XBox 360 Roster

Hello, Hello!

So EA FINALLY released an update, in which they fixed up the CHL, NHL, & Euro leagues. BUT as many of you noticed, due to their licensing agreements/pure laziness, they DELETED 95% of the CHL players that were in the original rosters who came to the AHL this offseason. So now we will have to add them all back in for you (joy)! With the additional work we are pushing our guaranteed release date back to Tuesday, though I was reassured by Ogie that we'd be good to go before Sunday anyway. You'll be happy to know that the USB functionality DOES in fact work!! We will release all of the information on that, including a "How To" video, and PDF version of a "How To" document, courtesy of GooseGoose35! We'll keep you updated on the progress.

THERE IS NO NEED TO CONSTANTLY EMAIL ME ABOUT THE USB STUFF OR WHEN THIS WILL BE RELEASED!!

  1. Ya I think waiting until next week would be the best! Just wondering will I need a transfer kit? or can I just use a flash drive?

  2. next week! especially if that includes more caps.

    ReplyDelete
  3. next week, but will you have instructions on how to do this for the xbox360 and is it possible for the playstation 3?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Not yet. We are trying to figure out a way to get it working with PS3 but for now its only on 360. And yes we'll have instructions included.

    ReplyDelete
  5. Next Week, This Week, Don't care as long as we get them.. Great Job PetrPuck

    ReplyDelete
  6. is there a option that you release this weekend version 1 and next week the opening night roster? ;)

    ReplyDelete
  7. I can make do until opening night rosters are available. Awesome work, guys. Thank you for making my NHL 11 playable.

    ReplyDelete
  8. Next week for sure... In the meantime, people can work on getting their audio set up..

    BTW Petr, You need to fix the links in the Audio Section.. you have an old outdated version posted... Cost me a few hours of my life, but a willing sacrifice based on everything this site has GIVEN to me...

    Also.. come on man.. the comments are a real CHORE to read... Check my email about how to fix it.

  9. Next week. I wish I knew how to download these superb rosters. Will we have instructions on what we need --how to download, etc.?

    ReplyDelete
  10. Next week for sure.

    Off-topic - just wondering if the created players that aren't in the actual game will be in the roster download (Scrivens, Rynnas ect.)

    Also will Jerry D'Amigo be added?

    Thanks for everything

    ReplyDelete
  11. Hey Petr, I am not asking for the entire instructions right now, but can you list what we would need to use to DL and use the 360 roster?

    I have been creating the CAPs as you post them, but I still got a LONG way to go to get the Roster Movements finished.

    I am not sure if I have what it takes to use the 360 Roster, so I dont know if I should just stop and wait for the DL or if I should continue with my own movements?

    ReplyDelete
  12. As of right now at least for the first roster download, it is going to be based through the transfer kit. So you'll need one of those to download/upload it. We're still testing the USB so its a possibility later on.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Next week would be fine for me... I just appreciate this immensely. I have the Xchange transfer kit for the 360 so I'm glad to hear you're going to have this as an option! Many thanks!!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Hmmm.. Okay.. Well I did some research on Amazon for Transfer Kits and I see that some of them have stopped working..

    Which Transfer Kit do you use and recommend buying?

    @mkharsh33... good to see you around these parts, bud.. how did the MLB stuff go.. I focused my time on MyPlayer and lost touch with the roster scene.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I don't have one but Ogie does. He does the transfers using his Datel transfer kit.

    ReplyDelete
  16. hey Petr, there maybe a way to use your rosters with the flash drive. If you would like me to try it, let me know, I'll give ya my email so you can send it to me and I can see if it works.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Can you let us know if we'll be able to use a usb stick or will we need a transfer kit?

    ReplyDelete
  18. Can you update on twitter when the roster is up? So I can get home and download it? haha thanks for everything on this site. It's amazing!!

    ReplyDelete
  19. do u knw exactly when you will have the rosters up?? I mean by all means take your time, i would rather you take your time and make sure everything is good and ready to go, then rush, mess up and do a bad job on it.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Any news on when it will be available?

    ReplyDelete
  21. uhhhhhh this totally missed opening day.... i wonder if ea will beat u to it this year lol

    ReplyDelete
  22. Is there an idea of when these rosters will be downloadable via file transfer kit? (btw, great job with the rosters)!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Ogie is flying down here this weekend to visit and then we are going to finalize everything and test the USB functionality. Then we will have at least a Transfer Kit file to download by Monday night.

