NCAA Football 09 Has a Shitload of Problems Bugs

Message boards and forums are livid at EA and NCAA Football 09, whose problems apparently go well beyond EA Locker corrupting the roster files. AOL Fanhouse went through the boards and made a full accounting, and it's grim. Sliders are borked. The CPU sliders do nothing. Human sliders affect both CPU and human. Level playing field! Online dynasty mode is borked. It sometimes simulates games that have been played by humans. Super-sim is borked: Using it to fast-forward through a blowout can add many more plays than would actually happen in the football game, and produce extremely lopsided final scores. Kick returns are borked. The new player speed model is causing huge problems with pursuit angles by CPU-controlled players. I have the game but I have not played it intensively enough to discover these issues. But if these issues are on the level and, worse, if some gameplay mechanics are not patchable, then it's an almost unforgivable shame.

Odiemonster 360plex Score: 4651 Join Date: May 2007 Camp Lejeune, NC USA Member #: 24 Total Posts: 429	Posted: 2 months ago I have the game and played through a single season of on-line dynasty. The issues are have with the dynasty or minor, but for hard core gamers, they are big. All dynasty trophies earned in online dynasty will go to your shrine, but not rival trophies. Any records that you break will not be reflected in the records section, unless you are the commissioner of the dynasty. The commisioner can sim ever game, if they choose too. I believe that there should be a time limit set to when the other players need to play there game or they will be set to CPU. The off season is really dragged out. Game issues - The run animation is horrible, the recievers/half backs do not have a stride in their step. It looks like one step is equal to 1 yard. --------------------------------- How's my gaming?

I bought the game when it first came out and haven't seen and major problems, but knowing they there are some makes me kinda wish I had spent my $60 elsewhere. --------------------------------- Get yo popcorn ready!
Odiemonster 360plex Score: 4651 Join Date: May 2007 Camp Lejeune, NC USA Member #: 24 Total Posts: 429	Posted: 2 months ago I have decided not to continue with my Dynasty and only play the Campus Legend right now. There are rumors that once a patch is released; any current EA Locker rosters will not work. --------------------------------- How's my gaming?
Ddog0587 360plex Score: 1300 Join Date: Jun 2008 Southfield, MI Member #: 598 Total Posts: 103	Posted: 2 months ago I consider myself a hardish core NCAA player and the issues arent too big as of yet. On the flip side its still 1million times better than the 07 version, that game was G-A-R-B-A-G-E. --------------------------------- Slow is steady, Steady is fast.
Ddog0587 360plex Score: 1300 Join Date: Jun 2008 Southfield, MI Member #: 598 Total Posts: 103	Posted: 2 months ago I would just like to say that last night while playing Auburn i threw a pass and the CB went quite literally THROUGH my receiver to pick off the pass and take it back for 6. 20 secs into the game..................i threw the sticks and shut it off. i havent been so irate in a while. --------------------------------- Slow is steady, Steady is fast.
