scrolled through about 10 pages, saw someone else ask about fixed accel clock in online CCM. can anyone confirm if that is indeed fixed? also, and most importantly...does it require a restart for online CCM leagues?

You must be forgetting the debacle last year with Online Association and the joke that was NBA2K.com, which launched a month after the game came out and was still missing Online Association features. Hell every year 2K has to put out a patch to fix some part of online gameplay/stabilization.

Not to mention issues w/ offline association and rookies coming in flawed, stats being off, big men shooting too many 3 pointers...that's just off the top of my head from 2K12.

This^^

All I'm concerned with ATM is playcall style saving to conventional, formation subs saving, schemes saving, assists being recorded, and a CPU AI actually capable of playing a competitive game against my Pats on All-Pro/All-Madden. Everything else I can wait for, but looks like I'll have to wait for damn near all of this.

This whole "We're continuously and SECRETLY patching and tuning the game online" is a bunch of baloney if you ask me. How convenient that it's been stated that "you won't know when it happens or won't be prompted" when the game is "tuned."

Genious marketing ploy by EA to satisfy the disgruntled crowd. So online is supposed to be ahead of offline but for example, we're still playing online with old rosters? Ok...

I'm playing and ENJOYING and online CCM mode (even with all the bugs) and the CPU AI has NOT improved. One game they will play great and I'll think, "Wow, did EA put in one of the magical mystical tuners?" Then they will play boneheaded the next game. Then they will play great for two games and boneheaded for the next three after that. The only consistency is the inconsistency as well as the proven AI bugs such as poor clock management when behind in the 4th quarter.

# 230 CSL @ 09/11/12 04:12 PM

is this not out in the UK/Europe yet? Because I'm not being prompted to DL it and we've always gotten patches at the same time

EDIT: ahhh n/m, just seen the original post mention about it only being 360 atm

# 231 dirtysouth1295 @ 09/11/12 04:13 PM

did they fix the gameflow resetting every game?

Have you seen the AI do this during regular games in the 2 minute drill in online CC?

Because that's what it's done in Offline CC and play now since release. Practice team AI still blows even in online CC, but I can live with that as long as the actual game 2 minute drill AI is better.

I didn't see any major Association Issues that kept me from starting one in the first two months of release. Could PC and console be that much different?

http://www.operationsports.com/forum...archid=5814506

Freezing, stats being off, players names being changed for no good reason in later years of association, CPU trade logic being bad (which has been an issue for years)...

I hate when people compare Madden to NBA 2K as if it is flawless. Yeah it's a great game but it has it's flaws as well.

It's disgusting that the Man Defense is still abysmally bad! And you still can't hot route while using Any on team up.

Sony releases the patch. EA sends it to sony, and sony determines what time the patch is released to us.

EA releases the patch to MS/Sony.

The patch is delivered to the public in two weeks once it hits MS/Sony if there isn't any glitches.

MS/Sony then releases the patch to the public.

How many more times are you going to ask if the patch is released? Someone on here will announce it when the patch arrives.

Stay tuned.
