College football 25 bugs after patch
I have a few major problems with the offense vs defense gameplay.
1. There are rarely if any pass interference calls on the defense. I’ll have my wide receivers get hit when the ball is in the air before they can catch the ball or they gets held up by a defender when the ball leaves the QB’s hands. And even someone who is brand new to the game’s rules knows that is not legal in real life. So why is it in the game. It takes the realism out of the game and is frustrating to experience.
2. The catch rate for receivers is beyond laughable. Wide receivers have two maybe three jobs on the field. If they are not blocking the two major jobs are to run the routes and CATCH THE FOOTBALL. I’ll have receivers out run or beat out the CB’s or safeties giving them a window to catch the football. And even though the ball gets thrown perfectly so they can catch the ball. It’s automatically dropped or not even attempted to be caught when the defender hardly taps the player, catches up to them, or even tackles them after they catch the ball. For the number of drops or lack of securing the ball after the catch that I’ve experienced in the game is not realistic. Because I’ve seen decent college wide receivers in real life not drop or secure the ball nearly as much as top rated wide receivers in the game does. I don’t want every throw to be a success because that’s not realistic either. I know in real life there are some hits that players do drop the ball or the ball just bounces out of their hands. No one is perfect. However there is a middle ground that the game is failing to capitalize in this area.
3. the O-line is absolutely frustrating at the moment. I’ll have one of the top O-lines in the game act like they have skates on their feet when they play against a 1 or 2 star program teams who don’t have a really good D-line. I get that people mess up or lose their footing. But why is it that my O-line is getting beat by lower ranked D-line than a more top ranked D-line. Like I would understand if I were Bama going up against Georgia and my O-line gets beat by Georgia’s D-line. That makes sense to me. But being Bama and my O-line gets beat out by a team like Troy or UAB is not realistic. Make the ratings mater.
And my final bug that I found was the scoreboard disappear after I check the routes again.
