    will the patch fix the game freezing up when you complete a game and exit it on the PS3?

        Yes, but I think you're better off waiting...at least I am. Only a few weeks.

          I got the Ok to officially say that we are doing a patch. I've wanted to say that for a week, but we had to make sure of a few things first.

          Here's an update on our progress with the patch:
          • We have fixed the Play Creator/Injury Bug.
          • We have added the ability to call plays during the 2 minute drill. You guys better thank Bekins for this. Normally, this would have been a feature that would have taken forever to get in, but the kid killed himself to put it in there to help everyone out.
          • We have added Favre's stats back in the game.
          • We fixed a bug you guys didn't know about that allows me to change team philosophies in the roster update. Woo-Hoo! This lets me get the teams where I think they should be and correct some ratings issues that way.
          • We fixed the contract bug (where scrub players would ask for a ton of money when re-signing).
          • We fixed the Draft Day trading bug (where you could force every team to trade their pick by asking them to trade and then backing out)
          • We fixed the ability to change a QB to WR and change him back to QB again.
          • We fixed the bug where teams would not kick a FG at the end of the half.
          • We are investigating a fix to make fumbles better. Staymates found out that a fatigued player would be getting larger penalties than expected to their attributes, including their carry rating. 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.
          • We are fixing any crashes we can reproduce including the issues found on PS3.
          I don't have a date for when this will be delivered to you (we are working very quickly). Once we are done with it, it typically takes a couple of weeks to get through everybody else before it makes it's way to you.

          As I've said before, I'm sorry for these bugs. As you can see, we are making it right.


          *** Added Wednesday, August 27th ***

          We are also fixing an issue with RFAs that was noticed.
          Will favre's stats be added in an already started career?

            Wanted to ask Josh what, if anything is happening with the announcer issue where some people have been hearing himduring the games and then disappearing.

            Firstly can you confirm that there is ment to be an announcer and if so will the patch fix this?

                I've been playing this game since 3 days after it came out in the CE, and I have yet to hear an announcer at all.

                  You have to turn the crowd volume to 0 to hear the announcer.

                    I've searched the posts in here for a few pages back and have not found anything addressing the Xbox 360 freezing issues. I've not had this to me first hand, thankfully, but it scares the crap out of me to think it could happen at anytime. I've put a ton of time into playing the game and I don't want to see it all get wasted. So, any sort of official word on the subject would be welcome.
                    Oh, we will. This is America! And in America, if something sucks, you're supposed to be able to get your money back! Come on, Kenny!

                      The official word is:

                      We are fixing every freeze or crash that we find, regardless of platform.

                          I have been busy at work lately and out of the loop... Anyone know when the ETA for the patch is? Has it gone to certification yet or still in testing?

                              On 9/02 it looks like it is about set to go in for testing...which means the two weeks probably started ticking sometime this week?

                              Josh? Any new update?
