    Problem:

    CPU threw an INT in the endzone and my guy went out of bounds right away and they gave me the TD and 120 yards NCAA record return xp points.

    In another game, my DB picked off a pass on my 30 yarddline and went out of bounds right away like the endzone TD.. the placed me at the 30 yard line of my opponent instead of taking over on my side ball.

    Clearly, an issue when INT and giong out of bounds, the game will think it happened on the other side of the field.

    Online Dynasty

    I created my leagues online dynasty, with all the created coaches set to Level 1 at the beginning. Now in the commish tools menu, under dynasty settings, it gives me the option change the "Coach Starting Level" which is currently set at 1. I change it to 3 and then exit the menu, but it does not take the change. It keeps resetting it back to 1. Every other change I make in the dynasty settings sticks, except for this one.

    Starting Legendary Vets up tonight, so I'll add if we run into anything. I did ask a couple of guys to check their coaching goals in preseason and they were there for them. Hopefully they earn XP after week 1 is done.

    2. The user kickoff power slider is broken. I kept dropping it down to 0 and it had no effect (Heisman).

    3. More feedback than a bug, but the read option is definitely overpowered. I can average 8-10 ypc with Tommy Rees (on the read option only) on sliders that have CPU rush d at 100 and user run block at 15.

    Problem:

    When playing on "slow" speed, when pitching the ball in the option, the running back will "stop" or "stutter" and lose all momentum.

    You can't change coach starting level after you have already started.

    I just had an interception bug. I threw a pick (I'm FAU), that the defense (Miami U) caught at MY 8 yard line and went out of bounds. Should have 92 yards to go. Instead on the very next play they have the ball, 1st and 10, at MY 8 yard line with only 8 yards to go. That is nuts. They need to get a patch out for that ASAP. What a joke.

    The problem then to me anyway, would be that EA left the option in there "post dynasty set-up". All the other none-reversible options are removed from the settings once the dynasty is created, if they can't be changed (like coach progression speed) but this option still stays in the menu and is adjustable, suggesting to me that it would be able to be changed. Not a big deal, though.

    Always

    Problem #2: I am sure this has been mentioned already. The EA Sports Highlights doesn't work at all. After the game if I select the option, nothing comes up at all. Also, none of the scoring replays are available post-game, even though it gives you the option to see them.

    Description of problem:
    I posted about this bug from the demo here:
    and it's running rampart in retail. There are several default playbooks that, when you run a no huddle, won't give you plays with the correct personnel (it seems to be far worse with 10 or 00 personnel and your only play options have 21, 22, 11, etc personnel instead). I just created a CPB and a couple of my 11 personnel formations had this issue, but every single 10, 01, and 00 formation gave me the wrong personnel. My CPB has these 10/01/00 formations:
    SG 5 WR
    SG 5 WR TRIPS
    SG BUNCH QUADS
    SG EMPTY TREY
    SG SPREAD
    SG SPREAD FLEX
    SG SPREAD OFFSET
    SG TREY 4 WR STR
    SG TRIO 4 WR STR
    and all of them only give me choices of at least 11 personnel with some offering only 20 or 21 personnel. The formation F TWINS OVER is the option for a lot of these formations in no huddle.

    Drifterbub --

    This bug isn't specific to no huddle, it's a bug with personnel based play calling where the wrong formations are getting associated with some formations. I found this by selecting plays by personnel instead of by formation and a bunch of them are wrong in there (and that's obviously how they're being selected while doing no huddle). For my CPB, which has 28 formations, I think 9 or 10 of them were wrong. I uploaded this video here which shows my formations while using "by personnel" and list off the ones that are wrong and which are right.

    Here's 1 more data point for the above bug. The bug has to do with the order of the formations in the pb. I created a CPB with every 00 and 01 personnel formations first (so they're at the top of my formation list instead of at the bottom in my previous CPB) and then I added some 2x personnel formations. This time all of the 00 and 01 formations were correct, but most of the 2X formations were wrong as they were using all of the 00/01 formations' plays instead.

    In summary, in general formations towards the bottom of the formation list (which means they were added to the CPB later) are incorrectly using plays from towards the top of the list (those added first).

    It's annoying enough for a guy like me that runs no huddle all the time, but it's gonna suck ass for everyone when you're down late in the game and you need to go hurry up. Since you need to score in a hurry you're gonna wanna pass so you'll likely want 4 or 5 WRs on the field and it's gonna really suck when, on that 2nd play, you're WRs are lining up in the backfield.....

    I was running as a Defensive Coordinator as Idaho, against Wyoming. Wyoming running no huddle, lined up in what apprears to be the Spread Normal HB Wk formation, and the center snaps it, it clears his ass and the ball zooms directly left to the far left receiver(15 yards away) immediately. The receiver just stands there, doesn't move, my guys tackle him, play over.

    Weird, and probably impossible to replicate, but just making you aware.

    edit :

    Follow up, they continued the drive, and each time it happened after that until a loss of yardage. When I had a man defense, he wasn't covered by anybody. The QB still behind the center in shotgun as well. Seems like a weird thing, I was also running the 4-2-5 for what it's worth. I got a video of the second play here.

    Were they running wildcat before that? I know in the demo if you no huddle to a normal play from a wildcat the ball was snapped directly to the HB (who was the one taking the snap in the wildcat). Maybe the WR was in the wildcat and they switched to a normal play after that.

    Description of problem: Online offsides glitch. Will give you a loss if you select quit and count game. Fortunately a buddy already had this happen to him so I just turned off my system and didn't get the L but would have otherwise. Sad that this stuff turns up every year. :rolleyes:

    Drifterbub Here is the video. I saw it twice in the early release and once in the demo. Haven't seen it in retail but haven't played may games vs CPU yet.

    I'll let them know, but if you see it happen in retail (I haven't either), then we'll bump it up the priority list for things for them to debug.

    Are you sure you get a loss? I had this happen to me last night and didn't think twice about it until I read your post today. I had just assumed I got the win. I checked my record and I only have 2 0-0 games in my last 15 so it has to be one of those (I won them both).

    Is there a reason Rice's jerseys have numbers on the sleeves and on the shoulders??
