after it's out of central?

The process repeats at Microsoft and Sony.....

Oh joy, so probably if we're lucky at the end of the week or the beginning of next.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Patch Announcement

so when exactly is the patch released, so what exactly will be fixed in the patch, and so how many patches will we need for this game to reach its full potential?

OMT said that after it is completed it goes to quality control within EA....when they think it is solid they send it to Sony and Microsoft. After they receive it, they test it.....but if other games have patches there before and they are viewed as more critical, then THEY will get priority. I assume it will be out by the end of this week.

The first patch will only address the roster malfunction and no actual gamplay issues. It will allow multiple team edits without causing your game to freeze. I have no clue if this will, as a side effect, help any other aspects of the game. Such as online dynasty.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Patch Announcement

another fix will be the ability to edit rosters without re-setting the depth charts.

I'm wondering the same thing. I want to start a dynasty, but I'm thinking I should wait for the patch(es) to come out before I start. Any word on a possible gameplay patch?

**baebllr408** · 07-21-2008, 01:42 PM

Why not add a patch to ADD BOWL LOGO PATCHES TO THE DAMN JERSEYS!! I always thought that was such a cool part of the dynasty mode. Also, this game developers never seem to entertain the possibility that there may be one console per household and since me and my bros play dynasty together (there are 3 of us) and the time it takes to recruit/ scout players is rediculous and really turns you off to spending that time. Can we at least have an option to revert back to the old recruiting system (i.e. NCAA playstation 2)? can someone let me know if either of those are possible with a patch and why the hell the first at least doesnt get fixed?

Both of your 'issues' aren't going to be addressed with a Patch.

Nor should they be at this point....i mean damn....are we seriously talking Bowl jersey patches at this stage in the game? Seriously?

Look I know it has been asked a lot, but i have not seen a clear answer yet, maybe no one kows for sure. Do cpu defensive sliders work at all or not. I would like some clarification so, I don't waste anymore time testing them when editing sliders. I have seen people on here who think they work and people who don't think they work. I am starting to enjoy the game a little on heisman. I think with a little tuning this game could be killer.

It's been said they don't work at all.. and judging by my own experience - cpu sliders don't work at all. If any of them do, they still need fixing, because I'm not noticing any difference at all in game.

I would consider this a top issue now that the roster bug is taken care of. I just hope they'll consider it important enough to fix, because to me, it's now the only thing holding the game back. I can handle the other flaws. I just need better game play from the CPU. I also have to find out if this issue is going to be in Madden, because I'm not buying anymore games that have this slider bug. The game is useless to me, if I can't have working CPU sliders.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Patch Announcement

What I would like to see addressed at this point is the DLine pressure, DB AI (especially on comeback routes/button hooks) CPU QB Accuracy (but with better DB AI, perhaps this wouldn't be a problem), Punt/kickoff issues and defensive angles...

Yesterday (After buying a new 360 due to my now 2nd RROD and hearing a 3 week turn around time argh!) I took PSU into the swamp to face Florida and won 44-14...Tebow was picked off 3 times, once very early which may have tanked him a bit, but he's a Heisman winner so I think he should have bounced back. I did sack him 3 times, once off a 4 man rush with an interior lineman. They also tested me deep with Percy Harvin a few times.

Later on I went into Georgia with PSU and at the half was up 28-7. They seemed to run on me better than Florida did, but in both games I thought my Run D was fine. PSU does have a good front 7. I did lose to Miami and USC at home though...

Overall I think if a few things get tweeked the right way, we'll have a fantastic game on our hands...I'd like to get more pressure from the DEs, both CPU and Human. I want to feel some pressure on offense. This is on AA default BTW.

Oh, and I was really REALLY close to dropping 500 for a PS3 after my 360 tanked again, but I didn't want to rebuy NCAA and I figured I could sell a 360 on eBay to recoup most of the cost. Maybe next time Sony, Maybe next time.

Re: NCAA Football 09 Patch Announcement

They absolutely need to fix the sliders and kick off coverage. Like I said before, I think that would solve a lot of our issues.

I wonder how they would do that? How could you fix kick off coverage? Dumb down the return team's ratings?

Kickoff coverage is annoying, but I super sim those, so it's not as bad as the slider issue, IMO. I just hope IF they can't fit in both, they choose the slider bug over something like the kickoff coverage, because it can at least be toned down. I even bought the game knowing about the roster bug, but if I had known the sliders weren't working, I wouldn't have even thought about buying.

Complete game killer for me. I can't get any decent game play.

Hold your horses there pal, I am not saying that bowl patches should take priority over some of the other prevalent issues (rosters, etc) but i am just wondering why they take out those things and leave them out? I was also just curious whether that would be difficult to fix with a patch and whether it would b e time consuming. I have no programming experience and was hoping someone on here would be able to better educate me on that issue. I honestly think that some of those "more important" issues will probably get solved so I am wondering if throwing that in there would be tedious.
