I already have a thread about how the game constantly freezes, stutters and drops frames. He had me change my DNS (not sure what that would have to do with anything but I did it), didn't work, said he'd talk to the team. IOW,  "oh well, sorry dude". There were numerous other bugs, but since I knew a patch was coming, I figured, wait and see if the patch fixes them.
Nope. The stutter/freezing is worse than ever. My QB continually quick throws the ball to my TE in certain formations immediately after the snap, (I am not spamming hike; it's only 2 formations, but ones I use a lot. Or, would like to ....) When the CPU runs hurry up offense, my coverage gets completely borked, with guys assigned on the other side of the field, and my audible button won't work; the CPU snaps so fast I can't fix it. Instant TD. (This one is really pissing me off, cost me a few solo battles.) The kick meter either stutters, or doesn't show up at all. Me and my buddy like to play squads, but just starting the session is an adventure in itself, as the game freezes at the loading screen. Which has been happening since the start of M20, btw. As to whether or not the "shotgun bug" is still in squads is unknown because, well, we can't start the game. (we gave up a month into M20, and just played Far Cry instead, at least that works. Were hoping to start again with M21. Nope, we're back to Far Cry). I won't even try online h2h, until the disconnects and desyncs are fixed. I could go on.
These problems are all well known, reported all over the place, and while I'm not trying to come across as berating, I understand that it's not intentional; but I'm also really exasperated with this game. It's pretty much unplayable at this point. How can we get this game to just work? I just want to load a game, and play it. No stutters, no freezes, no bugs. Just a working game. That's it. Can this happen?
This is the second time I submitted this. First time spit back an error. Seems fitting.

    Summarize your bug when CPU is in hurry up, coverage is completely broken, assignments all over the place, no time to adjust

    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? play a 2 minute drill on defense in solo battles
    What happens when the bug occurs? the CPU scores an easy TD
    What do you expect to see? My defense lined up and assigned to the proper players, or at least guys on the same side of the field. Or time to adjust. Or something. Not this.

    Whenever the CPU goes into hurry up (particularly in solo battles), my defense goes completely bonkers, lining up and assigned to players on the other side of the field. There is no time to adjust, and the CPU quick throws for a lot of easy touchdowns this way. Very annoying. This has been happening since day 1. I know you just released a patch, this was not fixed, though now my receivers have had their hands replaced by concrete blocks, but I'll assume you are aware of this and are fixing it. Would be nice to address this hurry up defense issue, and be able to play hurry up defense at some point. There are still many other bugs, but one thing at a time.
    OTOH, my game doesn't glitch or stutter anymore, so that's cool.
