    Ok, next time you go to your local supermarket and they sell you spoiled milk and rotten food for which you paid, its ok, cause they "owe you nothing".

    Or at a car dealership and they sell you a NEW vehicle, except the heat/ac doesnt work, the radio has no signal, and the wiper blades dont work. Oh yeah, the gas gauge is broken too, but its ok, they "owe you nothing".

      I haven't read the entire thread so if this has been stated please forgive me, but if when you edit a player and it says he is a 'scrambler', but on the roster screen lists him 'balanced' I don't think they would have to re-enter names, at least I hope not.

There are thousands of people out there who don't even care that this bug exists and are enjoying this game.

        Also--the game plays without these issues minus the named rosters. If you are that bothered by the gameplay with the named rosters, delete them and play with the numbered rosters until the patch hits. Remember back in the PS1 days?

        Major oversight by EA? Possibly. Major inconvenience for us that want to start dynasty's? Yes. Gamebreaker? No.

        We just are stuck waiting for the patch--yes it sucks. End of story.
        and if all the roster makers are forced to go through their rosters and edit every single messed up tendency back to it's correct state (including someone documenting which players were changed and to what)??

          What if they dont? EA already has your money. LOL.

            Im talking only if the patch makes the roster makers re-do the names, and everyone that waits for names has to wait again to start their dynastys.

              i wish people would just stop arguing and get word out to EA to get it fixed!! I would also like to know more about this so called "HDR LIGHTING SCANDAL" supposedly EA did something to downgrade the graphics?? and the game looks better pre-patch.... I deleted the patch to see myself and idk if it was just my mind playing tricks on me but the graphics looked slightly better after i deleted EAs initial launch update...? if anyone knows anything about this PLEASE HELP!!!

                Exactly. I am hoping that once they patch it everything just switches back to normal but there is a chance that it won't be that easy.

                  Thanks. That means everyone will have to wait maybe a week or 2. I'm not trying to be an *** but EA is only concerned about next year's sales at this point and most of you will have forgotten about this by the time next years game comes around. Starting Monday, they start marketing the hell out of Madden so that will be their financial focus.

                    Well then I'm a sucker for buying the game. I'm a college football addict & buy the game yearly; no matter how it is because I love playing with USC.

                      I think the (conspiracy) theory is that EA trotted out this beautiful version of the game with the lighting that didn't play right (slowdown, glitches, etc) and then patched the graphics to reduce those things which made the game run better. Bait and switch mostly.

                        Also, if this really happens every year then the blame starts to move over to the customer. What other product would you buy every year if you know that out of the box there would be issues and that you wouldnt be satisfied with the product until a month or two after you bought it? I know I cant think of one yet every year you guys rush in mass to buy the game Day 1.
                        I feel it is huge. Editing rosters is huge in a lot of sports games, but especially college. Their are people that wait to play their game or dynasty until rosters are out. As someone else said, if I want to edit something as simple as a wristband, it potentially screws that player up and how he plays.

                        Last year I got NCAA first day, this year I got it early. While I like last years, dynasty became unplayable and now this bug this year. I've learned my lesson with NCAA Like I did with Madden three years ago. It will be wait and see next year.

                        But what really bothers me... Is when I go in my bedroom and see NCAA07 for LG, and see at one point in time, with the exclusive deal, they were able to get it right.

                          Dont get me wrong. So am I. I just think its useless to overreact to this because it happens every year and with almost every sports game. EA knows about the glitch and I expect that they are looking into how to fix this.

                            Im more disgusted in myself than EA, I was blinded by NCAA mania. Just last night, my wife said "You shouldve waited two weeks", damn near threw her out the window.

                              Huge to you is different than others. The majority of my OD refuses to play until this is fixed. Nobody wants to play a 70 speed QB and watch him try to run 15 times a game, but have a speedster not use his natural athleticism to help his team out. Might not be broken, but it definitely has a major effect on gameplay.

                              On blaming the consumers: People probably shouldn't go get this on release day anymore, but you think that a company as large as EA could avoid releasing a broken game every year. Are we morons for buying it? Yes. But that doesn't give the company an excuse to put out a broken product. Look at the backlash over NASCAR 2011. You want to tell me that company hasn't lost a ton of respect and money due to that fiasco? EA has been heading this way. Many people are now just waiting and buying the game used instead of on release day.

                              OS customers are a different breed than the majority. We get it on release day because we're college football and college football gaming junkies. We will suffer through a broken game and play it because it's our only way, with the exclusive contract EA has. Plenty of people I know that used to go out at midnight to pick up the game have stopped and now buy it used. The midnight release at my local GameStop has gone from 150 people to about 35 in the past 3 years. For 11, I showed up at 11:30 and got my game at 12:20. This year, I showed up at 11:45 and got it at 12:03. People aren't going out in droves anymore to pick it up like they used to because the quality isn't there. Only the hardcore people, like OS members, are.

                                Here is the reality: You guys want new features every year right? Well alot of times when they add new features or fix issues from the previous year....things get broken. EA would have no problem at all just giving you NCAA 07 every year with updated rosters if people were willing to buy it but that isnt the case. So saying "It worked last year" doesnt matter because this is a new game with new features that can sometimes cause big problems.

                                Every year as these games add more features and become more advanced the likelihood of bugs like this increase. I hope you actually do wait next year but if you dont lets not go overboard with the bitching. You've been warned two years straight now.
