Even worse...we paid money to be beta testers.

And some poor blokes even paid a premium, drove all night, or paid express shipping just so they could get start beta testing before all the other sheep.

Its really ridiculous. I'm done with it. I slider tested this game for hours only to come to the conclusion that the engine is stale, tired, and broken ontop of the sliders being reversed or broken or having no impact. At least I got the game cheap, but its not the money I'm worried about, I just wanted a decent game to play. I'll maybe check out NCAA 2015 if they get their act together by then and the game is on par with NCAA 2006 for the PS2.

We should make a Facebook page that exposes all the BS and really kick this off.

I really don't mean this as a slam and you can check my post history on this matter.
People keep saying the can't wait for the new systems etc.. but until we get better programming it doesn't matter what systems are out there, future or otherwise. I don't know..maybe the code isn't advanced enough yet..??..??

I've said it for a few years that EA lacks talent these days. No I have no idea how to program games etc.. but I do know this is the lost Gen as far as FB games are concerned as far as ADVANCING the fun and genre.

Since the XBOX we've heard "System isn't capable" excuses. Then we get to the PS3 and 360 and it's still a mess.
I see no reason what so ever to be excited (football wise) about the new systems in the coming years.

Yes I think Madden this year was a decent game and still play it when I have time. However it's just becasue it's had the fewest of issues and not because it was a great step forward.

Hope I'm wrong but until we get some new blood in the mix that isn't afraid to go forward, we will continue to get a work in progress game.

I would have to agree with this. It seems like the innovation just isn't there on EA's part. I don't know if it's due to the cutbacks in staff or the fact that the guys working on the game aren't as passionate (even though they claim it in interviews) about the actual sport as guys that worked on Madden/NCAA in the PS/PS2 days.

I can tolerate NCAA 12 and Madden 12. Neither is my first choice, though, if I only have limited gaming time. I'll go with MLB The Show, NBA 2K and even NHL over the football titles. Back in the day, I would play football games year-round; now, I can barely get through a season without being annoyed or just bored with the game.

After 10 years of playing, I didn't buy NCAA FB this year. Whenever I start to have withdrawal symptoms, I just read this forum and the desire goes away.

Anyone know how to do this? I have some buddies that would join this in a heartbeat.

I think the page should strive to convince EA new leadership is needed for NCAA maybe even Madden football games.

It also needs to highlight the errors and bugs that have plagued the recent releases.

Perhaps promote a return to the innovation seen on last gen.

If anyone knows how to get this started, I'd be more than willing to help. Feel free to PM me.

I am with you brother...I tried and tried and while playbooks help its just no use. I cant get actual football gameplay. I traded this game in already and am now playing BF3

This is me, down to the t. I've had the itch a few times over the last few weeks, and every time I do, I think 'maybe it's not that bad'. I come here and read the patch updates and I decide not to cave in and get it.

I must be the only guy around actually liking this game. I came into the game knowing that with custom conferences, this was the last game I was buying for awhile anyway. I found the game frustrating at first, but now I've adjusted my play to the gameplay. I easily loft passes over super-LBs. I don't run outside all that much, but I do still get good results with outside runs and screen passes.

The tendency glitch doesn't make me bat an eye, and I can't really see what it is that is so terrible about it. I don't know if people are pissed for their own teams or the CPUs, or how it really matters all that much.

My online dynasty is into it's ~12th season (2023, I think), and I love it just as much now as before.

Yeah, there are some annoying glitches, but it's a video game. Every game has its annoying glitches. If you're dying for a perfect football sim, join a team at your school or rec center.

I find this game much more enjoyable than I did 11. I swore off 12 because of how much I disliked 11. But I got sucked into 12 because of Custom Conferences and Coaching Carousel, both of which I'm very happy with.

The only problem I've had with this game is the VERY frustrating transfer failed issue, and EAs lack of thought to give us the ability to save the dynasty/game BEFORE uploading, just in case of failure and that maybe the results could be uploaded later.

Anyway, to each his own, but am having a good time with 12.

Also, I am not happy, necessarily, with the thought of them just saying "Bah, we'll fix it next year" for any glitch, but I AM happy that they realize that sometimes when they try to fix something, they can muck stuff up more by doing it. How many of you complaining that they're not fixing it would be REALLY pissed if they fixed it but jacked other stuff up in the process?

The problem is their programming issues. Come on now, a multi-million dollar corporation that can't even write code and fix it, why are they working there if they can't right coding? That is after all what they get paid for. Its not hard to figure out that if you use the same coding time after time and change it and change it it will develop problems. Any programmer would know that. So, "its too hard" is a poor excuse.
