BTW has anybody tried playing defense against a no-huddle offense? Is the issue the same?
Yes. From what I read, and posted here last night, this No-Huddle glitch affects offense and defense and it also affects Custom Playbooks as well as Team Specific playbooks... meaning you are screwed no matter what you use.
I know I've been extremely hard on EA the past few days because, as I see it, there's no excuse for a game to come out and be completely and totally unplayable for nearly two months while EA tucks their tail between their legs and hides.
But this so-called "patch" is an unmitigated disaster and so far, EA has turned this Summer/early Fall into a colossal failure. How do they spend this much time on something, only to return w/ one of the big feature's from last year - No-Huddle - being broken like this?
Like many, I don't use No-Huddle... but what about at the end of the game when you are down by 26-31 w/ 1:21 on the clock, the ball at your own 12 yard line and no timeouts? Everyone saying it's no big deal needs to realize... it is a big freaking deal. The No-Huddle as it is, was a huge selling point last year... remember??? "Now when you go to No-Huddle you'll have your entire playbook from which to choose your play!"
Now that's broken too. I'm just stunned that a company can be so inept.
HELL YEAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VTECH schedule is fixed i can finally get my VTECH long term dynasty under way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET EM ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good job EA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Down 26-31 with 1:21 left on the clock at my own 12? Then choose a different formation and run a play, it isn't that hard. I have 9 different plays to choose from every formation. Strong, pro, shot gun, goal line, all that. It's not a big deal.
So far after this SJSU (me) vs Stan game I'm playing
- No huddle is glitched like it has been confirmed
- Super LB's seem gone but I'll hold judgement
- Psychic defenses seem gone, had a safety keep running to his zone with his back turned and didn't make a play on the ball until he turned around and saw the ball in the air.
- O-Line actually is capable of doing something now.. not playing like a sieve, haven't been sacked yet. Been hurried once.
- Mountain West had their new logo patched in
- Coaching carousel seems to be running better in terms of hiring logic (Duke HC took a Penn State job) normally it would've been something ridiculious like Tulane's DC taking over at Penn State and the Duke HC taking over for the Tulane DC.
If progression could be fixed, well damn it would be beautiful. Dynasty just needs a bit more tuning and it will actually be close to where I want it to be. For all the complaints I saw with the PS3 users, the only true issue thus far I have seen is the no huddle glitch. Which in this tug of war of bugs, I'll take.
The game feels much smoother, the defense stops me and I don't feel cheated, and the offensive line picking up their correct blocks is great. Obviously that's early impressions and hopefully not placebo.
No huddle is glitched for sure, but it shouldn't matter at all because i don't use custom playbooks that has all Shot Gun formations, i like to mix it up with Ace, Weak, Strong..kinda like the pro playbook.

You are missing the point. You don't have access to your entire playbook! How much more simple do I have to make this? There's videos of this and God knows how many pages of people talking about this. It is a huge deal because A:} There are many people who run No-Huddle... B:} It is one thing that was fine pre-patch but is now broken... C:} Not everybody runs the same type of playbook as you do, like Wyoming's base PB... which has 2 formations... ACE and SHOTGUN... so now, instead of having access to the entire Wyoming PB, you will have a total of one set in ACE and one set in Shot-Gun.
And considering Wyoming has a multitude of Shot-Gun formations, this is a huge deal. Same thing w/ the R&S and Air Raid offenses.
ha **** this, didnt even fix my dynasty problem where i cant get to the offseason. Waited 2 months to get to tnch ofhe offseason and nothing except a bunch of dashed hopes.
I didn't care for this until someone brought up 2 minute drill and then playing the CPU against it. It's not a gamebreaker for me, but I can see how it is for others.
The videos are to just let everyone see what the issue is. You guys were confusing the hell out of me trying to explain it.

This.
Here is what i thought you PS3 users were saying yesterday.
When you run a no huddle, go into shot gun formation, you only get access to three plays, and three plays only. Regardless, it's a issue that needs to be addressed

Thank you for taking the time to make the videos. Some people are "visual" and understand things better when seeing it... so your videos will go a long ways in helping explain this mess. Your time and effort are appreciated!
