View Full Version : Typical EA bullshit.

It's not like I'm cheesing the game and asking for the robo-QB or fuck-you comeback code that we all know is in the game. But I'm sick of seeing this kind of bullshit play from my SIM results. This isn't the first time i've seen this, it's at least the third. Look at this picture and tell me what stands out -
http://im1.shutterfly.com/media/47a1d611b3127ccefda9e706037400000030O00AbsWTNk4ZOG IPbz4A/cC/f%3D0/ps%3D50/r%3D0/rx%3D550/ry%3D400/

I'll describe. I receive the kickoff, so it is my opening series vs. TCU. Typical three and out because my QB is so nervous he is pissing himself. I go to SIM the punt and oh snap, it is anal plunder from the hands of EA. Seriously, how do you explain my punter fumbling and TCU recovering for the score? Has anyone ever seen this happen? I wasn't going for it on fourth down, not on the very first possession on the road deep in my own territory. WTF?

The first time I remember seeing this I thought the return man fumbled the ball and they recovered their own fumble for a TD. The second time, the fumble was returned 90 yards and on the next play they scored. Unfuckingreal though. And don't get me started on the other ridiculous crap like everytime the CPU going for 4th and medium and making it, which has lead to a TD five times in the last five opportunities. Or how disproportionate the pancakes are again for the CPU. I've been out pancaked roughly 35-1 in each of my last 6 games. Some games I don't even register one. If I have to SIM to get pancakes, then why should I play the game at all?

Anyway, that's my rant. :bang::bang::bang:

I'd like to know why I've played...I don't know...atleast 100+ games vs the CPU. I've seen a few missed FG's by the CPU, long ones 45+. I'm fine with that.

But I have NEVER seen a missed xtra point. By me or the CPU.

Well when I'm the OC and I can't control the kicking game, why in the hell does my kicker miss xtra points? I mean it's 1 a game or more? Why if I kick the xtra point does he make it, yet when I'm doing the OC thing the kicker can't make it? Doesn't make sense.

On the defensive side of the ball I'm also confused. When I played at Georgia my defense made them go 3 and out a bunch of times, yet when I play Hawai'i or BYU they light me up? How is that possible?

The punt was blocked, I believe. I'd you look in the stats, you'll see that you had one blocked.

They are doing the "funny math" 3rd and 6, sacked for 11 yard loss, somehow 6+11= 18?????

3rd and 6, sacked for 11 yard loss, somehow 6+11= 18?????It's just a rounding error, most likely. The loss was probably 11.5 yards or something.

I owe you a beer. While I've never seen the CPU block a punt outside of a SIM result, I've suffered through three this season. Thanks for the knowledge!

Good thing, cause I've been known to enjoy a beer. :nod: :sf:
