3 games in and the drops are just making this unplayable. I’m all for drops but I have had Godwin and Gronk drop multiple wide open ones in multiple games.

User man coverage is also still awful. Defensive backs turning the wrong way still and they still freeze in place to give wrs separation.

Im seeing the same issues. What they "fixed" mustve been very minor. However, adjusting catching does help.

Im not seeing a change from previous version.

What kind of changes to catching are you talking about? Slider adjustments or editing the receiver's abilities?

Raise catching slider.

I'm sure there will be a quick fix soon.

Hopefully, that doesn't break anything else.

Unfortunately I have to agree that there's probably an issue with dropped passes in this patch, and the competitive crowd is on the mark here. I went into practice mode with the offense only and ran a slant play multiple times targeting Amari Cooper (90 CTH) and tried different slider settings. None of them mattered - even 100. I still saw an occasional drop with the slider maxed. That's....not good.

At first I thought it might be a issue with Catch in Traffic contributing heavily to the drops, and the game counting drops in stats that wouldn't really be drops in the NFL. But this is offense only practice mode, where only Catching should matter.

This will be fixed (and probably quickly) because the competitive crowd is already screaming bloody murder over it. In the meantime...off to my backup PC version because this was bound to happen at some point.

Edit: To clarify - I can tell the slider works because zeroing it causes him to drop literally every pass. But there's something going on that won't allow elite receivers to be elite.

Re: Title Update 4 Gridiron Notes

Speaking of crafty wording... "Updates have been made to address general performance that impacted reliability of the kick meter, where it would sometimes hitch during field goal situations. "


OK Tiburon. It glitches every FG attempt. Not sometimes. It also glitches on kickoffs. It's like they're afraid to admit that the clear and obvious bugs that everyone sees exist for some reason. The game has bugs. Like every game. Just admit it, fix it, and move on. Stop pretending like this stuff doesn't exist.

Their wording is accurate. It did not happen every time and like others have said, it usually happened if you rushed the kick. Relax at least they are fixing it with this patch.

Let me pitch this to anyone who's seeing excessive drops:

When your receivers drop a pass, are you getting a rumble in your controller?

Before this patch, every time my receivers dropped a wide open pass I'd get a controller rumble. But now there are times where the drop happens but it doesn't rumble. This might mean there's something different going on - some kind of issue with the animation or collision detection, and not necessarily with the catching algorithm. It would help explain why raising the slider doesn't seem to do anything. But I suppose that's for EA to figure out.

To be more specific - lowering my slider to the point where "normal" drops happen still causes the rumble on drop, so that does still happen. The way it is right now, some drops are causing the rumble, and some aren't. I think the ones that do cause it are the "real" drops that are supposed to be happening, and the no-rumble ones are....something else.

Wasn't that supposed to be fixed?

I've seen several instances of making a hit stick tackle. I glance off of the runner. The runner fidgets for about 2 seconds then falls over. Looks ridiculous.

Also i noticed that you can make special teams subs so I can finally make my punter be a holder for kicks. Is this new?

I'm pretty sure that's been an option for at least a few years.

Confirmed. This was half the angst over formation subs being broken...people wanted to get their starters and rotational guys off special teams.

Wow. How did I ever not notice this. i was looking to see if you could change kickoff personnel which you still can't. I wish it would be set to punter by default for all teams. But i can at least have it for my team.

To be honest, I never noticed a controller rumble before...it's a pretty subtle one.

But playing through a few games tonight, I'm seeing the same thing you are: drops feel more prevalent...in a totally anecdotal, unscientific and insufficiently sampled sense...and the controller rumble happens only about half the time, and only on the drops that "feel" more normal/logical.

Good catch, if you'll forgive the pun.
