Reading through the thread it seems like a blessing in disguise for us 360 users. The heart of the offline dynasty mode is recruiting, so I still have my fingers crossed

oooohhh I think xbox got the tuner and not the patch.. and the patch fixes the glitch cause it sill works but the other things are already here.

Ok, video examples. This was a lobby game against a pretty cool guy, he was Georgia, I was Boise State (wanted to have Kellen Moore to throw with).

First video is him on the goal line. My defense is in 4-3 Cover 2 Buc with coach settings at aggressive zone, meaning everyone is tight. Cover 2 Buc is Flat/Hook/Hook/Hook/Flat across.

If you pause at 2 seconds, you will see my two LBs standing next to each other guarding grass. Go a little further and you see my CB in the flat zone sit and watch the play, not even attempting to cover the guy who ended up catching the TD pass. Not a single one even made an effort to play the ball or cover a guy as he crossed through their zone.

This video was him running a bunch formation wheel route. I don't remember the play call for my defense, but it was a Cover 3 shell with a buzz and two hook zones underneath with the left CB blitzing. You will note that I have THREE defenders within a few steps of each other, both hook zones and the right deep third zone. The CB in right deep third zone is sprinting with his back to the play (and out of position) and the guy just throws the wheel behind him while he isnt' looking. All the other zone defenders are watching the play but him.

This one is my favorite in WTF moments in NCAA history.

Here I am in straight man to man defense, nothing fancy, it is just man to man with a corner blitz, I was manually controlling the free safety (you can see me chasing the quick out route on the side). Note the LB guarding the TE #7. #7 runs a simple quick curl route, my LB stays with him until the guy sprints out. Then my defender guarding #7 inexplicably starts mirroring the QB has he sprints. He doesn't go after him, he just mirrors him. Obviously this leaves #7 wide open, who he throws to and gets a huge gain.

I mean what the hell?

Lastly we have this gem. Again, I am in straight man to man coverage, in this case my linebacker is assigned to the RB on the left. There is no play action, there is no misdirection, the HB simply runs a route to the flat. Yet my LB inexplicably runs like 5 yards the other direction before slamming on the brakes and trying to chase down the RB, who was obviously wide open by this time. It is as if my LB was confused on his assignment and initially wanted to guard the back on the other side.

Yeah, the pass defense really got improved.

in the first video the corner did make a play but he was in position to break the pass up. the two after looks like play calling issue, and the last one try pass committing maybe the LB wont do the false step.

Tip: 43 normal under ram buck (spread your LBs) the blitzing LB gets alot of preasure forcing hurried passes. And you still have a S deep.

The CB only attempted to make a play when I user clicked on him after the ball was in the air. That is the flail you see, me trying to get lucky.

As for the other two being a play calling issue, are you kidding me? A 3 deep shell vs a wheel route is about as good of a play call as you can get. The problem was that I had 3 guys covering the same area and my deep third on that side was running with his back to the play (seriously, why?).

The one after after that was a perfect play call, a CB blitz forcing him out of the pocket and man to man coverage vs. Stick. My LB was sitting on the quick curl just like he was supposed to until he just leaves for no reason. What else can I do?

Your complaining that people found the holes in your zone... thats how you beat zone defense. by finding the holes. you want pass defense to be unbeatable or what?

Looks like the corner was trying to get deep to keep the inside guy running the streak in front of him. But he should be bailing rather than running with his back to the ball. But against cv3 the flats wil be open and wheels will be open because the corner is bailing out of there. some one else should of went to the flats.

it looked like the QB broke contain and the LB was gonna try to stop the scramble. Was your QB contain on aggressive?
