I don't have high expectations for the patch either. But Sony and MS usually takes 1-2 weeks to certify the patch not three depending on the size and other variables.

It would seem to reason that that is all they will really address. It's hard to say though.

I want them to just put pass accuracy back to where it was at launch. It was fine there. Stop the 60-70 yard fg attempts on heisman. If they fix zone coverage too it will be a bonus.

I have the game playing fairly decent otherwise.

I'm hoping for

- CPU Depth Chart Fix
- Slightly tone down the accuracy of QBs
- Make the defense play much better zone coverage
- Increase the effectiveness of the "knockdown" button on defense
- No more 60 yard field goal attempts by the CPU
- And of course, the pump fake glitch (even though I couldn't care less since I don't play online and don't have to worry about either the AI or me using this).

If it helps anybody's high hopes, some of the things we're wanting are probably tuneable, so this patch may not be the last chance to fix some issues. Just looking at the above list I would guess that all of these could be tuned and may not require a patch:

- Slightly tone down the accuracy of QBs
- Make the defense play much better zone coverage
- Increase the effectiveness of the "knockdown" button on defense
- No more 60 yard field goal attempts by the CPU

Love this list but would add 3 more

- a little more tweaking (aka improving) the incoming recruit ratings.
- punt and kick return blocking
- make the run block and run defense sliders more effective so we can get a cpu run game on AA (i still dont understand what the heck they did to AA running)

one more...

WR rarely drop passes after being hit... this is extremely unrealistic. FIU WR not dropping a pass when they are being hit right in their ribs..

before patch 2, this was perfectly done.

I noticed this too!!! I completely agree. For some reason I'm thinking they did this on purpose for patch 2?!? Idk why they would though...

I hope they fix scheduling, i got screwed out of a bowl game my first year in my SJSU dynasty, because Boise and Nevada didnt play and its annoying playing with pac 10 teams because its every 3rd year you play away. When they rotate every year.

Like i have said before I had a 10 year dynasty with oregon st and never saw the depth chart issue with the cpu and now in my 6 year with SJSU and havent seen it yet.

I would love to see zone coverage fixed, im sick of guys just literally sitting in their zone when there is a player in their area and they dont move.

I also havent had a problem on AA with the cpu stopping the run. I do run for a lot of yards but i run a lot. Especially this year with my SJSU team i have my best RB and going to be a better passing team because the CPU defenses are gearing up to stop the run and forcing my frosh QB to beat them... which has so far.

I would like to see a fix on the CPU blitzing a ton. I just destroyed USC because they were gearing up for the run and kept CB blitzing and i was able to audible out and quick pass because they also had the safety on that side blitzing too! after he caught 2 td's i would expect them to start dropping into zones... nope they kept blitzing. That needs to be fixed.

Also a little thing that i would love is for the new pac 10 logo to make it in. All teams will have them on their jerseys and they maybe on the fields too. Im not sure about that yet
