    that is true, as we won't know what "fixed" means until the new rosters are released, providing another set is indeed released to the community.

    Given that Adam mentioned that the wrong roster file was uploaded into the game, I'm hoping that its a matter of just uploading the correct roster.

      I know defending EA is your thing, but this is totally different. Madden fixes important things like pass rush and momentum, not botching simple things like rosters to begin with. Decent rosters should be a given for any sports game.

        actually it's not my thing. not sure where you get that just because i'm excited to play the game. bottom line is they are fixing things based on community feedback which to me says they care just as much as the Madden team.

          A "fixed" roster will be available on release day.

              I'm interested to hear what the final fix ends up being for rosters. I'm sure they'll let us know once substantial progress has been made and there's light at the end of that tunnel.
              the fix is the finished rosters che did for thegame that were mistakenly NOT shipped for print.

              They are very tight from what my guy tells me, the dude is the best roster guy NCAA has seen.

                Madden has the right to use real players. They have contract info and only 32 teams. NCAA has no player name rights, players only staying 3-5 years. They have mass amounts of change every year with 120 teams (hopefully more in the future) to update.

                I, for one, can see how NCAA Rosters is a much more daunting task than Madden. An unfair comparison if you ask me.

                  They never said they had "2". They said they uploaded the WRONG set. Look, I don't mean this personally towards you, but people that have NO clue about software development need to settle down a bit.

                  I'll explain it one more time. It's called Software Version Control. What happens is the roster guy has the initial version of the rosters. He updates the roster, and saves it (or sometimes "checks it in"). The system creates a new version of the file(s), while saving the older versions. So now the system holds RosterFile.1 and RosterFile.2. This iterates and iterates, while the whole software package (what we know as NCAA 10) creates "stable baselines", which are when milestones in the program are met, and each part of the program gets delivered to this common baseline.

                  What can happen (and happens A LOT) is that the final baseline (the released version of the product) can get the wrong version of a file into the baseline. This is how this happens, and it isn't the roster's guy fault, Russ's fault, Adam's fault, or any combination of the above. It usually will fall on the Software Configuration Management group, and you're stuck with it.

                  I work for a large software corporation that is a contractor for the Department of Defense. It happens in our products, and these products are just a tad bit more important than a video game. It happens. They're fixing it, and that's the important thing.

                    If they don't patch the sliders along with this other crap, they just lost a sale. I've now completely lost faith in the NCAA dev team. Just beyond ticked right now. Time to go to bed.

                        Russ/Adam,

                        Vandy's rosters are completely updated for the fall and are available on http://vucommodores.cstv.com/sports/...ootbl-mtt.html - if you are still updating them for the EA Locker/Patch release. The accurate depth chart is available at http://vucommodores.cstv.com/sports/...rospectus.html with the exception of Freshmen, most all of whom are to be redshirted.
