Neither have I. What game mode do the freezes usually happen?

The game has frozen in sim mode on me a few times. Very frustrating.

I have more than got my money's worth with this game already, as I'm on holiday and put in my hours - but I'm really looking forward to this patch. I'm pretty frustrated. What is really infuriating me right now is that they keep breaking things they've fixed (passing was great last year, progression was much improved), and then they port in last year's game into this year's version and forget the stuff they've fixed with patches and tuners (e.g. uniform degradation for the team in white, DE's making moves to get pressure, I remember my players jumping in last year's game).

And then there are the glitches that have been there since the game moved to next gen and have just been completely ignored. And it sounds silly to even say it, but the arm build slider being broken STILL after five or so years is really, really getting to me. I can't stand looking at some of the players on my team. You cannot make a beefy HB, SS's ALWAYS have stick arms and there's nothing you can do about it (but I have complete control of his butt size and how thick his feet are), half of my LBers have stick arms, my TE's, my 5* QB is in danger of getting cut b/c he looks so silly and there's nothing I can do about it. I can get to a workaround for gameplay by changing my settings multiple times a game, but there's nothing I can do about the appearance of some of the players. I'm really hoping the patch giving us the ability to edit size gives me a workaround b/c there does seem to be some random 'sweet spots' where you can get a decent look.

I know it is crazy. But the thin arms are what made me turn it off last night and are the reason I'm not playing right now. My #2 recruited class in year 4 of my dynasty looks ridiculous. I went into practice last night and ugh. I cannot play a season looking at these guys.

Come on EA. Please. I'll always buy the game. I've always bought the game. Fix this for me. Pretty please.

Just a guess but I bet it hasn't been submitted yet and it takes about 2 weeks to get it approved. I think the end of the month is a realistic timeframe on when it will be out.

I'm just betting it's then so I don't wonder each week when it's out. End of Aug or early Sept is my guess.

i would have thought that when they finally came out and announced the patch was coming, that it had been submitted at that time.

then i thought is was like a 3 week turn around.

Same here, it's froze on me once in the entire time I've been playing it. (Since launch)

Fairdale Kings rosters and first patch downloaded.

I know when I post this I'm going to jinx it but I haven't had it freeze on me once yet. (gulp)

3 yrs and counting with the skinny arm glitch and I know what you mean because it is a pet peeve of mine as well.. I have noted it in bugs and glitches thread going on a 3 yr stretch now lets hope t gets quietly handled..I truly think it's a trchnical issue..that has to be recoded..

I've seen them announce like this with a list of fixes they have already done but are still doing more then they end up releasing a bigger list of fixes once its actually submitted. If they said the end of the month and with the 2 week approval process they keep telling us about then its probably getting submitted this week.