    ReplyDelete
  24. And I do apologize that we are overdue but you need to understand that the 3 of us have jobs and with the hockey season underway I've been working a lot more lately! Also, I've been dealing with a lot of personal issues with my house back in New York as all of my stuff was ruined in a flood - so my mind has been a bit off kilter the last few weeks. Ogie was waiting on me to get all of the NHL contracted CAPs done and goalie equip edits up so he can update everyone and have legitimate NHL and AHL rosters for you in update #1!

    ReplyDelete
  25. No need to apologize, Petr. I'm grateful for the hard (and unpaid!) work. I look forward to trying the USB format to get the rosters but will get the transfer kit, if the USB format proves not to be functional.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Fingers crossed for MONDAY and the USB format functionality...

    ReplyDelete
  27. the new roster update is close to useless. It wont save u too many cap slots as they didn't make any Euro or NCAA prospects that moved to the AHL. They also completely took out players from the CHL who moved to the AHL. Kadri, Hodgson and anyone else who jumped to the AHL from the CHL is no longer in the game.

    ReplyDelete
  28. hey Petr, as for the usb thing, have you tried this : http://www.operationsports.com/forums/madden-nfl-football-rosters/409673-step-step-guide-transfering-roster-files-onto-usb-flashdrive-x360-users-only.html. It seems to work for madden, and everyone at OS seems to not have any complaints. Back to fixing the "new
    " rosters

    ReplyDelete
  29. will i be able to transfer the roster with a flash or external hard drive or do i need one of these transfer kit things?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Awesome, this weekend can't come soon enough, Petr and team. Now if we can only get EA to release a patch so dynasty mode won't be broken...

    ReplyDelete
  31. I hope I can transfer these using USB, but mainly I just want to say thanks for all your hard work. Don't apologize. You guys are doing the rest of us a huge favor. So take all the time you need. EA gets paid to this and has repeatedly fell short.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Petr, one more thing that would seem helpful to me would be if you can post a summary list of changes you've made to the new roster update. You don't have to list specific specific edits. It could have a section on cap names, transactions, and players edited and users could just go to the appropriate page for the actual changes. I know you're already doing a TON for all of us, but this seems like it could be really useful.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Petr--I live in the New York area too and my house wasn't flooded this past rainstorm but the rains in this area have done some serious damage to my house in the past--I feel for you, man. I hope you got all of that bullcrap cleared out for you by now.

    Thanks for all of your hard work on the roster! You all do an absolutely amazing job with your CAPs and I can't wait to play with your FULL roster for the first time!

    ReplyDelete
  34. What part of NY are you from Mitchell? I currently live in Florida but had to spend alot of time on the phone with my parents and stuff figuring it all out. Everything in my room was ruined pretty much, so when I go home for Christmas, I'll be sleeping on the couch probably haha!

  35. does anyone know what tuesday he is referring to? does he mean today?

    ReplyDelete
  36. Let me take a stab at answering this. Umm yes today. BUT Ogie's USB drive isn't working right and I still have 20 or so players to edit for him so it WILL be released Friday. EA really screwed us over leaving out 230+ AHL players, and then not touching the German or Czech leagues was pretty low too.

    ReplyDelete
  37. cool thanks for the clarification. i figured it would be hard to finish by today with the new roster update that completely screwed up the AHL.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Petr I'm from Westchester County--Rangers territory. I don't know if you're from upstate but I assumed you meant that you were from the area around the city, especially because we've been having terrible floods the past 3 or 4 years.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I'm from faaaaaar upstate (Ogdensburg). Ottawa is the closest city to me, and my street back home floods during really heavy rain and about a month ago it rained for a week straight and screwed everything up.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Petr... What part of Florida? I'm in a suburb of Tampa - have lived here for 7 years and love it down here! Hope all comes together for you, and thanks for the roster updates. Question: will you also post the file using the Datel Xchange Transfer kit? (Hope so). Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I live in St. Petersburg and my grandparents live in Zephyrhills. I moved down here in June.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Cool... My wife and I live in Wesley Chapel, not far from Zephyrhills. Do you make it to any Lightning games? (Small world)...

    ReplyDelete
  43. I work for the Forum haha my job is pretty lame though

    ReplyDelete
  44. cant wait for this hope you will release this today! :)

    ReplyDelete
  45. It will most likely be released Sunday. EA messed up all of the goalie equipment that they supposedly updated too! Half of it is BLACK on everyone's equipment!!!

