Genuinely the worst sports game I’ve ever played, they somehow made it worse than last year and have had to update it several times to try to fix the issues but it hasn’t fixed a thing.
1.) qb inaccuracy - you could have the best qb in the game (99 everything) and you will still throw orange passes with your feet set and no pressure because the game decided you were going to
2.) wr drops - if accuracy wasn’t enough, the drops in this game are incredible. They added an animation where if your wr has to jump for the ball (which is most of the time because of the inaccuracy of the qb) and they are hit in the back, they will legit reverse dunk the football behind them as if they were in an NBA game. Drives me crazy and I honestly couldn’t tell you a time in the history of football where someone has done that.
3.) dropped picks - same thing as last year (although they said they fixed it…they did not)
4.) stadium pulse is broken - I understand the need to give home field advantage in some aspect, but the fact that I can’t see the buttons of my receivers when I’m looking right at them is the worst feature imaginable, not to mention the fact that you can’t audible routes, even though in college there are hand signals for that purpose.
5.) Blocking - where do I begin. The blocking in this game ACROSS THE BOARD is atrocious. Running the ball? Impossible. CPU linebackers blitz the gap like each of em are Luke kuechly and the d line shrugs your offensive linemen off like they’re children. And you better not accidentally press the right trigger while you’re in the backfield because that tells everyone blocking to stop and run downfield to no one. This is potentially the worst part of the game and it drives me crazy.
6.) RTG is unplayable - the moments system was the worst decision anyone made regarding this part of the game. If you don’t complete each moment you might as well get ready to ride the bench at kennesaw state, because one missed moment will take you from a 5 star to a 3 star. The running back in this mode’s field vision is that of a 5 year old who just put pads on for the first time, and he’ll juke as slow as possible behind the line of scrimmage, faking out no one and taking a loss every. Single. Time.
I’m warning you, save your money, boycott this game. We deserve better than EA funneling the same garbage out every single year and somehow making it stink worse.
