So I just started playing my trial for Madden 17. I'm having a huge issue running play-action passes. For some reason, after the fake, I can't do anything as the QB. The receiver icons don't show up, and I can't even sprint to avoid the pass rush. Has anyone else heard of this happening?

Yeah, I had an issue with PA while I was in Draft Champions. I streamed it over twitch if you want to verify this. My username there is kevlarAK.

I will have to play some more after I am done cooking on the grill. I may find myself too busy with family stuff to report back until tomorrow though.

Were you able to fix it somehow? I'm currently reinstalling to see if that helps.

Weird. I never had it happen to me during my trial.

I think it is part of the new PA mechanic, as the game does a better job selling the PA as a run. If the Icons come up, it sort of gives it away. I like how PA is now, but maybe they should adjust it so that it doesn't screw with offense so much.

I have no idea what caused it. It was incredibly frustrating though. Literally the only thing I could do was move the left stick. I couldn't even sprint. The good news is that reinstalling the game seems to have fixed it.

I was having this problem too. It stopped after I installed the commentary update but havent had much time to test.
