Sweet Crude
I've been playing online for the first time and it's driving me nuts. I've played okay...I've won 3 out of 6 games. Except two of my wins didn't count because people are "glitching". I'm not really sure how they do it, but it seems to be a common occurance online.
The first game I lost made me think online play was going to be sweet. I played against a pretty decent player and we went down to the wire. He eventually his a field goal to beat me by 3.
Every game after that has just been frustrating. People don't play how the game was intended. They come up with "cheesing" plays, or ways to take advantage of gameplay glitches. I played a guy who "analog blitzed", which takes advantage of a glitch that allows you to jump of the line of scrimmage at full speed, which is too fast for the player to be picked up by any lineman who are still moving at normal speed.
I also ran into a guy that took advantage of a glitch that will direct snap to the Wide Receiver. This play has no defense that I can find (because it's not even a natural play on the game).
The next guy I played with Georgia and he would roll left. If youy were in man coverage, he would run it with his QB for a sure 10-15 yards. If you were in zone, or had a spy on him...he would LAUNCH it all the way down the field to exploit a game glitch that makes it way to easy to complete jump balls. Fred Gibson had 154 yards on 3 receptions in the first half before I quit out of anger.
I guess online play is full of these morons that think it's more fun to win using the same plays, or by exploiting the games issues. I don't think I'm anything great, and so I don't mind losing. I just want to learn how to play better and I want to have fun with a decent football simulation...I don't want to learn how to take advantage of computer AI.
I'd rather be 0-100 playing things legitimatly. I'm so angry right now. I pray I never run into any of these "cheesers" on the street, because I won't be responsible for my actions.
