Kick aiming and injuries

[rayb]

While I did read a lengthy thread about kicking it seemed to focus on the x button. My issue is trying to aim the "arc". When I try to move left/right it seems to move very fast and I cant control it (get it to slow/stop). After a few seconds it seems to bury itself in the ground and I cannot move it, making any kick beyond an extra point impossible..
Anyone else? Am I missing something here? (ps4 version)

Also ..started an offline Franchise with the Eagles..After the pre-season I had at least 15 guys injured, including 2 QBs, 3RBs, 3 WRs and 1 TE.
Had injury slider set to 54..Is this a total fluke?

Thanks

The arc is very sensitive. Try changing your settings to pro and practicing so you can get a feel for it (on pro / rookie, I don't think the arc disappears.

I put injuries down to 43. Default was too ridiculous, after two games I had lost Manning, Beckham, Tye, Landon and 2 others for 6 to 9 weeks. At 43 I still see injuries, just not half the line-up.

This, left and right i'm ok with, but without even touching the sticks after selecting a FG the meter buries itself in the ground and I can't kick the ball more than 30 yards regardless of power.

Going to try a different controller next game, but it's done it every game I've tried to play so far.

Sometimes it seems to not detect the button press if you hit it at the max power and then what you think is your accuracy is actually your power.

OP do the skills trainer. Helped me a ton.

Lol good. I was having the same issues and didn't see a post about it so thought I was just super bad at kicking this year. Finally I asked in the Q&A thread and someone gave me the answer. Life saver after kicking 15 yard punts for a few games haha.
