Looks like a real bummer, when will they patch it, hopefully it can be done with a tuner, and can they fix it without making the game worse??? Big questions.

So it turns out I have the EA glitch. My body has been an excessive sleeper for the past 3 years and now I don't have the ability to fall asleep... Must have the wrong tendency being used.

Anybody want me to help crack the source code? What silly little piece of code could be in there that equates editing a player to reversing a tendency (not all tendencies) to another case on the roster screen which leads to gameplay issues? EA can solve my thesis while I fix this. I'm trying to think up another test that doesn't involve crazy changes.

In the dev statement about the "Start" screen crash, he mentions tables I believe. Hold on and I'll find it.

Ok here it is -

Explanation - It is a crash that occurs after the Press Start screen and after the connecting to the EA servers pop-up, but before the Main Menu appears. It will appear as if the screen is frozen. If you hit this crash, the only thing you can do is reboot your console. It occurs on both 360 and PS3. I think the crash is caused by some problems with one of the save files. Most users seem to confirm that a roster file is the problem, though some users have reported other files being the problem. It is not any particular roster file that is the problem. Like, it is not some specific downloadable roster causing the crash. It seems like in most cases it is the default, auto-saved roster file which has issues. The problems with the roster file are likely not caused by any intentional changes the user made. Like, the problems are not that someone changed a name a certain way or created a specific type of player. The problems are more severe, like whole database tables being missing from the roster file. That is not something any user can do intentionally.

I'm not sure I understand why they would do that. Unless they know a lot more than they're letting on. If they do, boy that'll be the last time I buy an NCAA game from them...
