Sorry to be an *** but it happens a crap load and it's a pet peeve of mine but it's ridiculous not rediculous. Just a pet peeve nothing against you.

As for the patch, it better be damn good. This is taking forever. There's no excuse for the mistakes they made in the first place, but if this patch makes this game way better than I'll slightly forgive them. If this patch isn't worth the time that I waited for the patch then I'm going to be pretty pissed. Sadly there is really nothing anyone can do about it.

I just tried to replay one of my bowl games in an online dynasty, and I still got the dreaded "Transfer Failed" message.

What a complete let down this game, and the entire process surrounding it, have been.

I will do that. Of my 3 previous OD's we encountered the transfer failed issue in years 5, 1, and 7 so im sure ill be on pins and needles for a while.

I hope they realize the transfer error dint just pop up only for bowl games that in happened during the regular season too.

This is indeed not encouraging.

give it a chance. that tweet was what, just over an hour ago?

how many servers do ya suppose EA has to update, to have a complete roll out?

# 630 stoncold32 @ 09/07/11 02:49 PM

Just to get a reading here....what are we REALLY expecting from this patch?

I get the feeling most of you, and even myself to a degree, that we're expecting this patch to be NCAA 12.5 and that it will make the game almost perfectly playable.

Fact is, very rarely does that happen for any game. CH2K8 comes to mind as a game that tremendously benefited from a patch, but it's never happened in this NCAA series. Thus, I'm not getting my hopes up.

So far, this game is a wste of $60, and I'm just hoping the patch can make it about half that amount.

I traded in NCAA12 yesterday for Madden, and I couldn't be happier. I know I am going to be a little bit disappointed if the patch comes along and the game is great, because I really do love NCAA, but I have been enjoying the hell out of Madden. With a good slider set this game plays great, I'm finally enjoying football on my PS3.

The biggest upgrade for me over NCAA (PS3), is that all the text isn't blurry or 'zoomed', instead it's crisp and clear, it doesn't hurt my eyes to navigate the game and other things that NCAA was doing. I don't know if it was the game, me, or my TV. But Madden doesn't cause a (literal) headache when navigating menus (especially in NCAA trying to recruit for any fair amount of time). Now for PS3 Madden does have some graphical issues, especially field textures, but aside from that I have been having a blast.

Good luck to all of those that have stuck w/ NCAA and I hope EA can deliver a patch that rescues this game I love, I'll rent it when Madden starts to tire out and I expect great things!

So I just returned home, popped in the game, fully expecting to see the banner saying: There is an update for this game - But, alas, nothing happened. If the patch doesn't come out until next Tuesday, that will be the 13th of September, which means the game will have been out 2 months and 1 day before it's even playable and that is taking a massive leap of faith on my part that the patch... AKA: The Blanket, doesn't screw other stuff up as well.

And where are the EA people at? As others have said, they hype their game to death pre- 12 July and then... as if David Copperfield showed up at Tiburon Studios, they all disappear.

It would go such a long way if one of their people would at least stay in contact, let us know what's going, why it's taking so long and on and on. But a company that cannot stand behind it's own product? What kind of message does that send to the consumers of said product?

This... has been a colossal failure for the NCAA team.

Same here.

I'm not sure what EA thinks they fixed, but it wasn't this issue.

Maybe its only for new dynasties going forward. I just restarted mine from scratch so we shall see. It would be nice to not have to speculate as to what they "fixed" but I guess asking that a company give at least some explanations as to their "fixes" would be asking too much.

Other than the tendncy issue, I am fine with the way NCAA plays. Yes, it has problems but I have fun with it. And hopefully something is done for all the freezes.

Maybe they are trying the placebo affect. Keep throwing out the notion that the patch is coming out soon and then hope the game will fix itself and we wont ask about it anymore. I honestly dont know what to think but I will sit and wait... and wait... and wait... and well you know, you get the point.

That's my biggest issue as well. They love to hype the game up before release day and than vanish once issues start showing up. They don't have to stay around and chat with us 24/7, but at least pop in and give us some updates on things and address the issues.

My man you speak the truth in every post I have read from you. This is exactly how I feel. I am grateful that I actually enjoy Madden this year because that game is 100% saving me from totally looking the other way from EA football titles.

# 639 notoriouzwun @ 09/07/11 03:28 PM

My biggest issue to is i cant get in the OD cause it keeps failing at creating schedule. So we can;t continue maybe server update fixed that too.

UPDATE: Well thats a big N-O

I won't. I'm going to wait maybe about another week then sell the game and say the hell with it.
