    I am not upset. Again, I see the issues. I experience them; they frustrate me as well. I'm still playing this game, though. I'm still enjoying it. I think as I've gotten older my available time for gaming has dwindled, I've chosen to not let a game get to me. If I feel I made a mistake in buying a game, I try and trade it in and get something for it. I don't trust patches, I don't trust hype (NCAA is the only game I've bought every year because I've always enjoyed it).

    You know what my biggest gripe with the game is? The same gripe that I had on release day - Washington's home uniforms were wrong and the color of the end zones at Husky Stadium were the wrong color. That's truly the biggest thing that bothers me.

    I used to really hate the sim stats, and the tendency bug would have drove me insane a few short years ago... But, when I just play the game without trying to replicate pieces of real life, I have a blast. The game is my escape from reality, so if my results with the game are a bit unrealistic, that's OK.

    That surprises me, but my perception has changed.

    I've got my money's worth from NCAA 12 - just as I've gotten my money's worth every year from this game.

    Maybe my expectations are low... Well, they're really not because I want the same things that most everyone else wants, but I still find myself turning on my 360 and having a blast with this game.

    That's enough for me I guess.
    Maybe you'd be upset if you're account got locked out of Online Dynasty completely and you get "Transfer Failed" constantly, when that game mode is the one you play the most on the game. Considering I am in that category, I am extremely upset.

        Preach it brother.

        I also enjoy this game a lot. But I also have little time to play it. We have gotten the Transfer Failed screen in our OD, but only once. After that is fixed, this game will hit a sweet spot for me. I truly say thanks EA.

          I traded the game in due to the tendancy bug lik 4 days ago.. after watching college ball on tv tonight, I feel like an idiot because I've already arranged to pick it up again from a guy on craigslist....

          Guess there are more redeeming qualities to the game than a MAJOR (and it bis major) snaffu with the incoming freshman. I personally can't wait to pick it up tomorrow. (Offline player only here)

          I guess it should be noted, that I decided to pick it up used this year simply to deny ea the revenue. So I have it, and someone paid for it, but EA didn't get a dime of my money...

            " I wish they'd tone down the LB's jumping up and swatting passes. You NEVER see this crap happen in real games, but it's common to see 5 or so of these animations in this game... frustrating."


            I said that too... but I gotta admit, sometimes I see it (sometimes...) and I think to myself, "if that happened to me in the game, id be pissed!"

              This thread's first post has to be the funniest thing I've ever read. So, in lamen's terms, they fixed a road to glory bug, a pissy desync bug, and DIDN'T even touch the most glaring issues with the game that make it almost unplayable.

              I wish I could say I'm surprised, but I'm not. Tiburon has to be the worst game development studio in the entire business. Releasing a half finished game, breaking it worse with patches, and then forgoing FIXING it just to make ANOTHER game that your fans will have to spend ANOTHER $60 on is the most unethical, immoral, bull**** thing I've ever seen in the video game industry.

              Blatant disregard for your consumers, just to focus on another version that they'll be forced to buy, is troubling. If the company had any moral fiber about them they'd refund people's games this year. That's what happens in any other business field when you sell people something that doesn't work.

                Its so funny how you guys complain of these so called "super linebackers", it honestly makes me wonder if any of you ever watch a game of pro or college ever. Watch patrick willis highlights, ray lewis, urlacher, those guys are picking the ball out of the air. Does that make them super linebackers too? Or are they cheesing the game irl. So funny.

                      Are they picking a ball out of the air that was intended for a WR 25 yards down the field? Are they picking the ball out of the air without having taken a step, yet some how slid 5 yards in one direction? Are they picking a ball out of the air having had their back to it the whole play and then just happening to KNOW it was thrown and where?

                      (P.S. The answer to these questions is no, always)

                          NMSU 4th SCRUB LB no less...how someone can defend this is unbelievable.

                          The Devs had to use this as a way to make the passing game more difficult. Why not make the passes 'variable' and the quality of a throw based on if the QB is set and with feet planted instead of having every pass spot on perfect from a sprinting HB running to the left, spinning around and making a jumping throw like a LASERBEAM allllllll the way across the field to a WR thats not even looking every time.

                          Yeah, it would take a little more coding but it would be worth it...

                            I completely forgot that MW3 comes out Nov. 8th. No way this piece of garbage gets touched for at least a month, let alone turned on long enough to download an update.

                              make more differentiations in the QB ratings, not blowing up defensive ratings, and using animations that happen 5-7 times in a game that you might be lucky to see once (ie. leaping linebackers). The game is just coded all wrong...
