Is the a plan to fix the glitch in Madden 23 for player lock kick

Product: Madden NFL 23

Summarize your bug When the ball is kicked or punted to your player, the camera reverses and looks directly at your players face while you run. You can't see the field of players coming to tackle you.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Create a player that does kick/punt returns in Franchise Mode, make sure player lock is on. In a game, try to do a kick/punt return.
What happens when the bug occurs? You can't see the field of play when you are starting to run with the ball, you have to try and rotate the camera around but by the time you can the defense is tackling you.
What do you expect to see? The camera view should be behind your player before he receives the kick giving you time to plan how you want to run against the kicking team.

Kick and punt returns in the locked player mode are unplayable.  You cannot see where you are going or who is coming to tackle you.  Plus you have to press the joystick in the direction the camera is positioned so as it rotates your guy is moving in a weird pattern and messing up your return.

    This glitch/bug also affects kickoffs. You can't see the kick meter so it is impossible to make a proper kick. And I've been unable to change the camera at all on kick coverage.

    Oh come on now EA, are you just not doing QA anymore? This ruins a fairly big part of the game. Kickoffs is now a blind game as you can't see the kickoff meter (why would I control that btw, being a CB that's running down the field).

    And returns are horrible.

    You are charging way too much to be making these kinds of mistakes.

    @CPFAN1978 Just bought this game and it’s the first problem that jumps out. Punt returns are horrendous because of camera angle

    I found a fix for this problem. Change your settings from performance to image preservation. Start a game, kickoff, then quit. Now go back to performance. Now I can kick at 100% again.
