Timeout button broken?

I know that for a fact that I've attempted to call a timeout on several occasions and wasn't able to. At first I was thinking the button on my controller is defective, so I tried another controller and the same thing happen. So then I replaced them both with new controllers and it just happen to me again needing a timeout to setup for a fg and bam...........it happens again.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but there seems to certainly be a problem

Sure you aren't just out of timeouts? I'm not doubting you or trying to be funny, but I haven't had this happen at all.

The timeout button can be very unresponsive at times...it has happened to me several times. If you are in a very crucial part of the game I suggest pressing the start button and calling the timeout from the pause menu. So no, you aren't crazy dude....can I have one of your controllers? LOL!

It is probably "broken" unfortunately......but you can't be surprised.

QFT

Has happened to me several times as well. Usually seems to happen when the Qtr./Game is about to end, and you're trying to line up for a last second field goal. Kind of sucks, but no game breaker, I just pause the game and use the menu now.

Re: Timeout button broken?

i have to press about 4-5 times before it actually calls a timeout...def an inconvenience because that could be a couple of seconds off the clock.
