NCAA Football 10 - Current Plans

05:57 PM - June 18, 2009 by Russell_Kiniry_EA

It's unfortunate that a we've allowed a few things to get by onto the disc in NCAA 10, this kind of thing bother us just as much as you guys... We do have time to work on some solutions, and here is the update as promised:

Rosters - A new file will be posted on EA locker to start and then we are planning on patching the online rosters.
Downloadable Content - The plan is to add the off/on toggle in a patch.
Game-play Sliders - Also planned on being in a patch to increase/fix the effectiveness depending on the slider.

It is extremely important to me (and everyone else on the team) to ensure that we get everything right as soon as possible. I wish I could say mistakes don't happen, but they did and we are going to do everything possible to get things right.

Well whataya know, something half done. Where have we heard that before?

And how will those sliders work online.

Good news.

But people giving thanks are going too far. It was supposed to be fixed and it was hyped up as so. This is their job.

"Hey can I get a double cheeseburger?"
"Uh yeah, here's the bottom bun and one patty...we'll get the rest of it out to you in a day or two."
"Oh cool! Thanks, really means a lot to me. Thanks for keeping me informed. Sounds good."

I really just don't get how you can ship a game two consecutive years w/ broken sliders...it truly is beyond me.

Mine and the CPU QB sliders are set to 25 and they definitely throw errant passes. If CPU run block is at 45, they CANNOT run. If I set it to 50, CPUs run game is good. I think its more of how sensitive they are, because they DO work. I'm not imagining that ****. I dont get it.

Sliders were broken in the shipped version of the game. (i.e. didn't work and sometimes even worked the opposite way they were supposed to)

However, it was somewhat fixed by a patch.

Good customer service. Depending on the patch's success, you may have secured yourself another $60.

# 68 Boulton26 @ 06/19/09 12:27 AM

If indeed the sliders fix the defensive line's ability to penetrate the offensive line and flush out the QB and create lanes for linebackers, I'll be forking over the $59.99. But until I hear reviews from some of the great members here at OS, I won't be buying it.

Yes! Please, Russ! Realize this! Slider effectiveness/sensitivity is KEY!

I think I speak for everyone when I say, "WTF HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN DOING FOR THE LAST 11 MONTHS?!"

# 71 gogators @ 06/19/09 01:23 AM

I cannot believe I am saying this. I am going to cancel my preorder for the 360 version of NCAA and now buy the new Wii Sports.

I should never say I would buy ANY game over NCAA, but enough is enough. This game has failed since the move to this current gen and I have not had fun with it since then. It's a couple of big things and the absurd amount of little things that add up that make the current build of NCAA just unplayable.

If the sliders get fixed and everyone on this board praises it then I'll get it, but I'm tired of wasting $60 and not having any kind of fun with this series anymore. I want my game back!!!

Can we get Coke or Honda or some company to sponsor the sliders? Maybe then they'd actually work right out of the box.

Sorry... I was going to buy the game on release, even with the still-broken pass rush. But non-working sliders? Still? I'll wait this year and see if the patch actually works.

# 74 AnybodyKilla @ 06/19/09 02:07 AM

I still cannot believe my favorite game of all time has fallen so bad

.

Atleast you guys losing my money went towards my FNR4 preorder :\.

This sucks, if this was pretty much any other game I could move on but this is my beloved NCAA franchise, I LOVE this franchise..ugh..Terrible

# 75 Sublime12089 @ 06/19/09 02:24 AM

Would it be possible to get a spreadsheet of the new rosters?

exaclty, there should be no sliders setting at 0 or 100...
Hope a few clicks makes things noticable on the field.

Clearly, NCAA Football (and the fans/community) isn't nearly as important to you as Madden is to their dev team. I'm extremely disappointed already. For everyone buying Madden this year, I'd suggest "renting" NCAA from Gamestop. By that I mean: Buy it for $60, play it for a month (if you can deal with it that long), then trade it in for $40 towards the purchase of Madden 10.

telling everyone to buy the game is the wrong thing. Like I said, EA doesnt care if you buy the game and throw it out the window on your way home. Once you've bought it theyh got paid. They dont care if you keep it for one month or for the next year. Trading it in is only between you and the store...EA could care less. 1 million people could buy this game, and trade it in b/c its terrible, and it would be considered a success to EA

QFT. Its amazing people don't understand this concept..

If you buy the game new... the profits go to EA...Buy it used, they get nothing.
