Summarize your bug Bug affects all football gameplay modes. The play 3-3-5 Mint - Cover 3 Buzz Match (in custom playbooks, this is called 3-3-5 Tite - Cover 3 Buzz Match) does not play match coverage despite being labeled as a match coverage play. This likely occurs because the play is incorrectly set up with Curl Flat zones for the apex defenders as opposed to Seam Flat zones.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Open any game or practice on defense using the 3-3-5 Tite playbook or a custom playbook containing the formation 3-3-5 Tite. Choose 3-3-5 Mint - Cover 3 Buzz Match (labeled 3-3-5 Tite - Cover 3 Buzz Match in custom playbooks). Pick any passing play from a 2x2 formation for the offense, such as Gun Doubles Offset. Observe in coach cam that the apex defenders have Curl Flat zone assignments, which do not play match coverage.
What happens when the bug occurs? The play incorrectly plays spot-drop zone coverage, despite being labeled a match coverage play.
What do you expect to see? The play should play match coverage.

Hopefully this is an easy thing to fix, I think the play is just set up incorrectly. 🙂

    Summarize your bug This did not happen in dynasty, it happened in practice mode. There is no option to select this mode. If, for example, you select for the CPU to "call random play from 3-4 Odd," they will glitch out on the second play specifically before reverting to normal. They will call a play from 3-4 Odd at first, then the second time use a completely random formation that could be anything, and then they revert to the instructed play call request.

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go into practice mode, ask the CPU defense to run a random play from any specific formation (FORMATION, not set -- ex. 3-3-5 Mint, not the whole group of 3-3-5), and they will do so on the first play. The second play will be completely random and not what you asked them to do. Then they will go back to the requested formation. You can try this with any formation, it will still happen.
    What happens when the bug occurs? The CPU makes a random play call disregarding the instruction to pull random plays from a specific formation.
    What do you expect to see? The CPU to follow the instructions that are set. This may be minuscule in the grand scheme of things but it is very annoying when I'm just trying to test a play a few times to see how it works vs. certain fronts. If I am doing this for a half-hour, about 5-10 minutes of this is wasted by me snapping the ball and immediately diving to the ground to skip past the random play.
