Until EA fixes this, all pump fakes will be considered against the rules.

apparently it came about after this latest patch

I can honestly say I haven't used a pumpfake on the last 5 game versions. It's never been needed and I always found it questionable if used more than once a game.

i always wish people used the pump fake more. it seems like a logical thing for the qb to use. now granted i dont know if it had a unfair advantage and the AI couldnt process the pump fakes but i think that if used in realistic spots it'd be pretty cool to see. i dont ever get enough time to use it. someone used it against me on a out and up and it was badass and my cb fell down... thought it was pretty cool.

None of the video's are working right now...Aj's or the one's I posted in the admin section that shows this. Maybe EA has found out about it and taken the video's down or are trying to fix it.

Did you try At the title screen, quickly press Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, B, A.

Works for me.

I wish I could see the video. I've used pump fakes every now and then when defense is in zone. They hardly ever worked. I haven't used it since the update though.

After the pump fake all 11 guys come after the QB no one stays in coverage leaving WRs wide open.

Exactly. I thought it was going to be a stutter step type, but they all stop, and all 11 defenders stop, turn to the QB and sprint in a straight line to the QB

I don't know what's more funny, the fact that a QB would pump fake backwards or the fact that 11 guys would chase the pump fake action that direction.

Wow... You just snap it run backwards and pump fake? That's bad...

Yeah, needless to say I'll be avoided ranked games until this is resolved.

So it's not regular pump fakes? It's when you are running backwards and pump fake backwards? So this really shouldn't affect our league being able to pump fake since we'll know if someone's doing this glitch as opposed to just pump faking.
