My work-a-round solution for the no huddle glitch and messed up coverage was to delete the title update. the game plays pretty well without it and i can run my no huddle now.

Didn't you notice the CPU qb scrambling way too much tho

not too bad, the coverage stopping and letting the streaking recievers by was awful for me. its not too bad without the patch. i increased the threshold to 60, pass coverage to 65 and the defense is alot better. i didnt have this problem before this last patch.

I barely get a chance to play, so today was the first day I was able to play with this patch. I used a couple of B rated teams in a play now/exhibition game, and it seemed like my offensive line had no clue who to block - more so than before. But I didn't make it out of the 3rd quarter because of a between quarters freeze.

Yeah, the safety play is frustrating - it might be a little better - but the freezes are extremely horrible.

You are right in that many college teams run a successful no huddle though. I do think this is something of a hiccup. Not really a bug/glitch. A glitch would be how they screwed up no huddle last year. I don't want this patched at all in the event it damages something even more. I'm actually satisfied.

I have lurked through these forums for years, and these no huddle glitch comments have made me create an account. First and foremost, the no huddle "I can't hear you" problem is 100% without any doubt, a major glitch. This is not realistic in any way. There is no way the dev team would have put this in the game. In college, the teams that run the no huddle run the no huddle well. The purpose of the no huddle is to give the defense minimal time to react, and the offenses that run the no huddle make sure that communication is not an issue. That's why it's the receivers and backs looking to the sideline. They are getting hand signals or in some cases number's/pictures, and don't have to worry about hearing anything. The quarterback ONLY and I mean ONLY verbally relay information to the offensive line. Watch Oklahoma run their offense. Backs and receivers look at the sideline at 3 different coaches in a different color shirt making signals, sometimes only one coach is live, sometimes they are all live but signaling different groups (RB and FB, QB and receivers), but I cannot stress to you enough how in the no huddle offense, the quarterback and receivers do not interact with each other when the play is called/changed. Before the patch, EA did this pretty well. After the patch, they broke it. This was not a deliberate change, it couldn't be. These animations have been in the game for years, but only when you audibled and changed the play in a hostile stadium, in which case the quarterback is changing the play himself. There is no way to defend this as being "just an unrealistic change to the no huddle." This is not a change to it, this is a glitch.

You increased user or CPU coverage to 65.

Well the no huddle glitch cost me an OD win today, I had to burn my final two timeouts because of the glitch. When I used the "work around" to reset the play to cancel it, it switched my play back to the original formation.

Originally I was in 4WR Trio Str with the trips to the field on the LEFT. I ran flood, completed a pass for a first down, got tackled in bounds. I went no huddle, called the same play but with the trips to the field on the RIGHT. When I went to reset the play to cancel the no huddle animation, it flipped my formation to Trips left and I had to burn a timeout. Just splendid.
