So far I don't like the new kicking meter

Anyone else?
It's like they changed it just to change it and went back in time to the Old school meter.

I like it if it moves faster on higher difficulty levels, you're going to see a lot more missed kicks

The kicking meter looks fine for this years game. There should be a more realistic outcome of field goals compared to last years.

Looks too easy still...I think it needs to be faster.

I've seen some videos where it went drastically faster than others, so it could end up being a halfway decent way to reflect kicker accuracy. I was really taken aback by how fast I saw it move. Hopefully it will present a decent challenge for some of the less-than-stellar kickers.

I agree. I think it will be MUCH better than last year's way of kicking field goals. I might actually miss a couple this year...

Re: So far I don't like the new kicking meter

Hot Shots Golf fans will have a field day with this new kicking system.

I'm neither here nor there on the new meter style, but if you're playing head-to-head against someone, you can be time a blitz much easier playing defense because of the pre-snap read you get.

I guess it's all just kind of strange because this is a diversion away from the right-stick control that EA has grown acclimated to.

The function I don't mind so much, just the colors I don't know about.
