Update on NCAA Football 09 Issues

Posted July 25th, 2008 at 2:00 pm

The roster editing patch is currently in certification at Microsoft and Sony. There is no specific day the patch will be approved and pushed out but it should not be too long now, possibly by the end of next week.

The second patch, which is intended to improve different gameplay elements, is still in the evaluation period. Right now a reasonable expectation on when this patch will arrive is September. So far it will include fixes to sliders, improvements to kick/punt return coverage, and various tuning to areas such as zone coverages, man vs RBs, and strafe catching. There will be more included in the patch but as of now those are the things that are confirmed.

The issues with Online Dynasty have been identified and some fixes have been implemented that should prevent them from occuring in the future. This didn’t require a patch as it was server related. Anyone who has a dynasty that they are locked out of where it boots you back to the menu screen can leave your gamertags (commish preferred) in the comments and I’ll pass them along as they may be able to recover the dynasty.

No word yet on a fix for the uploading of online dynasty screenshots. It is apparently being looked into.

    September??? What is the point most of us will be playing Madden anyways, except for the hardcore college football fans. EA i guess is doing what they can to make the community happy but i think its little too late. These issues should have been addressed and fixed before the game came out.

    I want to know why do they rush out these games if they know they will have major problems like these I mean college football season does not start until the end of August then they could straighten out the issues that the games have it is really unnecessary for them to come out a month before the season starts than they would not need a patch to fix the issues

    Pasta, instead of complaining, I will simply say thank you!

    Thanks for always keeping us informed about what’s going on. This game is super-awesome (flaws and all) and it’s comforting to know that we will have peace of mind at some point.

    For people like me who ONLY get enjoyment from this game alone, I truly appreciate your efforts.

    Shomari is right. Thanks Pasta for always keeping us updated on everything going on in the video game sports world. Now I know this may sound stupid or they may not have enough space on either next – gen console , but I think it would be great if EA combined both NCAA and Madden together into one game and release it every September. We would get the best of both worlds and EA could combine their staff and concentrate on one football game. Imagine starting a Campus Legend all the way through to the NFL, that would be awsome. Its just an idea but i think it would serve the community really well, instead of buying two of almost the same football games within a month, they could price it at like $69.99 and have a better quality all in all football game. Just an idea…

    this is good news, even though I have not experienced the Roster issues or online dynasty, but I do want everyone to experience ncaa like they are supposed to.
