No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. HELP?!

[mickeypowell5]

Everyone says that turning the auto-sub in to less help.

No.

It doesn't.

And let me just stop you right there before you disagree.

No.

It doesn't.

It's bugged. And you think EA would of patched it by now.

Does anyone. ANYONE. Anyone at ALL. Have ANY idea on how to fix this? I'm tired of my starting rock-toter being absent from the 4th qtr. No matter what I do, he will not come back, whether I'm blowing a team out, tied up, or being destroyed, he will not come back.

I will only give him the ball 15 times over three quarters, and even then, he disappears. I feel like breaking something I'm so mad. I'm tired of this.

Someone give me something to go on here!

The only thing I know that could be of help, and Ill have to test it when I get to play some more, is NEVER run him 3 times in a row in the second half. I have had my RB1 be absent in the 4th plenty of times, but sometimes hes still there. This also may have to do with the stamina rating.

No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. ...

Give us some specifics as to how you get this problem. I've played hundreds of games and I've never lost my HB late in the game. My #1 HB is always available at the end of the game.

I play on 7 minute quarters.
I spread my carries around between 3 or 4 HBs as well as WRs and QB.
I'm on 360.
I'm on default auto subs.
I run no huddle so my HBs are usually on the field for 5+ no huddle plays in a row.
I usually have a or a 2:1 run*** ratio.
I have 2/3 up tempo (because I feel 3/3 is too overpowered ).

What about if you turn fatigue down? It would suck to do that, but I'm on my last leg here....

What is your hb player ratings?

Did you try turning fatigue off?

Are you playing with high tackle sliders? Big Hits could be zapping his stamina.

I love the passive aggressive tone of the OP.

Maybe it doesn't for you, but I have used auto-subs and manually getting different guys carries (usually a 10-30-60 split between three guys) and NEVER had the glitch happen to me.

If it isn't related to your auto-sub or something is wrong with your stamina ratings, then I recommend a complete wipe of your game data.

What system are you on? When people post issues they need to give specifics? Were you a season ticket early release guy and your season ticket files were imported to the regular game? People have reported issues in that case and they are fixed by deleting all your NCAA data, season ticket and regular, and re-installing fresh.

You're probably gonna "that's dumb, I don't want to lose my progress," but I am just saying, a fresh install can fix a lot of things sometimes.

Does your appear on multiple positions? Is he the KR, PR, HB, and like backup FB/TE/WR?

That could be affecting it too. Just make him your HB only

79/85 HB auto subs

I also use a run heavy Pistol offense.

OP try setting your Auto Sub to 80/85 or 80/90. I had your same exact issue where my starting RB would disappear for almost the entire 2nd half until I adjusted my auto sub to 80/90.

I should say I am always deep at HB every year so it doesn't matter to me if my HB1, HB2 or HB3 is in the game.

Re: No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. HELP

I mean honestly quite frankly, you're wrong the auto subs are responsible for whatever issue you are having…my running back had 39 carries last week in my dynasty so its something you are doing…

Re: No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. HELP

Mickey,

I have the same problem tonight. I am playing coach mode vs CAL. They are doing the hurry up option on me to death. My safeties haven't played since the 2nd qtr. The computer is throwing my 1st, 2nd and 3 string QB's into the DB position as well as my HB's. I'm so pissed cause my Safeties won't comeback in at all.

Re: No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. HELP

USA. One back offense. 55/45 Pass/Run Ratio.

HB splits are 80/15/5 through first three quarters then 0/75/25.

My starting running back does not play special teams ever.

Tackling is high, but he's a hoss and never gets hammered.

Through three quarters he usually has 15-20 carries, while RB2 has 3-4 carries, and RB3 might see 1.

I've tried everything. Even if I hold back his carries to 10 or so, he disappears in the 4th.

Guess I just have to wipe it clean or whatever. I bought the games about a week after it came out.

And no my offense is not hurry up. I play 8 minute quarters and have a default run off of clock. I aveage 65+ plays a game but only because my defense is hardcore. Average amount of plays run during a game by both teams combined is around 120-130 if I'm playing against a team whose tempo is default.

I play on the 360

My RB sliders are 85out/80in and changed to 75out/80in during the 4th qtr just so it might help bring him back, but it never does. I've even tried putting the RB sliders to something like 20out/25in or something drastic. There's nothing I can do, he never comes back.

Re: No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. HELP

I use formation subs. HB1 gets about 80% of the formations, then HB2 gets 5 or 6 and HB3 gets 1 or 2 to be in. That way when I change formations I change backs and they get a rest. Always keep them rotating in and out and they will always be there in the end.

[mickeypowell5]

Re: No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. HELP

Formation subs wouldn't do any good due to the fact that it doesn't matter how many reps I give my starter, he will disappear in the 4th.

Re: No. The auto-subs do not prevent starting RB from disapearring in 4th qtr. HELP

I have the same problem. I've tweaked the sub % all over the place but can't fix this. I run a pro-style offense, so I run a lot. I'm in year 6 of my dynasty and every year my HB2 has statistically out-performed by HB1 because he always disappears in the second half, regardless of how I tweak the % or how I change around the depth chart in game.

I think I'm just going to start making my best running back HB2 so I'll have him at the end of games.
