    yup. frustrating. the whole R-stick thing needs to be addressed way more clearly. the stupid instruction manual just tells you to use it, it doesnt tell you what direction does what. thats annoying, wheres the rip, wheres the spin, the swim, bull rush...WTF!?! it leaves you on an island when it comes to pass rush. stoopid lazy *** EA.


    on a side note for wildcat disappointment: one thing i've been doing, and it killed the Jets, but didn't fair that well against the Pats in my season, is putting P.White in as qb in the doubles/trips shotgun, and letting him sort of run with it. on 3rd and short, its hard to stop.

    Ya i do the same thing, every once in a while i will sub pat white in as my QB in a shotgun package and take off with him, hes usually good for atleast 10 yards on a run, and also has a decent arm

    I go into the second half playing a guy, beating him 24-0. He quits on me and I opt to finish out against the CPU. I end up losing like 27-24 because of Adrian Peterson. Ridiculous.

    Why does there have to be a "fight for the fumble" every ****ing time? It is clear who gets the ball some times, just give them the ****ing possession.

    Ya its ridiculous, i turned it off after the first time it was stupid. Its the same thing with first downs, i will clearly get a first down yet they pull out the sticks. Sometimes i get the feeling that its predetermined as well. It seems i clearly get the first down yet when they pull the sticks out they will say im short and sometimes ill be short but when they pull the sticks out they give me the first down

    I turned it off, but it does the animations still. I just don't press anything.

    That could work, i might have to try that because Merling/Langford just aren't getting me any pressure. Who are your 3 LBs in the 46? Porter, Crowder and Wake?

    When I played my first game against Atlanta in All-Pro, I sacked Ryan with J-Peezy on the third play... 4 man rush. Maybe I should switch to All Madden, I wound up winning 55-13 or something like that...

    I thought it would be a good idea to sim through the entire preseason.. wound up losing Crowder for 7 weeks, Smiley for 10 weeks, and Bess for the season... so lame.

    I found out why I was having such a tough time after 3 games of "my skill." It was a higher setting than all-madden at that point. I switched it to all-madden, but still couldn't get pressure on the QB.

    Don't be a pansy and turn sim injuries off either.

    This game is starting to really piss me off. Adrian Peterson is ****ing unstoppable. The same goes for Tom Brady and Wes Welker.

    I'm so tired of the stupid animations everytime you are within a yard of the goalline or the first down marker.

    I had both White and Henne throw 10 yards to the left of a wide open receiver 10 yards downfield who was just standing there, and those throws turned into Pck 6s. They were inthe game because Penny was hurt. I get about 5 injuries per game.

    I'm having more and more complaints everyday.

    Without a doubt.

    The complete lack of user pass rush/OL play is such bull****.

    I've simmed about 6 games and played 4. Jake Long on the season has 12 pancakes, and allowed 13 sacks. Such bull crap.

    The Colts WR (Pierre Garcon) wound up with like 12 rec for 200+ yards against me... I think he broke 3 tackles for every reception he got...

    There is one annoying problem about getting rid of the ball as you get hit: there are no intentional grounding flags.

    There is no penalty for IG if you're hit, it is an outside influence that is stopping the QB. The key word is intentional :tongue2:
