NCAA Football 11 Patch #3 Coming Soon, Possibly This Week

[fistofrage]

I wouldn't count on seeing this patch before next Tuesday and with the holiday thrown in, perhaps later than that.

Its a bit disappointing that college football kicks off tonight and we really can't start dynasties yet because there will be hours of testing that need to be done after this patch drops.

Anyway, take your time EA and make sure you patch up what's broken and don't tinker with anything that's waorking. And restore the passing game back to where it was at launch.

I'm sure with the QBs at WR, that HAD to nueter the CPU passing game.

I'm sure that it gave me some advantage, but I've seen it once in 60+ games and they were on the depth chart because the team was all D- crap team and those QBs actually had a higher overall rating at that position than the WRs. So, in effect, they may have actually been better than the CPU WRs at that position, but it's just not something you'd really ever see in real life. It was caused by incredibly low receiver ratings and relatively high QB ratings.

The other depth chart issues are more annoying especially with offensive line and linebacker positions, but that was the most noteable because it was bizarre.

Yeah I was just thinking that if it doesn't come out tonight it probably won't come out until late next week b/c of the holiday.

You guys need to relax and just have fun with the game.
Even before the upcoming patch this is a great game. Again have fun with it, it is a video game. Are there issues with this game??? Yes for sure there is. But it is still the greatest next gen football game IMO.

Its a decent football game. They need to put the passing game back to where it was, fix zone coverage, and shore up the problems with dynasty.

For anyone who likes to compare stats year over, its really pointless to start a dynasty until a set of sliders is settled on. I can play some play now games, and enjoy those for what they are, but investing the time in a dynasty isn't worth it until the final version of the game is complete and the final version doesn't have glaring flaws.

is anyone else worried that the only thing of substance in this patch will be the pump fake glitch?

i say this simply given the timelines of the 2nd patch release, the uproar of the pump fake glitch and then add 3 weeks for ms/sony testing/certification.

it seems they didnt really have any time to work on this patch if its already coming out this week.

I am concerned about this. Hopefully we have some other small fixes...
