NCAA Football 12 Roster Glitch Confirmed, Patch to Address Concerns

[ActLikeYouCrow]

Re: Possible roster glitch

i wonder how much the tendency change affects the defenders. you know i came across this while playing with the default named rosters. default roster clemson's starting qb is listed as scrambler and their backup is balanced, but has very low awareness and terrible run skills. the backup started the game because the starter was injured and he scrambled a lot more than anyone else did against me that whole season.

i'll have to go back and see if i can look at stats, but it struck me as odd at the time.

I noticed that as well. Forgot who it was, but it was the back up and his tendancy said balance but he scrambled a hell of a lot. Where as the starting QB with no names was a scrambler but with names he is balanced but he didn't scramble at all.

It was the same way when a starter RB got hurt and his back up came in. He played 10 times better then the starting RB, even though his ratings was very poor, 56 awareness, 57 BCV, etc. But yet he was running, juking, very damn good.

Another thing I noticed is I see way more big hits, leg tackles and different animations with no names then I do with names.

Re: Possible roster glitch

So basically guys are playing opposite of their intended playstyle? I never thought id play without names but thats how its looking.

It would require some testing but it seems possible that happens. If so, then I agree I will go back to playing without names.

Edit - It seems gotmadzkillz has done some testing and noticed a difference. Others say it's not as bad. I would test on your own and see what you think.

How will this affect cpu/cpu games in dynasty? Will stats be thrown off? This sounds like itll have several cascading problems.

It may not be that bad but can't say for sure. I know in my Penn State dynasty with Gming tailgate's rosters. Pryor was leading the Heisman race but I honestly don't recall what his numbers were.

Re: Possible roster glitch

It's frozen one time in 20+ games. That was at the very beginning of a dynasty game with OS roster names.

Mine has only frozen once and on the first day... maybe I can get away with playing with these rosters too : ) Time to play a game against Michigan I guess.

Edit: Yea, I'm not seeing this problem. Robinson has been roaming in the pocket and broke off twice in one quarter of play. Returns are normal.

Well i hope this is something easily tuned or patched.

Did you try it with names to see the difference?

Re: Possible roster glitch

It's odd... why are named rosters always causing trouble?

Wasn't it back on 10 or 11 a couple of weeks after release that there was trouble with teams dissapearing or something like that because of named rosters?

Re: Possible roster glitch

Isn't the freezing a console specific problem? Since release, all games at all times have had freezing problems on my Xbox.

Meanwhile, not one game ever has frozen on my PS3. Maybe its just me and my crappy luck.

Re: Possible roster glitch

Yeah it does seem to be effecting the 360 users more then the PS3 users.

Re: Possible roster glitch

With names, 5 for 17, 3 of the attempts were sacks. Im putting this in bugs/glitches thread. He wasnt the same at all.
