      Will the patch work with an in progress career that was started before the patch? I'm not sure, I might want to start over anyways..but it would be nice to know if the option will be there to continue a career that has already had a lot of time put into it.

We are greatly reducing this so that fumbles should happen less. This is going to need some more testing since a lot of different factors influence fumble chances.
        • We are also investigating a fix for CPU teams subbing out fatigued players quicker in-game so that backups get some carries. Our thresholds for subbing a guy out were too low, so we are raising those. This also needs mucho testing.
        Josh....isn't there some happy synchronicity with the 'subbing' fix helping out the 'fumble' fix, since the fumble thing may be related to overtired players? God, I'll be SO happy when that's ironed out. I'm nervous to run the ball at times because of it lol.

        Thanks again for the patch update and all your (you and the HC team) hard work on this! Like I said, you get this patch locked down, this game will be elevated to legendary status.
        Good catch. Yes, there should be.

        Staymates and I just played the Chargers vs. the Panthers without the subbing in fix.

        Tomlinson had 33 carries and ZERO fumbles.

        DeAngelo Williams had 24 carries and he fumbled once. He has a 67 carry rating.

        We're going to test this much more over the next few days, but after one game, I feel much better.

                  Just wanted to echo everyone else here and say Thank YOU to everyone who is working on this game. The patch will be icing on the cake for me, I'm so glad that you guys are going to support this game like this. It makes me hopeful that EA will see the value in this franchise and allow you guys to keep doing your thing.

                          Thank you guys.

                          The fumbles, the subs, and everything else you mention will make this game complete.

                          I tip my hat off to you.

                            really excited about the patch but please please PLEASE release one now with the stuff that you said you already fixed. i cant even play the game because it freezes sooooo much. saving doesnt help when i spend an hour+ playing a game and it freezes when i try to exit game after the game is over. go ahead and released what you have fixed!

                              I love this game but Good GOD is there anyway to make a running back run downhill on third and 1?

                              I don't even run on that situation anymore because it's basically impossible to pick up a first.

                                Great news guys and appreciate the hard work. I hate to ask, but any planned fixes for the robo QB or possibly change the sliders so they have a greater impact so we can adjust it to our own liking?
