RB's Getting Bogged Down

[KleShreen]

Yes, I searched for this but couldn't find if anyone else was having the same problem. I am noticing an issue on any play where there is a pitch or toss (including options), where when the RB receives the ball, he just stands there for a second or two before being able to move. It is as if the RB is running in quicksand for three jab steps before he can actually start running. I thought maybe it was a penalty for holding the acceleration burst trigger before receiving the ball, but that doesn't seem to be it. I don't know if it might be a speed threshold thing which wouldn't make any sense but who knows?

Again, apologies if I am missing a glaring thing here and being oblivious to reading something major. I know how stupid I am about to look if that is the case.

Re: RB's Getting Bogged Down

I think this would most likely fit best in the glitch thread. That being said, I have noticed the same thing but never in a game. I've seen it only in the skill trainer. If it is speed threshold then it must be the ST at 50 bc I don't use that in my games.

I turned my ST all the way down right from the start and never even tried it at 50. Haha

Re: RB's Getting Bogged Down

has been noticed and i think someone said let the cpu control player for a sec or two then take control posedly worked for them

Re: RB's Getting Bogged Down

OP, what game speed are you playing on? Try it on normal and see if that fixes it. My experience was changing the game speed from slow to normal and that actually eliminated the problem. I first noticed it in skill trainer, but forgot to check on exhibition mode if there was a difference.....PS3 by the way....

it must be universal then. i play on slow and don't see it except in skill training which i assume is on normal.

Thats what I thought initally, but when changing to normal speed and then playing the skill trainer it went away completely.

Re: RB's Getting Bogged Down

I noticed it in a game and in skill trainer with a toss play. I'm playing on slow ST.

Exact same thing for me. Slow speed, PS3, regular exhibition game.

uh oh.... that is not good news. Is this after the little day one patch or before? Mine was during the early release version. I'll be upset if it's a slow only glitch since that's imo the best speed for this game to be played at and I'm sure will mess up a whole lot of the sliders people are setting up.

Re: RB's Getting Bogged Down

ive found that letting the computer take the first step after the pitch helps out with this.

Re: RB's Getting Bogged Down

I've played quite a few games using the option/shovel pass and haven't ever seen this behavior. I only ever play on default settings as well, so my sliders can't account for that.

Anyone have a video for this? I'd like to see what's going on.

Re: RB's Getting Bogged Down

I know exactly what you're talking about. It's like as soon as the user input takes control of that player's movement, there's a split second delay into that control and it's often just enough to give the defense time to get into position. And you start your acceleration over at that point as well, losing all momentum to gain the edge on a pitch or toss play.

I noticed this a ton while playing the skill trainer in the demo.

It was last Friday on the retail version, I havent had a chance to fire it up today. I hear you, I enjoyed using the slow speed on the demo and think that is what I want to use as long as this gets fixed.
