HB slip screen, i think.

I notice that my HB and FB are open constantly in the flats.

as in, there doesn't even seem to be anyone covering them.

Also, I've noticed the TE go uncovered several times when I'm in Man defenses.

Yes, HB Slip Screen or something like that. I can't remember exactly what formation it's in, but the play is basically a delayed HB screen: the blockers and RB stand still for about 3 seconds and then move out to the side. Most of the time, the defense will run right past the blockers and RB in pursuit of the QB, leaving the RB wide open along with 2-4 blockers in front, which leaves only CBs, safeties, and non-blitzing linebackers to try and break through the blockers. Almost every time that play has been run for at least a first down.

This is a thread for people noticing issues to come and discuss without fear
of backlash from the rest of the OS community.

Many of the issues, I believe, have nothing to do with the difficulty level.

It also helps consolidate the info instead of trying to go back through hundreds of posts.

AND the online Dynasty and other improvements and I can't see how anyone who likes NCAA in general WOULDN'T be buying the retail version in July....

My question for you is does the overall gameplay seem a little slow to you?

When I call a running play, it seems as if Wells is in slow motion to get to and through the holes. Passing is always easy on NCAA so I like to master the running game and it just seems more sluggish and slow for him. Williams was slightly faster and a little different but overall still a little slow to and through the holes.

I appears that everything is a little slow in the backfield. That may have been done purposely by EA. I also notice a "force" that holds players from getting to top speed too quickly. I like that idea, it just doesn't look right for some reason.
