Re: Backbreaker Patch Details

I agree I dk if it is his accent or what but he just sounds ignorant or slow. I enjoy his vids but they can be hard to listen to at times.

I love Apex. Always have. I guess I just like his type of humor.

This patch looks amazing. Can't wait to start my RTBB again!

PS: Go Clemson!

All this and still no fatigue or injuries... Oh well this good for those of you who love this game. Its too late for me it won't crack my game play rotation but I think the percenatge of BB2 is gone up a bit..

cause there still any realistic way to add injuries and fatigue

Re: Backbreaker Patch Details

is this the most extensive patch ever or what?

I was thinking the same thing. I mean I just kept scrolling and scrolling and by the end of it was completely blown away. That's unprecedented for sure.

I can't believe they were able to do all that. Awesome.

edit; adding plays and Formations was a great surprise. I guess they could keep doing that into the future if they wanted too. I'd like to see qb roll-outs.

The information on page one was added because of the information posted throughout the thread. Thanks for the help though.

They said in development they wanted to add injuries but didnt want to do it in a half *** way (random roll system) that is used by most every other game. They wanted it to actually take into physics and taking into consideration the contact on certain limbs/joints. They unfortunately ran out of time. This will probably make it into BB2.... if there is one.

Sony can release the patch right away but microsoft has to review it first and that takes awhile sometimes a week!

Re: Backbreaker Patch Details

If anyone is going out to buy this game because of the patch, I'd hope you show the devs your support by buying the game new.

Reason being, Natural Motion, like all game companies, don't see a dime from used game sales.

I'm pretty sure Backbreaker retails for $40 new these days, so you are already saving $20 off the normal price for most sports games.

This game was well-worth $40 before the patch, and it should only be that much better after it.

BUY NEW, NOT USED!

Agreed. I have not bought the game yet, but am going to do so now after reading the patch notes. I'm blown away by how much the developers listened to its community and worked so hard in such a short amount of time to re-vamp the game. I have some Reward Zone coupons to use up, and this will be the game I get as a result.

I think it's safe to say that every other sports game developer has been put on notice with this patch: Step your game up! Natural Motion really set the bar high in terms of post-release support with the amount of detail that has gone into this patch.

Sorry to break it to you, but Sony has a certification process too. You can leave the console wars out of this thread.

Now this is a real patch. I can't believe I traded this in!! =( May have to go pick it up again IF everything works as they say.

Re: Backbreaker Patch Details

Wow! That's a lot of stuff to put into a patch. I'm impressed at the level of commitment from the dev team. Personally, I don't see how a patch this large can come out so quickly and not introduce some other issues, but clearly this will make the game better. But either way, good job from the dev team being responsive and diving head first into your game to try and improve it...especially since this patch will not likely garner very much in the way of additional sales, especially with Madden coming out. Still though, you have made your current customer base very happy and have put yourselves in a stronger position if there is a Backbreaker 2.

I really cannot believe these guys are rolling out such an extensive patch. Kinda dwarfs anything EA or other devs release by miles.

I agree with those that say you should buy new. I'm eager to see how this plays post-patch and if the reviews are promising, I'm getting this thing new. Madden has lost me. NCAA is great (waiting for that patch as well), but to have a solid football playing experience w/ this engine is exciting.

BB2 could be the real deal.

I agree this patch far exceeded my expectations. I thought they would beef up the Oline and fix the penalty/block kick issues. I had no idea it would be this big.

Re: Backbreaker Patch Details

I like the name, but nothing beats Media Molecule (the LittleBigPlanet dev team) naming their patches after types of cheeses.
The demo turned me off to the initial release, but I'll be reading patch impressions and might consider picking this new game up.
