What is wrong with this game?

[ChampIsHere42]

Randomly my ball carrier will just slow down and jog even while holding full sprint. Once defenders get close then it switches back to normal. Then randomly it will decide im gonna make a big run and my ball carrier will be twice as fast as the defense. And besides that, I feel like I am twice as slow as the defense.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

Another thing, idk what they did to the rosters but when I first got the game the Vikings were like an 87 ovr and now they are an 82..?? The team ratings were more spread out and now they’re all a lot closer.

I have noticed that. Especially right after handoffs and on kickoff returns.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

As for the Vikings, there are a couple of possibilities:

-Roster update that lowered the Vikings OVR

-If you went in the Franchise with the preseason roster, you may have extra players that are cut from the Play Now roster.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

A lot of that is due to(I think not 100% sure) the fact that RPM only effects users and not the cpu. So we get slowed down and it takes us longer to get to
top speed but the cpu is still going 0-100 in split seconds.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

I hope what you said is not true. The game would be ruined if rpm was only for the user.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

I sent a video to Clint on Twitter. My LB was literally jogging when I called a blitz. He made the sack, but he was jogging through the hole and jogged to the QB to get a sack......they have to patch the hell out of this game.....

Re: What is wrong with this game?

Also I feel no burst when I use the sprint button thru a hole. I know they've said use the sprint button sparingly but when I do, I don't feel like the RB is BURSTING. I've used David Johnson, Syquan Barkley and Todd Gurley so far and the most I've gained on a run is like 8yds........

From what I've noticed you have to use the one cut mechanic to get that burst. You'll notice the grass kick up under their feet. If your just going in a straight line then they gradually get to top speed, it's not a burst.

I don't see that burst either, even holding the speed button I notice no difference at all.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

It's not even that the running is so bad, it's that the CPU warp tackles everything. Sliders aren't helping much either. Same old **** with Madden. 1 step forward, 2 back.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

Haven't had the issue where the RB is slow after handoff, what's your game speed though? Many people said that seems to happen on slow game speed.


A lot of people are doing slider adjustments and finding it corrects the overly difficult running game. Upping run blocking a bit and lowering tackling seems to have an effect, I am yet to try it. My best runs have been about 15 yards right up the gut. I sprint one I hit the hole and definitely see them pick up speed. I need to do the skills training to learn 1 cuts and such lol. Spin move works pretty well, I got a 75 yard TD (on a pass) by spinning around two defenders with Michael Gallup. Granted, it was against 2nd string in preseason lol.

I had the slow down at handoff issue. I was playing on slow speed, I moved it to normal and the issue went away.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

I play on normal speed and still have the issue. Mainly on kickoffs but even with the running game.

Re: What is wrong with this game?

My issues with the running game is:

Sometimes I call a running play and the CPU immediately takes control of my RB and will make a sudden move for me. Its super irritating.


OH AND THIS REALLY BUGS ME!!!!: If I choose "chew clock" and I call a play where theres an automatic man in motion, I cant get the play off in time because either the QB is too slow to get to the line or the man in motion moves extremely slow usually the FB...
