Just be happy it's getting fixed. If this second patch can fix this, fix the graphical hiccups, introduce dynamic conference prestige and fix the deep coverage than this gamewould be insane. Not to mention EA really has no reason to be testing named rosters since they cannot use them in the final product. Or in any promotional videos.

This is SOOO BACKWARDS!! So 70% of their consumers will use the name feature BUT they should not test that feature??? COME ON GIVE ME A BREAK!

If that is not the most apologetic response I have ever heard. I am in medical sales and bottom line it is purely YOUR responsibility as the manufacture to know your clientele! Then on top of that if your customers have a issue you fix it ASAP. EA will do the fixing part as fast as possible because they know the repercussions this will have. But the major part of this issue is that you can clearly see not enough testing was done when a full blown bug such as this goes gold across the entire nation and is not caught. Yet is caught by your "average joe gamer" in 24 hours.

I understand the response of there is more of us as buyers for certain bugs. But not this one, this is a bug that someone should of recognized at EA. They are professionals, zero excuses on this one. No different than a kicker in the NFL missing a big important game winning kick and getting let go because of lack of faith from the coaches. You are a professional and the leader in sports gaming. Time to step up your game before the coaches (The Consumers) lose faith and cut you from the team (Quit buying your product).

I wonder if this was intruduced in the patch that added the Dynasty roster editing? I wonder if you remove the patch from your game cache and try and recreate the bug if its still there. Something to ponder or test for bored people....

I wish people would drop the dynamic conference prestige demand now. I've done so many tests with my classic setups and independents get serious preference in bowls in my setups. I mean, really, I was coaching 6-6 1* Holy Cross as an independent and got picked to go to a bowl over a 7 win team in a conference WITH HIGHER PRESTIGE. Hell, I saw 3 independents in BCS games in one season last night, although one was Notre Dame. The other two had D prestige (lowest possible and standard for indies) and managed to get ranked high enough.

But if it is something they can fix have at it, but I don't think it even makes a top 5 list of things that need to be looked at.

Been done.

let me humor you this.

for the time being, i'm going to continue playing my dynasty, i have the community roster, obviously named and edited.

lets assume, i continue to make edits, does this progressively worsen the problem as you go along?

then there is this, i don't like the fact of the bug, but i'm going to try to accept it for now.

say 4 years down the road in dynasty is it even going to be a factor?

we are saying teams don't play the way they should in light of what we are to believe the season will look like this year.

4 years down the road will the bug even be affecting anything?

It depends.

Are incoming players just fine unless you edit them? Or are they backwards to begin with.

Are you serious? Look at all the members on these boards using custom named rosters. That says it all!
