I wanna know how after so many updates this game is still such crap. Nothing works the way it should, it's all just exploiting in game glitches and nothing like a football simulation. How tf is it that the second you touch the sprint button you lose all momentum moving forward as a ball carrier? Or how your running through an open hole with a power running back and get dragged down by absolutely ridiculous arm tackles. Zone coverage is still a complete mess. Catching/dropping passes makes 0 sense, you get guys catching balls when they're being train wrecked but a defender 3ft behind you chasing you will make you drop the ball everytime. Switching players is the worst it's ever been seemingly switching you to every player except the player capable of making the play, if it even switches you at all, half the time the game just decides to not do it or is putting me on a player off screen and if that's the case why? In franchise whenever a player is given a goal like get 150 yds, that player will get injured first quarter 50% of the time, like 30% to actually finish the game healthy. Probably due to a torn F'ing Labrum which happens like 5 times a game. I had 5 O lineman in 1 game tear their Labrum, like wtf? I won't even start with menu issues like the stupid draft board slide player here and there just never leaving the screen, even if you quit franchise. It's just such a crap game overall. Like what's up with everyone deciding they need to all swap assignments to literally the other side of the field when the offense is in hurry up guaranteeing you get torched somewhere, or my LB deciding to QB spy instead of playing the tight end man to man like he's supposed to. Or why when someone gets hurt and you say don't sub them back in they get subbed in anyways? I just don't understand how this game can be this bad. I know there is literally no competition but the game used to have integrity and wanted to try and be real anymore it's like playing a glitchy version of NFL blitz that's less fun than any sports game I've ever played. It's so * I was wiping up the floor against the computer the other day and not even enjoying it because the game just couldn't function properly. Challenging plays is so god awful, I challenged a catch the game ruled legal where the player who caught it was 100% out of bounds, not a foot or a toe so like a leg, he was 100 outside the field of play. Game says catch, I challenge, they check to see if he was possession lol, and the call stands. It's important to note he did not get tackled on the play because he was ruled down after catching it because he was out of bounds lol. It's mind numbing to try and even get through a single game because it is so * winning isn't even fun. Hopefully this thing runs better when it updates generations cause right now I wish I just had my money back lol

Well I see it's at least consistent. I have an X factor RB and when I play games the game doesn't recognize his Xfactor status he's just a gold star champ and can't get in the zone. Super cool. This whole game just functions like a middle school science project
- WrathOfHades856 years agoSeasoned Ace@theBAT1181 I completely agree. This game is like a train wreck, that's taking place over a ravine. Each year, another one of the cars falls off the track, which pulls the engine (EA Sports) a little further back. Eventually that final car will fall and drag EA down, into the depths of that ravine. Good news, for us, is that when that happens another company will take over and actually make a game people want to play.

I will gladly support that other company...
