  • I don’t know what EA did, but RPO’s Bubbles on PS4 are broken. The WR will rub the bubble route but the QB will throw the ball upfield. RPO Bubbles worked perfectly fine last year. And they work on PS5. But they don’t work correctly on PS4. It’s like every time EA introduces something they ruin it by the next year. It won’t work anymore. I just don’t understand. If you throw the RPO Bubble on PS4 it’s a very risky pass. The QB throws it upfield towards the defenders while the WR is in the backfield running the bubble route. This has to be fixed. This is just so bad.

  • Just want to make sure this is covered for the patch, whenever EA decides to make one.... but the bubble screens no matter the formation are broken. The QB leads the WR too far upfield to get a run after catch without running into a blocker or defender. Still waiting on that patch...

    Summarize your bug When running rpo bubble screen plays the receiver on the bubble screen will run up field looking for the pass rather than following his route and sitting behind the blockers waiting for the ball.
    How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just run any rpo bubble screen play and throw it to the guy on the bubble
    What happens when the bug occurs? Pass is thrown up about 5 yards rather than it being a bubble screen
    What do you expect to see? The ball being thrown back behind the blockers
