I'm seriously thinking of unreserving my copy after reading about some of these glitches and bugs.

Yeah, I watched that video this morning. Also, when anyone tries to do the rosters, after a couple teams, the game has been locking up, saved files dissapearing, ect. for both system versions. The only roster file that is completed is owned by pastapadre, but apparently he mentioned to a couple people that he did indeed recieve the file itself from EA. There's been many reports of games locking up, and players becoming invisible when using the roster file.

I am also concidering my reserve also and switch it to something else because this is getting rediculous. How could things like that get past testing?

Also, the depth chart glitch is still in the game. That was a huge frick up in 08, and they couldn't get it right for 09.

The EA rep on Operation Sports doesn't think it will be patched until after "weeks and weeks" of testing. They only get one patch so it probably wouldn't released until late December like the patch for NCAA 08

According to numerous accounts, high completion % for QBs, large number of INTs (again) and overall defensive AI sucks. But hey, we got mascot teams!

Maybe, or maybe not, i'm not a game developer.

If a patch comes out, how long do we wait? I'm guessing a patch to fix these problems don't come out until September at the earliest.

There goes 3 useless minutes of my life I am never getting back If that is really Fairdale Kings, he seems like the guy that still lives with his mom and is in his late 30's or so. The only people who would EVER see that is if they for some reason wanted to play as those teams. Also, all the high QB completion and interceptions, it's called sliders

True, but it says something when people are having to set the QB pass completion sliders down to 10 and 20. And the D-Line Break Block to 100 and O-Line Pass Block to 10...

Graphically and smoothness of gameplay is much improved, but the game seems to have gone gold with more bugs than my backyard.

why would they try and make an honest effort to improve the game?

I don't think it was shite, just a lot of lost potential.

I when they set these hard dates on games and rush them out of development. I never saw the reason that NCAA had to be release in July. Release in late August when football season is about to start and give them another month to test and correct problems.

Is the missing teams bug PS3 only when editing the rosters? If so that won't affect me since I have a 360 but I still think its shitty for PS3 people. I know how much I hate playing without the rosters.

The bug was on 360. It only has happened after you start editing the rosters. So if you load a roster file with all names, don't edit them and it should be fine. But if you want to make some corrections, the game may freeze or lose teams.
