Honestly I am enjoying the game a lot in it's current incarnation, I don't see why so many act as if the patch is needed to make the game "playable" or whatnot.

Don't try to figure it out--I've given up a long time ago .

The same people that are vehemently requesting the patch will be the same ones still saying the game is broken once it's released. I've said a few times already; if you don't already halfway enjoy this game, I can't see a couple (while important) fixes changing your entire outlook. For some of us, the game is already solid. The fixes just make it that much better.

For Franchise people of whom reasonable statistical accuracy is just as much a part of the game as the play on the field, the game is not solid. That's one reason why multiple posts exist of people saying they're waiting on this to start playing.

If you believe the game is "solid", more power to you.

3rd party means it is in FINAL QA at Sony/MS. EA is the first party since it's their game.

Hey smart guy, you DO realize that EA's game is a 3rd party game, RIGHT?

[pointNumberOne]

My take:

1.) Microsoft is the first party
2.) EA is a 3rd party developer for xbox/ps
3.) Their game would be in MS's 'final 3rd party approvals'

...but what do i know... *shrug*

Ian also 'tweeted' that their putting together the final list of what's in the patch for a blog post. That list would tide me over for a couple days

I hope it comes before X-Mas!
