Damn man sorry man, Just be positive. I got to a car wreck when I was 15 years old, and I couldn't move my right leg for 3 month's since it got hit by so much pressure that it broke my ankle and and knee, I also got cut really deep that I almost lost my leg from a infection, but with therapy i got back and had flexibility in my right leg, also watching the kids in my school play baseball after school got me more aggressive to work harder since I love baseball. That's what I get for whining to be in the front seat. lol. So just be positive, and try hard.

would the patch work retroactively for my franchise or would i have to make a new one?

I would think so, but not 100% sure.

Andy, not sure. The franchise is a saved file and I'm guessing that he'd have to start his franchise over again. I don't think the patch, when downloaded will go into a saved file. I think that's how it works, but not totally sure. Anybody know for sure?

I believe it depends if they create the patch with a save file attatched to it. I don't really know what that means but remember reading someone else ask a question about a patch working with a saved franchise and the dev. said it will work becuase they didn't create the patch with a save file attatched to it, or something like that. I think. I probably just added more confusion.

For most games the patch will work anyways, but for certain issues it may require a fresh franchise. I think any sort of gameplay issue would apply either way, but something that fixes the historical stat bug I've heard about would probably need a new franchise.

Not sure, but just a guess from what I've experienced in the past with sports games.

Good to see the developers saying that they would be publishing the contents of the patch. I seem to recall a lot of speculation last year about what exactly had been fixed.

Anyone want to speculate on if this will improve the quality of the online play? ie: lag?
