ALMOST??!! I hope that info is correct. The time table we were given is about right. I'm waiting for my repaired 360 to be sent back. It would be great if I got my 360 and patch#2 before the weekend, or during the weekend. I could FINALLY start my Dallas franchise.

What about DLC?

I hope its not coming out on the 360 first with the ps3 version arriving a couple of days/weeks later.

Question along these lines. If we are mid season now, and as long as we don't go past the Super Bowl will the patch work and fix progression for that first season? I.E. We apply the patch before moving on to draft/resigning, etc and then our guys will progress correctly?

It was said elsewhere several times... YES they will progress BUT every player you edited in any way (ratings, equipment) has to be edited and saved again. Otherwise they will not progress.

Thatfore I decided to start my franchise over because I did a lot of rosterchanges which I hardly remember all

Currently after 1 season in franchise if you look at a players ratings in the depth chart some will be different to the player management screens. I mainly notice this in WR and TE. Do you know if that's fixed so the player ratings are the same on every screen? Thanks.

Yeah i get this problem aswell... to make the players ratings match in player management and depth chart you need to go to edit the player, just change his helmet from original to something and then back to original (must remain the same) and then exit (keep without saving) and the rating should match in both profiles. This glitch is most common in wr, fb, te, k, p. im not sure why though?!?!? The rating will always change to the one in depth chart so if he was higher in player management (often the case with k, p and te) they will drop to the depth chart rating, usually 6 points. but if you don't change them they just drop at the end of season anyway thru progression... say they went up 3 points- they would actually drop 3 points on the progression screen cos they went down from 80 to 77 even tho. it's stupid but ea claim to not know of the problem.

Just be sure, players that have been traded and players who I have trained during the season, will still progress, will they?
