It is not fixed... Did extensive testing with it this morning. Safeties do drop back further. However, they play the ball very poorly.

Did you try with multiple secondaries or just one? It could be the awareness of the safeties you are playing with.

Zones are much better, but I did see the safety glitch on playaction a couple of times. I think it happens when the CPU goes aggressive on defense.

Um, the safety should step up at times on play action. That's the point of play action.

this^. Safeties aren't always going to play the play correctly in play action, they will bite as if it's the run...but that is SUPPOSED to happen.

but do they come to the LOS instead of dropping back? Remember to do this in game, because in practices they do play the zone perfectly. even before the patch.

I don´t have any issues if they do this in PA. But this was a problem with normal drop backs. Which they should have fixed it in the patch.

I completed 2 playaction streaks against bamas secondary two drives in a row in game. Tried in practice and never came close. Safety bit and danced around.

I haven't played since the release of the patch, but before patch, if you set CPU Pass Coverage to 100 and CPU INT to 55 or higher, the safeties played the ball extremely well.

Were you also running the ball effectively?

I've done more testing on Heisman and the CPU zone aggressiveness issue remains unchanged. Until EA removes the option to set zones to aggressive for the CPU or reworks safety logic, this issue will remain.

I played a little this morning and the offensive line blocking is still bad. Running and passing the line just can't hold a decent block. Had a hard freeze during the game which I had to reset the 360. The crowd seems
louder which is nice. The gameplay feels better except the blocking and
also way too many sacks from the cpu and myself. I think I had 8 sacks
vs Illinois using FSU. And Illinois had 6 sacks which seems too high.
I would give patch #2 a 7/10.

IMO safety play is much better, they do get beat at times but I've yet to meet one who doesn't. Also the CPU running backs are much better, more elusive. I've also noticed better play calling all around, no more dime defenses on 2nd and inches. Overall I'm pretty happy with the patch, it definitely improved upon the game.

Well, that's really realistic. If you're on the road, late, running no huddle the opposing crowd is going to be loud as hell, and your team is going to have issues hearing

They do this at home.

Well the offensive line/blocking wasn't addressed in this patch so it should still be the same...

Also, if you adjust your sliders, or stay in the pocket, you should see less sacks.
