Another typical game I played last night in my OD. I am OU, the CPU is Colorado.
1st half. Game is totally realistic. I'm up 21-3 or so going into halftime. I made a couple mistakes, should had more points, but whatever. My Defense is playing well, getting pressure on their QB, my superior DB are playing their inferior WR's closely. I'm running the ball, and passing it successfully.
2nd half - Uh oh. They come out blazing their QB goes like 12-12 for the half, they have receivers running WIDE open every play regardless of what defense I run....I get no pressure on their QB. I go look at the replays, my DB's who were playing them like white on rice in the 1st half, are now running AWAY from their WRs allowing them to get wide open. WTH???? C'mon EA seriously.
But wait it gets better....then Landry Jones, who's suddenly not able to avoid getting his passes knocked down by cpu linemen, somehow get's injured for the rest of the game on a hit that occured well after the throw(still dont see why this issue hasn't been tweaked)...backup comes in completes a pass, and my WR has NO ONE in front of him, and fumbles on a shoe string tackle. I'm supremely ticked by this point.... They score again, next thing I know I'm LOSING 25-24 with under 1 min to play.
This is the kind of stuff I've dealt with seemingly every game since that last patch came out. The cheap fumbling has always been an issue, but combine that with the way the game completely DISREGARDS player ratings when the CPU goes on a tear, and it makes for a eye-rolling "c'mon, WTH is that" type of game.
