Maybe, maybe not. The fact that this was caught a month in advance makes me think that it's not out of the realm of possibility that they could have a patch ready to go on launch date.

Glad to hear that there's going to be an option to disallow the dynasty accelerators in online dynasty.

I'm interested to hear what the final fix ends up being for rosters. I'm sure they'll let us know once substantial progress has been made and there's light at the end of that tunnel.

Hopefully they are close and they can submit it to Microsoft/Sony by next week, then it should be out by the 14th

So I've been browsing through this thread for the first time today and from what I've gathered is that there is an issue with the rosters of all teams containing few, if any freshmen, however there might be a fix in place before the game is released? Nice.

So why is it that I can work a full-time job, spend time with my wife and son, take graduate classes, and still research video game rosters enough to edit and have them pretty accurate within a few month's time, while someone that actually works for EASports, and the job he's paid for is to get rosters accurate for the game, yet he can't get them right? This doesn't make sense.

Even if it is ready, they may wait a while to see if there are any other problems to be fixed. I think they only can do 1-2 patches per game.

I doubt it's as easy as everyone thinks. If it was, we wouldn't have this issue. Also, has it been "confirmed" that "Roster Guy" is only "Roster Guy"? Maybe he has other responsibilities too. Just sayin'

I think you're right. Also, I believe the cost quite a bit to do too. I know, I know, EA has a gajillion-zillion-trillion dollars and that shouldn't matter. Well, when it comes to $$$$$$, it always matters.

He probably helped design Season Showdown as well
