Subject: Dealing with over the shoulder catches pt.2 Tue Mar 08, 2011 4:49 pm
i made the same post in the 1 month the game came out and i still cant stop the BS. Overshoulder catch is what ea created for noobs to make user catches they took alway the rocket catch that skill ans practice but added this G A Y animation that the defender cant interact with. If anybody knows how to stop it please let me know..... I tried triple coverage on a 3rd and 13 and still got the catch.

Ian Cummings peruses these forums, occasionally...it'd be nice to see him step up/man up and detail why smallbrained kids are able to do this...
He wants realistic football. He's always said that. Football is a complicated sport. You can't make a realistic football game and at the same time, preach that it's EASY to pick up the sticks and beat someone else.
I'm better than 95% of the guys I've played this year. That's not bullshit. Ian's game only allows me (you, your brother, etc...) to beat guys that you KNOW you are better than about 50-55% of the time, though. You can't argue that.

I've officially made NBA 2k11 my title of choice lately. It's more realistic. While I'm still caking up on the Madden, I simply don't have the drive to play it if it's not for the C4 league, or to help me make a little side-spending/airfare for Baltimore tournament...

I fricken lost two c4 games to guys that ran strong close and sg snugs exclusively I shut down the strong close but the two slant outs and two streaks I didnt well enough. I had the gaints and none of there corners are above 6 foot and with dallas clark or fred davis on the outside those cb are no match. I had several thriple coverage completions and I dont remember any slant outs that were completed with out doubled coverage. I would simply click on and swat but those d@mn cbs arent 6'2" like the raiders so they were helpless. When I would user it with the safety over the top and be in perfect position for the pick I would never catch it because of the sideline. Also the two streaks are open eventually as well. You know the game is broken when a cover 4 with or with coverage shaded out cant stop two slants and a streak. it was weird ive never been exploited like that I basically didnt care after two of the bail out plays. It almost felt like I got cheated like i got my fg lagged. Just *** because serious it would of been shutdown with the raiders. But seriously bring heat and bump and run. ea, 1. Picks need to happen on the sideline, people are like noone is open fck it i cant get picked on the sideline, d@mn 30 yard completion in triple coverage. 2. a cover 4 needs to cover two streaks and two slant outs fix the d@mn locomotion this didnt work last year. 3. Over the shoulder catch is worst, take it out asap the rc should be the best catch animation. 4. the man switches are crazy I bet 80 of people that play madden cant stop stick in man coverage. 5. why is snugs always the formation that is best to exploit maddens flaws. flats, slants streaks, and stick, but there will be another way next year as well most likely.
this current gm either pisses me off so i get the lab and stop this bs, or I just stop playing for the day. But, I bet most just leave the gm.

PS I had the Raiders and it did not matter - slants were open all day if I usered one he would throw to the other or hit the streaks.

1. Don't play zone coverage, 2. Go for the swat vs the int. A
lso, make sure you user the short side of the field against the 1 WR in bunch. Sidelines are tough, the best QB's seem to make those throws though in real life. Manning can drop it right in on anyone.
