Yes, I would think so...

Well, it's a good thing I leave the country in a week for a few weeks...things will be sorted for sure by then.

I didn't think PS2 had any roster problem.

I thought the roster problem was PS3/360 specific.

I just posted this on my site...

Once the patch is released I will begin working on the rosters from scratch. I've been strongly encouraged to wait until the patch has been released before working on the roster files. That is only because no one is absolutely 100% sure that rosters will continue to work post-patch. I would hate to name 116 teams and encounter a problem where teams begin disappearing again. That is just too much time and effort spent for no reason.

You shouldn't have to. This bug only works with the roster file. Once you start a dynasty, it takes the currently loaded roster and adds it to the dynasty file. So that apparently fixes this bug (though you can't pull the roster OUT of dynasty, so that isn't a workaround... actually a feature some of us want).

However, if you want to use new rosters with your dynasty you will have to restart it. That's just how the game has always worked (see above) and nothing to do with the bug or patch.
