NCAA Football 12 Roster Glitch Confirmed, Patch to Address Concerns

[Cpterp22]

As a huge 2k fan ( For all sports) Those games have many bugs too, but I will say they are quicker to catch things over there. That said.. Even with the bugs. This game is not bad at all..

well hell, what to do, what to do.

had pretty well cleared my friday night to kick in game 3 of my dynasty, and now i don't know what to do......

so let me get this straight:

-the issue was confirmed, today or yesterday that this was a bug
-we have no time frame on a fix
-no clue if the current roster file we are using will be affected by the patch
-roster makes may in fact have to take a newly created roster file and start from scratch
-a patch could take weeks + to create
-xbox takes what 3 weeks to validate a patch

what's everyones plan going forward?

There is some small hope IMO that the rosters may be salvaged due to the following: When you open up Denards player editing menus, he is listed as a scrambler there. So maybe they can patch or tune the game to where the ratings menu and roster menu show whats in the player editing menu...which is still correct when looking at players during edits.

Can we get word from EA on the upcoming patch and needing fresh post-patch roster files or if it will fix current ones????

Heres the thing with EA. All games have issues upon release. Good thing is that they can usually be patched. No issue. The NCAA series always has had some major issues.

Problem with the NCAA series is that a lot of the same things are broken year after year. The same issue shouldnt have to be patched more than once.

Where are the posts/links where EA has acknowledged this issue??

The online gaming gen is to blame. Why do a lot of testing when you can patch issues later after the customer has bascially tested it for you and paying to do it. Someone in this thread hit the nail on the head when they said that the consumer is basically signing up to work for EA when they purchase the game.

This issue I can understand not being caught during testing. But there are some issues that wouldnt make it past 20 minutes of testing and leave you shaking your head.

Looks like I'll start a dynasty with my beloved seminoles using computer generated names. Whenever EA gets this sorted I'll download the roster and probably start another dynasty with a different school. The difference in gameplay thoug with the default rosters is almost unbelievable. Arizona actually executed well timed half back screens and even popped one for a touchdown.

I'm wondering the exact same thing. I might be willing to start one of my dynasties if I knew the recruits would be ok going forward.
