And this is coming from someone who actually despises most of Sony's business practices. So you guys can shift blame to Sony if you like, but this game is unadulterated garbage out of the box. A 60-dollar coaster. It's a situation that 2K created, not Sony.

Can anyone confirm whether the patch fixed online co-op Association where the game results actually save to the season instead of not counting at all?

I asked this earlier but there is no real confirmation from the patch details...I'm on the ps3 but I'm just wanting to know if me and my friend should get our hopes up for starting our online Association when the patch drops or if we should go ahead and trade this one in for something else.

Almost on cue, someone always steps on the soapbox. Hopefully you feel better now, since that had really nothing to do with what he was asking.

So the game is so bad that somehow a patch that takes less than 60secs to download will make it better? Would be nice if people didn't feel the need for overly dramatic claims when trying to make a point. If the game really was as bad as some of you claim I don't know why you'd think a patch would fix it for you.

Personally, I feel the gameplay's amazing post patch. Can't say enough about the improved contact and the animations overall. Playing on all default Pro (down from All Star) - loving it

Actually, I acknowledged that fact by saying "maybe for the delay of the patch."

And brother, you're projecting. I really don't need the validation of a soapbox rant. I was simply offing my 2 cents in a discussion on a discussion board. Frankly, if you don't disagree, you really didn't have to have a reaction. If you do, you've failed to mention why. Which leads me to believe that I'm not the one who enjoys the soapbox.

Well, in answer to your question, I play Association almost exclusively. If players don't progress (and this is only one example of the problems here), Association mode turns into season mode because there's no point in scouting prospects or moving on in years. I don't feel like anything I said was overly dramatic; there was a problem here for me.

Whether or not it was a problem for you is immaterial.

The board doesn't need rants, period. As you said, it's a discussion board, not a rant board.

With the direction the conversation we were having headed, your post added absolutely nothing. I understand his frustration but pointing out how the patch is now in Sony's hands has zero to do with how you feel.

If all you have to contribute in a "patch impressions thread" is a rant, you should stop hitting reply.

Amen brother.
