The Worst Blocking Logic in Any Football Game ever Developed!!

Question

Is the game enjoyable? Yes, mostly because it feels different than Madden..however, when your game feels more broken at launch than a Madden release, you know something is wrong, ESPECIALLY for a game that's been in development for at least 5 years.

The blocking, is, god, awful..I mean it is the worst blocking logic I have ever witnessed and I survived all Maddens 15-24, and I can confidently say, the blocking in this game, specifically pass blocking, is the worst it has ever been. And we're in 2024..maximum football 2019 has better blocking logic than this game..this is ridiculous. Any immersion I've had in my dynasty was completely ruined when calling a pass play.

Not to mention the crazy upsets that would never happen in real life, not to mention that any hit a fcs played takes they get injured, but somehow their backup comes in and plays like the second coming of christ, and certainly not to mention the awful presentation when it comes to pay by play cuts, not even allowing the broadcast team to finish a sentence.

There's life in this game. You had 5 years, to make sure that this launch wasn't TERRIBLE. it's beyond that for me... You might as well should have just released the game.last year. I mean, this is ridiculous.. there's so many things wrong with this game yet we can't even get the smallest of issues fixed with this company. I don't know what to say. I'm at a loss for a words..here's a link of just one of the many instances I've had in this game vs Midwest FCS.

@ScoperBlitz Said I'd never buy EA sports football games again but I said maybe they won't use the Madden logic and team on this.

I actually hate this game right now so I know I'll never buy one again. I wish I'd bought the disc version so I could sell it for 30 bucks. Most likely will return the PS5 I just bought for it. The blocking makes zero sense. Receivers can't even break before 2 rushers hit the QB.

Soo much needs to be fixed with the first title update. This is a fun game to a point but it's broken for sure. This is definitely the beta test phase. Pass blocking is certainly the worst it has ever been in a football game... Worse than 20/21 before the update... My qb cant even get his full drop in without getting hit or sacked. I'm also playing on heisman, AND I changed sliders to try and increase pass blocking sliders. I might just sswitch back to all american honestly. Heisman isnt even fun tbh...

Sorry to tell you, this game is just as bad as Madden. Let's not sugarcoat this games flaws. It's not enjoyable and it revolved around you finding exploits to be beat CPU or flaws in game code to beat H2H on plays. The dynasty mode is ugly and development didn't much effort in it. Just look to how CPU logic recruits and serious holes in it.

The congratulations screen in winning in CFP, absolute lazy. Let's not forget the game was so bad that EA forgot to fix custom scheduling that caused game breaking bug.

EA won't come here to defend it, but sure as well get a random EA moderator to show up and give a very customer centric remark. I forgot to mention how this group of developers managed to break sim engine somehow.

I think the wear and tear is even crippled with bugs, why would your guy go down to -19 in stats then all of a sudden have a jolt of energy like Energizer bunny.

EA, fans will tell you that you got some work to do. But don't expect EA put any work in as long as someone is buying this shovelware.

@Mareec3&nbsp;for me, nostalgia is the only fun thing about it currently. I, too, have been playing on Heisman, adjusted the sliders so many times I don’t even notice a difference anymore. The thing is, once I switched to Heisman mode, it didn’t matter what difficulty setting, what sliders I adjusted, each mode was more broken than before. Playing the CPU in any mode now is honestly like being 7 years old, lining up against the Heisman trophy winner.&nbsp;
