        Are the ratings RBS, RBF, PBS, and PBF in the game this year? They were not on the ratings spreadsheet and don't contribute to the OVR score for any player. Are they even in the game or have they been removed entirely?

          If you had to give 3 bullet points for pros and cons what would they be for each based on what you have seen so far?

          Pros
          1)
          2)
          3)

          Cons
          1)
          2)
          3)

          Thanks,

          C

          Just off the top of my head

          Pros

          1. The new pass catching system

          2. Tackling (pile ons, defenders diving in, multiple defender tackles)

          3. Lighting (night games look great, 6:30 games go from pinkish sky to completely dark)


          Cons.

          1. CPU running game can be too easy to stop, user running game still feels a bit stilted to me and not smooth enough

          2. Old issues like Robo kicker, lacking presentation, ol/dl interaction still not being good enough. No formation subs (has got to be added) penalties are slightly improved, but it needs more work. I have seen a bunch of intentional grounding plays and never once has it been called.

          3. Visually speaking the old equipment/lack of certain equipment is really starting to irritate, the game looks great, but it really would take the next step if gear was given a complete overhaul. It would be a really good idea to get a thread stickied right now before 16 even drops to let the devs know what we want added for 17 equip wise including pics. I'm sure they would take a look. I know it's already been hinted at by devs equipment will be added soon, let's make sure they get it right! Also aware that many people couldn't care any less about equipment, but also aware that a lot of people do.

            I believe it's called even teams this year and its an option before every game

              Not sure if we are talking about the same thing? It's when you are forced to punt in realistic situations and stops online cheese??

                That's very different than fair play.

                      Is that the guy who was about to show that EA servers are offline but then the stream just dropped?

                              It was in which is why people ask for it but it's been about 10 years.

                                How organic do the catches feel?

                                Are all one on one catch interactions canned or is the physics engine combined?

                                How seamlessly does a third defender interact with a one on one canned catch animation?

                                Do tall receivers have a decided advantage?
