I thought the roster problem was PS3/360 specific.

I just posted this on my site...

Once the patch is released I will begin working on the rosters from scratch. I've been strongly encouraged to wait until the patch has been released before working on the roster files. That is only because no one is absolutely 100% sure that rosters will continue to work post-patch. I would hate to name 116 teams and encounter a problem where teams begin disappearing again. That is just too much time and effort spent for no reason.

You shouldn't have to. This bug only works with the roster file. Once you start a dynasty, it takes the currently loaded roster and adds it to the dynasty file. So that apparently fixes this bug (though you can't pull the roster OUT of dynasty, so that isn't a workaround... actually a feature some of us want).

However, if you want to use new rosters with your dynasty you will have to restart it. That's just how the game has always worked (see above) and nothing to do with the bug or patch.

We were in the process of compiling a list of issues to patch. And once we figured out this bug and how to fix it, that was put on hold and everyone focused on this one issue. Once this patch is wrapped up, we will go back to working on the other (as well as NCAA 2010).

Will we be able to download your rosters once finished through your EA Locker, or are there problems with that?
