After looking at the poll on the Front Page I have a serious discussion for us

Yep....this is me as well, although I am extremely sympathetic to those who are affected by this. Hell, they may have added dreads, but I can't see them on my game. So, I guess I didn't even get that!

I remain dumb-founded we are still running the same engine this game has had since the PSX days. Granted, if something works, stick with it, but there has been no major innovations to that system since the first time it was run out. Player physics and graphics have been toyed with and improved, but nothing as far as the actual gameplay itself. The fact the CPU still automatically calls a timeout at the 2:00 mark if they are trailing is incomprehensible. It's exact proof they haven't touched the actual gameplay coding since it was first laid down.

People are pissed because of the servers, not the game.

There are some issues but overall it's pretty good.

The transfer failed garbage is creating a **** storm

There are more than a few people pissed about the no-huddle glitch and the problems with custom playbooks.

The servers are part of the game. They sold the game as that being part of the product.

EA did it with Madden & Nascar, If Ea would stop trying to make a game so kids, and two games a year Dads, can play...And make a Real Sim out of it..We would get better games...But mixing the two together is not working,

Better get used to that one, because that isn't gonna happen. There has to be a balance. Now, is EA doing it right? No. It's very possible, but they just don't wanna take the time and effort to reach that balance.

The no-huddle glitch will affect you whether you run a no-huddle offense or not. If you play defense at all, you will have to contend with it for every play against an offense that runs no-huddle. If you ever find yourself in a two-minute drill or similar situation, you will likely have to run a no-huddle offense whether you like it or not. I'm not sure how anyone can say the no-huddle glitch doesn't affect you. Maybe you can work around it, but it will impact your game.
