Re: Why pass interference sliders don't work

The only way to fix this is to have illegal contact and defensive holding penalties have their own sliders and actually trigger an animation with a play call.


I think EA has handled penalties in a silly way. They don't need to be procedural, pregenerate the number of holding calls in a game, etc... at the start of the game and randomly assign them to plays during the game. Users would never know and the animations and replay could look great since it could be staged. You could even simplify sliders so setting a slider to 4 would have a max of 4 holding calls per game. Penalties are random anyway and it would allow them to setup the game with minimal penalties for the twitch crowd and still give sim players a real world experience with great visuals.
great idea, im tired of throwing to a WR on a slant play and he gets pushed and either gets INT and yet nothing gets called...sometimes it happens so much i dont even want to finish the game
