you did forget the part at the end though where he asks me to fill out a questionnaire that will be coming my way regarding EA's services and my phone experience. I guess they figure if I am good enough to hang on the phone that long for no help odds are I will write something positive.
they did e-mail me and in the e-mail contained a link where I can "buy direct" LOL... awesome!
seriously, if thats it, its pretty sad....defense is still destroyed? there better be a dang effort to fix the zone defense..fixing hurry up was actually least important compared to that..but it also must be easier to do,.. so thats why they did that.....?Quote:

Yeah, not sure where all this surprise is coming from all of a sudden. It's been stated repeatedly, on Facebook, on Twitter, in blogs, on the EA forums, on here, and all sorts of other places, that patch #3 was only going to correct the no huddle issue because they were able to quickly locate the exact problem with it, and wanted to get the fix out as quickly as possible as it was something they viewed as problematic or severe enough that it warranted it's own patch. EA was extremely straightforward and open about exactly what this patch was going to deal with, and not deal with, from day one that #3 was first announced, and yet people are still acting surprised that it's only fixing one thing.Quote:

I just look at a few sources if I feel like it and see what actually happens.. i never paid attention to how long these things took in the past because it wasnt that bad and I really didnt care.. but this year was a major botch job by any companies standards....and dont take anything I say personal or have a hissy fit about it, ive been supportive,..today, right now, I feel like being bitchy LOL...fix the damn defense before halloweenQuote:

That was the message from day one in regards to patch #3....that wasn't grapevine speculation or anything.....that was the word from them specifically all along. This is no surprise.

I'll be blunt..there are plenty of internet and computer design jobs in this world that are much,much harder than designing a video game and many of those do not take error kindly or flippantly and in some cases there is no room for error.
for someone who is supposed to be educated in this sort of thing, how hard can it be ? if you know patching is an inexact science, dont bother doing it yet till you know how to handle it and end up screwing up something in a month, it took you 9 months to design to a reasonable level
Darn all those people who wanted a game that had no bugs, darn them all. :rolleyes:Quote:

But the other issues are what are pissing people off JB. Listen, you guys run a great site and do a nice job here and it's a shame the game that gets you the most traffic on this site wasn't (at very least) 95% ready to go by release date, but it wasn't. You have to realize that the venom will be on this game until it's 100% and even after that.Quote:

Finally, I got the fine folks here to contact people at EA and CDJ (I think) fixed the issue for me.Quote:

I've never said I want more out of patch #3. I do find it wild that "how it's worded" the "tact" for better use of a word is being said, "we are getting the patch out asap b/c we know this is an issue..."
Do they realized this was NOT an issue prior to their patch #2? Have they ever said that in poor man's English, "we release patch #2, it caused the no-huddle issue". I've yet to hear them say, it was our mistake. I mean, this is their product, take some freaking ownership.
You make a lot of money off of the product, support it and take credit for it, in good times AND bad.
I'm glad patch #3 is coming out to fix THEIR mess up. Just would be nice to hear them say the real reason why it's coming out, not well we know ya'll are having a hard time so WE are working 24hr/day/7/day to make you happy. Are you serious?
If I took my car to the mechanic to get the A/C fixed and it came back with no engine, I'm thinking that wouldn't say something like, OH So now you want us to fix that TOO? Well we'll do our best to see what happened to the engine but we aren't going to fix anything else! :bang:
Um, how are they not taking ownership? I think it goes without saying that it's their mistake. I doubt anyone is assuming you did it. :fp:
It's their product, any issues within it are, obviously, their mistake. :fp:

I just hope and pray that this patch fixes the no huddle issue AND it doesn't cause MORE headache.
I'm a stay at home Dad, when my kids finally get to bed it's nice to be able to turn the NCAA game on and have some down time, it's a nice slow down period of my day.
I just wish it would work, that's all.
I've even told myself, well ODs are nice but if they have transfer fails issues, oh well. I just want to play vs the CPU if it comes to that. If they fix the no-huddle stuff and nothing else AND THEY DON'T BREAK ANYTHING ELSE with this Patch #3, then I'm 100% happy at this time.
I guess if all else fails and this patch #3 doesn't do as promised I will be forced to come to the choice of playing as is, or saying good bye to my ODs and deleting all the data from my PS3 HHD and starting over from scratch only playing offline. Which I really REALLY don't want to do but atleast I will be able to play offline.
It would be cool to be able to spend all this time on the game playing it, instead of coming on here reading other comments about it, getting all worked up and typing more.
I'd love to be able to play in my offline dynasty without the CPU giving it to me up the butt with their no-huddle. I'm HOPING this will be the case come Friday.....in the meantime....I'm going to try REALLY hard to just not type in this thread anymore...it seems to be going no where.
Question: How can I personally fix this issue of not being able to start a new OD? I figure that if I delete everything off my hard drive that has to do with this game I have to be able to start a new OD right? Only problem is that I don't know how to delete every NCAA 12 file off my console, does anyone here know how to do that or have a different suggestion? I already deleted the game itself that I had downloaded onto the hard drive, but I don't know how to delete all the other files. Thanks.
I'm almost certain there is nothing you can do on your end. Deleting files, etc. likely won't effect anything. The problem almost certainly is on their server's end and your "account" on that server. That's why I suggested you call because maybe they will actually investigate the server and be able to do something about it.Quote:

If it works, then it's something involving your specific console, likely the MAC address or something along those lines. If it doesn't work, then that just confirms that it's tied to your profile on their server.
If you do that, post your results and I'll pass that along with the notes I've sent about your situation in the past. Might tell them something they're not aware of.
I did call them and spoke to them for a long time... they have never heard of TRANSFER FAILED outside of what comes up on GOOGLE!Quote:
