Missing Extra Points

Has anyone had the computer miss a large number of extra points? I played a game against Green Bay and they scored 3 td's and Crosby missed all three extra points, all wide left. They also missed all their field goals. I thought it was the slider setting but the accuracy was set on 35, high enough to not miss extra points on a consistant basis. I don't really want to increase the accuracy slider as field goals are a bit too easy as it is. I would rather lower them, but the computer is having a hard enough time kicking field goals as it s. So I wrote it off as a fluke but the next 2 games the computer kicker missed all of the extra points.

Yes, it is a significant problem... another problem with universal sliders for special teams... either its to easy for the player or to hard for the CPU, there is no middle ground.

Re: Missing Extra Points

Very true. I am thinking of setting the accuracy to 100 and hopefully the cpu gets better. I would rather have field goals to easy than the cpu missing every damn xp.

Re: Missing Extra Points

I read on the EA forum about this. They are looking to fix it but now if u pick a field goal or XP and when they get set up wait 5 seconds for the framerate to adjust. Ive tried it and it helps out a bunch. EA said the framerate does something when u click a XP and u just have to wait at least 5 seconds for it to reset. It is about 95% effective.

Wait 5 seconds? Before ball is hiked or before the actual play is selected?

What OP is talking about is the CPU controlled team missing extra points.

Re: Missing Extra Points

I have seen 1 missed extra point through 2 seasons and 1 game of my third. I will also say that unless the CPU kicker is rated 90+ they seem to miss fairly easy kicks.

Re: Missing Extra Points

We all know the CPU is going to do something stupid no matter what, it wouldn't be the CPU if they didnt.

Wait 5 seconds from when everyone is at the line before u press the kick meter
