Palms match is broken

Palms does not work properly Vs 3 verticals from the same side.

The Cone/Bracket that the Defenses is using to leverage vs the #2 and 3 receivers does not work properly of both 2 and have vertical routes. The Quarter flat who would then be assigned to carry #2 all the way down field does not do it.He releases his assignment at 20 yards to cover nothing, there is no passing off, and the receiver is allowed a TD with 10 yards of separation. The Quarter Flat player should be sticking in underneath coverage (yes, he would still technically be getting beat)  instead of this.This is an issue exclusive to “next gen” editions of Madden 24. This worked properly in Madden 23, so I have faith that you will know what to do. Thank you!!!

linked below is video proof of concept (this also applies to cover 6 because it uses Palms Match rules vs  trips, both are equally broken)

  • I’m glad to have seen this get a bit of a fix but there are still a few fundamental broken things with cover 4 match coverages in terms of the box check, which is a problem that Stems in all of the non zone drop coverages, they do not pass off scissor/ switch combinations at all, especially in box which leads to massive coverage busts, across the game. Also, there was a point in time where cloud flats were good at gaining depth and vertical hooks actually kept inside leverage at all costs, but that went out of the window within a month of launch (cover 2 was REALLY good to start the year and now it’s not truly usable). Vertical hooks aren’t matching vertical consistently either, btw (also why did Cover 2 sink disappear completely As a play call? It’s not even in the game anymore…). Curl flats also aren’t re-routing, neither are Quarter flats or seam flats when in press with receivers (these zones should still chuck the WR even in match because they have safety help)
