I know this is a dumb question.But,Im not sure I got the patch.So please answer me this.I went too Game Utility on xmb-Madden file/information,and it says version 1.20,does this mean I got the #2 patch ? I watch t.v. while game loads,And just push -X- for a few seconds too skip intro loading screens.I think I might have downloaded it in the blind. Thanks for the help

also i noticed most of the players who changed weren't impact players at all. and i didn't have any real long injuries and everyones injury went up at least 6 with most being 8

T.O. had in Season 1

206 catches, 4310 yards, 47 TD's

20.9 avg., 269.3 yd per game, 1848 YAC, 8.9 YAC AVG, 10 drops and his longest was 92yds

how in the hell did he not move up or down one point...
Damn, man!

How much do you want TO to progress? would think if he's performing like that, there really should be no further progression. i mean NO ONE has ever had a year close to those numbers. Why would you want him to progress beyond that? That's already a bit too much.

Besides do you realize how old TO is? In real life, you would have to expect his performance to start dropping from here on out. What's he like 34 or something?

When editing a player, their draft status still changes to "Free Agent". Wasn't this supposed to be fixed?

Other than that I'm really liking this patch so far!

well earlier people said 1.20 is the right one. and 1.1 was the first so you should be good.

Ok guys, because it's a big pain in the...ya know...to keep updating 2 threads with my info...please go here...

http://forums.ea.com/mboards/thread....43451&#4243451

I am posting updates and progress as I go. I've succesfully trained 1 team without a freeze error, which to my understanding was one of the biggest problems people were still having.

So, please keep up with the progress as I post it over there. Anything big (such as a big freeze and such), I will post both places. It's just too much work to type this much out, on two boards, AND try to play the game in depth enough to make sure there's no freezing still going on.

Thank You.

i see what you're saying, i was mainly looking for his catching to go up from 89. im mean with 206 catches. i wasnt looking for EVERY attribute. just catching.

if you've experienced freezing in your existing franchise, I would start over. If not haven't had freeze issues pre-patch, I don't see any reason to start over.

And yes, the cpu players running out of bounds has been fixed.

Those are some nice numbers by any standards...one would think worthy of at least a point or two increase in some attribute. Go figure...

"Check it out again"......the turf or your head? No offense meant...had to do it.

I noticed the ambient noise is cranked up a little more post patch. I can really hear the "THUD" of the kickoff now, which i didn't remember hearing before.

The overall weather effect also seems to be increased, not just the field degradation. I notice the splashes more, and the players skin looks very wet and slick now.

I played in Heavy rain, but there were still no puddles, just some of the grass appears to be a little brown in places, but not specifically in the middle of the field where it should be. But overall its not bad, and definitely better than before.

Here is a sweet highlight form my game.. its hard to tell the field degradation tho in it.
Kurt Warner also lit me up 18 for 20

Has anyone tested incoming rookies? Is Tim Tebow still the next coming?
 
# 198 BrandonMUC05 @ 09/23/08 03:31 PM
Downloaded the patch and playing now... So far the game does seem to play even better than before... Playing a franchise game with the Browns against the Cowboys using Heelfan's Sliders...

Romo still is completing pretty much everything but he did that in real life against the Browns in week one. The CPU can run the ball for sure and makes good decisions running the ball as well.

The field does get torn up and you can get see the dirty jerseys as well.

Lots of penalties too.. Holdings, False starts for the most part.

I can try an answer some questions too...
 
# 199 Brandwin @ 09/23/08 03:38 PM
So the field gets torn up even if it's not raining?

yeah, it gets kinda yellowy-brown in the middle. closer to last-gen wear and tear rather than what we saw in madden 07/08.
