NCAA Football 11 Patch #3 and Live Tuning Pack 3 Available, Impressions Here (PS3)

[SFNiners816]

I am in year 6 of my FSU dynasty on the PS3. After my first game post patch/tuner, I had my Fr QB awareness got up "+ 1". So it looks like the patch does indeed work with in-progress dynasties.

Thanks for the info, Did you happen to see how much awareness increased for players in off season training?

Awesome. Just need the 360 update now.

I didn't notice awareness, I just looked at the overall changes. The whole team went up anywhere from a +2 to a +5

That's because he used Notre Dame. I was under the impression that they were raising the lower end of the recruit ratings meaning that the 1* and 2* recruits were going to come in better so there would be any low 50s being recruited at all/as much.

Hmm. Maybe you have to play the games to receive progression. Is that what you did? I started a new dynasty and simulated only to get no progression.

Another dude in my OD also played and he was getting stuffed in the run as well so we're probably going to have to up the blocking for those.

You should probably just lower CPU Run Defense since that was patched this time to make it affect actual blocking and not just the success of the special blocking moves.

PS3 - Running is better on both sides, cpu can run the ball, and they can actually stop Demarco Murray, no more 10-20 ypc. The in season progression is there and working, but it depends on player performance in the last game, played or simmed, so it's quite possible to go a stretch without seeing any change.

I was worried about the changes to man coverage, especially with zone not really working, but coverage was awesome on both sides, even zone coverage seemed alot better. Seems like the change to the early jump by pass coverage actually makes it so the cpu times the pass better. I was really having to look for that open reciever, and would be tackled immediately after the catch. Going to have to adjust the cpu passing/hum pass defense, as they haven't been able to complete more than 40 something %.
