NCAA Football 12 Title Update #2 Details

[K0ZZ]

I really wish that NCAA developers didn't see Madden as a dream job and EA should've kept them two seperate entities with the only common thing between them being draft classes. College football has huge earning potential that they aren't tapping because of a lack of motivation. Shouldn't take two patches to make a AAA game playable on the level intended from Day 1.

It's without a doubt this is hurting EA's image and hopefully quality control will be more in focus with future titles, we can pretend that the suits are happy, but this type of publicity is killing them.

Pure gold.

I'm sure the NCAA team at EA Tiburon will fix some of these issues, and then create an even worse bug through the patch, then that will be patched two months after it has been created.

It amazes me how they always find a way to screw this game up every year. It's actually pretty impressive.

I understand the marketing strategy of them slowly adding new things that we all know SHOULD be in the game. HOWEVER, when you purposely omit stuff from your product, you should be that much more focused on putting out a working product from day one. Something that doesn't require a patch later on. If they were focused on throwing feature after feature into just one game, then I could understand the possibilities for this many bugs. That is unfortunately not the case.

I really think their "making of NCAA 12" has hurt them more than helped. Those who watched the series, and play the game are most likely COMPLETELY turned off from the way they portrayed their "finished and polished" product. If this year was their grand idea to gain a larger fan base I think they have failed. There's no way that anyone could take them seriously at this point in time. Between the lies about the patch, and the lies during their taping when they talked about how much testing they've done. The bugs in this years version are some of the worst in history. They have a TON of work to do, to get back some of the fanbase for next year.

Yeah, because posting on here and asking with politeness is working so well.

Maybe the only way to get the developers to come out of their caves is to attack.

Is this going to fix the named roster bug

This place has been slurping the devs for years and it's gotten us nowhere.

Unfortunately, that seems to be the case. The people that challenge these these people and demand answers (and we should demand - We have a right to know what's going on and not be kept in the dark) usually get banned and all the EA boot-lickers around here carry on. Sycophancy runs rampant around here.
