Not a surprise to me it's been that way for years with all EA games.

The only way to fix some game play issues or get a better game is to roll up your sleeves and edit the ratings in all of EA games not just this one.

It's pretty sad that we have to do it every year......

Unfortunately most people don't have the patient for this stuff and EA should hire a group of guys for all their sports games who enjoy and understand ratings.

If you want the CPU to pass out of the post, then run play sets that cloud the post and they will pass out for jumpers. Stop running and gunning and run real playsets and in return the CPU will play as such.

You must have a different game from me.
Like I have stated before if you play a big time team they will shoot 3's but the lesser programs never shoot 3's which is just unrealistic. I played Praire View in my UC dynasty and they shot 3 total 3's the whole game.

The constent turn around jumpers by the cpu on the block. 3. The lack of any AI at the end of games by the cpu. 4. Every game is the same for me in my dynasty. I always fall behind early and have to make a run in the 2nd half. This happens every game! EVERY game the cpu comes out on fire.

This is the first time I have every quoted myself on this board (lol) but I just had too respond myself.
So I decided to switch back to 2k8 I was done with this game for good.
Well after downloading the newest rosters for 2k8 (no one still has a complete set) and deciding to be Purdue in a new dynasty. I put in Purdue's real schedule as close as it would let me and I was off to play.
I played two games and I am done! I dont know what it is but I just cant play 2k8 anymore.
It is like I am playing an old playstation 2 game. I cant really put my finger on it but NCAA 10 is just far better to me. The presentation, the correct schedules, the full rosters done, even the new updates shoes reel me back to this game. The gameplay even tho it bugs me at times (late game AI) is just so much more fun 99% of the time. Like I said I really wanted to ditch this game and go back to 2k8 because of the lack of 3 point shooting in some games. But at the end of the day this game is just so much more fun to play. It feels like I am playing and watching a college bball game plain and simple.

I had to laugh at this. Good stuff. Maybe editing ratings can at least the fix 3 point attempts issue for you. I know the frustration of having a great game and just a few things annoying you.

I don't have this game but I like reading the impressions. I might pick it up cheap for tourney time. I just don't play many basketball games anymore.

While I will disagree with you with the fact that NCAA 10 is far better than CH2k8....I definitely feel your pain. CH2k8 is still fun to me, but I just like the gameplay and especially the player movement in NCAA 10 so much more. But as of now, CH2k8 is all I'm left with. Thank God for an incredibly deep legacy mode in CH2k8. I will just have to get the NCAA 10 gameplay out of my system. But yeah, I definitely feel your pain.

I can understand u jake, there's no way i can back to CH2k8 after Ncaa 10, even with freezes (im not experiencing one yet), is too much more enjoyable game. Im pretty sure dev team after fixing Live would take care at this game aswell, but they need our support.

Haha! I did the same thing! I had a dynasty freeze(first one) in NCAA 10 and popped in 2K8. Great game, more depth and more realistic, but IMO it's just not as much fun and like most 2k games I can't stand the way the players move.

I'm the opposite. I can't stand the way EA players move. I really want to get this game but with some of the latest comments I just can't justify it.
