    Re: Backbreaker Greathouse (Patch version) Impressions

    Anybody else getting annoyed by WRs not be able to hang on to the ball? Nobody on my team except for Andre Johnson can make a catch if they even get touched white trying to catch it. There are drops all over the freaking place all of a sudden.

      Are you doing the user catch?

      I remember 2k5 had a ton of drops but if you user caught the ball it was rarely dropped.

        There is no user catch as far as I can tell.

          To user catch, change to the WR and hold the focus button.

            And I'm supposed to have time to do that when throwing to a receiver running a quick slant 3 yards in front of me? I shouldn't have to do that to get him to catch the f'ing ball.

              Are there any left handed QB's in this game? I just don't like seeing Vick drop back as a righty!!

                  The game is very difficult now. I never lost on Hard before, and post-patch I'm 2-3. Honestly, I think they went a bit too far. It feels like playing NCAA on Heisman now. I just feel cheated. WRs can't catch, run plays get blown up in the backfield, there's perfect man coverage about 70% of the time. Tried playing on Medium and it was a little better, but I'll have to do several games to get a true feel for it.

                    Hard is too Hard for me right now post-patch...I was getting killed 28-0 when I quit and started a Medium game...hopefully when I completely master it I can start playing it again but right now Medium is a good difficulty I feel like

                        The patch has messed up downloaded rosters on PS3. Depth charts are all out of whack for some teams, and not just order, but in ratings. Tony Romo is now the lowest rated QB on the Cowboys roster, for instance. Same with Eli Manning on the Giants. They'll need to be completely redone with the new patch.

                          Do you think that's why WRs are dropping so much or is that not related?
                          Being kind, one to another, never disappoints.

                            Rosters probably don't have to be redone.Try using a saved file of yours or downloading one and I think things should be alright.I have the 360 but think that the problem is what was in-game when accepting the patch.

                            For instance,if you tweak anything in the main screen for a team(gold star players,team bias)the ratings will completely change so I think that's what's happening here.

                              Tried it, and they're still messed up. Downloaded a new roster file and uploaded it and it has the problems mentioned above. Also things like Ray Rice being the lowest rated RB on the Ravens.

                                I have to wait for the 360 update but would try saving the custom team file after the patch onto a flashdrive then copying and pasting the id numbers to the file(through modio)that I want to download then put that file onto my harddrive.
