NCAA Football 11 Patch #2 Update (EA Sports Blog)

[Rebel10]

Well, Android 2.2 came out for the Droid today ... and so now I'm just waiting on this Tuner release to make my "Nerd Release Week" complete...

OS can ask people to do/say conduct themselves in any manner they wish, it's a pvt site...

As to the political ramifications, I think everyone's better for having OS a place where devs come, even if they don't post interact.

I think a 2nd patch is pretty standard stuff in this day and age, but I know I still feel frustration when the game doesn't work like it should out of the box

Sorry guys, just trying to get this thread back on track.

I'd love to see the patch come out sometime before the release of Madden. Do any of you think this is possible?

Its likely we will get a tuner set by friday and as long as it fixes depth charts and recruit generation im happy

SOunds like the Tuner will be delivered this week, but that the patch itself won't drop until either the day Madden is released or just after. FRom what EA has said, it was a "Couple of weeks," which dated it around mid-August, and frankly, I think that they're more likely to release a patch after Madden's release than before. There's been some significant blowback on Madden from the community, what with it seeming like a "light" upgrade, the animosity towards the strategy pad, and more, and NCAA has generally received great praise, with the exception of the dynasty glitches and the few bugs that need patching... So, if they dropped it BEFORE MAdden it could steal some Madden sales away from people who decided NCAA is the game for them... while dropping it after Madden will keep those impulse buys up, especially with anybody upset with the NCAA bugs.

Just speculation, obviously, but it seems like it'd make more sense to hold release till after Madden drops.

I think that what determines this is what level NCAA/Madden try not to steal each other's thunder. I mean they're made by the same companies , but they ARE competing products for any consumer who only chooses to buy one title

Im sure this has been asked but this thread is quite long. Did they say if they are going to be able to patch to work with existing (especially online) dynasties?
