Bugs & Glitches - NCAA Football 12 Wish List & Feedback

I fumble in OT against USC and the DE picks it up and runs to the endzone for a TD and USC wins 37-24 in double OT. However, my player hits the ground before the ball is let loose. I go to challenge and the cpu won't let me... the challenge screen is gone because the game is over as soon as the clock hits zero. I lose because of the B.S. challenge system. Then the best part... I go to instant replay after the game to see the last play AND I watch the USC offense score a TD the series BEFORE the fumble????? WTF??? Anyone else see this yet? I was really choked as this will cost me a BCS Title birth.

You couldn't challenge plays on the final play in 10 either.

Which is actually right, if memory serves, because all challenges within the last few minutes are done by the booth, not the coaches, right?

But I'm pretty sure the game itself won't trigger a challenge for the final play ... and that is a mistake either way.

There's an animation that plays for a horse-collar tackle, but it's called, and penalized as, a facemask.

I noticed that 1 of my games had the wrong home/away setting. I changed it to what it should be and backed out again. I went into Custom Schedules a 3rd time and everything was right so I backed out again and advanced. When the season started, I looked at my schedule and everything was right.

I noticed that back when I was trying out OD tests when I was still gonna do a Navy single player OD, however, I did that three times to make sure my schedule was how I wanted, and it still changed on me between the pre-season menus and Week 1.

This may have been mentioned earlier, but is still occurring after Patch #2. If you play with Notre Dame at home, using their default home uniform, or Northwestern with the same, player names are not displayed for the controlled player. I don't believe player names were displayed when using Coach Cam to look at routes either.

Changing Notre Dame to their white uniform instead of blue returns the player names.

EDIT: Confirmed with steelerfan that this also affects Dynasty.

There is a HUGE HUGE HUGE exploit with Pump Fake now. If you pump fake backwards, which causes the QB to completely turn around, it causes anyone in man coverage to come flying toward the QB, leaving people WIDE open.

Appears to only be in the 360 version though as people on the PS3 have tried it with nothing happening.

I have to admit, that's borderline hilarious.

Another pretty significant bug:

Don't know if you can quite tell, but the line of scrimmage is the 49 of WVU's side of the field but Tyrod Taylor actually steps up to the 47 1/2 or so before throwing the ball, causing the receiver downfield and pretty much everyone else to think he's running the ball instead of throwing it.

He shouldn't even be able to throw the ball at that point because it would be an illegal forward pass.

Only time I had it happen, but it was pretty significant.

Player names appear with ND's green jerseys too, just for the record.

When you run audible, sometimes the OL will adjust their stance and line up at an angle.

This has been there, at least in principle, for as long as I can remember in the series. I don't think the act in general is a bug ... though in previous iterations you could only do it if you started the throw behind the line of scrimmage and your animation carried you across the line. You definitely could not get into a situation where you were across the line (thus making every AI player thinking you were running) and then could throw the ball.

Though, as I write this, I seem to recall that being a bug in at least one title last year ...

That was actually done by the CPU.

Well, the CPU would be able to do it under the same conditions as a Human player. But that's the first time I've heard of it causing the defense to read run and the QB be fully across the line before the animation started.

The countless grammatically incorrect Recruiting text reponses have been mentioned already, but here's a small error that comes up after every media upload:

Eh, that's just spelling ;)

not in 11 but i saw it in 10. 1 was a fumble. The other was acpu td pass clearly out of the endzone. Called a td on 3rd down. No replay to be shown. Needs to be fixed. This would be a terrific Tuning update IMO

Weird play just happened in my WSU dynasty. Arizona @ Wsu. Don't remember the down and distance but UA driving inside WSU 30. Middle screen is called. Flag is thrown as the qb drops back, he throws complete, and 10 yards down the field the ball is fumbled. Defense recovers and gets tackled by the last man possible after running about 7 yards the other way. The tackler, who was an O-lineman, was hurt on the play, and "we'll take a break, while the injured player is attended too", happens from Nessler. All's well and good, except that penalty flag that was thrown is never explained upon or given the option to accept or decline. A lot happened on the play, but I think the injury ultimately overrode the penalty call. That needs to be fixed, it could cost someone a game!

Stupid issue during online dynasty:

File will not upload/update to the server after 'players leaving' task during the offseason. You just get the 'transfer failed' screen with the option to 'try again' or 'exit online dynasty'.
If you skip trying to persuade the players to stay, then the file will upload and off you go like there was no problem, except that you just lost depth across your team. If you try to persuade guys to stay, the file will not upload and thus you can't continue.

Deleting files, retiring from the dynasty.....none of that works.

Here's a new one, at least to me it is.

I was playing my game in Week 6 of the Cold Dead Hands OD. I am Rutgers and I was at home against UCONN. I was leading, 27-3 with just a few minutes left and UCONN is driving. UCONN QB Zac Frazer gets injured, a cutscene of the trainers tending to him on the field is shown. UCONN runs the no-huddle after the cutscene and Frazer stays on the field. Frazer throws a TD pass on the next play and then is replaced (and does not return, strained pec - I think) for the ensuing 2 pt attempt.
