NCAA Football 09 Patch 2 Info (Pasta Padre)

I'm not even manually rushing with them. They get in there several times a game, the problem is that the QB can just get rid of the ball, or continue to drop back, before they get to him.

One reason is probably because OU has an all 90 rated D line.


Buuuuuuuuut......

I've played against OU. Kodiak used OU and I used Troy. And my O line was stonewalling him the whole game. I beat him by two touchdowns.

So either you are a lot better than many of us in defensive scheming, or I just have a bad copy. Because I really am getting sick of every D line playing exactly like the other 119 teams in Div 1, regardless of ratings. That's my view.

Well obviously some people would still be unhappy, but most wouldn't be. September? Yeah, that is just really, really pathetic.

actually September is really quick. It takes time to figure out what to patch, implement the patch, test the patch, and then to send it through all of its certifications and for MS/Sony to add online.


So I wouldn't say that having a patch come out around September is pathetic.

I wish my clients were as rationalizing as some of you dudes

I not sure you guys are get enough to not still feel totally cheated. Although I agree with your subjective assessment of the game, objectively its not really broken. They chose to tune the game so that it is exceeding easy to have a lot of success offensively. The game isn't realistic, but it is playable. If you look at the features list in the preview they pretty much did the things the said they were going to do. They didn't say anything about realistic defense or A.I. So while I totally understand why you're pissed, I'm not sure the sliders screw up is enough to get you a refund.

No. We found a bug in the kick coverage. It was a design decision.

This looks like just the gameplay stuff. There is other things in the patch as well. I was supposed to get a list from the Dev manager but he was playing community guys all day Friday and didn't send it out by the time I left at 9 last night.

September may be really fast to get a patch out, but if you release a game with terrible AI and numerous bugs, it's not very fast from the consumer's point of view.

If the game had gotten delayed to September, people would have said it was a big deal, and that's basically what happened here.

It takes a month minimum to get a patch out with minimal stuff. This patch has a bunch of stuff.
