Overtime Rule messed up

[BellSKA]

This happens more often that not, but Overtime starting on the 25 does not work for me.

So after the end of the game we go to the overtime selection. This only happens when I am selected to "Go First".

But the game puts me on the other end of the field, not starting in the center, but on the right or left. Basically the last known place the ball was before the end of the game.

So I have to go the length of the field in OT just to score first.

Once I have finished my series, the game then moves the other Bot team to the 25.

Just a heads up, NEVER choose to play offense first! (If given the choice obviously)

Never seen this, but I always choose defense first if I win. But one time in OT I scored first and forced a 4th and long and the CPU punted it. I think some of the logic for edge cases like OT games wasn't fully tested.

I never have a chance to pick because the OT post-coin toss selection screen goes away before I can even read the options.

Re: Overtime Rule messed up

I've had this happen, but it was following a missed last second field goal by the CPU. They missed as time ran out, and when I got the ball first on offense in OT I was on my own 40 something yard line.

Did you have a similar thing happen? That or maybe a failed 4th down attempt? Any time I've had games go to OT without a last minute missed FG the ball is in the right spot for the opening drive.

Yeah, this is exactly what I´m talking about. It´s always a HailMary or last second attempt.

I have also had it like other posters mentioned. I have never been given the chance to select. It just skipped to OT with me on Offense.
