Are FG's/PAT's broken?

Forgive me if it's already been discussed elsewhere. Currently my kicker is shanking all user FG's and PAT's but other kicks/punts are fine. Did the last patch do this? If so, wtf.

I've noticed that if you kick a fg/pat, you can't hit x at the top of the meter. Instead you have to time to where the x is on the kicking meter itself. When I hit x at the top of the meter, the kick would be way short.

Yeah I tried to play around with it in practice mode but could only make 1 FG out of 10 or so. Interesting how something this noticeable went unnoticed before the "patch" was sent out.

I haven't missed an XP or FG since the tuner so I'm not sure what you're doing

Whats the purpose of the "sky" punt? and the other type of non normal punt?

You call sky punt if you are punting from the 40 or so and want to pin them inside the 20. It's much higher than a normal punt so it won't travel far. It also has a better chance of not bouncing in the end zone. Gives your players more time to run under it to down it inside the 15 or so

The back spin one is pretty self explanatory. To put back spin on the ball so it won't go into the end zone when try punt inside the 10-6

Re: Are FG's/PAT's broken?

I know this will seem silly, but are you sure you understand how it works?

We had a guy in a league last year(when the white arrows were part of the kicking game) who had no idea that you had to keep the kick in between the arrows in order for it to be accurate. it happens.
