I dunno about him. But i have uverse. My Modem is my router. Its basically direct connected already

No, it's basically not, but that answers the question. :p Whelp, that sucks. This has been going on with some people before the patch. This isn't a patch issue. This is either a problem with the game itself or connection issue. I doubt Ian and company even acknowledge it at this point since they don't care about OF. Not sure what a fair resolution would be.

yo just wanted to check in, see what the situation is with the league and me, etc... Am I playing this week or did someone sub in? I know I'm really out of it right now, and for that I'm sorry, but the lsat is kinda gonna determine my future...

If you could find Ram now, that would be great. He can't connect to your substitute anyway. :p

No it is. What else would i have to directly connect to?

Regardless, ive never had a problem actually completing a game in any league due to not being able to connect properly. So i doubt its me or sable. especially since we've never had problems before. ITs just their shit code

Wow imagine a year where the MLB the Show league finishes a season and Madden cannot. I'll remind DM every day until Madden 12 is out!

Shame of it all is most of these issues could be ironed out of EA allowed us to use sliders in the online franchise.

Now, Bob. Don't be bringing down the morale of the league.

I am not attacking FMT, soldier. I am pretty upset with another broken promise. My mistake was putting ANY faith in Tiburon fixing it. My reaction today is about their inability to fix a $60 game. I apologize for posting about trade-in values. My intention wasn't to create a mutiny. At some point though, if EA doesn't fix it, the trade-in value will be much less, obviously.

My god at the bitching. I think the game is great. Best Madden since 1998's version.

The only thing I am bitching about is the piss poor customer service of Tiburon. I reacted to not being able to connect to Ramirez in a league game that I was subbing in for Peterboy. I expect patches to fix things. Not break them. But I will go attack windmills about something else. I will resume playing my games in silence for the rest of the season (and having fun).

Oh god.

I was direct connected, and I have it installed. It kept giving me a "high server traffic" after every disconnect. I can play Reach fine, but Madden's servers can't handle the load of 5K people on at the same time.

I wonder if that key re-dl thing works.

Direct connected as in modem to xbox? If so no, I am wired though. Also yes it is installed, what's odd is that we can connect to a party together. Whenever I have had issues before with others we couldn't even join a party.

Anyways I have open nat, ports open, etc and haven't had any issues before really. Also we were able to get further before the patch, now we get disconnected right at the start.

I can try direct connect next time and see if it helps I guess

I'm not saying it's the reason. It just allows for an overall better Live experience and is very simple to do.

Yeah, modem to xbox.

If you have everything open, that's probably the game. It's not that the game won't let you play it's that it won't let you play with CB. This happens every year, unfortunately. There are certain pairings of people that can't connect. This year, it's been more widespread after a certain game was released... coincidence?!

On the one hand, I guess he left control because he wants it advanced... on the other hand, he went to go see Muse, so fuck him.

League stays unadvanced!

Soooooo good live. They played way to much of Resistance, but still a stellar live show. I was on the floor for it and managed to force/sneak my way to the barricade. So worth it. Let me know how it goes for you champ

It won't advance in 20 mins. We have Ramirez MIA... not sure if he wants to skip cpu play or what. Kave said he and Live were going to play tonight... dunno what's up with that.

[edit] Damn your stealth edit... now it looks like I'm talking to myself!

Worst record gets first picks and it gets filtered that way.
I think two rounds. A list will be made out.

Then players either post, pm, im a list of players they want. Commish then checks off player and list until both rounds are complete.
