NCAA Football 12 Roster Glitch Confirmed, Patch to Address Concerns

[xcef2005]

Just did a very quick 8 game sim because I didn't want to believe that this glitch would effect me and I'm really not sure what to make out of them in till I try a 8 game sim with nameless rosters. Here's just a few QB rushing stats I got though:

Robinson: 83 rushes - 587 yards
John Brantley: 54 rushes - 108 yards
Dayne Crist: 30 rushes - 60 yards

Now I looked at John Brantley on ESPN through 8 games of the season and he had 39 rushes. Dayne Crist on the other hand had about 55 rushes through 8 games in real life. I'm not sure what what Brantley/Crist were rated before names or after for that matter but just thought I'd pass on my quick finding as I thought Robinson having 30-50 rushes more then everyone else was alright with me.

People will stop buying it the game if EA continues to pull this nonsense. I didnt buy it this year. Didnt buy Madden last year either. Tired of the same rhetoric from the dev teams with marginal improvements followed by glitchy issues. The PS2 days had their issues for sure, but the game was more robust and complete. The stripping of features only to add them back at 75% capacity while breaking other stuff is infuriating.

I get that OS has zero to do with the development of the game and that people are just voicing their frustrations. Its just a shame that with the cycle they have that more time is spent on rushing features in as opposed to fixing the issues that are present. We've all mentioned it at some point but maybe EA is better off going to a 2 years cycle with a roster update in the middle. This one year cycle with buggy issues everywhere cant keep happening.

It effects every position. For instance your speed backs are normally smaller backs who don't break a lot of tackles. The speed tendency logic tells that back to juke, spin, do anything to avoid tackles. When you take that 5'9'' 179lb back and give him the balanced logic he will at times try to run over much bigger line backers instead of juking them.

Your balance DB now thinks he is a big hitter so he will try to make a big hit instead of intercepting an easy pick.

Remember than tendency trigers certain AI logic.... so the logic is off for 2/3 of the roster. I am wondering if there is not something to the theory that the madden player tendencies are what caused this. It makes sense because what that feature does is allow you to do what the tendencies on this game do automatically. It allows you to adjust the logic where on this game that logic is adjusted for you.

Just a small gripe about the player edit that I have never heard anyone talk about before. The screen is WAY TOO DARK. It would be so much easier if the players were standing on a mock field or something. They haven't changed this screen in I don't know how long.

If that is true let's hope it doesn't happen in Madden if you edit a player there too.

You can bet your bottom dollar this will be one of the first things tested by guys when that game comes out.

Ok to help people out who are doing the work around for QBs.

To change a pocket passer to balance, you have to make them a scrambler.

From balance to scrambler, you have to change them to balance.
