Clint confirmed on Twitter that formation subs didn't make it in. Guess we can officially cross this post out.

This post was made in jest from the beginning, I believe.

Is the heinous double juke still in the game?

Believe I answered that; the ball carrier tiers should help with this.

Also, the spin move is no longer the go-to way of juking. It's been slowed way down for most players.

What exactly is the double juke and why is it so heinous? Would this be an example of it here?

And if so, you're saying that this is what's been removed mrprice?

I'm a real in-game presentation/stat junkie. It may have been asked, but would you consider this to be a lot different or about the same?

I'm not saying anything's been removed, just that the ballcarrier tiers have created more separation between elite speed/power guys, so you won't be able to pull certain moves off with lower-rated guys.

It's heinous in my opinion, because not every ball carrier can make moves like that. In the game QBs, HBs, FBs, WRs, CBs, Safeties, LBers, everyone used it exactly the same.

The second thing that makes it heinous is that the ball carrier has no risk in making that move. The fumbles or injury occurrence wasn't higher when they'd do an ill advised double juke into traffic.

Lastly, the carrier wouldnt lose much speed, and be able to do a cut about 4-5 yards horizontally, and defenders wouldn't adjust to it.

This, largely, has been remedied by the tier system.

Do you recall seeing the new ball carrier moves and tiers being used by CPU returners, if so, could you give examples in the of kicks/punts?

The system extends to any player who is holding the ball, so yes, the tiers definitely impact them. I didn't feel like returners were dumbed down, but nothing sticks out in memory. It's been a few weeks now.

Certainly something to look for in the retail and EA play videos because I can't ever recall touted ball carrier additions impacting returners in an impactful way. Maybe you just didn't face any elite returners but it certainly seems to be the return game would be where ball carrier evasive moves should generally stand out.

I don't know how much the return logic has been improved but I know that the blocking has stayed roughly the same and that AI RBs definitely use the tools available to them. So it might wind up splitting the difference.

Are corner, out, and drag routes still overpowered?

Are deep zones still obvlivious to corner routs?

He can't talk about this stuff yet. I would imagine Price will be able to once the coverage blog comes out. Cause I think we are getting one of those.
