NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

And this ends the streak of day 1 purchases for me. Though I do enjoy this years game. Two months for a patch is ridiculous. Stopped buying Madden last year and am probably never getting it again (just can't get into starting sports games once the season is half over). Now it's just down to The Show, NHL and well, I guess FIFA counts, not a soccer diehard but I do pick it up within the first couple months of release now since '10.

WHat time of the day do patches normally drop?

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

I think patches can drop anytime. But usually in the morning

Usually early morning, but I don't think you'll have to worry about that for 2 more weeks unfortunately.

Did I miss the "Patches ONLY come out on Tuesdays" memo? I've had plenty of games get patches released anytime during the work week.

It's hilarious reading through this thread and seeing how many people miss this point. Patches do not equal store updates.

EA Sports really knows how to make good impressions I mean does it really take 2 Months for a patch to come out I mean at least give us something like a date that would be more appreciated then just at the end of the month come EA! Hopefully Madden isn't the same for I can't believe it is taking this long

Yeah but even if that were true, if the patch was anywhere near coming out this week don't you think it would've been announced? When's the last time you saw a patch just appear out of nowhere?

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

What confuses me is that the very first post of the thread went into quite a bit of detail and even pointed out that we would not need to redo rosters or restart our dynasties. This led me to believe that the patch would arrive quickly. I was under the impression that the problems were largely resolved and it was now an issue of testing and then getting the patch cleared.

They've already stated what was going to be in it, why make another announcement about the release that they may or may not live up to? And, besides that, if it's been submitted already EA has no control over when it's actually released - it's up to Sony and MS.

Also, I'm pretty sure there wasn't a whole lot of warning about one of last year's patches...I remember Madden and NCAA patches dropping on the same day last year (in the early morning hours) with little or no prior announcement. I'll do some digging to try and find the thread on here.

Then EA could let us know where the patch stands. Granted, they announced that it would release before the end of the month so it appears to be on schedule so maybe the reaction from the community is a bit unwarranted, but have we heard anything regarding the patch since the initial announcement? Even if it is along the lines of "sorry guys, ran into a problem. Patch is delayed until second week of September." That would still be preferable to silence.

With Skyrim, Battlefield 3, Deus Ex, Fifa 12, NBA2k12, Batman Arkham City, Infamous 2, and the other 20+ excellent games I have or getting. I seriously think EA football has to come out blowing my mind next year to get any business from me.

Personally I think I will go on a game buying strike and finish all the different games I have yet to complete.

Nothing worse than wanting to get your Online dynasty started with your friends and you can't because the game RELEASED BROKEN!!!

Re: NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

Look on the bright side. It's giving the roster makers tons of time to polish up their files.

I'm not happy the patch isn't out yet, I'm just trying to stay positive.

I already started doing that haha, finally beat Demon's Souls! At least when that game pisses me off it's my own fault.

Somehow I'd doubt EA would say whether or not Sony & MS are currently in possession of the patch. Doing so would risk irritating Sony/MS by pressuring to release a patch that may not have been tested to make sure it doesn't cause problems with Sony or MS's network (at least that's what I've previously heard).
