Madden NFL 13 Title Update #2 Available Now (Updated to Include Full Details)

Has EA listed an actual log for what the patch does change? Not just the short blurb they had on facebook yesterday?

How do these guys sleep at night?

You liked players tripping over one another at the end of a pileup tackle and falling endlessly with limbs flying around?

I'm glad it's gone.

The first page in this thread directed up to that write-up, yesterday, that's all Steve had.

This. Game released 8.21.2012. Patch released 9.11.2012. Thats 21 days with 14 of those going to Sony/MS approval. This patch was primarily built between the Gold ship date and game release just to fix/tweak minor issues.

Major patch normally comes later after the game has been out 30-60 days then their done until M14.

I thought at launch, they said that this patch would fix star WR dropping so many passes. Didn't they say that? I swear I remember something like that.

If they are in, they are very subtle. As roadman said, you don't see them as much after the play as you used to. There is much more tension IMO. Keep in mind that these physics were what I was trying to accentuate with my slider set.... Something is different

Prey, you know I've been trying to warn folks not to get their hopes up, and yet, after 2 weeks after launch, people feel that all noted bugs should be fixed. Those two weeks = MS/Sony certification.

Yep...but nobody wants to read...or comprehend. This is nothing new.

But the lynch mob mentality persists.

We are all frustrated we have a game that is incomplete. But what else can you do?

I am playing other games. No reason to get worked up over a video game.

No, I didn't but I didn't want to see physics toned down as much as they have been either...
