Immediate Injury Notices Needed For Update

I'm impatient. The cutscenes get old for me quick and I'd rather have the information fast so I can get back to what I like--digging out plays and executing them.

How impatient are you? The ticker has an update typically within one or two plays. Geez.

I feel you on that, that just seems to be the only way. I doubt this is something that is "tune-able" and I doubt it'd be deemed "patch worthy". So for this year it's probably all we got.

I'd like a pop up notification or a cutscene immediately after the play (think old PS2 Madden's and NCAA's were you couldn't skip the injury annimation so you knew if someone was injured quickly). At that point I normally change my play or will do some quick subbing. This way I'm not throwing to a backup player or running with my 2nd HB (because this year they seem to cough up fumbles about 30% of the time I run even if hitting RB when making contact. I've had the Penn State 2nd HB give up 5 fumbles in a few games against friends when the starter is injured).

True and a good tip, but we all press A. The way the game communicates injuries was fine before, now it's annoying. Half the time Erin pipes up I don't know who she's talking about.

Probably so, but perhaps they could have the injury text notice stay on the screen longer.

yup, and most of the time there is an injury notification right above the score bar. same reason why people think there are no stat overlays too, they usually skip them without knowing it. although there should be more stats overlays than there are.

What he means is there needs to be more notice about when someone is hurt..and there is a need for more of a notice imo also
