Agreed. Once again VC drops the ball when it comes to roster updates. They could care less though, they got our money already

Unacceptable. I sure hope that they fix the horrible Defensive Back AI with this update. If they don't they're just wasting our time.

It's just a roster update. They're not giving you a new game.

Foss thats how you feel this is how we feel, everyone is different right. They said we would have the roster update the week the season starts, now we have to wait longer. I agree 100% we should be pissed a bit.

It would be interesting to know if they add the missing player pictures (too many rookies have just that grey 'no picture'). This is the main reason why I still haven't started my 49ers franchise.

And I agree with Fossen, that a roster-update can't fix gameplay issues like to many interceptions.

Well this a roster thread, we should leave the gamplay talk for it's own thread, plus I haven't had any problems with interceptions. All I got to say is stop throwing them.

I dont think anyone is asking for a new game. If the AI problems can be improved through roster or attribute adjustments than why couldn't they do that?

Its already been proven through the various edits out there that the AI does play better with EQ on and now the latest seems to be to increase the consistancy rating.

If VC programmers read these board they should take notes and implement them. Better yet, maybe they should hire some of the "game hackers" on these boards.

The problem is, that the CPU QB throws way to many interceptions. I just quit a game in the middle of the 3rd quarter after Pennington threw his 6th int against my Bears.
I have human coverage @ 0, catching @ 2, persuit @ 8, CPU passing @ 40, int @ 0.
