OK I know of at least one other gamer that claims to have experienced this and I wondered if anyone else has. So far I have had two miracle finishes, one of which was complete bs, imo and the other which I now question due to the second.
In the first one, I'm down 7-13 after my opponent scores with a few seconds on the clock left in the 4th. They squib kick the ball, it takes a bounce and my 2nd KR, Santana Moss, is able to grab it then proceed to juke out a couple would be tacklers and even break some tackles to get the game tying score, then I kick the go ahead XP for the win. I have a saved highlight of that play.
The second time was just now, I make a FG with around 7 seconds left on the clock to go up 24-21 in the 4th. I squib kick it very short and the returner is tackled at their 42 with 3 seconds left in the game. Like a knuckle head I don't call a prevent nor back my defenders off deep in the Quarters Cover 2 Man that I call. My opponent throws a Hail Mary, Tory Smith gets behind the deep FS but Flacco slightly underthrows the ball allowing D. Hall to under cut the jumping Smith for the INT attempt. However he drops the INT, the ball rolls down, hits his face mask, which is of course looking away from the endzone but somehow the ball still trickles towards the endzone, hits the helmet of Ray Rice that is also in the wash at this point, the ball still continues trickling towards the end zone, into the hands of Smith that is just landing from his initial jump at this point, not even looking at the ball and he proceeds to run the catch into the end zone, in stride for the last second win. I don't have video of this one because a) the in-game highlights play it too fast to see everything you can in slow-mo and b) that ish pissed me off, lol.
I'm not out to bash the game because up until that point there were really nice plays on both sides of the ball, then suddenly that bs at the end. That's what made it stand out because it was so arbitrary to how the rest of the game played out, it tainted an otherwise enjoyable hard fought game.
Anyway just wanted to see if anyone else has experienced anything like this and if it's truly some Tiburon added Spectacular/Miricale Finish animation or trigger, like the Clutch trait, they need to disable it in a patch or at least give an option for disabling it. Keep your eyes open for something like this in close games.
For the record, I'm not being a sore loser either because the game was meaningless, except for bragging rights, it was an Unranked All Madden game against a family member online.
