NCAA Football 13 Title Update Arrives July 31, Title Update #2 in Late August

[TastyRambo]

good to see they are finally updating and patching some of the issues in the game but for me it will be too late to even try them out since im trading mine in for madden 13. Safe to say this was a disappointing year imo for EA's ncaa football game. Here's to hoping madden is better.

So what is your suggestion? I'll wait!

Name one game you played in the past three years that was completely perfect on release. No patches needed. Once again, I'll wait!

The truth of the matter is that EA has deadlines to go by. You think they wouldn't want to have everything perfect when they released the game? They do their best to ensure that the game is as playable as can be by release date.

I'm just amazed at how many repeat customers are repeat complainers as well. Complain if they didn't attempt to fix issues. Y'all are hilarious.

I'm starting to just ignore that. Most people seem to love to just complain no matter what. There is a growing number of whiners and haters on OS!

1) It looks like they are trying to drop this patch right before the real season starts.

2) Will it affect current Dynasties or will you have to begin new Dynasties for the changes to take affect?

3) The option is not broken if you go in and edit a few things. I honestly haven't seen the matador DB watch the RB pass by defense since the weekend of the Season Ticket. I also deleted the tuner too though so...


For me, I don't mind waiting it out because I'm just editing rosters right now anyway. It'll prolly take me well into August to finish my project. I'll just keep playing Play Now games while testing the roster edits and playing in an OD League to pass time away.

Also, it is for one my hope...and two my greates fear...that EA doesn't do to this game what it did to Fight Night Champion with all of ther tuners and patches. You fix one thing and break 3. That would really be disasterous!!!

It's a thankless job. They will always have massive detractors because the game doesn't cater to every single one of us in our own "special" way. Seriously, I never read "Bug and Glitches" threads for this very reason; I don't even notice about 75 percent of the bugs and glitches that most others do.

The sad part is this - this developers most likely grew up loving and playing this game, too. Just like us. They want to deliver the best game that they can with the limited resources that they possess. Does anyone actually think it was a developer's idea to axe the ability to import draft classes to Madden?

The problem is these guys have deadlines and a corporate office making their decisions for them. I have voiced complaints over this game as well but I try and leave the development team out of it.

People can and should blame EA for this game's shortcomings... Just leave the developers out of it. I believe they're doing the best they can.

I am not an EA apologist... I guess my standards just aren't that high anymore; this game has always been a blast to me and I always get my money's worth. I'm pumped that we're finally going to get some uniform updates (which is something that the development team has probably wanted for five years but finally got the go-ahead from the big wigs).

Wait a minute... Who is Jason French? I thought Ben Haumiller was lead producer. Was Ben demoted?

If so... That is great news!

Maybe Jason is familiar with "Quality Assurance"
