Worst football game I’ve ever played

Incredibly scripted to the point where they don’t even try to hide it anymore. (Your o line will stand straight up and let the defense through if the game thinks the rating should allow it) . Every time a user goes for the pick they get an insane boost to make an unrealistic catch but when the qb throws directly at a linebacker or someone who’s not “good” they’ll force them in to a swat animation instead of giving the obvious pick. Not to mention the times when I have wide open receivers for go ahead touchdowns and the meter will turn yellow and force my receiver into sn animation where he won’t even try for the ball and just won’t catch it (even if it’s visually thrown directly at him) VERY SCRIPTED  (meaning no matter what user does the game decides when to let certain plays succeed) but probably be the last version of the game I buy since they never listen to actual gameplay feedback an just throw a few new songs on and some cool uniforms and think that makes it a good game. Also, no division 1 receiver would ever just stand in one spot when they’re covered in man. They would try to get open (not stand there and wait for the qb to tell them where to go)

    Incredibly scripted is 1000% a fact!

    Each point you mentioned is spot on.

    • O-line plays stupid when playing tier 1 teams. Your team is dumbed down to make others look better.
    • User picks - your users is pushed behind the intended target when you attempt a user pick vs attacking the ball. Ever notice that the cpu never goes for a pick when playing against Smith fron OSU or Williams from Bama? It's scripted to make those players look dominant.
    • When you see defenders go for swats vs go for INTs, you might as well quit the game. Its been prematurely determined that your team will lose. 
    • I cant count the amount of times I've had wide open WR for a go ahead or lead extended touchdown only to have a tap throw fall incomplete with the wr not even attempting to make catch or magically the qb can't hit a wide open WR. Its literally EVERY SINGLE GAME, especially in the Road to CFP..
    • Animations are WAY too long and you can't break out of them. 

    The scripting in the game feels as cheap and predictable as a free mobile download game from the app store. I can literally tell within the first series if I'm set to win or lose. More times then not if I'm playing OSU, Bama, Georgia or LSU...the script has me losing....even before kickoff.
