Madden 09 News Post

I'm back now and wanted to relay some news - we found and fixed the Franchise freezing issue that some have been seeing and decided to delay the patch a couple of days in order to get that in. Major thanks to this community ...a few folks here on OperationSports actually emailed me PS3 Franchise files which allowed us to track the issue down much more quickly. You guys rock - as always!

The patch is now at our internal quality control group, and then on to Sony and Microsoft by (we think) Friday.

We are still targeting about 2-3 weeks from now for the patch to drop, and of course I will keep you updated as things progress.

Ian

no no. it needs to be random. otherwise, you could just jump the snap after 5 seconds on every play.

Don't like the delay in the snap at all, 5 seconds minimum then random after that. I mean I counted and I waited 11 seconds for a frickin field goal - not cool.

I like how players no longer run out now though, big thumbs up to that.

Penalty slider do work, on default I had them on 100 because I followed someones sliders on here, I ended up having 6-7 penalties in the whole match between the 2 teams. Actually got 1 in the last second after a hail mary then got the FG to win the game haha.

Progression is better - still the issue between depth charts and player management screen though..

Like in player management after 1 season Sidney Rice went up to 86 OVR, Wade went down 1 and Allison went up 1. But in depth chart all of them went up and Berrian went up to 91, but was still 85 in the player management screen.

EDIT: Oh and I created a player and he did progress, so happy about that.
to fix the difference in depth chart and player management simply enter edit player change his position then then move it back to normal position it will update your player management screen dont know if the patch will update this so u dont have to but in the meantime it works

so since my thread (since I can plainly see we are talking about this exact question in this thread?) was closed, I'll post my question here. (with a greater chance of getting bashed...)

I just want to get some clarification on what I have been hearing on the EA boards especially this one from an EA rep on a confirmation of the patch tues morning at 5:00am EDT?

http://forums.ea.com/mboards/message...238112#4238112

its the 13th post down in the thread.

I am hearing so much, I just want to know if this is rumor or another wanna-be. And if its already been answered, i would appreachiate and hope in all good will that you can put the link so I can read it instead of bashing. I did search before posting.

hopefully this doesn't get closed either.

the time frame given was from Senior Producer of Madden. He got the time frame from both MS/Sony that 5am EST is the estimated time of arrival.

Dude he told you why it was closed. Chill. There's no need to have multiple threads about the same topic. I see it's only your 9th post but, do a search or join in on a topic before starting another. Don't call out mods on why they closed your thread. Not cool.

Just to clarify, the reason I locked it was because the answer was given by the guy who responded to your thread. The patch is being discussed here, so any further discussion would have to go in here.

Thanks

Just an update on my post from a couple of hours ago where I said I saw no field degradation in my first match..

Well earlier today I had a match on grass in pouring rain and it definitely got worse and muddy as the game went on

I played the Eagles and McNabb went 15/24 .. So far in my 2 games i've seen Robo QB eliminated somewhat. Don't know if it's a coincidence or not.

Still not liking the delay in the snap, especially for punting and kicking. We should probably have the option of setting how long the delay is or they should drop it from 5 seconds to 3.

You guys that already have the patch.... what part of the world are you in?

I live in Australia also and have not received the patch yet. I've been playing madden a fair bit over the weekend and today and I've only had to download a new roster file, but no patch. When or how did you download the patch?
