Superstar Mode Hurry-Up Offense Bug – Locked in Spike Formation With No Controls

I want to report a major gameplay issue in Madden 26 Superstar Mode that affects the hurry-up offense. When running a hurry-up with no timeouts remaining, the game automatically puts my QB into the spike formation — but then completely locks out all controls.

When this happens:

• I cannot snap the ball
• I cannot audible
• I cannot change the play
• I cannot motion players
• I cannot spike the ball
• I cannot run a normal play
• The play clock and game clock continue running
• The drive usually ends because I’m stuck and can’t take any action

This effectively breaks the two-minute offense and prevents realistic late-game situations. It’s especially frustrating in Superstar Mode where every drive impacts stats, progression, and game results.

Why this is a problem:

• The QB is frozen in spike formation with no ability to snap or run the play
• Players lose control during the most important moments of the game
• This can cost wins, playoff berths, and statistical milestones
• It prevents realistic football strategy in hurry-up situations
• It happens consistently whenever you have no timeouts remaining

Requested Fix:

Please update the Superstar logic so that:

• The QB can snap the ball in spike formation
• Or, the game does not force spike formation unless the user chooses it
• Hurry-up offense works the same way it does in Play Now or Franchise
• The player always maintains control of audibles, snaps, and play selection

This is a core gameplay issue that directly affects the flow and realism of Superstar Mode, and fixing it would greatly improve end-of-game scenarios.

Thank you for reviewing this issue.
