NCAA Football 14 Title Update #2 Available Now - Details Included (360, PS3)

There is a definitive difference in gameplay especially on the pass from this patch. DBs actually are paying better attention (or maybe the WRs aren't just running right past them). I threw a TON more interceptions last night trying to make passes that would have been completed before the patch. This is a GOOD thing as most of them were passes where the DBs *should* be breaking up the pass.

The block shedding is definitely improved as you can now run stop / block shed considerably better.

I don't know yet about cheese plays, but the CPU is no longer calling 1000 read options a game. It appears though that the read option still has the invulnerable QB during the handoff.

I USE DEFAULT SLIDERS though so maybe the reason some of you aren't noticing a difference is because you are using custom sliders that make the changes less obvious.

Now that we "know" what was in the patch and that gameplay wasn't touched are these "improvements" people are talking about just the placebo affect?

Yes. This always happens right after release or right after an update. People see one thing they may not see very often (like a pass interference), then come here to report it must be fixed now, even though there was no mention of it in the notes. It isn't until they play ten more games or so that they realize it was just a coincidence that they were more sensitive to than usual because they are looking for fixes that they hope are there. Give it a few days and the consensus will be that the gameplay is more or less the same.

First, we don't "know" gameplay wasn't touched. EA is notorious for not saying everything they fixed, especially regarding crippling gameplay bugs. They did say "other fixes".

Secondly, while I see your point regarding a placebo effect, I threw six damned picks to effing TROY after the patch. Six. I played about three or four games last night and in total was throwing and getting more picks, seeing a lot more broken up passes, and actually getting coverage sacks.

So I'd argue that while one night is not a huge amount of data compared to the amount of games I've played thus far, I have hard evidence the game is actually better as far as DB play goes.

^^^If I remember correctly from reading the patch notes, it seemed they did make gameplay adjustments but did not care to elaborate on the changes they did make.

We had this issue. I think it has to do with one person having the uniform store thing and the other user not.

You must have not read the part where they said

The title update includes multiple fixes to streamline presentation and performance, as well as the following gameplay improvements and enhancements (among others): http://www.easports.com/ncaa-footbal...caa-14-patch-2

so i think we "know" that both gameplay improvements and enhancements were included, we just don't know exactly what.
