Lobby game bug

Post by SuperJakeB »

Haha, I lost a lobby game because my opponent ran off sides on the extra point that I made. I declined the penalty and it didn't give me the point.

Just thought I would point this out so maybe we can test this and see if it is indeed a bug that happens frequently. Something to think about for the NDL.

not sure if its a bug or not... but i lost one b/c i had the ball down 2 at my opponents 4 yard line with 40 seconds to go, 3rd down.

i came out to run another play, but i wanted to run the clock down first. he ran offsides, it stopped the clock. he then stopped me, i kicked the fg and he came down and had enough time to hit his own fg.

pretty sure the clock should have kept running

The custom play book bug is still alive and kicking. Created a custom PB based off Mizzous. Got online to play outlaw and I was missing special teams and goaline.i had forgotten to use ask coach on 4th down until he pointed it out to me.

Weird, I have used a custom playbook in two games with no issues at all.

Same here, I know you can delete every formation til you're down to one play so it's possible goal line was accidentally taken out but special teams should always be there.

I've also noticed the order of formations is different. From left to right you could have Ace, Pistol, Goal, special teams...then Strong, Weak, Shotgun and so on. Years past goal line and ST were always at the end.

I know this doesn't sound like what happened, but similar thing happened to me vs Peay, minus the offsides:

I finished a game with Peay and I let the clock run down to 0 and it said "FINAL" on the scoreboard but the game didn't end. It showed a scene of the players meeting at midfield but I could still pick my play. I punted to see if it'd finish it but then I got to pick a defense. I'm assuming Peay wasn't controlling Indiana at this point cuz they picked their play right away. They sent a guy in motion but never snapped it. I couldn't pause for call timeout. I had to XMB out.

I built 2 custom D playbooks and a custom O playbook last night. No issues. I did remember to set them up like last year. (multiples of 3 per formation) The only exception to that rule was Hail Mary, which has just 1 play. I kept 6 goalline plays in, just so it wouldn't cause issues with the form not being there. Dunno if any of this matters this year, but I figured that if they just morphed 12, then it very well could.
