KR Doesn't overshoot it, and the Kickoff team still keeps going. This is how it should be, all the time.

Both of those have the same thing happening....but there is only one dot fast enough to deal with it. The second dot from the right stops moving down field 20 yards away from the ball while it is still on the ground. It only happens for a second on both kickoffs, but it's there.

Here found one where they don't stop

This is how it SHOULD happen though.

Anything would be better than the current code. Just making sure the returner always got to the ball, even if that meant giving him an artificial speed boost until he caught the ball, is better. Or having him somehow know exactly where it was going to come down and never start far from there. I'd say never have him overshoot instead, but some of these aren't the returner overshoot but just that he can't get to the ball.

I understand there shouldn't be non-fumble turnovers on kickoffs; that's how it is in real life on non-onside kicks. But the kicking team's players' stopping short, as if to intentionally give the returner a chance to get the ball, isn't the answer.

Better solution is to have the coverage team keep coming as close to the returner (maybe within 1-2 yards) and then wait until they collect the ball to make the tackle, instead of simply stopping and waiting at the 50-45 yd line.

Of course, still do not allow for the coverage team to get to the ball before the returner does, as this would still achieve the goal of no COP unless on a fumble on KR.


This is an example

whats amazing is that all PR seem to know where the punt will land even if its 30 yards over/under the punter's average. but for some reason, KRs are stupid and miss the KO on a somewhat regular basis. i'd rather have every drive start on the 20 vs the total crap that is currently coded on KR.

In reality they wait a few yards away form the return man, I agree this should of been fixed seasons ago. The way it is now you give the guy 40 yards to pick it up and make a run and Ive seen a lot fo times they score because of it. I'd perfer to see them to keep running and then hold their lanes a few yds away form the return man then make the tackle.

WOAH. I found a play where it works as it should O.o

http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=1881720&pbp_id=10785214

apart from the coverage team still running in straight lines,that is.

Kick coverage dots stop even if the ball is fielded:

It's time to fix the pile of crap they call special teams, especially if they're planning on taking this thing out of beta.

I like this one. This is what should happen every time the ball sails over the KR's head.

You should be able to choose to have a 2 KR set up, which would prevent this from happening nearly as often.

I'd like some options with STs. Kickoff Left,Right,Middle, 2 Kr Return, KR Right,Left,Middle, Fake Punt, Punt Block, etc.

I'd like for this to be fixed first, at least.
