Update to YSFE 2012 this morning - Edit Profile | Forums

[AuntieParticle]

After receiving an update to YSFE 2012 this morning I noticed the I could enter weight, height, gender and age under "Edit Profile" within the game. I don't recall seeing that before.

I think this update may be effecting calorie count as well. Mine suddenly became very low until I entered my appropriate spects. They imporved somewhat afterward.

Thanks Nano Particle, this really helps the calorue count.

I'm not sure why Ubisoft didn't tell us about this new feature!?!

Finally!

Jeahh, i mailed with the Support for over a week now.. and now its fixed??

This is great!


(Sadly i'm sick.. and can't test it.. meh)

Don't get too excited! I entered my correct weight (182 pounds) and the calorie counting is still way, way off. If you go for the maximum (I think it's about 440 pounds) it gets closer, but even then it's below what I would be burning. I currently estimate that the game is returning 25% of the correct count in most workout exercises.

However, I'm leaving my proper weight in because I am a foolish optimist and I'd like to believe that because Ubisoft actually care about their customers they will fix the problem soon. However, I would suggest that the developers actually employ a proper sports scientist consultant rather than getting their "facts" from their mates down the local pub. If they have employed real consultants then we need to know which university they are affiliated with in case any of us live in the area and were thinking of paying to send our kids there to study sports science.

But, trifid73, you're absolutely right. Why haven't we been informed by Ubisoft on the official forums about the new feature and the changes that the 2nd patch has introduced?

Thanks, NanoParticle, for pointing it out to us.

Same for me I entered my information and with about a 73% in the first boot camp work out. I went from 14 calories burned to 16 calories burned.

Well, I do see that they mentioned it on their YSFE 2012 Facebook page yesterday. Of course that was well after I, a simple user, posted it here. And after lots of folks had a meltdown about the dramatic dip in calorie counts. It would certainly be nice to receive announcements before or at least shortly after major stuff is changed.

Great news! Does it mean they can improve YSFE with updates? Where can I find bug/request list to add my comments?
