Bill has played another game!

[Bill_Abner]

I'm not sure what to do about kickoffs and punts. But in the time I have spent with the game I have not seen one fair catch and most kickoffs are fielded at the 5 or 10 and returned to the 35 or 40. No way will I *ever* not return it past the 25. Punt returns -- there just isn't enough coverage. If a punt block is on you have all the room you need -- it's wide open. If it's a standard return -- just make the first guy miss and it's at least a 20 yard return. Right now this really is the game's most glaring issue.

As for the INTS, yes, things have toned down quite a bit -- I still want to play a few games with OSU on AA because I really do not want to pick 3-4 passes off per game with my team. But the games on Heisman and this latest AA game with TCU was much improved. I think the gameplay is significantly better on the whole this year which makes me want to start the online dynasty mode even more. That could really be a groundbreaking feature.

The TCU game I had the INT slider (human) at 0 and Human DAWR at 0. Both of those are related to INTs so I wanted to start at the bottom and work my way up if needed.

So yes, lift the sky back up and stop sending me hate mail LOL.

Edit: MacPlex, the original game (OSU V MSU) from last night was default AA lvl -- no sliders. That was the 4 INT session in the first half. The Notre Dame session (2 picks in the first quarter) was AA with CPU QB ACC at 100 and INTs at 0. I think there is a difference in moving sliders around when working on a usebale set and when testing something like INTs, imo.

Hey Bill,

How about going to the Stadium Sounds thread, downloading some of our Buckeye sounds, put them in the game, and tell us what you think of the feature? If you have time of course.

That's the one thing that has helped the time pass by quicker. Spending hours getting all of the Stadium Sounds authentic.

The last couple of weeks before Madden and NCAA come out should be called the "silly season."

Did anyone actually think EA would fix the INT problem? You should know better by now.

And it's pathetic that the thread about a return of the INT issue was closed. Is dissenting opinion supressed on this forum?
