Re: Madden PATCH UPDATE #2 AVAILABLE TOMMOROW FOR XBOX AND PS3!!

Guys,

Keep in mind that this update is coming two weeks after launch. We don't generally have second update this early and it's mainly for stability items and a few items that we wanted to get in right away. As we stated on Facebook, we're aware of the other issues out there and we're looking into them as well. It's just not part of this update. As always, thanks for the feedback.

I'm glad to get the patch, I am. I just have no idea what is being patched.

What about co-op in CCM?

Surely Josh and the team can restore a core gameplay mode that's been present for 15+ years.

Co-op only gamers, who have been loyal to the Madden series for many years, really want to enjoy Madden 13 so please patch co-op into CCM.

I'm almost certain that this was ruled out. Its a bigger ordeal then you probably think.

Any specifics regarding the "stability" issues? Also, the CPU clock management seemed pretty apparent to me, not sure why that couldn't have been fixed for this patch.

Assuming this patch probably was sent in before the game launched or at the same time.

I was not encouraged by that Facebook post, but I'm holding out hope for significant fixes in this patch. Either way, I'm starting my CCM after I grab it and the updated roster.

Edit: Thanks for clarifying, Dewiel. Makes sense.

Stop pressing down on on the R-stick at the snap of the ball...

Am not a noob at the game. I know that pressing down on the stick makes players play the run. I am not pressing down on the stick.

This is a glitch in the way the A.I defense reacts in the game just like game flow is broken making me go shot gun when I am up and the cpu has no time outs under a minute to go.

Yet it works fine before half time telling me to kneel.

go figure

I think gameflow runs on the same logic of the cpu play calling. Thus, if cpu has poor end of game decisions, gameflow will as well.

there's something about reading posts overreacting to every little thing. I mean there isn't a detailed list and people are jumping to conclusions that certain stuff wont be fixed... obviously there wont be player editing. Oh well, it's really a non issue if the numbers will auto change...

You're also assuming a lot of these items weren't know about before launch. Call me cynical I find it hard to believe auto subs, accelerated clock, zoom camera etc weren't "caught" before release.

We will find out for certain tomorrow.

The main point was to not get any hopes up because any bugs found after the game was out wouldn't be in this title update because the fixes were probably sent in before or during the game launch to the public.

Takes 2 weeks to certify a patch once it's in MS/Sony's hands.

if you're so experienced why use gameflow? I don't know any experienced madden player that uses it. but like someone else said... it's connected to the AI's playcalling which is suspect at best.

I'm just going by history.

Major fixes after the game comes out is usually in a title update in October or November.

I'll be surprised if they deviate from history.

I maybe wrong, we'll see tomorrow, but the patch info that came out today didn't leave me feeling different.

Re: Madden PATCH UPDATE #2 AVAILABLE TOMMOROW FOR XBOX AND PS3!!

Fair enough, I think I saw the 2nd patch for M12 was October 17. I was just thinking with GC's and release playing the game even before us, and the testers at EA, someone should've picked up on the CPU clock management and play calling. I figured it out from the 1st game I played.

Our "game changers" are amazing!

i read last yr that it would only take them 10mins-yes i said 1omins to add player edits to the game so why is this not being taken care of? but they did say that you can bring your own created player into CCM mode wonder if that means you can now use your own created roster???????????????

You could also throw in the inability to save "conventional play calling" in CCM, and the terrible A.I. running regardless of the difficulty. These are issue's that did not pop up right before or after release. I'm fine with player editing being possibly being patched in later as it was made clear that it wouldn't be in this version early on.

I'm not fine with getting 100 XP points for practice in offline CCM when the same practice yields 1,000 XP in Online CCM and they didn't tune it before release.
