NCAA Football 10 Rosters Issue

[ramrod580]

I have a great idea! Lets keep insulting the developers so they stop posting here. We even attack them about parts of the game they have nothing to do with.

Look, we get it, many of you hate this game. So I have a great idea. Tell the designers what you don't like in a respectful way, don't buy the game and quit hijacking all the threads. If you hate the game so much why are you even here, go do something you enjoy.

I just want to say thanks to all the EA guys for coming here and talking to us.

Is NCAA 10 bad? It doesn't matter, it doesn't give you the right to be mean to someone because of a video game. Grow UP!

To me, this is just a continuation of the hilarity this franchise has become. I used to love it and bought it every year since Year 1. Since the new consoles came out, it has become a laughingstock. The first year was a complete abortion. '09 was okay but not terribly exciting or groundbreaking.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I am buying Madden this year. It just seems like they have all of the big brains on that side of the house. I still hold out a sliver of hope that they rescue this dog.

1- I agree with you about how we need to be respectful and quit hijacking threads
2-But... if the developers can't handle the intense criticism, then maybe the should consider developing a nice game like Viva Pinata where they won't get their feelings hurt.

I'm sure they can deal with people being "mean" to them over the internet... They probably won't lose sleep.. and if history has shown us anything, it's that they don't even listen to us half the time anyway

Oh, I love NCAA. I will buy it and play it because it is a great game. I am very grateful that the developers have taken the time to give us the game as it is and come on here to talk to us, but I do understand this is a business.

I'm a marketing major and realize that customer satisfaction is very important. If the developers read this and realize that some of the bugs just aren't acceptable to the fans, then maybe something will change. As customers we do have the right to voice our opinions and be "mean" over a video game. We are the ones paying $60 for it, after all. Kissing the developers butts won't get us anywhere.

Let me repeat, I will buy this game and enjoy it, but all of these screw ups have been pretty discouraging and a lot of the traditional NCAA fans are losing interest in a product that isn't at its best.

I'm sorry for apparently hijacking the thread, I am just being honest.

I have nothing against telling the developer what they did wrong. That should be the reason they came here in the first place, to improve their game.

I just think it is horrible how people treat each other. These are real people with families and feelings. Just because it is over the internet doesn't make it right. Can they take it, I'm sure they can, but it doesn't make it any less childish.

guess that makes me childish for being outraged that I have to pay $60 for this game...

I am really sorry if you think I was attacking you. I wasn't refering to one post Being honest in a respectful way is in no way hijacking a thread.

I am not calling anyone childish, just some of the responses. If the roster thing bothers you that bad, I agree, don't buy the game. There are just multiple ways to show this outrage. Some do it the right way and some don't.
