I really dont do this unless the game makes me mad, but more times than not when the opposing team kicks a PAT or FG if I get in the 3-4 and do nothing the Kicker will shank the kick. Is it me or is this happening to others? Like I said it wont do it EVERY time, but I'd say 60-70% of the time it does.

that hasn't happened to me, but my buddy chris was playing mine the other day and he scored a touchdown, kicked the xp, and then the other team kicked the ball to him. they kicked an onside kick and recovered it. then later in the game, he punted the ball (called a fair catch on their 35ish), the opposing team got called for holding and they spotted the ball on his 20 yard line.

I've had the dreaded non-handoff glitch happen where the QB is supposed to hand off but he doesnt and just stands there waiting with the ball in his hands waiting to get creamed. Boy talk about throwing out some cuss words!

yeah. it's kinda weird. i still think it's a pretty good game even with the weird glitches. lol
I think of it like an Easter Egg.

The other night I threw a catch-and-run TD to Marquis Maze, and as he was crossing the goal line, he disappeared. The broadcast cam jumped away, and showed him standing out in open field somewhere with no one around him, while the ball flopped around in his hand. A second later, he appeared in the end zone again, and the TD celebration animations started.

NICE! i guess it has a few more flaws than the previous years. i guess that should be expected with a complete reboot pretty much.

When I played Florida Brantley faked the handoff (play action) and took the ball 65 yards (75 if you count the end zone) for a safety. I laughed until it happened to me a couple days later. I was hitting every button I could to get him to throw the ball.

Everytime the computer gets the dreaded PA "run-backwards" I kick on the jets of the DT to try and get that -50yd sack. I think I've only got it once. The QB usually gets the pass off and sometimes completes it, talk about getting PO'd....

The game has gone back to its roots, shotgun, run backwards and throw it deep. My son kills me with it. Also use the I formation, it is unstoppable.

Has anyone had a glitch when kicking PAT's? I have had the camera shift to a punt kick off style 2 or 3 times instead of showing the kicker lined up. It hasn't made me miss but it is annoying to not be able to see where you are kicking!

I had one last week when I was in practice mode. I audibled to a different play, and my receivers on the right side went up field about 20 yards before the ball was snapped.

I used to get this a lot when kicking PATs. Either the camera looks like its on the opposite 40 or shifts to the left or the right. Thats never made me miss either. Also, when punting, I've had the punter not show up along with the direction arrow, but the power meter is still there. I have to call a time out and re-call the play to fix it...


And then I have a question for yall. Are yall still having the PA issues? I thought there was an update that fixed it a couple weeks back. I haven't seen it happen (to me or anyone else, computer included) for a while.

I had a new one the other night that HIGHLY ticked me off. I was playing a side dynasty with Navy and I was playing someone I forget who it was. Well they fumbled (this was the START of the 2nd half, 5:00 quarters) and nobody could pick the ball up. Everyone just huddled around like rugby and couldnt pick it up. I tried everything from diving to pushing guys out of the way and nothing worked. I was winning so I said screw it if it stayed like this time would run out and I'd win.

Dumb decision.

After the clock hit all zero's in the 2nd half we were STILL trying to get ahold of the ball. I had to just quit the game altogether. I promise you I spent over 30 minutes trying to catch this greased pig and never did. Anyone else have this happen to you?

Are there any patches out there for the game yet? I dont check the EA boards and stuff so I'm dumb when it comes to that. I never play online anymore and just do offline dynasties.
