Field goal holding warning

[stevecb2412]

hey I know this is probably already in the bugs/glitches thread...there is a high frequency of holding on field goals on the default penalty slider settings...I wanted to share a quick experience with it however which is why i created this thread:

I was trailing 28-27 with my friend in a local game, I ran the clock down to 2 seconds with the ball on his 20 or so yard line, called timeout....kicked what I thought was a game winning field goal...however I recieved an offensive holding penalty, which I guess automatically ends the game if done with no time or less then 10 seconds on the clock or something like that (which is real NFL rules)...so when you guys are kicking those last second field goals...maybe try and give yourself some extra time to try it again...or you will possibly get a very dissatisfying loss

This happened to me once where I was attempting an extra point and got called for holding 3x!!!!! I kicked the extra point that was about 35-40 yards out. I thought that was weird.

Hopefully I'll be receiving this soon (thanks for sending it Wednesday morning Gamefly... ), and I just wanted to thank you for the thread. I don't want to go into the bug/glitch thread and wade through hundreds of complaints and problems before I get a chance to experience the game on my own. However, knowing about this one problem is certainly a big help if I were to get into that sort of situation. Thank you very much for the post!

I knew what you were talking about. I'm the one that put it in the bugs/glitches thread. I've had the game since Saturday so we are all aware of it. That's why I put it in there.

Dude...this EXACT same thing happened to me, same score and everything. I was Detroit playing offline vs New Orleans, waited til 2 seconds, and got the holding call. I was pretty upset, but it's nuts how you got the same exact thing.
