Seems my rosters are still messed up. After goiung through the steps of dling patch, deleting roster, deleting patch, re-downloading patch then re-downloading roster Denard Robinson is still balanced QB, but when I go to skills he's listed as Scrambler. I'm using CK11's rosters.

Wrong order, you need to have the roster before the patch.

I have no freezing problems pre or post patch. Every now and then, I'll get an online game that loses connection, but that's it. Never a freeze in game against the computer.

Are yalls discs scratched up?

My rosters are taking longer to load after I exit the online menu when someone leaves the match room...a good 15 seconds probably.

I haven't really noticed any major fixes with this patch though. Some minor things have been changed, but for the most part, I think they made what they were trying to fix worse in a lot of cases (custom play books are worse, the no huddle thing is REALLY bothersome). Can someone point out specific game play changes that were made. It doesn't seem that different to me.

Noticed last night that custom playbooks aren't loaded up in practice mode within the OD. It will show that it is loading up but once you are on the field the teams playbook shows up instead. In my case it was Penn St. playbook instead my custom book that I made. Before the patch I could use the custom playbook in practice mode.

Everyone complaining about custom playbooks.. Just run the plays those teams run !!!! What is your problem you are NOT Bill Walsh or Bill Belichick. YOUR NOBODY.. Respect COACHES who ARE SOMEBODY. AND the dude before got it right... COPY your game to your HDD. Make space for it or by a new one. This game has always made some xbox s freeze and others perform alright. (it depends on hardware issues and when your x box was made how many system updates... Some of them have issues with ea sports games I have 3 ... 360s only one will play this game properly. BUT most of your freezes are due to the EA servers.. and like I stated the basic in ability for a 2005 xbox 360 to operate the way these new games are made is not really even the same platform anymore. People blame EA when they dont realize XBOX s always freeze they have major hardware issues .. the reason mine does not is all that **** has been dealt with .

It froze on me twice today, I had only had it freeze once before the patch. The first today was trying to update a TB team, the 2nd was in a game (Clemson vs Wofford) with about 3:00 left in the game I hit pause right as a computer generated replay was coming on the screen and it froze.

i can't load any of my offline dynasty games this morning. Not sure if its patch related but never had the problem before the patch.

To those wondering, my game is installed to my HDD. Has been from the first time I put it in my 360. I never play a game without installing it to my HDD first. So there is a very slim chance that it has any scratches at all on it. NCAA 12 is the only game that has frozen on me in a very very long time. And half of the freezes came yesterday after downloading the patch and they were all in the 4th quarter.

All my freezes pre patch were before half time or during the loading screen going into a dynasty game(all online dynasties BTW). I'm hoping it was just a fluke yesterday because I really don't want my game to start freezing all of the time now after the patch finally fixed gameplay, but I wouldn't be surprised.

And to the guy saying to not use custom playbooks, I literally shook my head while reading your post. Custom playbooks was probably the feature I was looking forward to the most this year. I love running an up-tempo(no huddle) offense all game with many read options of of the shotgun and pistol, but I can't do that this year because the no huddle is screwed up and so are the custom playbooks. Pre-patch my plays never showed up and my CPB was worthless, post patch my plays show up, along with 10 other formations I don't want and the no huddle doesn't work, making the scheme I want to use impossible to do.

Hopefully a third patch does come out and fix the issues we're seeing now and does not bring any others with it, but I am certainly not holding my breath.

yea how dare ppl complain about a feature in the game not working........
 
# 394 JohnDoe8865 @ 09/10/11 02:34 PM
Well, the patch DID NOT fix the in-game freezing issues at all! Just had a freeze in a play now game. 3rd and Goal, ND goes to throw a slant in the endzone, I'm BC, my DB bats the ball down and the game freezes while in the animation. Screen goes dim. I've had most of my freezes in the 3rd quarter. Thanks for nothing.

What a joke. I would sell this game if I could get anything for it. The only unfortunate side of everyone knowing that this game is hot garbage is that it has no resell value now. #NCAA12FAIL

I've had my xbox since its release and never had one freezing problem, FYI.

I was a little peeved at first about the custom playbook thing but really when I step back and look at it there are some pretty decent playbooks in the game. There are over 100 playbooks to choose from. plus the playbook I made was that of a cheeser anyways.
 
# 397 SHORTxDOG @ 09/10/11 02:51 PM
not sure if this has been reported or not:

xbox360
online dynasty
CcAaRrSsOoNn03 rosters
5 min qtr
AA
patch 2 and tuner installed

game works great now, no real issues to speak of other than the previously reported no huddle issue and the special teams quick call not defaulting to the correct formation ie punt or FG.

the issue i have is that in the online dynasty, practice mode freezes everytime. i cleared the system cache and still freezes. this is not a deal breaker for me as i do not use it very often. just felt like it needs to be reported.

anyone else having this problem?
 
# 398 Marv_Levy @ 09/10/11 03:09 PM
who cares about custom playbooks when you cant even finish a game without it freezing.

Tried 4 times yesterday to play a week 1 user vs user game on the PS3 in our online dynasty. All 4 times the game froze. We could still talk to each other, we could still access the Playstion XMB, we could still hear the crowd the game was just frozen as we broke the huddle.

i dont care that i cant use a custom playbook.

I DO care that i cant finish an online dynasty game.

Well since I never had the game freeze on me I care about custom playbooks.

This is beyond absurd. Two months for this patch, and they did not even fix the freezing issue... and end up breaking something else with it. Did at some point EA completely layoff their game testers? How else can they explain it?
