I have not tried if me NCAA redeem code will work on new console most likely won't wok

i sign with a EA Account on my old ps3 see i forgot all my passwords and stuff so i got new ones but EA Remembered my account yeah i tried the redeem code and mine was locked what i hate is every 2to 4 weeks i have to re-enter my wireless net code it like 20 letters and numbers the weird part is this website works great on ps3

I wouldhae thought the redeem code was locked only to the email... I had a few accounts and tried them all and didn't work

well done EA locking the redeem code to the console so that if your console breaks down they get $10

Ok I managed to get your draft class (takes forever to sim!)

and I put Ray Lewis to Punter 99 overall and it worked!!!!! yes!!!!!!!!!! woohoooo!!! there is hope for our own madden 13 sure it will take lots of work it's a dam shame we can't share franchise files though

so the retirment problem can be fixed doubt about fixing kickers that are 41 years old though wil have to check.

I got to the draft for some reason I might have screwed up but no first round QBs were there no Luck no Griffith nothing. do you have them moved to another position?

No they should definitely be at QB and I've had them both consistently coming out as projected 1st rounders. Not sure what you did. You gotta make sure that you turn injuries and fatigue off when you sim. Check and make sure they are at least there because if they aren't even in the class you definitely did something wrong. Maybe you forgot to load the right roster?

did you redeem the code using the PS store? pretty sure you wouldn't need to rebuy one if so...

DET's Kicker Jason Hanson is also 40+ and retires every year...

a lot of Long snappers (most are in the game as TE's) retire too, some are only 32 (i.e. Dorenbos, PHI).

Gonna run some testing by the week end, I'll list all guys that retire, and if converting them to K or P worked for all.

i down loaded your Draft class rosters and loved them but u need a adjment i know u cant get all 253 i understand that but for guys like Monte ball WISC RB he comes out u have some jr at 86 or 85 and they come out i know JR come out no matter what but for them highly rated jr etier make them a pure SO or edit down to 79 or 80 and i am a hogs fan can i move Joe Adams to wr and then when the season over before the draft class option happms move him back to QB

Yeah I had injurires off and Fatigure Ill sim another season again and see what the hell I did wrong

[Jibbler]

Its ok I am a idiot! I didn't advance the next stage in NCAA in the offseason so it only saved the draft class before then so had generated fake players LOL

great job and thanks for uploading them! now some work and expierments to do the next 2 months

[Jibbler]

coz of the redeem code crap I can't get the last rostser update anyway... I was goning to download the one thats on here even though it already has the rookies there but I can edit those players into real 1st year players are not in the game

I can see this having lots of problems though.. I do know that the free agents dissapear after the first season. so if I use the rosters on here most have 70 players when cut days happen before the sim most of those players will dissapear won't they? because of the stupid free agent limit. its easy to cut the fake players from each team but I am sure lots of free agents will dissapear.

I wonder if I should wait till the pre season to avoid players dissapearing that I don't want to

I had a Franchise File simulated on Madden 12 that replicated the regular season of 2011, and I even replicated Free Agency(Manning a Bronco, Williams a Bill, etc) and the thing I noticed is that the Draft Class file I'm using is missing several players who were drafted high(didn't have AJ Jenkins, did not have T.J. Graham, Casey Howard, Derek Wolfe and I'm sure others were missing) and in the process of trying to match the Draft in Franchise Mode with the real draft.

Does anyone have an updated 2012 NCAA Draft Class File that is most accurate to the real 2012 Draft?
