Another uniform glitch post patch:

Reebok logo is fine on normal sleeves, but tucked sleeves, the logo flips to a vertical positioning.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #1 Available, Post Impressions Here

What exactly has this patch fixed? From the four games I've played, I noticed run blocking is better and the holding penalty glitch in kicks is fixed. Anything else?

Because I'm just not feeling it yet. Patch seems to created more little, nagging issues, and of course, one major headache -- kickoff returns for TDs with great regularity.

I tinkered with the game before the patch and had it to the point where it was giving me a good game. I'm thinking of deleting this patch and just downloading it prior to patch 2, which I hope fixes the mess from patch 1.

Imagine that, now we need patches to fix patches. How insane is that?

Is there a way to delete the patch but keep the roster update? i was actually having a realistic game setting pre-patch, now i throw interceptions for touchdowns 5-6 times a game and that is just lame

5-6 times a game? I just played the first 4 weeks of a franchise season and had 1 pick six in total. I've also noticed it has happened less under the new patch. Just goes to show that perception is everything....

Nothing in the patch should have increased the frequency of this. So by all means uninstall the patch, but I suspect you're going after the wrong culprit. More likely it is your sliders.

Or just his style of play, I haven't seen any increase in this either. I have noticed blocking being a little better, but they still seem to realese there blocks to early IMO.

I understand what you're saying, but isn't this nitpicking?

No.




C'mon, stop attacking each other. What do you care if someone points out something not important to YOU. Does it hurt the game? Would you not like even the smallest of issues fixed? Do you have nothing else to post about? Do you work for EA? C'mon. Geeeeeeez.

Are you on 360? If so, you'll need to clear your cache. To do that, Go to the system blade and then select memory>Press Y on the HD symbol and then press X,X,Left Bumper, Right Bumper, X,X. Once you do this a messsage will appear saying: Do you want to perform maintenance on your Xbox 360 storage devices?

Remember, you cant play online without the latest patch. The next time, and each time you pop in the game while signed in, you will have to hit no when it asks you to update.

I'm not attacking him. I understand that it's something that matters to him, but from my perspective, it's not that big of a deal. Just my opinion. It's certainly not something that makes the game unplayable. That's all I'm saying. No hard feelings.

it looks like they tried to patch big plays with the stupid stutter step or pimp walk looking animation in the open field.

Thanks, but that won't clear the roster update as well?

To say the gameplay took a turn for the worse, is all a matter of opinion.

9 out of 10 people say they are getting sick when they take a certain medication. Is that still opinion?? The majority of people hate this patch= Bad patch, not opinion. It's a terible patch.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #1 Available, Post Impressions Here

The hitch thing does happen. I dont have a webcam so I cant capture it, but as I've said before, its usually seen during run plays in the open field and kickoff returns. Its like a freeze in motion, and it looks terrible.

I've seen it a lot lately, and it's disgusting to watch. It looks like it's skipping frames. It's enough the animations are terrible, but now they skip frames which makes things worst.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #1 Available, Post Impressions Here

I was just about to make my first post on this thread to talk about the laggy running motion. I noticed this right off the bat. Hopefully they fix this quick-like, not months. Madden 10 is the best title they have put out in a while and a patch is hurting it.

And no its not nitpicking when something is right and then they "patch" it and it turns to wrong. Thats called pointing out something to people who should have seen this weeks before we did.

The pass coverage is a lot better. Now I need a whole new set of sliders. In my first franchise I played with a better team and still got smoked by the passing game. Now im playing with a weaker team and im not. So something definately changed with the pass coverage. Its a shame that it lagged out the run game though. A once beautiful game now having framerate issues due to a patch.

I still say the tackle calculating system in broken. Either im just not getting a lot of tackles per individual or this point tackle/tackle for a loss system is still robbing me.

And to whoever said "now we need patches to fix patches" I give you kudos. Classic EA.

Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #1 Available, Post Impressions Here

anyone else experiencing more penalties? I've been called for pass interference twice, once on defense and once on offense. The Lions were just called for PI as well.

CB,
I still have not seen any PA calls for either side. What sliders are you playing with? Or are these on default?
