    Created players not celebrating?

    I've noticed created players do not celebrate at all when they score a touchdown. Not a BIG deal, but it kills some the immersion for me.

    I was wondering for guys who simmed. Is this the case for generated rookies or is this just CAP issue?

    I have some generated rookies that celebrate and some that don't I think it's the emotion rating or something like that.

      That's good to hear. Guessing it doesn't work at all for CAPs.

        I created a running QB for an offline franchise and every time I scored a running TD he just dropped the ball as soon as he crossed the goaline... It looked like the Calvin Johnson rule every time he scored... turned and ran towards the sideline emotionless every. single. time.

          My WR doesn't do it, just keeps the ball and runs bck to the sideline. the DE i made has done it a couple times but its usually just a small celebration and then goes back to walking, nothing like the Antonio Smith/JJ Watt moves

            Yeah, it sucks. They celebrate on picks and sacks though, but not on TDs which kinda kills it a little for me after a big play.

              Not only do they not celebrate but the announcers doesn't even say their names.

                Is anyone else experiencing a dread issue? 7 of my 8 draft picks have dreads...

                  I totally understand that a lot of people like the celebrating thing... personally, for me, it's just some excuse to showboat and bring attention to themselves when, if it weren't for their 10 teammates on the field, they wouldn't be in the end zone to begin with...

                  Marcus Allen, one of the greatest backs ever - HOF, Super Bowl MVP - said, 'When you score, act like you've been there before.'

                  A lot of great ones didn't do the whole "Look at ME" thing... so it doesn't bother me at all...

                  I don't know why this would kill immersion for anyone, when you still see players act like mature men when they score and not little boys who scored their first ever TD... And no, I am NOT taking EA's side on this... God knows I could compile a massive list of all that is wrong with this game... but players - SOME players not celebrating is hardly anything to get bummed out about... at least, in my eyes.

                    I have no problem with not celebrating, it's the fact that they always instantly turn around and either drop the ball or hold it til the sidelines. If they just patted a teammate on the back and went to the sidelines it would be cool, it's just really awkward how it is.

                      jesus man, relax. so 60,000 people in the stands can celebrate a touchdown but if a person who took part in scoring it celebrates, even uniquely, its childish? yikes.

                      i can understand a person who's celebrates touchdowns expecting his videogame counterpart to do the same.

                        Well, if you read my post, I said that I understand how some people like the celebrating. But I also said that if certain players don't celebrate, I don't see that as being an immersion killer.

                        Believe me, there's plenty of things wrong with this game... that some players don't celebrate is so far down the list that it's not even on the radar in my opinion.

                          Celebration has always been a big part of the game. Very low percentage of athletes that don't celebrate. It's the people that never played the game or couldn't play it well who uses terms like immature and grow up. It's creativity and it has and always will be an exciting part of the game.

                            Well, just so you know, I did play the game and was a pretty darn good wide receiver too. From 4th grade through college. The fact that I don't care for celebrating, for me, goes back to Deion Sanders and all of his crap. And probably 99% of the guys that celebrate today, all grew up watching Sanders.

                            Just... you know... to set the record straight...

                              I like that you had to throw in this entirely unrelated remark just to keep your internet cred.
