I think it comes down to how good you are at video games and knowing football.

You could be a football genius, but if you don't really play video games, then you just arent used to the hand eye coordination required..

And if you are great at video games, you could just not have the know how of how football strategy really works.

So the casual gamer could struggle because they don't worship and follow football and the football fanatic only bought a game console to play these games wont be that great.

They shouldn't be able to hip toss my 93 rated tackle just because the game decides it wants to give me a challenge. Maybe I just haven't found the right feel to the game as some of you guys have.

If this is true you clearly are just working game exploits, it is impossible to play ANYTHING close to a sim game and get reasonable results above Freshman because of the super DB issue. Above Frosh, they're GLUED to your receivers REGARDLESS of ratings. The passing game on Varsity is truly what you might expect on Heisman in years past, the level where EA has ALWAYS boosted CPU player performance far beyond their ratings, ie. digital steroids. Outside of ego, never understood anyone playing on Heisman, the ratings should be a major part of gameplay.

Or you could just lower the difficulty and not rip on someone for being better than you...

Re: Anybody else burned out?

Yes very.. My problem is the fact that this game is really just made for "tourney-style" play. Of course I can't expect much while playing against randoms online but the stuff they get away with is ridiculous.

I have people throw into my coverage numerous times with no interceptions. Yet the one time I throw into man coverage on a slant route its an automated pick? And the interception is only because the DB runs his route better than my receiver.

Hardly anyone punts on 4TH down and you know why? Because of the **** they get away with. Running to the right with the QB and waiting for receivers to come back to the ball. Or throwing to guys that are double covered no matter what and still coming up with catches.

And go ahead and say "stop playing randoms". I have been an online player since 2k5 and dealt with QB running, drop glitches, lineman glitches and corner route spamming. All were not nearly as annoying as EA tourney style play because they get away with way too much.

I really hate myself for buying another EA game because I miss football so much.

I would think the 14 year old kid is the one who can't play on the proper difficulty level because of his ego

I get burned out trying to find online players who don't choose Oregon, Alabama, or Oklahoma as their team. It gets old. Doesn't anyone want to challenge themselves a bit? There are 120 schools to choose from, for crying out loud.

Other than that, I love the game. I only wish they'd correct some silly bugs.

I think they really need to get rid of difficult and just have the game play to ratings. They should have sliders that actually work and have consistency and clutch ratings along with HFA to make the game challenging.
