Do corners in zone play the outside curls tighter, especially in Cover 3?

Last year curls to the outside were money vs. zone. Even the best corners would watch the ball be completed before reacting.

Btw, anything I can't answer or am not sure of, I won't. I'm erring on the side of caution since details aren't out yet
are there any new camera angles?

"Smarter" is a subjective thing. I can't really answer that. What I can say is that they do have access to the same tools that users do. The AI blocked at least 1 of my kicks.

(I'm being slightly vague here because I don't want to create an idea as to how often it happens. Since it's still being tuned, I honestly don't know how it'll be when you play it. But it did happen)

On lower difficulties, there is a button prompt that will pop over the ball carrier's head indicating that you should do a certain move. It's optional on any difficulty but defaults to on for rookie and I think pro.

Can you expand more on altered? Do defensive ends get more pressure? I know this was one of the main complaints in 16.

I am going to err on the side of caution and say this is an impression.

However, I can say that the new types of zone coverages should help alleviate this, in theory.
