ncaa patch no.2 available now

[crowcutta]

Gameplay
Zone Defense has been updated.
- We improved receiver leverage logic as well as predicting when a receiver will be in or out of their zone.
- Improved Deep Half Zone decision making about when to split between uncovered receivers. Also, allow more zone overlapping in deep half to cover more area.
- Deep half defenders were dropping too close to the sideline or dropping outside when no receiver was outside of their position.
No-Huddle QB Spy bug fixed. Defenders will no longer go into spy assignments while in man coverage.
Receivers weren’t looking for hot-read passes.
CPU QBs passing during the drop would get set passes instead of on-the-run inaccurate passes.
Change the logic of man defenders so they don't run into the backfield and past the receiver they are covering.
Route running near sideline was causing issues especially on comeback routes.
Fixed players not respecting global show blitz/press/back off coverage after handing off a receiver.
Fixed sideline streak routes so they don't get clamped in a way that the route would end after 10 or 15 yards.
Drive summaries should now reset after each scoring drive.
Fixed HB stretch play issue where TE’s would be frozen in place during certain blocking animations.
Fixed an issue where if a defender made an interception in the end zone and fumbled the ball before his feet touched the ground, it was being counted as a fumble and not an incomplete pass.
Resolved an alignment issue where DB on HB would pick up FB instead of HB when HB was put in motion
Removed exploit that allowed users to create slant routes to the sideline by motioning a WR and flipping the play.
QB Rushing up the middle from under center effectiveness has been balanced.
FG holders are no longer downed by contact.
Increased frequency of AI using ball carrier special moves.
AI play call tuning: No 4th and long run calls; less draws and screens.
Ball Hawk feature implemented for user pass defense.
Fixed frozen players after celebration dives.
Fixed wildcat Play Action exploit.
Fixed Defenders not reacting to the QB on read option and option plays when the users defensive adjustment vs. option is set to Aggressive.
Fixed shake blitz exploit.
Fixed exploit that allowed kicking team to recover squib kicks using low rated kickers.
Fixed defensive hot routes after offensive play flip.
Fixed issue where waiting for the defense to make their adjustments before picking a play when running ho huddle/hurry up offense caused the defense to reset their play back to the original play.
Fixed ‘Jump the Snap’ blitz exploit.
Resolved issue where defenders would not react or would be stuck in read and react behavior vs. the option.
Dynasty
Once a promise becomes active, it was duplicating after each week advance.
Recruit Reports & Advisory options remained even after the "Allow Time Savers" setting was turned off.
Schools with a D+ Program Tradition could not get their grade increased through wins and championships.
In the off-season, post season games were not shown to have been played.
Fixed an issue where walk-on players were not appearing on the Online Dynasty Web Site.
You will now get your points back if a recruit instantly commits during a phone call.
Fixed an issue where swayed pitches and grades weren’t being displayed correctly.
Custom Playbooks
Fixed an issue where if CPU coaches were given a custom playbook, the players were occasionally lining up close to the ball.
Fixed an issue where the user was unable to create an offensive playbook that consisted of 1 of every formation.
Fixed an issue where the user was sometimes losing functionality after the UI disappears in Custom Playbooks.
Increased the stability of the product by fixing various crashes.
In addition, you will see a "Uniform Store" added to the menu. If it's an update to a team's default uniform, you will get those uniforms at no additional charge, via download in the store if and when available. The first uniforms will be available in the store beginning next month.

about time. Thank you for posting this.

I downloaded the update, played my OD and noticed when I ran the no huddle that my WR would always act like the couldn't hear the play and would do that stupid walking around crap. It basically ruined my no huddle when I wanted to run it, but idk if that has to do with the new update or not.

[uscsaxplaya]

ive experienced a few of these problems before but theres more that could be done.

Yeah this happens pretty much every time you no huddle. Makes it worthless.

[Carolina_Harv]

New uniforms hmmmmmmm......

Had the same thing happening. So freakin annoying.

[Gamecock1983]

Ya'll are not lying. This patch absolutely RUINED the no huddle. I don't run it often, but I like to run a no huddle a few times per game, especially if I feel like I have the opposing defense on the ropes.

It literally just took be about 20 seconds to get a snap off after the formation was set. I see they're trying to make it a bit more realistic, but they went over board...plain and simple.

Me too. It's so annoying. I have lost 3 games as a direct result of this.

[USCBand]

I like the updates!

[SECgamecock453]

The update blows.. no huddle is ruined and the uniform store doesn't even have anything available in it yet. Why make an update to include a new feature that has nothing added to it? Why not just have a 3rd update and release the uniform store when there is actually something to DL in it!?

[I Bleed Garnet]

Agreed.

No huddle sucks. It's now as if my team can't hear in its own stadium.

[USCBand]

I would say no huddle is improved. The whole purpose is to catch the other team in bad personnel groupings and to attack mismatches. What was unrealistic was being able to run a no huddle play in under 5 seconds.

you're right but at the same time real quarters are 15 min long not 5, so being able to run a no huddle that fast is kinda like scaling that.

[flwilhelm]

Anybody else having trouble with formation subs in game? Is there a way to delete the patch?

[crowcutta]

you can delete the patch but anytime you try to play online it will force you to redownload it.

apparently there is a workaround for the no huddle thing, going no huddle then audible back to your original play supposedly immediately gets your offense out of purgatory. i havent done it so i may not be explaining it exactly right. still, i think youre screwed if you have to spike it.

its an intentional "fix" by ea to combat people who abuse the no huddle online. it would be one thing if it worked, but they go overboard and in the process kill users who play offline vs the cpu. i cant remember the last feature they've implemented that didnt initially ruin the game or eventually ruin the game. gameplan feature is the first thing that needs to go.

it would be awesome if someone besides qb's and rb's could get injured in a non simulation setting.

[flwilhelm]

How do you delete the patch?

And, when you run the hurry up, wait til your guys get set and audible to the original play.

Also, will the next patch fix these new issues and when does it come out?

[crowcutta]

you probably have to go into your xbox or ps3 settings and find the ncaa file that corresponds to it. the last patch i think was 6 mb or so. might want to go onto google for more details, ive never deleted one myself.

next patch hasnt been announced yet, its probably at least a month or two away of testing and complaining before we find out what they do with a 3rd patch.

[flwilhelm]

I deleted the patch. Is there a way to download the first patch again?
