The shoe-string tackle has GOT to GO

This is frickin ridiculous. Seriously. If you have a fast WR and you catch a slant, nine times outta ten the DB will shoe string tackle you.

I can deal with it there. But when I have a fast QB, and I break around the corner, and all of a sudden a DE who is 5 yds away breaks from his block and somehow show string tackles me 5 yds(aka 15ft) away is mind numbing and makes me so mad. Its just stupid.

It is annoying. Just need to be used when it's in a realistic situation

Re: The shoe-string tackle has GOT to GO

Yeah, the computer always tackles in the most annoying ways. On the PS2, there are way to many horsecollar tackles and way to many tackles where all the computer player does is push your guy and he falls down. Another thing that really annoys me is when I get called for roughing the passer when the computer QB passes then starts walking forward and walks into one of my linemen who is just standing there and then falls down.

Re: The shoe-string tackle has GOT to GO

In my RTG with a Qb i was a scrambler with Air Force, had a 96 speed with boosted stats on average, none the less 7 times out of 10 i would get run down while scrambling around the outside by a DE with a shoe string tackle, Drives me up the wall. i could deal if they had a solid persuit angle, but most the time, they trail me and some how close the gap. Sad.

Re: The shoe-string tackle has GOT to GO

i can't tell you how many times I could've busted a big run only to be stopped at the LOS by a cheapo shoe string tackle by some slow poke DE. 9 times out of 10 its not a realistic shoe string tackle, I've noticed the frequency of those types of tackles increasing as well. It's annoying.

Re: The shoe-string tackle has GOT to GO

I disagree. I really like it. You see guys tripped up in real games all the time. Not with the frequency we see in NCAA 10, true, but the shoestring animation is a good proxy for all the other animations that are missing, IMO.
