I know it's correct. It just sucked, it was in the Super Bowl too :/

You win heart break loss of the year.

Though, not sure it's really something you want to win.

This is correct, and I just had a game won by the CPU on the first drive during the regular season by FG. Madden screwed this one up. Or couldn't make the change in time and failed to fix the announcing or something.

I've had three OT games and the rules have been implemented. First one I won by scoring a TD after they got a FG. Second, I punted, and it then proceeded as sudden death. Third, was same as first except I took first possession.

Are all you guys saying its broken sure you understand the new rules?

Similar thing happened to me, only I was the one that won via a field goal on the first OT possession. Seems the rules are working fine for some and not others.

Try playing a ranked game, I bet the overtime rules will be implemented then.

i played a game vs the cpu that went into overtime. i won the coin toss and chose to recieve. i drove the ball down the field, running clock so there were about 30 seconds left in the game, then kicked a field goal. i then kicked off to the cpu, and they had roughly 20 seconds left to go 80 yards. everything is good until this point, as per the new ot rules.

then they proceeded to run a draw play, and i was like, "wtf are they doing?"

the clock expired, i was up by 3 points, AND THE GAME WENT INTO OT2. we switched sides of the field and the cpu retained posession. they threw a pick on the next play, so i wasn't too pissed, but damn, madden needs to fix this sh!t.

Dex, even if you take out the pick; Madden implemented the new OT rules correctly, in your game.
