Cosign. And at least Russ and Adam have the balls to come here and admit there's a mistake they're trying to fix.

Russ:

1) When do you have to submit the game to MS/Sony for certification? In other words, is there time for the solution to be part of the retail disc?

2) If it cannot be part of the disc, would a roster patch override the original rosters and therefore become the default roster file? This way the patched rosters would be available for online matchups.

3) If the roster fix indeed turns out to be a patch, when do you think the update would go live? I know a lot of that depends on MS/Sony certification, but at this point would launch day be possible? Would July be possible?

The one thing we know with certainty is that the game isn't going to be delayed.

This is the kind of thing that you have a nightmare about, wake up and in cold sweat, and give a sigh of relief that it was just a dream. It doesn't happen in reality... well I guess it does.

Maybe 5 years from now, someone will give us the declassified version of what really happened with the "NCAA 10 Roster SNAFU"

You know actually, I have no idea what game these are from.

Well the thing with the rosters is some teams clearly didn't get their ratings updated. They changed the way OVR ratings are calculated by putting more stock in certain attributes. That is a nice idea but the roster guy didn't implement it right.

He went and updated those new important categories for the top teams causing their ratings to be at or above their 09 OVRs but certain teams got the shaft. Arkansas DE Adrian Davis was an 86OVR on NCAA 09 but is only a 77OVR in NCAA 10 because he has the SAME EXACT ratings as he had in 09. He didn't get the apparent boost to those "new" more important attributes that the top teams did.

This is the chief problem I have wit the ratings. It shows a complete lack of effort IMO. It is also why certain players who were ranked in the 80s in 09 are now ranked in the 70s (particularly at the DE, CB, and FS/SS position). They made sure to update the ratings of the top teams but the rest of teams were largely untouched. Its as if the new roster guy wasn't told about how the new OVR ratings will be calculated. There is also the issue of missingf freshmen and graduated players present.

Thanks for all the input guys we are looking at all these solutions and more. As soon as we get more infomation we'll pass it along.

i dont think a roster patch is an option. theyre going to have to figure this out between the disc and teambuilder.

a patch or a roster update is a can of worms that theyre not going to open. plus im not even sure if its plausible for ncaa to have a different roster than the default disc roster load up for online play.
