I hope they take this garbage out next patch....wtf are they thinking?

I just had a pick with Tye Hill and he was caught by Mike Sellers who has a 70 speed...

Re: Chances they remove that herky jerky slow down crap when a player breaks away?

same thing w/ me but on offense. I will hit the perfect holes and take it to the outside so it will be tougher to catch me and my rb looks like he is stumbling and is limping when he isnt hurt. So i end up missing out on a huge run for a td and get tackled in the redzone

I knew I wasn't crazy. I knew it looked like Chris Johnson had been shot in the leg on whenever I broke a run with him. Glad I wasn't the only one seeing this issue and I dearly hope it's fixed. Nobody should be able to catch Chris Johnson, let alone linebackers.

Yeah this has been in since the patch. It's ugly as hell... I'm not an expert but I'm pretty sure it's fatigue in action.

If the player is fatigued and you break off a big run... you'll actually see the player's speed rating dropping mid run which is why you get the jerky motion.. the players speed is literally going from 90, 89, 88, 87, 86. 85... the problem is each rating drop seems to cause a "limp" like animation.

EDIT: That's also why you don't always see it... cos some players aren't fatigued when they break a big run.

Interesting, I have been reading up on the issue on other fourms but haven't heard that theory before. But I've seen it happen with Jerious Norwood when he has just been subbed in for Turner when I broke a run so I'm not sure if that could be it. He shouldn't be getting tired on his first run off the bench.



Edit- Also, in other fourms, they were saying that they added this in to help fix the broken pursuit angles......

+1

Whatever EA did to cause this ... FIX IT!!! It visually ruins the run game, looks like the RB's have something holding them back during break-away runs???
