Thats too bad, since this game is pretty good, this patch helped a few things. And another is coming in Sept. Considering all patching was not finished untill way later for M10, Im actually pretty pleased.

I am however upset for those that dont like the strategy pad, and were hoping to use the old M10 controls. It seems as though they werent patched in correctly. I just got used to the strat pad, so I dont care either way... but for those who are still stuck using it when they dont want to; I feel bad.

Not true. The notes for this patch clearly state some "game balancing."

Im not sure exactly what was adjusted. (and yes there will be greater adjustments in Sept.)

I feel as though reaction was reduced for the AI in this patch, which is fine... it will just mean adjusting my sliders a bit.

I should have said, "Bigger defensive patch."

Mode? Does that mean its optional? Im probably in the minority but Id rather not be forced to play with this on.

Theres no way it can be avoided? Is it hardwired into the game or is it part of a mode or something that needs to be activated?

It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The NFL has all their players wearing pink towels, pink gloves, etc...... EA is trying to be authentic.

If you play an offline franchise and play your games in the month of October, it will show up.

If that turns you off, then sim October games.
