NCAA Football 09 Patch 2 Info (Pasta Padre)

[rudyjuly2]

I'm really enjoying AA right now. My biggest concern on that level (offline) is the lack of the cpu rushing attack. Once the sliders are fixed I should be able to address that. Fixing the punt returns should make the game fantastic (at least for me)!

I'm more excited about the end of strafe catching (fingers crossed) than anything. There's nothing more frustrating than stopping someone 3 out of 4 times, the fourth time being a 45 yard deep pass where their receiver with 92 spec catch runs around the DB, lines up with the LOS and jumps a full 3 feet in the air to catch the ball, then breaks a tackle and takes it to the house.

I'd like for once, for my knowledge of defensive schemes and how to force an offense into bad decisions to be rewarded. I have a friend who does that strafe/rocket/spec catch stuff whenever he needs a big gain, and his response is the same as the people at the big tourneys "play some D then"

If the strafe catch is gone, then all the people who abuse it will have to learn real football (that or abuse the flats haha).

which aa siders are you using. I am playing on heisman and I am liking everything except I can't stop cpu pass. Its like money.cpu can run, I can run, there is some difficult passing for me although hooks are there to much, and I can get coverage sacks if I cover with safety or lb in zone sometimes. The only problem is 76 to 80% of time when cpu throws it it's complete.

I find this game completely unplayable with the current glitches in the sliders and lack of a pass rush/coverage skills that this game has, both online and offline.

I am still able to enjoy Campus Legend mode as a QB, since I can audible out of the CPUs calls. But as far as a whole package, NCAA 09 has been a big disappointment to me. And I have serious doubts that the patch will improve the game enough to make it a truly great game. Heck, it hasn't even been confirmed yet the the DL pass rush is being improved in the patch. Such a wasted opportunity.

Hoping Adam is taking Sunday off and then ready to get back to the grind on Monday, which involves tolerating our 03480923 questions.

I'm being lazy, avoiding lawn work, reading the board. But I can't answer a lot of this stuff cause I'm not at work and can't ask anyone to get answers I don't know.

Actually, all of next week I'm going to be in day long training... can't wait to see all the posts of people saying I ran away!
