You can ONLY get the patch through the in game online connection. You can't get the patch any other way (ie. no e-mailed files, flash drives, etc.). If you don't have an internet connection at your house for the PS3, you'll have to take it to a friend's house. It's worth it though just for the working sliders.

Try going into your Network Settings and make sure the setting for Media Server Connection is "Disabled" then try again. I used to always have that as "Enabled" to connect to my PC in the room, but was always getting kicked offline and it logging my ID on and off three or four times an hour. I called Sony and they advised me to "Disable" it when I am not actually trying to connect to my PC to leave it "Disabled" as default.

I agree. It's either that or the CPU QBs throw the ball so hard to where my gLB cannot get into position to make a play. Either way nothing in that area has changed after the 2nd patch.

Thanks for the advice. This worked. Played a few games with the new patch and the game is amazing. Best next gen football game I've played. Looking forward to the Madden patch and hopefully the DLC. Thanks again!!

Started my dynasty last night and had a really good time post patch. Awesome job! NCAA begins!

# 826 Gatlin01 @ 09/03/08 10:00 PM

Hi, What version number does the patch take the game to? I placed the game into my ps3 and it installed a patch which was version 1.20 about 20meg. Is this the correct version?
Thanks

^^
yes

# 828 noplace @ 09/05/08 10:50 AM

Anyone having more online lag since this patch? It seems the lag is alot worse in my online dynasty now than it was pre-patch. Not sure if this is the issue but just kinda odd it wasnt a real problem before the patch. I have wireless, would it help to run a line directly from my router to the PS3?

Thanks

# 829 dawgs18 @ 09/05/08 12:48 PM

Yes! Pre-patch I was lag free. Post-patch I have been laggy in my OD. Very annoying!!

Also, why did they have to take away the strafe catch? I thought it worked great for both D and O. Now it's just left up to the CPU animation. No human involvement.

I was having a lot of fun with this game. Now it's kinda turned into past versions. Don't know why people complained so much about it and why EA had to mess with it. Patches should fix players leaving early glitch, stats glitches, etc. Not gameplay.

I'm still seeing horrible zone coverage post-patch. I played NCAA 2004 again and realized exactly what good zone coverage looks like and NCAA 2009 is huge step backward from the kind of zone and man coverage we saw 5 freaking years ago in this series.

My biggest gripe is I take the worst team in NCAA 2009 and beat the best team almost every time. In NCAA 2004 when I take the worst team and play the best teams I get pounded almost every time...that's how it should be.

I got just two words for you: sliders.

That's one word lol. Maybe you meant sliders AND Heisman difficulty level.

# 833 Pared @ 09/07/08 04:40 PM

That's a lot more than two words, rudy.

I play on Heisman and sliders aren't the answer. Last gen defensive AI the defenders in zone tend to drift towards receivers. In next gen the defenders are stuck in their zones and unless the receiver is right next to them they don't even know there is a receiver in the area.

# 835 tj1182 @ 09/08/08 01:02 AM

Could a defective roster cause my game to crash after the game is over, during the loading screens? Ever since I installed patch 2 my game freezes frequently, always during the loading screens after the game. Never in-game.

I havent really touched the game much since release, but after the patch i decided to give it another go. It feels alot more complete and while there are still some ******** issues, it plays alot better. I actually found myself FINALLY starting an FSU dynasty.

That's because they can jump 5 yards in any direction from a standstill so they don't have to know where a WR is.

If you are connected to the internet when you pop the game in and the game doesn't prompt you to download the latest patch, it means you have the second patch (I think). If you don't have the second patch the game will automatically prompt you to download it.

# 839 billsjunkie @ 09/11/08 09:22 AM

Or you can look at your game data section in the PS3 section to see if the patch is there.

Completely agree. I rented the game a month ago and returned it, but after hearing some of the positive impressions about the patch, I grabbed it again. It plays a LOT better in every capacity. 2 games in and I finally feel comfortable playing NCAA for the first time in a while, and like you I just started a dynasty.

If someone else gave up on this a month ago, I understand it, but I would definitely recommend giving it another shot now.
