    Yep... seen that one. Although in my case we were down my 4 (so a drive to take the lead instead of tie), little over 1:30 to go in the 2nd quarter with 2 timeouts at our opponents 45 and the coach calls a FIRST DOWN PUNT! Luckily I was a HB and on the punting team so I called a timeout. Next play is a pass, then another 1st down punt. Call TO, pass, incomplete and a 2nd down punt from the opponent's 30 yard line with over a minute left on the clock.

      actually not at all, i've been a software dev for 12 years. poorly written code always exhibits nondeterministic behavior. memory leaks, buffer overruns, random generators (like the schedules) - these tend to show very different behavior based on environment

        That's true but in a console environment where the hw and os config is all the same things like mem leaks and the like would be more consistent.

        I also have been in dev starting back in the early 90's.

          guys who have been playing RTG from the start have noted the dumb playcalling for the user team on offense.

            Maybe this has been answered, but did anyone point out that in the player ratings edit screen it still says "Scarmbler" or "Balanced" or whatever the player is at the top, but it's only when you look at the top level of the player info does it appear to be changed.

            Which one really matters in determining how that player will play on the field?

              The roster glitch affects recruiting big time without you having to edit anything.

              -If you are recruiting a balanced FB, he comes to your roster as a receiving FB.

              -If you recruit a balanced QB, he shows up on your roster as a Scrambler.

              Go to the glitch thread, page 34 and this glitch is listed with pictures.

              The game is just flip-flopping balanced, with other tendencies. Leaves me thinking that rosters might be salvagable.

              Looks like they have addressed this issue with the first patch. Any timetable on when that will be released, im guessing months. Which is sad. Madden may have taken this games place by then. All the other glitches listed are terrible as well.

              I pray that the first patch leaves gameplay alone and just fixes errors. The defense is tough on this game, and Im assuming that they will dumb down the defense with a patch like last year. Id hate for that too happen.

                I didn't read the whole thread, so this might have been mentioned, but it would appear that this is the reason for so many undersized 'power' backs. It's a minor thing I've noticed for several years now, but you'd have a back with a low 40 time, who weighs about 166, and looks like he should be a 'speed' back, but he's listed as a 'power' back. This would lend credence to the idea that this has been around awhile, and we just never noticed.

                  *Gucci Mane voice* Well damn!

                  Good thing I copped NHL 11 as a back up game to this one just in case a huge bug were to come along.

                  Every game I have played has been with pastapadre's rosters on AA difficulty and was getting somewhat frustrated with the Super LB's but was still enjoying the game.

                  I am sorry if this has been asked already, but 93 pages alot to read through and I was just wondering when we can expect a patch?

                    I'm pretty sure it takes two weeks for a patch to get approved, so probably mid August at the earliest.

                            Also, Gators game froze this morning while trying to enter a RTG game. IT froze while checking for Season Showdown updates and then wouldnt let him exit out of the "message of the day" which was to watch episode 2 of the making of NCAA Football.

                            Thats disgusting that you are forced to deal with SS while being signed online. And the message of the day is super annoying. Littering your game with advertisements after you PAID for the game. I couldnt understand if the game was free.

                            Any more news from EA on this roster glitch issue though??
                            Dont know how you are connected to the internet but i simply unplugged the ethernet cord from the back of my xbox and it solves the problem of being stuck trying to load online content (message of day or season showdown)

                              That's unknown at this time, but i have the feeling this is a database isuess and new rosters files will have to be made

                                if thats the case then thats just about enough for me to trade in my disc. and i imagine all fo the people who worked on the community rosters would feel the same
