    Replay Challenges?

    I did a search in the forums and I found that as far back as early May, users were complaining of not seeing any challenges pop up on close plays in the game.

    Initially, I would say in my first two weeks of owning the game in early April, I saw challenges regularly; however, since then, I have seen no challenges.

    Are other gamers seeing this issue? Did a patch ruin this somehow? Custom rosters causing a problem? Seemed like a cool new feature that I enjoyed initially, but I am frustrated to not see any in over two months now.

      I see them. They are always for the user controlled team and 90% of the time they overturn the call.

        Honestly I am experiencing the same thing. I started counting and I haven't seen one in 19 games since I started counting.

          I have lost count myself, but it is good to see that others are experiencing this. Never touched the settings and there are a ton of close plays that were originally getting reviewed and now are not.

            Same here Bullit, although I haven't played 19 games, but I have yet to see one after the patch. And there have been times I thought it would trigger, because it had in the past on similar plays, and nothing.

              Yea come to think of it I haven't seen one in a while either but to be fair I can't really remember any play where I was expecting to see it pop up.

                I just had one in my game. I hit cancel and it still took the same amount of time without the ability to skip it.

                    Ive played over 60 games thus for, and havent seen 1 challenge pop up. to you have to pause or something, or does it just pop up if it can be challenged?

                    Madden get rid of the extras (SS/XF, HFA, media, scenarios, game plan) or turn them down considerably.

                      It will come up automatically. You don't have to do anything to trigger it

                        That was my first time not accepting the challenge. I didn't know.

                          Remember challenges are only on close plays at 1st base. No where else. I normally get one a game or at the very least one every other game.

                            This is probably already well-known and common sense, but if you've turned off the "Umpire Close Plays" option for whatever reason, the 1st base challenges will never happen (because there's no need for it).

                              I see a couple close plays a game but the animation or prompt is never triggered like it used to be in the early days after initial release. It's odd how some people are seeing them and some are not and we all have the same updated game I am assuming.

                              If these animations never materialize in time, maybe by turning the close play feature to OFF, that would simulate the correct nature of the challenge function.
