    Commentary is almost always much too big of a change to make in a patch IE its a M13 type of thing, but I hope I'm wrong.

    Rain, UDFA, editing, simmed stats, CPU logic ... if they fix these things this game will be a must have.

    Especially considering franchise was the "big deal" this year, it would be a shame if it doesn't end up polished.

      - commentary
      - custom playbooks
      - rain in franchise mode
      - effectiveness of QB sneaks
      - zone coverage not abandoning zone fast enough to chase QB
      - remove money plays
      - fix penalties, so they work properly and realistically

      Not too bad compared to other years IMO.
      Have an awesome day!!

        Unless they completely forgot to include the audio files in the original build, then there's no reason that commentary is "too big" to patch. The only reason audio patches would be big is if they needed to upload new audio content into the game.

        It's fairly obvious from the bugs that exist within the commentary that the problem is somewhere in the logic of matching situations with audio clips in the database. This is exactly the kind of thing that should be fixed via patches and there's no excuse to leave it ignored unless they need to upload hundreds of MB's of audio.

          Something I've always wondered, if I already have a franchise file, would a patch fix the problems (ie weather, losing roles when editing etc) in my current franchise or would I need to start a new one?

            Thats kind of my hope, I'm not going to say the commentary is great because its not.. But at least addressing the issue of certain players names not being called or called by the wrong game would be nice. I believe their audio files are in the game (Mark Ingram for EX) they are just mismatched.

            As far as game-play I can live with it for the most part. I would like them to address A.I. issues in terms of franchise mode. Like the UDFA issue and the CPU draft logic, not filling its roster competitively. Fixing the issue with the Field graphics for the PS3 would also be nice. Oh, and being able to edit players fully(Height,Weight, Skin color) without losing their player roles.

              Patches will take effect in your current franchise. No need to start a new one unless you want to.

                More than likely have to restart, not 100% but thats been my experience. Even if they say you don't I still would because more than likely they didn't test the patch thoroughly (M12).

                  "The Audio pop" must be addressed.

                    Well, if you want a lot of int's, keep the int slider at 50 and lower the pass reaction sliders by a great deal.

                    This will help with the leaping LB's and mirrors of DB's.

                      The fix I'm looking for is the "unable to advance" one. Seems to be tied into injuries and IR.

                          In coach mode, I would like the human-controlled QB to scramble on his own in appropriate situations. Right now you have to take manual control to make him run.

                            Word. All of the new "additions" like the preseason "mattering" and trading picks in the draft have either turned out to not work or actually make franchise less enjoyable than last year. If this stuff isn't fixed, I'm going to just have NCAA if I need a football fix, and look towards trading in to get NBA 2K or Battlefield later on (guess EA gets my money anyways )

                              About to go into my second one, turned injuries off due to it creeping up because the Panthers had too many.
