The bug that forced them to rush this out was game breaking to some and not to others.


I was simply commenting on why they rushed this out and not that it was to meet the opening of the NFL season tomorrow as they've never put a patch out that fast.

I haven't commented one way or the other on the affects of this patch as I just got home from work and haven't had much of a chance to peruse through everything.

Greg Robinson is still in the league 8 years on, playing for the texans 67-70 OVR with 7 Pblock and 83 Rblock. Jake Matthews took a dive early on (to the 60's) but came back and now plays for the Chargers with 93PBK. Funny thing happened with my Vikings team though, they didn't allow many sacks in the 1st season, even though progression was set to user and CPU prog was "end of season", the Vikings OLine PBK and RBK went up a few points every few games... but I can't tell if it used experience or not. However, there is a new bug in town... QB and OLine AWR regression... See my newest bug post for details... considering opening up a thread to talk about the very flawed AWR progression for QB and OL http://www.operationsports.com/forum...post2047647672

*sigh* ....

Indeed someone might want to test it.. It could be sim stats, mins played etc. Causing the problems.. Idk.. I don't open the box and sim years in advance looking for deficiencies I just play it out..

So you put it out for people to find more bugs? Problem is I like the game, but don't want to spend 60 bucks playing Play Now

Played a test game in a new CFM and Tom Brady seemed intent on running on me. Had like 14 rushes attempts in the game and my DE's each managed to grab 4 sacks as a result of slow Brady getting stuck on o-linemen.

Anyone else see this? Obviously don't have enough sample size to know if this was a one game glitch or not.

I think you have me confused with someone who works for EA.

I'm not sure that they actually knew what was causing the LT regression, because it seems clear that they didn't fix it. I get the feeling that they will probably just stay silent on the issue and fix it in the next patch 6 weeks from now, but without mentioning in those patch notes that they did so.

I hope that some issues are ameliorated when the new roster comes out, but right now CFM seems like a complete disaster.

I saw this same issue posted a few pages back. Same situation but with Drew Brees. I really hope this isn't happening. I thought the gameplay was really good after the latest tuner. Please tell me the patch didn't mess it up.
