Re: NCAA Football 11 Patch #3 and Live Tuning Pack 3 Available (PS3)
Are you kidding me? So 3 star recruits are coming in LOWER? What the hell. Let's hope they progress a lot more or this just made dynasty a lot worse. Looks like I have some simming and testing to do.Ive seen neither of these working. Ive simmed 2 seasons and have seen ABSOLUTELY NO in-season progression.
Freshman are not coming in higher. They are coming in lower. 1 and 2 stars may be slightly higher, but 3 stars are waaaaayyy lower. FAU had like 10 3* commits and only 1 was in the 60s and he was a 61, the rest were 50s.
Progression is good and big time teams do have better recruits. Teams like Ohio State are still signing too many JUCOs and have too many walk ons. I seen Florida and Oklahoma have like 4-5 players with overalls in the 40s and 50s.
Im not liking what I see so far on this front. Now im hearing the defense sucks too. Uggghhhhh, come on Madden roster update!!Ohio State - Reds - Bengals - Blackhawks - BullsComment

Were you playing as Ole Miss against Jackson St ?Wow there is ZERO defense in this game right now. Just played me (Cincinnati) vs FCS Southeast and it's 21-21 after the 1st quarter.
The FCS QB has completed every pass. I'm getting zero pass rush on him. When I blitz I get near him but he releases the ball at the last second to the open reciever. Robo QB definitely.
This was on heisman by the way.I'm not the best player but I've never had a FCS light me up like this lol. I was able to score on them with ease also. I'm going to have to mess around with sliders for sure.

There is a wide gap between top tier 3* and low tier 3* from what I have seen. Borderline 4s and borderline 2s.Comment

That's never been how in-season progression has worked in the past. A feature that only works for User teams and not CPU teams is not a feature, but a cheat. It's no better than the "boosters" in Dynasty mode.
I'd be shocked if EA suddenly changed the way that in-season progression works after implementing the same feature for a decade, but it appears that way given the comments from PS3 users.
Russ... if you're out there... can you please explain HOW in-season progression works. Does it happen for simulated games/seasons? Does it happen for CPU controlled teams?
I'm sure a lot of dynasty mode gamers won't like the feature if it is essentially another boost for the User in a Dynasty mode that has always been too easy to dominate.Comment

This patch is exposing some frauds online.
Ripped to shreds some dude sitting in press man all game with mediocre CBs...he started taking a knee at the end of the 3rd quarter, and crying about how defense was taken out of the game..and called me a cheeser for running the run and shoot.
High comedy.Comment

Wish I was. Teams on the same level as FAU are like this. They had 5-8 3 star players. The highest rated guy was a 61. Everyone else was in the 50s. They had a few 1 star players who were rated higher than a lot of their 3 star guys. So I blieve that 1-2 star guys have better ratings, which still doesnt matter. But why are recruiting powerhouses like Ohio State, Texas, Florida, Oklahoma getting these guys???
Im kinda ticked at the fact that top level teams have 40s and 50s on their rosters. Florida had a 47 overall freshman LT. Oklahoma had a DT in the 40s.
Its still very bland. Teams like Arizona will never have any 90s on their roster in the future. Unless they jump out and get a 4 star recruit. Im thinking that recruits overalls have been dumbed down based on what team they sign with. Arizonas 3 stars were better than FAUs 3 stars. And some of the FAU guys were higher in the position ranking. Im simming some more to look.PSN: buckeye02Comment

Is zone D working any better sport? If they neutered man cov and zone D is still a joke like it was pre patch #3(which is possibly why he stayed in man D) that may lead to people getting beat down.This patch is exposing some frauds online.

High comedy.EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.Comment

Re: NCAA Football 11 Patch #3 and Live Tuning Pack 3 Available, Impressions Here (PS3
What I want to know is .... Has the tuned pass defense, both zone and man, made this game unplayable??? Is the combo of pass rush and pass d been killed and allow the robo QBs for every team to come back. The pass D was good when the game first came out. So whats it like now?
If so, im not going to waste my time simming anymore, and ill just sit and wait for the madden roster update on Thurs.
EDIT: just simmed another season with FAU. All my 3* commits were rated in the mid 50s this time. All 4 of them. Highest was a 58.Last edited by buckeye02; 09-07-2010, 08:49 PM.PSN: buckeye02Comment
