While the thought is kind of funny, I would opt for a way to mail in something pointing out the gameplay flaws. While the bugs are important, the core of any sports game is the gameplay and NCAA has some major holes that never get addressed because bells and whistles sell, not gameplay.

Perhaps someone could package up game film and send that in.

I haven't checked lately, but do you suppose Hallmark has made the "It's time to bring gameplay logic and programming to the 21st centry" card?

Everyone likes cards don't they?

I just bought a used copy of FIFA 11 for $15 off of Amazon.

I shall play the heck out of it until this patch comes out.

I can play this game and enjoy it, but I don't want to start a dynasty until the patch comes out.

I just called a rep at EA about the fact that the "server side fixes" for OD's are not fixed. He said my roster file may be corrupt. I dont really know how I would know if my file is corrupt, but I am going to sim through a dynasty with out rosters and see if I can advance past bowl season. Ill keep you guys posted.

Recurring theme, its anything and everything but their coding, scripting, and design.

If EA doesn't come out with a patch within the next week, they should pay us our money back for their broken game. It's unbelieveable, and totally unacceptable. EA has kept everything quiet and given us no notice or inside information on what the heck is going on. They have been very vague with their information. On top of that, they said via Twitter that they have fixed the bowl game reporting bug, when they have not. I'm just tired of this. And there's nothing we can do besides return the game. That'll show them

A simple visual lesson...

Broken:

Not broken and still quite enjoyable to the masses:

Yeah, OK. I'll get right on that...

How the hell do people here not consider a game broken when it won't even LOAD past certain screens, EVER!!!! Just because you have not encountered the problem does not mean that it does not exist. You are delusional if you think this game is functional when a person puts the disk in, loads up the game, and it freezes on the same screen every time.

Ever play the game? It is almost literally unplayable.

This I cannot disagree with.

i actually think you should get on this. it sounds like a solid plan in theory, definitely sends a message. however it might be to late in the cycle, that patch could drop anytime at this point.

at any rate, the ea server speeds and stability are looking to be fantastic coming up next week. everyone quitting ea, turning in, and/or burning their game copy.

this looks to be very exciting and promising for us playing our OD.

So I just simmed to bowl season, played, and got transfer failed. And this was with default unamed rosters. This game is an absolute joke and so are the people that make it/represent it. I'm done

Yes. I now cannot get past the first loading screen after "press start". Haven't had a problem until I played my first online match last night. It froze on the autosave after the game. Rebooted, now this. I've tried at least 5 times in a row. Every time a freeze. Ridiculous

Same here. It's time to change your slogan EA: "Transfer failed; It's in the game!" sounds about right.

# 817 stoncold32 @ 09/08/11 01:16 PM

Can you believe EA first blogged about this patch on August 2nd?

And yet we STILL don't have it 5 weeks later.

# 818 bucknut7 @ 09/08/11 01:19 PM

Can you believe that EA tweeted that they had fixed a problem, yet it is clearly still broken! This is a fun game

# 819 awill25 @ 09/08/11 01:22 PM

Anyone defending this company at this point needs to:

1) Go kick rocks.

2) Please ask your superior when the patch will drop, because you obviously work for them.

I'll just keep on enjoying the game, thanks.
