The only position worth playing in RTG is QB right now because of this. Had the same thing happen with a wr I made. Won't do it again until they patch it. It happened right before bowl season my 2nd year. Dropped from wr1 to wr4 I worked back up to wr2 .before the playoff but we lost when i barely got to play. Went to next season and was dropped to wr5 lol. Not to mention I was subbed out every other play no.matter what I was or what I did the previous play.

Couple other issues...as qb at some point I should be able to at least call audible at the line(maxed out coach trust). Also the stadium pulse is way too much when playing higher than varsity. It's close to being a very good feature but it's too much...in no real world does the whole offense forget what to do on every single play, that's just unrealistic. What is the point of not being able to know who receivers even are. Randomly changing buttons for a receiver when you already made it so we can't see them doesn't make sense. On top of not being able to change their routes. At the least if I run the same play every game the x receiver should be x no matter what smh. Can't just start throwing random shyt like that out there. It's close but way off until they fix that type of shyt. Smh soory for the rant. That being said still having alot of fun with this game. Those the only 2 things I have an issue with.
It's a tricky mechanic.

They want to simulate the impact of "being rattled" but it's hard to do that when the characters on screen are rattled but the person holding the controller is calm.

What makes sense would be the inability to switch up plays (you can only check into 1 other play instead of multiple)....no hot routes unless both the QB and designated receiver are, let's say, 80 OVR or higher...maybe have 80+ Awareness rating too. Adjustments to the line, same idea..guys with higher ratings are fine but lower rated linemen would make more mistakes in high leverage situations at hostile environments.

Crazy after all the waiting and hype they put out some shyt that's inferior to the previous versions from 10-15 years ago.

All those cac 5 star skill position recruits. :scust:

Sending this trash back for a refund. :ahh:

By the way I gotta keep it real...after about a week of play this is definitely a madden reskin :mjlol: nikkas lied they ass off talking about built from scratch....now granted the passing system is a new feature...but you can tell this is the same gameplay by the way the same silly issues that plague madden plaguing this

1.Quality Olineman completely getting lost on assignments
2. Blockers running up field and not touching anyone at all... Just blocking air
3. CPU QB's all playing at Marino level regardless of overall
4. DBs watching the ball being thrown without breaking on the reciever or the ball
5. DBS randomly changing the pursuit angle of the receiver so the cpu is allowed more separation
6. Ratings not really mattering overall
7. Low penalties unless you turn them way up in sliders
8. CPU AI letting you spam plays without adjusting or having any general concept about play calling redundancy
9.Backfield players running and getting stuck on linemen when trying to run route
10. Blockers running backward and into you

There's there's as well but these are the main ones that I noticed this week...also the defense on this is abhorrent just won a nasty 76-66 game against Arizona.... Way too cartoonish :francis:

I haven’t played a football game in years and feel this. I love the nostalgia of college football and everything, but you can tell this is pretty bare bones.

Presentation is also really lackluster, menus etc, every game at home as the same animations/pregame package (if I see that leprechaun square up again we gonna fight :birdman:) the fans all look the same, move the same. Cheerleaders look and move the same, and the graphics are straight cheeks after the first row of fans :mjlol:

Every stadium has the same pattern on their jumbotron

Announcers keep track of yearly commentary but not year over year. If there’s a repeat champion it doesn’t matter

Field depth seems to be way off on special teams. Punt and kickoff defenders get down way faster than returners.


Animations galore and not a real physics engine that’s not unrealistic (arms and legs bending to the point where they would break)

Theres more for sure. I haven’t touched RTG so I’m sure with multiple position options that’ll be dope but otherwise the best part of the game is that there is a college option to play football :manny:

:dead:some people paid $100 for this game. And brehs thought we were hating prior to release when some of us said EA couldn't be trusted and to :hubie:pump the brakes on expectations for this game. I'll get this when it's <$20.

Got burnt with madden one to many times, learned my lesson

Agreed ong .. I thought after the 1st time I heard it I might hear a different song or something. That would've been better. They could've rotated through random trap instrumentals from YouTube producers or something.
That would take them caring about details …but it’s EA …so .. :francis:

This has really been killing me lately…every recruiting class filled with elite 4 and 5 star rated CAC CBs WRs and RBs ….and they not even some Jon B type cacs that you can imagine playing at that level ….theyre the square looking science teacher types who would NEVER touch elite status in any high school rankings at those positions …l they have to allow us to create prospects in a patch or at the very least edit faces man :francis: This shyt is ridiculous right now

EA wants us nostalgia buyers MONEY, but they want the younger 17-18 yr old buyers to be the new base. The people who are just playing this series for the first time bc it's their first college game. This new base will be the group who doesn't question/complain player editing bc they never played the old games. They won't question the standard things that were in the game previously bc they have never played before. These issues for us, will be normal for them.
