NCAA Football 11 Patch #2 Update (EA Sports Blog)

Re: NCAA Football 11 Patch #2 Update (EA Sports Blog)

It does get annoying hearing people rehash the same things over and over, but at the same time you have a choice on which threads and posts you read. The people at EA who visit this board have the same choice. I'm sure they're mature enough to realize what's helpful and what isn't. They should take comments like "the whole testing team should be canned" as motivation to do a better job testing the game next year. Some of the stuff that slips through (ex: some teams' schedules not being accurate) is inexcusable.

I'm not going to fault someone for venting their frustration unless it gets to a point where they're just blindly insulting people or something. If I get tired of reading their posts, I'll just skip them instead of complaining about people complaining.

It's a patch update thread. It does not appear to be a complaint thread. I'd just kind of think that the countless number of progression threads would suffice for the complaining and the actual patch details and discussion could be talked about here without the incessant negative comments about a problem that is already well-known and has not only been acknowledged by EA, but is also on the agenda of getting fixed. How many threads are on here complaining about progression? I agree that it's a problem, but I really don't need to hear about it in every single thread. I understand this is the patch thread so problems will be discussed, but EA addressed it in the blog.

I wish I was psychic and could see which threads would turn into the same type of complaint threads... but unfortunately I don't.

I love the whole adage about complaining about people who complain... I would usually agree but hey, sometimes that's warranted. My whole point was simple and I understand your points as well, but let's not take this deeper than it needs to go.

I'm sorry but I have to agree. After the initial discussion the next post should have been the tuning patch is out. That's the only reason I visited this thread this morning. Someone said it some posts ago that the thread should have been locked until the patch was released. I don't think that anyone is saying not to voice your opinion but damn every thread? Everything that someone has complained about in this thread, it was complained about weeks ago in the "we need a revolution" thread. I'm sorry if no one is paying attention to that thread anymore but damn this is called the patch two update thread. Yes I realize the irony of complaining further adding to meaningless thread count but it's getting annoying.

I imagine once the tuning set comes out, there will be a new stickied thread. I have pretty much realized by now that this is more or less a discussion/speculation/complaint thread by now.

Come on tuners! Hurry up already! I'm getting sick of RTG and exhibiton games! I'm getting this close to firing up CoD again.

Its been a hard time waiting, but I know that once recruiting is fixed via the tuner its going to be a wonderful time! Do I wish it was today...oh yeah! However I dont mind waiting a bit if its going to get fixed. There are so many other things in life that I will save my angst for.

Waiting for this update seems to only increase my enthusiasm for this game!

I reverted to CoD and Halo 3 yesterday, and was seriously eyeballing Red Dead Redemption. NEED... THE... TUNERS

I'm in the same boat. You could always sit there at work/school/home and daydream about the great recruits that you'll be able to sign. Never mind the people looking at you funny

I almost bought Red Dead Redemption yesterday cause I'm refusing to play this till I get Tuner Sets. I'm afraid to get out and go anywhere for the fear I'm gonna end up at Gamestop.

This is off-topic but a response to your post

Red Dead isn't worth a buy... The game is short enough you can play it through on one rental.

As far as waiting for the tuners go, I have been playing a lot of MW2 again.

You should have bought Red Dead Redemption regardless...It's a GREAT game.

Disagree. If you do any of the side stuff at all it's a lengthy game - took me as long to get through it as GTA4. And it's very fun and has an involving storyline too. I really loved it, looking forward to replaying it.

Speak for yourself I put 30 hours in for 100% like a lot of people, and I found the MP enjoyable for a few weeks after that. I usually don't even play online MP, either. Anyway that's really off-topic now, I'm just as anxious about these tuners myself so I can start all over again.

Nobody knows except EA, who ain't sayin'. Hopefully so.

edit - the tuners may be out tomorrow, the patch (which is separate) certainly won't be.

Sorry for being stupid, but I have to ask. What's the difference between updating the tuners and the second patch?
