That's a lot more than two words, rudy.

That's one word lol. Maybe you meant sliders AND Heisman difficulty level.

I play on Heisman and sliders aren't the answer. Last gen defensive AI the defenders in zone tend to drift towards receivers. In next gen the defenders are stuck in their zones and unless the receiver is right next to them they don't even know there is a receiver in the area.

Could a defective roster cause my game to crash after the game is over, during the loading screens? Ever since I installed patch 2 my game freezes frequently, always during the loading screens after the game. Never in-game.

I havent really touched the game much since release, but after the patch i decided to give it another go. It feels alot more complete and while there are still some ******** issues, it plays alot better. I actually found myself FINALLY starting an FSU dynasty.

That's because they can jump 5 yards in any direction from a standstill so they don't have to know where a WR is.

If you are connected to the internet when you pop the game in and the game doesn't prompt you to download the latest patch, it means you have the second patch (I think). If you don't have the second patch the game will automatically prompt you to download it.

Or you can look at your game data section in the PS3 section to see if the patch is there.

Completely agree. I rented the game a month ago and returned it, but after hearing some of the positive impressions about the patch, I grabbed it again. It plays a LOT better in every capacity. 2 games in and I finally feel comfortable playing NCAA for the first time in a while, and like you I just started a dynasty.

If someone else gave up on this a month ago, I understand it, but I would definitely recommend giving it another shot now.

This game is point on without messing with sliders post patch. We all come from different game levels and since I don't play nearly as often as the gurus on this site, I have been pleasantly surprised at the difficulty levels and competition with the CPU!

After going undefeated with USC, I took a 3 yr. contract with ND. Back loaded my schedule with highly ranked teams and I'm getting throttled. Having big fun without the hassel of worrying about sliders.

I'm thinking about getting the game for the PS3 and I have a question about the new patch. I can't play online so can i still get the patch and put it on the game with my jump drive?

No. You have to go online directly with the PS3.

I'm picking this up this week for 360 and am looking forward to playing. Sounds like the game is playing really well now that Patch #2 is out. I'm glad I waited to buy until now b/c had I picked it up at launch, and with all the issues it had, I probably would've traded it in long ago.

Is there any other way I can get it?

I play this game more than most but I have to say it is terribly flawed in the AI department. There are so many WTF moments it makes me depressed.

It is playable and enjoyable, especially with online dynasty.
