Are the pursuit angles any better? Do you still get escorted to the end zone?

No and yes.

The sliders work and kick coverage is better but I didn't notice much difference in the core gameplay last night. The sliders will certainly help but if you play with the same slider set I don't think you will notice a huge change. I didn't but that's fine since I actually like the game.

Re: Patch #2 Now Live on PS3

Well, I'm having a big issue since downloading the patch.

Ok...gotta game with one of my dynasty guys. Penn State vs. Michigan. I'm Michigan getting an invite from him. When we get to the helmet screen, my playbook has said Notre Dame, Ohio State, or Michigan State, even though the Michigan helmet is showing. Then, if I scroll through the jeresys...they are the choices of those teams, not Michigans. If we click to say we are ready, I get booted with the message "session no longer available"? Anyone got ideas?

Re: Patch #2 Now Live on PS3

Just want to make sure I did this correctly. When I have the Playstation 3 hooked up to a computer and I sign on to the Playstation network, once the NCAA 09 disc is in I am asked if I want to download an update - Is that the patch?

Thanks.

Re: NCAA 09 Patch #2 Available --- Impressions Here

I like the game a lot more pre 2nd patch... I can only hope that there is a 3rd flawless patch that comes out to address these issues...

Don't hold your breath waiting for a third patch. Just be happy that did a second one.

And one more thing. You're absolutely delusional if you think this game was better before the second patch. Really, you must be on crack to make a statement like that, if you truly believe it.

Nobody said the game was perfect, but it is far superior after patch #2. How could it not be, after they fixed CPU sliders and increased difficulty of the kick/punt returns?

If you don't like the second patch, empty your chache, or whatever it is you need to do, and don't download it again. Problem solved. Have a ball.

Re: Patch #2 Now Live on PS3

I had the weird online glitch occur in a game last night where I didn't lose a connection but for some reason it kicked us both out.....also they still haven't fixed the stat glitch (if you drive 30 yards and kick a 30 yard FG it shows that the drive was 60 yards).....but overall the games are much more realistic.

Re: Patch #2 Now Live on PS3

When I seen that the patch was avaliable I deleted the first patch and downloaded the second patch. I assume that the first patch is still there. If I am wrong, will there be a difference in the game?

Re: Patch #2 Now Live on PS3

For those of you wondering:

The pass rush in this patch is definitely improved. I've gotten through the line much more now, the D-linemen seem to have a little more speed and ability to fight through blocks. After several games post patch, I myself have gotten at least 4-5 user sacks just from a straight bull rush.

Also, I had the CPU(Alabama) throw TWO deep TD's against me. One was 34 yds, and the other was 30yds. I'm talking about the ball traveled the the whole way in the air, and the receiver only had to take a step or two to get into the end zone. That absolutely NEVER happened, not once, pre-patch.

Robo QB is still there in most games, but it doesnt feel as cheap b/c my players are usually right around the play now, as opposed to being WAY out of position like before. I also feel like I have a little more control on defense now as opposed it feeling so herky-jerky pre-patch.

This feels about 75% like a new game. It really does play a lot like NCAA in the past, which the feeling the majority of us wanted.

I'm now satisfied with my purchase. Get those bowl endzones, and artwork back in there next year and were back in business again.
