Madden NFL 10 Patch #2 Details Coming Next Week

[bulls23]

Glad games are able to be patched nowadays. What I don't understand is why 2k can get a patch out before EA. NBA 2k is set to be patched end of next week (two weeks after release) while Madden 10 took around six weeks after release to get the first patch.

The only patching they should be doing is to improve online play or things that improve the games performance (lag time/system slow down/loading errors). they SHOULD NOT still be making programming choices at this point in the game's life cycle.

I see what you saying...but you didnt answer my question...

I'll give the game another rental once the patch drops. Maybe ''adaptive ai'' will actually work this time around, and I might even........ lose a game to the CPU.

That's a big maybe the end of next week. It could be a month from now as well.

Also, basketball has 10 players on the court. Football has 22. A bit more complicated than hoops.

I think you are forgetting who the consumer is here. We are the ones that have spent our hard earned money on this game. I should be grateful that I have to wait 2 -3 months to get a decent game??? THEY are lucky we buy their game with all the release day bugs. And if there was an alternative that was better, it wouldn't even be a decision.

I am glad they are releasing a patch, but I wouldn't say I am grateful.

whoa man, calm down and take a chill pill.
