I’ve Come to the Conclusion This Game Just Doesn’t Really Work

Well he’s heard of the IBM 029 and knows why it has an 80 character limit, but I’m not sure what one has to do with the other.

Still waiting for an explanation

My guess would be so they can sell it to telemarketers or perhaps so they notify you about offers which in either case would involve Radio Shack making money which is how they remain in business to the extent they still are in business.

Regarding the topic at hand the code for correct QB behavior already exists with the CPU QB. To transfer that code to the user controlled QB in coach mode would be a simple task for a game that made $500 million upon release. No new code need be written. They should have the cash to hire more developers if that's the issue. EA needs to reinvest the cash they have made back into the game to make it function properly. The patches thus far have been underwhelming.

Regarding defenders behaving correctly I see 3 options.

1 - It's complicated given all the different alignments and they failed to get it right.

2 - They want the game to lean toward offense.

3 - It's not broken and what people are seeing is a result of player attributes.

I can get over a busted zone or two but guys just constantly standing there staring at a playable ball or not utilizing the proper zones is really hurting my experience. (Also, I haven't been able to connect to the EA servers for about a week)

But people will just gaslight you and tell you you’re bad at the game.

I think it’s a combination of all three. Mostly #1 but with #2 and #3 also having an impact. Unfortunately, because #2 and #3 are also contributing, some people will just say #1 doesn’t exist.

I don't mind the game leaning towards offense but its just my own opinion it leans just a bit much. If EA could nudge it a hair back the other way even ever so slightly, I'd be a happy camper. I recently went back to default sliders and I hope I can stay there without having to go back to using modified sliders..

Oh so they just need the IBM 029?

But are they hampered by the 80 character limit? Maybe that’s why the logic didn’t transfer over to coach QB AI

Good luck with that. These so called game issues I've been reading about are not happening in the games I'm playing one bit.

This is due to a combination of factors but the simplest of terms is football is an extremely complex sport and the best of players make mistakes. So mu suggestion is to either stop complaining and learn to overcome the mistakes made by you or your AI players or go play a game more suited to your comprehension and abilities.

No gaslighting involved when a game is pushing back at you trying to win.

If there is anything about gameplay that needs to changing is they need to make the AI controlled team even more difficult.
