Its not about forgetting, their is only so much time in each cycle. And yes, skating is gone (as of the builds we played). You can actually see the field come up from them cutting in some instances.

Did you ever see the ball go through the players body into the opponents hands? Or see the ball go through anything unrealistic at all?

No sir, and from what we saw the d line/linebacker super jump was gone.

Thank goodness.

Remember in '11 when a running back could run through a 335 pound DT like they were a kicker? Please tell me thats gone.

Also what about "jersey pulls"? Like for example a guy trying to make a tackle goes for broke and pulls a guy down by his jersey.

Wow. Good news.

This one bothered me a lot. So far so good.

1) i didnt notice any crazy field goal attempts by the cpu. And on that note say bye bye to 99 kpwr kickers that consistantly hit 60+ yard field goals. Not gonna happen at this point, it got tweaked... no more donkey field goals.

2) I have no clue on your other 2 questions.
