Hiding Icons Still A Problem

Even when the icons disapear, you are still able to hit any of the buttons and throw to that reciever. That totally defeats the purpose EA sports! you should just keep the icons visible because it has no effect if you are still able to throw to the reciecers.

Re: Hiding Icons Still A Problem

From playing the demo, I believe accuracy takes a hit when the icons are gone. I've thrown some pretty wonky passes even from a set position when testing this out....

maybe Ian can confirm

I disagree with you on this one. You can always still throw...I think we'd be going too far away from realism to not allow the QB to move his arm when he passes a 15 yard mark. Us removing the icons and hurting accuracy highly discourages the tactic...which was the overall goal and intent.

so you're saying a QB shouldn't be able to throw without the icons? I'm not sure I agree. I thought the point was to give a major hit to passing when you go back too far...not disable it entirely. I may be wrong though.
