Where are the Purple Buzz Zones (curl to flat)!?

[Rori Daed]

Is it just me or have these been removed from Madden 16? I feel like Im' going nuts!

Right on the left stick I believe

[Rori Daed]

i see that but why isn't it in any of the actual plays... only way you can get it is by doing an individual defensive assignment change pre-play? that makes no sense, lol.

They are def there .

Oh you mean like cover 2 sink? IDK why they changed that. It shows the CB manned to the WR, but I'm not sure if he is truly manned on him.

[Rori Daed]

no i've seen the cover 2 sink, and i do believe they are manned up on the outside in that defense...i was scrolling through the coughlin playbook, because the giants are my team... and i'm realizing i see no purple circles at all... none... are you telling me that somehow buzz zones are strangely missing from that playbook but are in others? somebody screenshot me a madden 16 defensive play with the purple buzz zones, lol. i asked my friend who uses the jags and he said the same thing.

[Rori Daed]

i feel like maybe they're absent from 4-3 books only, because my friend uses the jags and their playbook and noticed the same issue... i know you see less of them in 4-3 books but there's always been some... now they seem to be gone altogether... strange.

[Rori Daed]

For real though... Why is this not bothering anybody? The purple buzz zones are completely absent from this game unless you manually adjust someone's assignment to it presnap... Is this some sort of glitch? Can someone from EA address this?

Likely because the light blue flat zones play as deep and deeper than the purple zones when there's no one in the flats.

Also you can use guard the sticks.
