HUGE man coverage bug (Video proof)

Re: HUGE man coverage bug (Video proof)

I had this happen at the end of a game against the Bengals. Ended up being a huge TD pass and I had to stop the 2-pt conversion.

Hopefully this is something that is in the first patch... Sadly, it reminded me of

Re: HUGE man coverage bug (Video proof)

Ok im seeing something different the CB covering the slot leaves his man maybe hes blitzing not sue what play u called So the outside CB goes to cover the slot to stop a quick pass and your safety does get back deep enough to have over the top coverage to help the outside CB

I don't know if this was directed toward me, but i was playing Dime Man Cover 2 with no hot blitz.

I played the season ticket version of the game all day yesterday from 8:30 am until about 10:00 pm and did not notice this. I'll keep an eye out for it today and see if it's happening.

Is this only happening when you are at the line and then call man coverage before the snap? Just curious because I rarely if ever do that. I choose man or zone at the play select screen and have not seen this.

He's right man coverage sucks a$$ and that's what's frustrating me in the game right now. I'll have a video going up sometime soon that shows something worse IMO. It has happened in three online games for me. Soo lame. Defense thus far has me not liking the game that much. I've been in position to snag a lot of INT's and I'm pressing the Y button and my defender does absolutely nothing.

It happens when man coverage is called from the normal play select screen.

Same... The response time with pressing the Y button is either lacking or gone completely.

I have also had the man-coverage bug occur (twice actually).

Is this the type of thing that can be fixed in a tuner or does it have to be patched?

Re: HUGE man coverage bug (Video proof)

I've had this issue several times in the season ticket version.. I actually noticed it a couple of times on the demo as well & thought nothing of it.. I figured maybe I just didn't do something correctly. There are times where I've had 5 DB's on the field & all WR's covered & even REVIS of all people takes a hard jab step toward the LOS at the hike of the ball & his man just completely blows by him & since all the defenders do it at once usually there is no recovery. It ALWAYS results in a huge play if not a TD for the CPU. . I'm most definitely hoping for a patch to fix this issue. I'm trying to hold off of starting my CC until it's fixed, but who knows how long this would be.

I ran into that myself. Needs to be patched.

Re: HUGE man coverage bug (Video proof)

This is the type of thing that needs to be patched more than some of the other stuff people are asking for.. Will test more to see if i find it..


I have played over 100 games and have either missed or haven't seen it.. This seems like a tuner issue that shouldn't take long

Re: HUGE man coverage bug (Video proof)

You don't press y this year, you have to hold y or swat and you do it in the cursor.

Its totally different than last year.

'in the cursor'?... as in where the ball is located with that little circle on the ground? That is news to me, but I will give it a shot.

Outside of that, I usually take control with B, let the player run the route on his own and then press (and hold) Y to catch it as the ball is getting closer. (Often to no avail)

It's still not working. That's what I'm doing. I'm holding Y right in the Circle and my defender just stands there, the WR's catches it and takes off. Also, defenders playing over the top in cover 6 if they do not see a threat on their side, should respond to the football. They are not doing it. They just drop to a spot and stand there and freeze.

If a WR becomes a threat they gotta take him and then they shouldn't be able to respond to a pass on the other side of the field, but if they are not occupied why are they just standing around?

Re: HUGE man coverage bug (Video proof)

Off topic: NCAA 13 has the same issue of LB/Y being unresponsive. It stinks on offense too since it makes pitching the ball on option plays near impossible.

On topic: I've spent the last 4 hours trying every conceivable slider & difficulty setting. I am confident that there is nothing we can do to fix the "run commit" bug. It took us less than 48 hours to discover this yet EA never caught it. Imagine how much better EA's football games would be if they gave us a beta so we could be QA testers.

Hopefully there are no other issues.

Is it really a bug or human horrible control of the corner?

I would argue it is a bug. I've seen too many other coverage issues.
