Had my quick play game freeze up while on the play calling screen when it hit the 2 minute warning...had to restart my 360 to get out of it...

The snap delay is the juice for me in this patch. Why even have defensive adjustments when there is no time to make them?

reboot your modem when you plug the ethernet cable in, should fix the problem

Yup. I too would pay for CPU sliders and accelerated clock.

I just wonder what they were thinking when they took CPU sliders away this year?

does the field degrade better in the snow or no changes there?

pics?

Alright, I successfully simmed through Season #5 with no freezing issues whatsoever. I will start a franchise where I actually start playing through some aspects of the mode, and let you guys know...as I know...of any freezes or errors that I may encounter.

Does it happen even if it's not raining?

Anyone noticing field degradation on turf fields?

there was a guy that was claiming to not see field degradation only to realize he was playing on a turf field. So I don't think it occurs thankfully.

What about my loses from all the glitchers

# 152 Derty PuDge @ 09/23/08 12:34 PM

i finished up my franchise to the offseason of season 1 after getting the patch and nobody who did good actually progressed. Newman had l13 INTS and went down an overall point wtf.

and TO had MONSTER numbers and didn't go up or down in anything.

also i noticed most of the players who changed weren't impact players at all. and i didn't have any real long injuries and everyones injury went up at least 6 with most being 8

T.O. had in Season 1

206 catches, 4310 yards, 47 TD's

20.9 avg., 269.3 yd per game, 1848 YAC, 8.9 YAC AVG, 10 drops and his longest was 92yds

how in the hell did he not move up or down one point...

# 153 vikingsfan1 @ 09/23/08 12:37 PM

I have notice with the new patch that crowd noise volume is increased and it effect the opposing offense. I was playing Panthers vs. Vikings and the crowd noise cause two false starts.

Yeah I finished up a game with the Pats at home and the turf field looked a little worn. Could be in my own head, gotta check it out again.

I Dl the patch this morning before going to work. I went into practice mode for like 5 minutes, so my observation is based on a very limited sample size.

-I notice that Goal Line QB sneak is not as effective as before (when you could net 2 yards guaranteed), especialy when the LB's are blitzing. Can someone confirm this?
-Man on man defense toughened up a bit...or maybe it's placebo effect.
-4 man rush create a bit more pressure than before...placebo effect?

I should've called out sick and stay home and play!

Had you already started this franchise before the patch? If so, then this is probably why you did not see any changes. I read that you would to wait until the following off-season (Year 2 in your case) for the progression/regression changes to take place.

damn because other players progressed. my FB who i NEVER use went up to a 88 overall. it just seemed like the players who actually did big things got the shaft. even before the offseason mode when i simmed threw the playoffs romo went up on his accuracy. but TO never moved.

# 158 Palo20 @ 09/23/08 12:44 PM

Not sure how this worked before, but I'm 2 plays into a game with the Pats. I kick off, James Sanders gets the tackle. First play from srimmage, completed pass and Bruschi and A. Thomas both in on the tackle. I checked the stats because I was curious to see which one of them got the tackle and turns out they both got one. So 2 plays, and my team has 3 tackles.

Has Madden always been giving a tackle to both guys on combined tackles or is this new?

Did you sim this season? Was it a season you played but waited to move into the offseason until the patch came out?

My understanding is, if you were already in a franchise, the progression fix wouldn't work until season 2 offseason.
