Well we've had a couple months with the game so what are your thoughts of the tackle battle?

I'm assuming it was a pretty small resource feature and I could do without it. It looks unnatural in motion to me and I just don't get enjoyment out of executing/winning a battle.

Don't like it.. Momentum sucks.. I mean you could be running straight and get in a battle/gang tackle and next minute you're running sideways/backwards..

For the most part, I don't mind it as it barely affects the outcome of a play for me. Rarely do I get 2 players 1-on-1 either on offense or defence and get the battle button pressed in time, before a 2nd defender swarms in to cancel the tackle battle.

Having said that, my original stance was "its cheesey, it needed an off option and instead of that they should spend more time on the physics to make sure size, speed and momentum work like they should". So I guess that means my opinion improved.

It's just another gimmick that will eventually be removed in a future edition. I would have preferred they spent their time in other areas. But I'd imagine the online crowd likes it because it's about button timing and stick skills.

I don't use it at all. I'm trying to play a football game not Mortal Kombat.

Pretty much this for me too

I initially thought it would be an OP feature, but I rarely notice it to be honest. Doesn't really effect much in my opinion.

Don't like it, momentum has no effect, player weight has no effect. Just doesn't feel right
