The Return of Terrible Kickers?!

In my San Diego State dynasty I have come across many teams missing PATs... Went and looked at the Freshman Kickers and noticed that I wasn't the only one that got screwed (I didn't get a single K commit, so I have a Walk On....

His Kick Power?.... - 40
Kick Accuracy?.... - 47
OVR?.... 43

There are 28 New Kickers with less than 50 KAC and 19 with less than 55 KPW.

A few interesting facts (in my dynasty anyway)...

Top Team's With Crap Freshman Kickers...

Ohio State (46 OVR)
Boise State (45 OVR)
Oregon State (45 OVR)
Mizzou (46 OVR)
UNC (46 OVR)
Penn State (48 OVR)
LSU (48 OVR)
Arizona St. (44 OVR)
K State (47 OVR)
...

Did I miss a patch or something?... Or is everyone getting this?

Re: The Return of Terrible Kickers?!

The game haws been like this since launch. Really don't know how EA can mess something up this bad, but they found a way, not surprising really either.

For some reason, Awareness matters for kickers too. Really effects their overall level.

Adjust your sliders; increase kicker accuracy and power. Problem solved.

But then you run the risk of allowing an actual Kicker to blast 70 yard kicks.

Sliders don't work for sim stats, so if I am not mistaken, these terrible kickers will be missing way too many PATs and FGs throughout the year.

Re: The Return of Terrible Kickers?!

No excuse for the lack of decent kickers. Every college program has at least one kicker on their roster that can kick it 35 yards. There are at least 10-20 kickers every year that can't even kick it 35 yards or more with any type of accuracy. That is just silliness.

No excuse.

Re: The Return of Terrible Kickers?!

Same goes for FB's and P's ... they are so lowly rated on the recruiting board that the top teams seem to ignore them and end up with walkon's.
