And please, no more meters EA. It's time to allow us to rely on accuracy & timing of player models & controllers for kicks, a la foul shooting on NBA 2K. The less pup ups, blips, bleeps, graphs & meters on the screen, the more it will resemble a tv broadcast.

I just tried a field goal and it felt really odd.That right joy stick feels odd.I think I will get used to it like the free throws on 2k basketball

I don't remember 2K having anything like this either. I mean you don't have to blame Ea for everything.

i sure can't blame 2k for an ea franchise now can i? since i've only played maybe 15 games total of the entire 2k series football games i'm gonna keep my focus on ea. 2k is irrelevant guys stop beating that dead horse, let 'em rest in peace.

any hardcore gamer worth his salt would take any resonable style of bad snap potential compared to what we have now. you got it backwards.

a snap meter would be a best case scenario, but following your reason hardcore gamers would be be against fumbles, of course that's not the case.

hardcore gammers would embrace this enthusiastically.

ea would probably add it as a new "big feature" and then over do it and have like 3 bad snaps a game.

Not true at all, i've had this debate many times. Alot of the people here on OS who are old timers and str8 up sim ballers are completely against this idea.

its a free country.

but don't you see an inconsistency in the thought process of a person who accepts fumbles and penalties and opposes realistic kicking risk? After all they're relatively out of control parts of the game. Why wouldn't they accept realistic long snapping risk in the name of realism? heck with one more click of the kicking meter you would have as much control over the snap accuracy as you do the kick accuracy.

In fact i use this question as a litmus test. if you're for more realistic long snaping you're more of a hardcore sim person than the people that are happy with less realistic kick excecution.

this should be "prima facie" my man. come on get on the bandwagon.they won't fix it until the community gets it up front. and its seems like such an easy fix for a HUGE oversite...
