Kicking Meter / aim gone?

I apologize if I missed another thread about this....but has anyone had the kicking meter either disappear or become so light on the screen that you can barely see it?

I was playing and suddenly lined up for an extra point and I was unable to aim my kick. I could still see the power meter but the arc/arrow that aims your kick was barely visible if at all on the screen....of course I needed to aim my kick to compensate for the wind and because I had no clue where it was going, I shanked the extra point. Thankfully I lost by more than one point

I though it might be part of home field advantage since I was on the road, but next game was at home and same thing....I can't see the arrow to properly aim my kick

Part of the home field advantage/momentum meter

Re: Kicking Meter / aim gone?

As per timmg, there is a game condition that is something like "kicking arc greatly reduced" The arc is there, but barely visible.
I'm ok with it. Kicking is too easy as it is. Perhaps there should be a link to kicker awareness making it more visible.


Were these "game day conditions" there on release, or recently added? Not the momentum, where the home team has an extra benefit, but the game day condition that is permanent, and affects both teams equally.

I kind of like it. Makes kicking challenging.

It's a glitch. It was happening to me randomly, home or away, momentum or not. The kicking meter normally fades out after a few seconds, and for me it would fade out on my first kick and never return.

I had it completely disappear once during a game and pausing the game and going back into it returned the meter.

Re: Kicking Meter / aim gone?

It’s not a glitch. Read some of the momentum swing things. One of them is that the kick arc is gone when the other team reaches certain momentum level.
