might as well let em know

laxman, I hope it wasn't the teambuilder team that made your game freeze. If so, I apologize. Let me know if it gets better if you try deleting it. I've played the heck out of it and mine hasn't frozen once. Go figure.

I blame Erin Andrews...she made my computer freeze once, but that's a different story altogether.

7/11/2012 9:53:47 PM

Not saying it was the file, but the way the game reads it. The jerseys are pretty badass. I like this game a lot if it would just work

7/11/2012 10:16:45 PM

I'm sure they'll fix it

http://youtu.be/F3PGbF87hNw

7/11/2012 10:59:13 PM

EA Sports will fix it, and Ernie won't buy it

7/11/2012 11:01:39 PM

Interesting. 2 games in and I've yet to see a single fumble, but INT's galore.

After 2 games:
CJ Wilson - 4 INTs
D. Amerson - 2 INTs, 1 TD
R. Cheek - 1 INT, 1 TD
B. Bishop - 1 INT

And my special team player of the year candidate so far, haha:
T. Creecy - 1 KR TD, 1 PR TD

Recruiting is more interesting to me this time around. Nice to find a "GEM"(found 2 so far) and discover the "BUST"s early(found 3 so far). Mainly in it with 3-stars so far, but in the top 5 for a few 4-stars and top 3 for a 5-star RB(#1 RB).

7/12/2012 8:32:02 AM

^what difficulty are you playing on.

7/12/2012 8:50:19 AM

All-American.

My defense isn't as strong as it looks. Yeah I live off turnovers so far. Last game I was very "bend don't break" and they'd march down to the redzone and I'd make a stop and force a FG or get a turnover.

Those stats are a little skewed. Tennessee's QB came out and laid a STINKER of a half(6 INT in the first half, then none in the 2nd half). ND QB had 300+ passing yards but 2 picks(first pass of the game was a screen pass by Amerson returned for a TD).

And both kick returns were just one move deals where I found a gap and turned on the jets.

My offense is "OK" so far. Glennon averaging 1 INT a game but still having a solid season.

7/12/2012 9:28:23 AM

Beat Tenn 45-38 on Heisman as a bone standard NCSU roster. INTs galore on Heisman. I threw four INTs as Glennon but still won thanks to a PR for TD and a couple of long breaks. Opponent backs make tons of miracle leaps and warp around for catches.

7/12/2012 10:15:10 AM

wow, the refs actually called a facemask penalty!

7/12/2012 5:16:03 PM

Why is it that sometimes when you hold RT presnap it shows the players names and other times it doesn't?

7/12/2012 6:18:50 PM

And tried State/UT again, definitely a different outcome this time. State intercepted a Bray pass in the 1st quarter for a pick-six, but then UT scored 49 unanswered. Bray had 6 TDs, 3 to Hunter. Hunter and Rogers had over 100 yards receiving, and Marlin Lane had 172 yards rushing. Glennon was horrible, 14 for 38, one INT. for some reason the CPU runs the option a LOT with State... never works

7/12/2012 7:10:32 PM

lol, computer calls option plays sometimes in my Barry Sanders Heisman State team...one time Glennon faked a pitch and gained about 12 yards!

7/12/2012 7:12:27 PM

Who has the best roster file

7/12/2012 7:29:48 PM

I'm using the roster from gamertag 'xIZ GONE RAINx'

also one of the achievements is to win the national championship in your first dynasty year with either UMass, Texas State or Texas San Antonio...my UMass dynasty started freezing every time I tried to play my week 8 game, and I didn't do a custom schedule, so I started a dynasty with Texas State...scheduled Bama, USC and LSU in the first 3 weeks, beat them all, each was ranked #1 at the time...I'm ranked #16 in the nation now, about to play #1 ranked Oregon, and my week 5 and 6 opponents are currently ranked #4 Arkansas and #5 FSU...i also added an automatic BCS tie in to the winner of the WAC

if i run the table and don't get an invite to the championship game, its some bullshit

7/12/2012 7:41:34 PM

just wait for the 4 team playoff patch

7/12/2012 9:26:43 PM

thats for NCAA Football 14 i'm afraid

just played this guy in an online game, me as State, him as FSU...i should've just quit when he went for it on 4th and 13 from his own 20 in the first quarter after running hurry up offense all game...i was up 14-10 late in the 3rd, he won like 41-14 cause i quit trying to defend him late in the game when he was hurry up offense passing (read: scrambling with Manuel in 5-wide sets)

i need to just play as Bama or LSU online since 90% of random opponents play like faggots with no concept of sportsmanship or actual football

^^ Tree...Son... I have never been prouder of you.

