The Ralph field looks good now. I'm almost afraid to ask but is there a *realistic* amount of rain now? All I've heard so far are reports of no rain.

Never. your football video gaming is at an end. Later.

After playing a few games the crowd noise was really noticeable and accurate to what's happening on the field. My first pre season game with the Lions and I broke one with Best and the crowd was going nuts as he broke into the open.

I think that's what they meant when the audio was tuned. Also, loving the fields now that the graphical issues are gone.

They still haven't fixed the endzones at the Ralph. Still not blue.

I got a nice chuckle from your response.

Very disappointing that the shoulder pad glitch wasn't fixed...why even put that option in the game if it doesn't work? Am I missing something?...that's the only reason I buy both games, I contributed $120 to the madness! Sorry guys...

The special teams blocking is still bad, the replays are still blocked by play call screen and the commentary is still horrendous...

The things that were supposed to be "patched" are not changing the dynamic of the gameplay/presentations...still no immersion

Unfortunately, it's not there. I realize u can use BCAM mode in Franchise and during online games but I am looking to play this mode in Exhibition. If anyone has an answer to get it to work offline in Exhibition it would be greatly appreciated, otherwise I guess I need to start a Franchise. The modes available right now in Exhibition Mode are Super Bowl and Holidays and that's it. Last year after the second patch update EA included Breast Cancer Awareness Month as an extra mode in Exhibition. I am surprised they didn't add it with the recent patch. Oh well, again any help would be great! Thanks. Later

The premise was they would give us randomized draft classes and ensure all draft classes now have real life player photos. They made this addition so eight seasons into the game the majority of players don't have blank player portraits. This was also an addition the community has been asking for.

EA can't help that your imported draft class happened to end up with a black players picture instead of a white guys. If you want to go even further, even it was a white guys picture the guy still wouldn't look like Andrew Luck. Then you would be complaining that all the players you import from NCAA don't look exactly like they do in real life...... Aside from that with college players already having issues over player likeness, can you imagine what would happen if the imported draft class portraits came close to resembling the actual players?
Great point- (applauding)

Hey people. I'm actually love this game this year, I do have my own gripes, but the one thing that has bothered me the most has been the god awful commentary "Mark Herzlich" being called "Mark Ingram", and the NON-Stop Rain in every franchise game I've played. I've recently downloaded the patch, and still have rain in every franchise game I play with the Giants, I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem? or know what I can do if anything to fix this? I do like the fact that they fixed the field issue.

Is there any way that i can get the update without being connected online.. i'm currently deployed in afghan right now and cannot connect my ps3 to the internet.. i was able to get the updated roster from a previous thread on the site. thanks in advance.

I don't think that is possible. Patches need to be installed through the game and a direct link to the internet on your console.

Agreed but they finally got the sun angle right. Until this year the light/shadows came from what would be the north side of Ralph Wilson stadium. Now it's the south (although it wasn't part of this patch).

QB Mallet - Patriots.
Can anyone comment on this?

I've definitely heard Gus Johnson refer to "Timmy" Tebow in my existing franchise (post patch) today.

For some reason it seems extrememly hard to stop the run now...

I know there weren't any changes to gameplay, but, I can't stop the run to save my life now...
 
# 199 docolla @ 10/22/11 09:48 AM
I agree, something changed in the run game after the patch. I thinks it's kinda nice though.
 
# 200 raneman85 @ 10/22/11 12:56 PM
I know this wasn't alleged to be addressed in the patch, but for the first time REs in two games got 2 and 3 sacks while I controlled other defensive players. I still have yet to be sacked by a RE... Started 4 Pittsburgh franchises to test rain. In preseason home game vs Philly and week 1 in Baltimore all 4 franchise games had rain. So maybe certain games are rain programmed. Definitely is less rain in games.
