Yes to everything I believe with this patch.

I understand the weakness of cover 3, cover 2, and cover 4. I coached them. So telling me to learn how to play defense is laughable.

nothing is wrong with how the safeties play in deep zone, you all need to learn how to play defense like the other guy said.

LOL, one would think that was the case! I've never understood this way of thinking at all. I hope I don't offend anyone but I've always viewed people that do that whole "just have NCAA until Madden is out" philosophy as not really being that big of football fans because the two sports are very, very different.

I don't think that many people do it anyway. One of the EA guys said a couple years ago that the percentage of people that own both Madden and NCAA football is less than 10%. People that prefer the NFL will most likely buy Madden and people that prefer NCAA will get NCAA. A small percent will get and keep both.

Tuning files are limited and were only designed by EA to get around having to release and pay for patches through MS and Sony. EA started the tuning packs with their NHL series and that's where they are used best. From what I've read they release multiple tuning packs which are independent from each other and users can decide which pack to use based on their gameplay desires. The NCAA team hasn't gotten that sophisticated yet. Last year they seemed to use the tuning patch to address progression issues more than anything.

I'm not seeing the 4 verts problem that others are seeing. If they tune this, they'll proabably overdue it and make the deep ball impossible. The NHL tuners were awesome, I could pick which set to use. I hope that's the case with NCAA12. Will I have to use the new tuner set when it drops?

People - all of these game play issues are subjective. EA really needs to work on the issues that are real and hard errors before even considering subjective issues like "it's too easy to pass deep, it's too hard to run, DBs do that too much, LBs don't do that enough" etc etc.

Sliders fix or eliminate a lot of these issues. Also, whose to say your opinion that the game needs patched due to a game play issue is the right one? Maybe others like something you dislike. That doesn't mean it's a bug you know.

This is my thoughts about it, and taking the deep ball away would be worse IMO. The deep ball is a very real part of football, and a lot of deep passes have the WR a good 5 yards behind the DB. I myself just don't see a huge problem with it as long as you don't spam it all game and keep running the same plays..
