Wowww really that's your final answer?

How about us online gamers mainly on this site want a good game that we can play and players play like they have some type of awareness. Since we don't have sliders to fall back on. Some people find playing the CPU boring.

EA caters to the online community. You will get your patch.

man, you guys got me kinda scared to go thru with my gamestop purchase.

I just need to know a few things before i purchase......

(PS3 version)

- Are the facemasks on every team really all grey?

- Is the no huddle defensive play call selection issue from the demo still in the game?

- Is playing defense against the CPU worthless? Or is it only online where you can't play good defense?

So far I love this game. I bought it yesterday and started a dynasty as Georgia tech while I waited on rosters. I simmed through most games and just focused on trying to recruit. I love the new recruiting. It's much faster, and harder to dominate the cpu. I played a few games with some very slightly edited sliders on heisman and thought it played very well.

I haven't noticed any problems with too many upsets and national titles being won by 2 or 3 win teams. Both seasons I simmed through there was an undefeated national champion. I just got some rosters and am about to start my Dynasty.

I agree! What rosters are you using by the way? I'm waiting on the official OS roster for the 360 to come out but it would be cool to use something while I wait if possible. For now I'm just doing the 2013 season while I get my sliders perfected (although I think I'm already there) and while I wait on my final roster set.

not sure about the grey facemask question

the no huddle is not as bad as the demo but it still does happen occasionally

I enjoy playing against the cpu, I find with 8 to 9 minute quarters the fatigue starts to set in and it impacts the game in a good way. I also believe you have to be a smart defensive play caller. You have to match up to personnel and pay attention to formations and adjust on the field. That is one are I do not like because it does seem that the CPU quick snaps almost every play.

I don't think all the face masks are grey, but EA did acknowledge that its a bug and it will be fixed. They said "look for something this week."

Question 2 is yes.

In my opinion user vs. cpu with some slider adjustments it is worth playing. I think the line play is good and love played DE. Although I think online players are having a hard time because they can't adjust sliders.

The last part is just my opinion. I would recommend a purchase, but don't hold me responsible if you don't like it.