7/13/2012 12:10:31 AM

i play legit video game football jaybee, we can get a game if you want me to show that, if you want to abandon coach mode for a single contest

would be a good friendly matchup for our Chick Fil A kickoff classic in the A-Town


[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 12:28 AM. Reason : god damn spelling]

7/13/2012 12:26:38 AM

maybe, but I would be really bad outside of coach mode now... havent played that way since probably Sept of 2010 and never learned any changes to the buttons or additions in the 2011 game or this one, but I would give it a shot although I am sure you would destroy me... although I always beat the fuck out of Slave Famous

7/13/2012 12:29:39 AM

me and slave famous are probably 2-2 head to head, or 20-20, point is, its always a close game, but we both play legit football

maybe UT's overall better rating than NCSU would be a good equalizer for my more recent practice at playing this

i'm on right now if you're down

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 12:32 AM. Reason : unless you have a pressing appointment at Starbucks]

7/13/2012 12:31:17 AM

whats your thingy again? awkwarderotic or something right?

7/13/2012 12:32:57 AM

yes, the same gamertag you sent a message to like 4 hours ago, thats me

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 12:35 AM. Reason : i see you're online, allow me to take a leak before we get down to business]

7/13/2012 12:35:02 AM

Huh? What did the message say?

7/13/2012 12:37:06 AM

"GO VOLS!"

7/13/2012 12:38:14 AM

Oh shit! That's right! Go Vols!

7/13/2012 12:38:59 AM

i sent you 2 invites, are you downloading rosters or something?

7/13/2012 12:39:58 AM

Keeps saying cant connect

7/13/2012 12:40:01 AM

invite me then

i went to Create Custom Match

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 12:41 AM. Reason : wonder if we can play in the ATL]

7/13/2012 12:40:31 AM

getting connect errors, you got a mic so we can talk this through?

7/13/2012 12:47:34 AM

Get the invite?


No idea where my mic is

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 12:48 AM. Reason : E]

7/13/2012 12:47:53 AM

You two are clueless.

7/13/2012 12:48:53 AM

lemme reboot my xbox

couldnt even connect to the party which isnt usually a problem with a new game

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 12:50 AM. Reason : ^stfu sir]

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 12:51 AM. Reason : but if you found your mic, we could orchestrate other ways of getting int he same game]

7/13/2012 12:49:27 AM

go to lobby East #1 and see if we can find each other

7/13/2012 12:55:35 AM

restart your box and see if that helps

if not, fuck it

also i call shenanigans, or should i say Shannonigans on you not finding your mic, me and hey now both saw your icon light up a couple times

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 1:03 AM. Reason : .]

7/13/2012 1:02:17 AM

Restarting everything. Brb


When I mute everything the icon pops up

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 1:05 AM. Reason : S]

7/13/2012 1:03:23 AM

i dunno man, keep getting errors

could be EA problems, but i dunno why

7/13/2012 1:09:19 AM

Could it be something like our rosters not matching up?

7/13/2012 1:10:26 AM

i have xIZ GONE RAINx rosters, but shouldnt be an issue, same player ratings, just names versus jersey numbers

one thing to try is since you havent played an online game at all and i've played 2 (i'm 0-2), you could try starting a random ranked match, which would get you to download any necessary rosters and/or tuning data, might help, try that

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 1:12 AM. Reason : .]

7/13/2012 1:11:12 AM

I have some random dudes rosters, so maybe that its... every time it boots me from a session, it says "loading rosters" right after it. So can I get my rosters from you?


tried the random game, booted from that too

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 1:13 AM. Reason : d]

7/13/2012 1:12:21 AM

you should be able to get them from me

my errors are always "session not available" and stuff, i havent seen any roster errors

i havent played any custom matches like we're trying, but i have successfully played other online matches, so maybe it is your rosters

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 1:14 AM. Reason : .]

7/13/2012 1:14:03 AM

tried to get it from you, said you had no roster to download... so I guess you need to upload yours first?

7/13/2012 1:14:56 AM

try entering gamertag xIZ GONE RAINx

7/13/2012 1:15:39 AM

got it, send another invite

had to reload rosters, also deleted the other one I had, try again

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 1:20 AM. Reason : f]

7/13/2012 1:17:52 AM

invite sent

7/13/2012 1:19:48 AM

keep getting " game session no longer available" messages

fuck

see if you can get a game with a random person in the East #1 lobby just to try and narrow the problem down

[Edited on July 13, 2012 at 1:24 AM. Reason : tr]

7/13/2012 1:23:17 AM

yeah and then some random dude came in and he was able to pick him team... so it seemed to be working for him. odd

7/13/2012 1:24:19 AM

we'll try again over the weekend i guess, dunno what else we can try tonight

7/13/2012 1:25:47 AM

go to the lobby and try inviting me

7/13/2012 1:26:33 AM
