I made a post about this already but have received no feedback. Is anyone else having issues with the defensive controls not working? If I try and use a swim move (A or D keys) it's just switching players. It does work as it should in the tutorial but not in UT or play now. It's quite frustrating to not be able to control the defense.
I’ve had defenders, not swatting passes or going out passes in the push button
I have the same exact problems. And if you notice in key controls (PC) "Defense Engaged", Speed rush and switch player are both assigned mid-mouse button or F key.
That's not gonna work very well for anyone.
And that's also what they call "screwing up a glass of water".
Playing from the D-Line is almost totally broken. It's 90% luck depending on whether the other linemen (AI) do their part or an O-Lineman fails.
Can't really play that way if that's what someone likes doing.
It's preferrable that they fix the longstanding bugs, contrasting rules/structure (compared to real NFL) and incomplete rosters, than make changes that compound problems that make it difficult to enjoy the game this go-around.
New changes aren't cutting it. As I said, improving the previous existing game would've been the smart move.
They should've saved face by delaying the release to fix these, instead of stringing us along, waiting for needed fixes that shouldn't have made it out of development/QA in the first place.
I have the same issue. Any luck finding solution?
I was hoping the last update would have a fix and its still not working.
I just downloaded Madden 26 today to start playing and I also have this bug. So disappointed! I've tried everything I could find on YouTube and Reddit and nothing resolved it for me. I just got off chat with live support and the agent said they would escalate to the right team. Fingers crossed.
Thanks for bringing this to their attention. I was just trying to play it just now and I just can't without controlling the defense.