    ReplyDelete
  46. lol I understand the issues but you should really stop saying guaranteed release date. I think there have been 5 guaranteed dates. Just say it's being worked on, because I think by saying there is a specific day, and over and over it gets pushed back people are frustrated.

    ReplyDelete
  47. best thing would be to release the roster today and on sunday with updated goalie gear..

    ReplyDelete
  48. Or release it today and let us fix the gear ourselves...it's just gear

    ReplyDelete
  49. Or... we'll release it when we feel it's ready to be released?

    ReplyDelete
  50. Really looking forward to these rosters.

    The work you guys do is outstanding and without you guys all we would have is EA's crappy rosters which doesn't bear thinking about.

    Thanks again

    ReplyDelete
  51. i got a question. If your adding created players to the CHL are they gonna have a red face if we draft them? I created a guy and drafted him first overall in the 2011 draft and first game of the 11-12 season he had a bright red face. I read somewhere that this happens when you draft created guys in BeAGM. I havent tried since the patch so i dunno if this was fixed.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Not being pushy, but any news on this front regarding the release?

    ReplyDelete
  53. i'm guessin they wont be out today either?

    ReplyDelete
  54. Sorry guys, I'm still waiting on Ogie to send me the download so I can post it...

    ReplyDelete
  55. And Ryan - I've never heard of that happening. If I come across it I'll let you know!

    ReplyDelete
  56. As I've said, I'm waiting to get it from Ogie. Once I get it, I'll post it.

    ReplyDelete
  57. is he still making some changes to the rosters?

    ReplyDelete
  58. EA's new roster update comes out tomorrow. I really hope you guys don't restart with this update. . . Although I guess that's your choice.

    Looking forward to it(because there is a lot of editing to be done with EA's stuff)

    ReplyDelete
  59. Just wondering whether you will release the Rosters from the Nov. 4th update or start a new one from this latest EA update.

    ReplyDelete
  60. RYAN - How is the EA roster update? Haven't had a chance to look at it. I love this site and think it's great what they are doing, but with 2 months of guaranteed release dates, it might be too much work to have a downloadable roster. There's a site with a roster that is updated bi-weekly, but you have to pay $10.99 I'll try and find a link.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Shaun - Ogie told me I'd have it when I got home today, but I still don't and he's now told me tonight I'll have it. So hopefully tonight.

    Ryan - Both. I'm going to personally do the new one though so that it gets done long before 2 weeks from now!

    Josh - That's alot of money for an NHL roster. NCAA & FIFA maybe. We were thinking about charging a few bucks for our download but since we didn't get one out when we planned on it originally, I decided I'm not going to make you guys pay now.

    - PP

    ReplyDelete
  62. Will you be posting instructions on how to download it and how to place it on our 360's? It would help if you did because I'm pretty clueless on this stuff, thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  63. As I've stated a few times, we have a "How To" video made by Andrew that we're including in the download package. Also included in it are two programs you'll need to install in order to resign the download to your profile from ours.

    ReplyDelete
  64. just to clarify things, you will be releasing a roster for the PS3 also rite??

    ReplyDelete
  65. No. As it says on the PS3 Roster page, EA blocked the transfer of rosters on the PS3.

    ReplyDelete
  66. Though the rosters aren't up yet, I would like to thank you on behalf of everyone for the great job you guys have done! I can finally start my BAGM now! (it seems like their are multiple Ryan's on here)

    ReplyDelete
  67. Thank you Ryan. Soooooo many hours have gone into this site. And all of it for no monetary gain! We should put up a donation thing or something. Not sure if it'd be worth it though.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Ogie is sending me the update as we speak and I will be able to post it shortly after I make a few minor adjustments!

    ReplyDelete
  69. just a heads up. Any created players added to the CHL once you draft them in your BEaGM they will have a bright red face. I just tried this again after the update and it still happens.

    ReplyDelete
  70. There shouldn't be that problem with this update though right? This is based on the nov 4th update so all the CHL players should already have been in the game, am I right? If not... oh well. Red is fun.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Jesse that's right. We haven't had to add any players to the CHL because EA actually did an excellent job with the CHL rosters. The update I'll be posting tonight is based on the Nov 4th EA roster update.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Are you creating any guys who can be drafted in BEaGM? I think it is any created guy drafted to a team has a bright color face.

    ReplyDelete
  73. hey there just wondering if you're still releasing it tonight?

    ReplyDelete
  74. Just a quick question. Will this be on the home page when it is posted? Or will we have to come to this one to find it?

    ReplyDelete
  75. Has this roster update been released yet?
