Do me a favor and articulate a post stating your exact problem with the game.

Jesus Christ, dude. . .

I'll just quote all my posts in this thread, where I have done just that.

Just for you, bruh:

I wish DB's could play man. I wish LB's couldn't jump 6 feet in the air, intercepting a pass. I wish DL didn't intercept so many passes.

I wish collision detection understands that DB's can't really phase through WR's to intercept passes.

I wish opposing QB's would tuck and run after a few seconds, if the play breaks down.

I wish the OL blocking was more realistic. . .rarely giving a QB 10 seconds to throw, regardless of competition. Bama can't block Kent state that long on every play.

If you are a QB/WR, you get nothing but running plays called. . .opposite for RB's.

They fixed zone coverage, somewhat. That's it.

Man coverage is worse.

Everything else is the same. Still have LB's with 8-foot verts, DB's that can phase through WR's, QB logic is nonsensical, OL can lock up the DL all day, rubber-band AI, WR's that inexplicably peel off of routes with the ball in the air, QB throwing directly at a DB not even close to the WR you selected. . .

And that's just gameplay problems. I used to be really good at the game, because I would account for these flaws when I played.

And none of those problems are new problems. You can find complaints about the above issues on the EA forums going back to 2008, at a minimum.

Db's do play man, almost to good sometimes. I'd like to see you cover someone who runs a 4.3 by yourself with no help. GOODLUCK. Every CB isn't Revis buddy.

That's a valid argument there, but it does not happen very often.

We have discussed this already...which makes all of your arguments a little less valid but I will continue

Once again that rarely happens, and I get pressure a good bit in this game. Just ask anyone on the gaming board. I'm sure they get pressure as well.

Man coverage worse....
, Now there are sometimes alignment issues in certain formations. I used to scream about lb's as well but next time you do watch the replay closely and realize you attempted to throw a bullet pass over his head. Not a very high jump.

I disagree.

They peel off routes, and run at absurd distances from the WR. And nobody bites on pump fakes. . .unless you are playing a live opponent.

Happens more often than not in the red zone.

No, you objected, I countered. The argument is still valid.

If I am playing Bama, as an example, against Kent State. . .I can snap the ball and damn near stand there for 10 seconds before looking for an open receiver.

They do keep "fixing it", making it more of a drag. . .slower. . .and more tedious.

Because it is realistic that a team captain gets to call games?

That was a band-aid, not a fix.

It was insulting.

with his back turned, running away from the path of the ball. . .stops, warps back to the spot. . .incredible vert. . .INT or batted pass.

shite happens 3-4 times every game.

And a bullet pass to a spot 30 yards down field, is not going to be an easy jump for a LB 5-10 yards down field.

My DB's play man very well most of the time. Unless playing JAE The LB's don't actually jump, they stick their arms up, nice try though. DL rarely intercepts me unless it's off a ridiculous swat that goes straight up.

Doesn't happen all that often. If all you're throwing is curl routes you will run into this more often. Pick different plays.

They do. All the time in fact, I doubt you play on heisman because this is one of the most frustrating things about the game, sometimes they tuck and run on a designed pass play right off the bat, get off rookie mode and you'll find out. James Franklin from Mizzou is the worst offender.

I get great pressure by using the DT, ask JAE. I ate his offensive line up the other day with 86 overall undersized DT when his OL averages a 93ish rating.

It's not bad at all, gotta work for a good team. Recruiting in real life takes time, you want realism, yet bitch about something that is fairly accurate. It technically should take longer to do. Get over it.

Happens all the time in real life, right? Think PP7. Realistic aspect that you bitch about.

Deal with it. Like I said, if you don't like it don't play it.






Overall, most of your points are misguided. It sounds like you're butthurt because you suck at the lowest level of difficulty. I know I'm not the best at this game, and that some things could make it so much better. Go hang out on the rant where you belong. TIA.

Hurt my feelings? I basically gave my opinion and gave you examples of where you are wrong and I am right, but go ahead and deflect. I think you suck because the problems you are having come from someone that doesn't know how to play the game.

I bet you were good you could beat anybody here right?

Gaming board throwdown!

So the three most popular games are not good enough? Just do what you been saying and not buy them. you will pu EA out of business in no time.

I was waiting for someone to bring that up

I'll jump in and say that after the patches and adjusting the sliders, I'm pretty damn pleased with the game. You say you read OperationSports "religiously," so try implementing some of the sliders for Heisman levels.

DBs do play man and they play it well. I've had many DBs knock away passes or tackle a guy right when the ball gets there. Just because your corner is higher rated doesn't mean he can't get beat.

With the new sliders, LBs and DL do not intercept or swat passes nearly as much. In fact, you see several passes going over their heads like in a real game.

Collision detection is most likely one of the most difficult programming pieces. If a few blips here and there turns you off, so be it.

Opposing QBs run and scramble like crazy since the new patch. Try it.

OL blocking is also pretty realistic since the new patch and adjusted sliders. 3-4 sacks a game is pretty damn normal. I typically get that amount plus numerous rushes and knockdowns.

Recruiting in dynasty is a drag? You want the game to be realistic but then you say recruiting is a drag? How much time do you think coaches spend evaluating players and recruiting? Hell, I wish there was more to recruiting, like videos of the prospect, stats to high school seasons, actual combine-like numbers, etc.
