EA knew it wouldn’t please everyone. I’m sure it’ll get better. My only solid complaint is how injuries occur. Milroe getting sacked and trucked numerous times and then breaking off a 45 yard run. Gimmie a break. Cause WHEN I do that ITS LIKE GETTING HIT FROM JERMAINE FROM PRISON BLOCK C.

Yeah, the injuries are suspect. My HB can’t play for a series because he’s injured and the risk of serious injury becomes high. Next series, he’s fine. A quarter later, he’s injured again. Another series later and he’s fine. Ask me if I want to take him out, but put him back in without my consent? What the hell is going on with the training staff?

So, the patch from the other day broke a few things.

Half the time when I thit right trigger my play art doesn't come up.

Very annoying especially on defense, it's hard to tell if my adjustments went in or not.

I had a kill shot w/ Pearce on Milroe last night. Pierce just bounced off of him and Milroe threw an absolute dart on a flag route for 25 yards on 3rd and 20. Milroe is way too good in this game. He’s not that good in real life.

I have that same problem. There's some kinks that need to be worked out in future patches.

The roughing the kicker is ridiculous in this game so far. Yesterday I had two games both blown after having a stop on downs. Nothing worse than being excited that you made a good defensive stand only to have the cpu controller player on your team get roughing the kicker and give them their drive back.

Yeah, Meat Chicken's QB is a lot like that too. It wasn't unusual for all 4 of my DL to rubber bounce off of him in the pocket, then he takes off for 15 yards for a 1st down. I also hate it when they slide, I want to at least get a good hit on them. And as many times as I've sacked a QB, only one time have I knocked one out of the game.

Had the same thing happen w/ him too. At least he’s like 235-240.

It has to do with whatever ability they gave him. It allows him to break sacks in the pocket easier.

Just won the NC in my 2nd year with ECU, with an 81 overall squad. Played 91 overall Bama in the semi final, they threw 5 picks. This game has the same problem as Madden where All-American isn't enough of a challenge, but Heisman is just annoying and gives the CPU a crazy advantage.

Have witnessed some insane picks in a couple of my recent online game. Against UF I run a PA pass and have squirrel running an angled drag route across the middle. He’s at least 10 yards beyond the LB sitting in his zone yet with his 87.75” vertical leap jettisons and picks it off. Another game I’m playing UGA. I forget the actual play but I’m running 4 wide. The guy I was looking to go to was covered but I see Brazzell streaking down the sideline wide open. He easily has 5 yards on the defender so I lay it out there thinking this is an easy td. Nope, guy somehow is running in man coverage trailing the defender but able to make an astonishing leap to pick the ball off. All you can do is laugh it off. They always find ways to screw things up whether it’s with player ratings or general gameplay. It is what it is.

Played a team earlier that predominantly ran the option. Amazing how the qb can make perfect pitches wrapped up by two guys or have it bounce off of defenders into the rb breadbasket. I mean the qb is dead to rights and makes an off the screen perfect pitch. Just got to laugh.

Found another EA faux pa. Was playing bama online and it went to OT. We both scored in the first OT to send it to double OT. He got the ball first and threw a pick. I play it somewhat safe and try to set up a fg only to find out it won’t let me kick a fg. I know you have to go for 2 after a td starting in the 2nd OT but I didn’t know you couldn’t kick a fg. Anyway I converted a 4th and 5 and scored a couple plays later to when but this is just another irritating bug.

I know people want a patch, but I don't like it. There are some things that need tweaked for sure but typically they break more than they fix.

Makes a man question how much they know about what they’re doing.. Who are they listening to when they identify problems? They aren’t listening to people like us.

I kept getting error messages while trying to create my schedule yesterday. That wasn’t a problem when I played last week.

I think it's just a programming thing.
These games take so many lines of code, that you never know how something will react with one little change.
EA can do better, and there are big things they let go that I think is just lazy on their part, but I can't get mad at them for little things because I know coding is a complicated thing.

No patch notes yet, but what twitter has found so far is underwhelming. 5 tiers instead of 3 in road to the playoffs now, still can’t edit random generated player numbers, platinum ability icon updates to be more distinguishable. CFP bracket updated in RTG and Dynasty. Some new uniforms added, haven’t seen a full list, KU new stadium is in. Texas State stadium is fixed, and team builder color corrections.Vols black pants fixed, no new unis for us though.

Edit: further updates, FCS teams nerfed. Reports that sim logic and ranking are fixed, but unconfirmed. Schedule visit bug for recruits has been fixed.
