    Re: Madden NFL 10 Patch #2 Available, Impressions Here (360)

    One thing I noticed I was playing a guy online and he had the Steelers and they had on their Super Bowl patches on the uniforms. Not a game killer just something I saw.
    Fav teams:
    MLB: Tigers NFL: Lions NCAA: Michigan/WVU

      Here's what I mean. If I offer a guy a four year contract like this:
      Year 1: 1 million salary, 200k bonus
      Year 2: 1 million salary, 200k bonus
      Year 3: 1 million salary, 200k bonus
      Year 4: 1 million salary, 200k bonus

      In total, that's a 4.8 million dollar contract. But the offer screen on the bottom right will tell me that the offer is larger--maybe six million. It doesn't match. So I don't know what I'm actually offering the player, or what the payout per-year will be, because the offers seem to be different.

      Am I going crazy or is this new since the second patch?
      Actually, it's easier to see than that. Just offer a guy a one-year contract. His salary and bonus on the per-year part of the contract screen isn't going to match the total salary and bonus on the right-hand side of the screen. So which offer is the right one?

        is it because if you're restructuring a contract to someone who already has a contract, dos it add their old bonus + the new contract? that way you cant get out of paying someone a bonus you gave them?

          No, it's apparently because I'm an idiot. I waited a couple of months for the last patch before I restarted a franchise, so I haven't done contracts in a while. I remembered Salary not including the bonus amount (so 10M salary + 5M bonus meant a 15M contract), but that's not how they do it--Salary is the total amount, including bonus, but bonus is broken out separately below. I checked it and everything adds up.

          I hear the moron alert going off. For me.

            Is there any way to download the AFL content without downloading patch #2?

            IT seems like I have do download the patch to do anything w/ EA online.

              I'm seeing this a lot now as well. I can't believe it, as bad as it was in 09 and now I'm seeing it every time I blitz a MLB and get close to the QB. It seems they fix one thing and break another.

                My complaint is not with poor refereeing, I think that should be in the game. My problem is when a sideline catch is made and I challenge it, the replay shows the WR was clearly out of bounds, yet the play is not reversed, they call it a catch. In my first Franchise game Dwyane Bowe caught a pass in the endzone one foot from the edge of the endzone and they called it incomplete. I challenged it, the replay showed he was in bounds, yet the call was not reversed, no catch, no TD. Frustrating.
                Maan!!!! I had the same thing happen to me in a play now game against my boy yesterday. I needed the catch to be up by 10 and that was 3rd down. Kicked a field goal, but I had to call HO ASSISTANCE on the play. I was super pissed!!! Shouldn't happen. Oh and the cpu didn't challenge it inside 2:00.

                  Just not sure why they broke the Wildcat on purpose...doesn't make any sense to me.

                    Was just prompted to do another update... Anyone know why?...
                    I am glad I got the Buell- I love riding it, I love the oddball looks I get on the road- I love people asking "What IS that thing?" I love flying into a corner WAY too hot, scared spitless and sure I'll never hold it at this speed- and hearing the bike whisper "Sissy!"...

                        no freaking running back should be AVERAGE 200+ yards a game.

                          So true. Nor should any running back get 369 yards off 14 carries and 6 TDs in a game, as Darren McFadden did in a simmed CPU vs CPU game. In the whole season 3 RBs smashed AP's yards in a game record - 369, 359, 354 are the new top 3 records for rushing in a game in my franchise now...

                            SO I have played 2 seasons without a patch. I Have used sliders similar to drew bledsoe's. I Have enjoyed it a lot so far. MY question is...should I download the patches? Will it do more harm than good? I want real stats and to be able to lose fairly to the computer.

                              The game, with sliders, play s great on the field now, but they just destroyed sim stats.

                              I was hoping this was a case of peeps on the board going overboard, but it is true. The amount of yardage and YPC by backs is just crazy. I would MUCH rather have the old stat system than this mess. Im not sure why they thought it was okay.
