NCAA Football 10 News Post

It's unfortunate that a we've allowed a few things to get by onto the disc in NCAA 10, this kind of thing bother us just as much as you guys... We do have time to work on some solutions, and here is the update as promised:
  • Rosters - A new file will be posted on EA locker to start and then we are planning on patching the online rosters.
  • Downloadable Content - The plan is to add the off/on toggle in a patch.
  • Game-play Sliders - Also planned on being in a patch to increase/fix the effectiveness depending on the slider.
It is extremely important to me (and everyone else on the team) to ensure that we get everything right as soon as possible. I wish I could say mistakes don't happen, but they did and we are going to do everything possible to get things right.

Honestly, there should be laws written for people that sell broken software. There are laws for car sales, food sales, etc. There should be something about companies shipping broken or incomplete games.

The European Union thinks so too.

EA would have alot of refunds to give if this ever made it stateside. Especially last year when the sliders were proven to have been broken. Think about it, we are screwed as loyal customers who buy the game at launch. Try taking an open game back. There isn't a place in Michigan that I know that will give refunds on opened software.

This would never hit stateside.

That's because you're smarter than everyone.

I have a question. At what point when your "crew" was working on this game did you guys realize that a lack or refs, lack of anything that will make madden 10 good which was not included in your game ncaa 10 be recognized as good?

really? are you saying I've been getting ripped off the last 10+ years of PC gaming where the patches were mainly for fixing bug/glitches? I want a full refund now!

EA commercials will feature the end screen that'll look similar to this:

"NCAA Football 10*

*Download fixed rosters via EA Sports Locker, patch coming soon to fix sliders!!"

I'm sorry if it seems like I am piling on? But im not sorry for what I say now. This game shows no effort whatsoever for innovation like madden 10 did. We worked with ian to share ideas and somewhat they listened. However i take one week in this forum section and its havoc because there is no progress in the game.

Then just as usual when these issue arise the lead designers are nowhere to be found. The people who boasted that this game would be new and good are all gone. thats what I am talking about. and its sickening.

Just viewed the NCAA 09 Credits out of curiosity. There were nearly 100 QA Testers for that game. Not sure what they were up to this year.
 
# 116 Anti Honor @ 06/20/09 08:33 PM
I think I PMed OMT 5 times about the sliders working this year, and they got screwed up again?

Next year I'll PM him 10 times.

Maybe I'll buy the game then.
