For the new patch to take effect you can't have bypassed the leaving players screen in the FIRST season of your offline dynasty. That's the last I heard. So basically if you are in season two or beyond of your dynasty you will have to restart.

Any chance they'll have this out by Saturday? I really want to start a new dynasty and play along with the real games. And of course I realize nobody actually knows, so its more of a hypotheical, wish-like question.

I don't think so.

"If you are in a Dynasty or Online Dynasty you will not need to restart as long as your Dynasty is still in year one and you have not advanced past “Training Results” in the off-season. If you are before this point, the update will be applied to your existing Dynasty/Online Dynasty and the tendencies will be correct for all players going forward. If you are in year two and beyond, the tendency issue impact will be less and less as the players graduate/are cut from the rosters"

That's from the patch notes in the previous thread announcing the patch. It's the only bullet point that mentions a possible impact on current dynasties. So unless you're referring to another issue that was announced elsewhere, or they have made changes or additions to the patch that will require us to restart that they haven't announced yet, what you said is not true. Only if someone several seasons in doesn't want to wait until all the players with the tendency glitch are graduated or otherwise no longer in the long will it be necessary to restart.

I'm glad I don't have to worry about this anymore. Got rid of my copy. I will definitely wait until after the second patch next year before I buy this. Not a day 1 purchase again.

I am starting to feel this way as well, and I will be buying a used copy so that EA does not get my money.

If you plan on playing online, prepare to still give EA your money.

Uh, at the time those patch notes were released no one knew there was an import glitch on Madden so far as I know, don't think that was what they were referring to. But I could be wrong.

Problem I have is I tested the offline dynasty bypassing the first draft class save and it does give you a second chance. But I'm holding off trashing a 6 season dynasty in hopes they can patch Madden to resolve this so I don't have to. Also, if I recall my frustrated OD attempts, saying 'no' to the first save opportunity in OD killed you as no 2nd chance appeared.

Fingers crossed Madden can be patched to resolve the import bug.
