It's lifeless and soulless because EA doesn't use motion capture. That is the main reason I'm turned off by this game. I'm not trying to compare but this is fact. The people over at 2K has master the art of motion capture and implementing it in their games. 2K bring in real pro players to do mo-cap every year.

Motion cap bring an element of life that no computer generated program can do. I just wish EA use their resources like they should so we can enjoy a good football game.

I think it is a bug.

I was a bit excited after playing the demo but I just played three games online and it does seem a bit souless.

It's really not that much different. I don't know if I would play it that much if I bought it since its more of the same.

Does online seem a bit laggy to anyone else?

It doesn't seem as smooth as last year.

Coach skills, goals and XP or extremely addicting.

I'm on ps3 and it's a bug filled experience. Things have improved from the demo but critical game changing bugs/issues exist and it's often Cpu getting called for Delay of game after scoring a TD. Game just sits at the endzone as the playclock counts down After int's the ball spot is completely wrong. It has some good things going for it but just the 2 above mentioned can drastically change the outcome of a game

yeah, i'm with you for the most part. on ps3 myself and through 1 full game, i didn't see any celebration after touchdowns, no commentary, nothing. just the camera on the ball in the endzone with the clock ticking. don't get me started on the jaggies and the absurdly blurry mess during user-replays.

i'm liking the way it's playing for the most part, but the frame rate is struggling pretty badly also, at least before and after plays. i can't put my finger on it, but it "hitches" in spots. i'm certainly going to give it a few more games, but season ticket might be it for me this year. sad.

I agree. Every game feels the same. Every team just about runs that poorly implemented no huddle. Not too many "Wow" moments. It's a solid game. Probably the best of the generation, but that is a backhanded compliment.

Totally not true. While working on settings I had to raise the cpu up from 0 as after Some 3 or so possesions the cpu was 1-10 passing.
Some balls not even remotely close to wr.

So for me the acc sliders seem to work fine.
