NCAA Football 12 Update From EA SPORTS

Re: NCAA Football 12 Update from EA SPORTS

Probably too late to post this and get an official EA response, but what is the progress on all the freezes? I'm getting tons of freezes even after the patch and updates. In game, out of game, on loading screens. It's all too much.

I really dont get why some of you are giving people crap about them complaining about this game. Yes the gameplay of this game is good but not great and that is about it. Yes my dynasty is finally working but my other dynasty is not. We play our dynasty year round from the time we get it till the next one comes out. All we are asking for is something that works not something they keep messing up more and more. Am I happy they are trying yes but who knows if it will be fixed or more things will be broke.

The single most important reason for buying this game to me is to play OD....and right now its constantly freezing to the point of being unable to be played. ARE YOU GUYS WORKING ON ALL THE FREEZING THAT IS MAKING THE OD UN-PLAYABLE??????

You didn't even read Dewiel's post, did you?

Thank You!

And people tend to wonder why EA developers don't like to make their presence known on the forum.

Than man simply did the forum members a favor by keeping them updated, and in return just gets absolutely drilled for his efforts.

Maybe the EA developers should do us a favor by testing the game thoroughly before releasing it. This isn't some favor that's being done, it's purely damage control and accountability for poor implmentation of features that don't work, or were broken by the last patch.

Favors......lol

Name of Dynasty: TheDynastyII

Console:PS3

Gamertag/PSN ID: Stegz

Commissioner's Gamertag/PSN ID: Stegz

Number of users in Dynasty: 7

Exact week/spot where you are stuck: Season 2 Week 2

Date & Approx time of your last transfer failure error (Please try again and provide the info if you don't remember): 9/23 @ 1 am est

When it is failing? (For example, is it when you're trying to upload a game, a team change, or after advancing a week? If it's advancing a week, can you include whether it is when you're advancing to or from your week. For example, advancing to week 7.): After you finish your game and exit to the online dynasty, it fails on the upload process. No results are recorded and you're forced to exit and lose results.

Any special settings in your dynasty (Custom Playbooks, TeamBuilder,
Coaching Carousel, Custom Conferences): All user teams are teambuilder teams. Custom Conferences are being used. I'll have to go look at this to put everything that we've done in that area. Bowl qualifiers were also changed. The Big Ten gets the Rose and all others were set to Any. The Big East was removed from automatic BCS qualifiers, so there are 3 At Large spots.

If you're using Custom Conferences, what changes did you make? (Ex. Turning the Big East into a 16 team league):see above.

I'll update this when I sign back on there.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Update From EA SPORTS

What about the custom playbook situation? How some formations are missing and how you can't get rid of some plays/formations from your playbook entirely. Sorry if any information regarding has been posted somewhere else on this board, but I didn't see it around, or in this post.

NCAA is my favorite video game series ever and it hurts me seeing the game how it is so just send me the game, I'll test it for FREE! That's right EA, you can send me NCAA 13 and I will play it nonstop for weeks on end and do testing for you without costing you a dime. Sounds like a great deal right? Let's make it happen!

I might not take it quite that far, but that's funny. And it is probably my biggest issue.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Update From EA SPORTS

This may have been mentioned already, but I'd love to see dlineman falling down right away fixed. It makes controlling the dline, which I like to do, kinda impossible.

Re: NCAA Football 12 Update From EA SPORTS

Why do that when they can charge us 64 bucks to test it..


BTW I was always against people that said that ^^ but after this years fiasco of a game im on board with them.

simply put: because they can. Broke records this year with sales... the key to selling NCAA is to own the exclusive license and hype the game with a bunch of features that everyone has been asking about. Those features do not have to properly work because we all run out and buy the game on release day before we are the wiser. To alter the business model and properly test the game would simply eat into profits.

Also factor in the fact that we are 2.5 months post release and EA doesn't even know how to fix it.... so had they found all these issues out earlier it would have done no good and possibly harmed sales if it leaked that the game's new features don't really work.

i think OS probably has a handful of guys who can do a better job than EA's hired game testers if they even have any.....

reality is we are probably their game testers for free.....they waite for us to report flaws after the game is sold and then make patches based on our complaints

That's a pretty pathetic tactic but hey it's working because every year we get the game and report back to them what needs fixed..

The casual gamer doesn't care if they can score 75 points per game just off of vertical plays alone that is what they love......and EA caters to that group 1st

They don't care that RB's run right into the crowd of defenders instead of away from them....they don't care that QB's can't read defenses or execute option plays correctly because of poor AI awareness.

I mean they have a product that you can see is very close to being great if it only had a brain (CPU AI)
