Online Bug (Jump The Snap Related)

[mizzou79]

Most everyone sets their defensive line to aggressive online (yellow). If you hard snap some of the time you can get the defense to jump (most of the time its one of the opposing players defensive line not controlled by him). If you get them to jump offsides 3 times in one game it automatically removes them from the game for stalling (it thinks they are moving their controlled player across the line to stall the game). In my opinion this is stupid and the code should be able to differentiate between a CPU controlled player and a real player in control jumping offsides.

This is the real problem though. Say you get the opposing player to jump offsides twice in one game so the next one would kick him out of the game. Later in the game (doesnt matter how long) if you get him to come offsides again (third time and he should get booted) but the play is not stopped for whatever reason - free play for the offense right? Most of the time yes, but say you fumble or throw an interception when he jumps offsides - the code will think you were the one on defense and you will get booted from the game even if you had no penalties the whole game. Hopefully a dev will read this and be able to fix it in some patch.

This will not get fixed because it was or has been in previous versions. You jump 3 times it's over.

After the second jump you had better turn the DL to normal. Easy Fix.

That seems like a pretty bag bug, however I have never encountered it. Im sure i have jumped offsides 3 times in a game at some point in the last 3 or 4 years of online play but never been booted for stalling like that. Does it have to be 3 times with the SAME player, or just 3 times in the game with any 3 players?

one of the many reasons not to play online.
