i prefer this system over the old one, but that might be because i had it mastered right away with my steady thumb.

Yeah i aint mad its pretty good i really dont care between the 2 but all the kickers are pussys, but i guess the game in all is more realistic.

i like the system. i just hate how weak the kicks are. i've been averaging like 30 yards per punt, and my kickoffs don't even get in the endzone with 20 mph winds.

What do you guys think of the new and completely different kicking meter? I admit it screwed with my mind the first time I tried it...and now that I've done it quite a few times, I still think I prefer the old way.

This kicking system is way too easy. Anyone who has been playing video games for a decent length of time should have perfect finger coordination, so I don't see people missing field goals at all.

Personally I'd like the old system back. It at least had that random as up/down swing that through some people off. I know people who still are 100% with that system during ideal conditions.

That probably has something to do with your kickers power and/or accuracy. It wouldn't make since for a five year old to kick a 50 year punt, no matter how good you are at the kick system.

I hate it, I used to always get the kickoffs into the endzone, now its lucky to even get close to it.

Although I do have to say at least they fixed the damn field goal place holder now. Look at all previous games, the kicker is already kicking the ball barely after the ball is set and before the holder hand is moved away, now it looks like a real field goal attempt with the ball in place and the holder's hand far away from it.

i think if you have a controlled motion on the foreswing, you can kick a bit further. kinda like in tiger woods golf. just a theory though.


i enjoy the new kick system. however its hard to kick off left or right. do you pull back on an angle? or push forward on an angle? or both?

waa waaa waa get over it that's the point it was supposed to make it harder and more realistic

I like this new kicking system. On the old ones, you had to push X and sometimes I messed up and I missed like a PAT lol...I've pretty much mastered it, although I see no difficulty in it at all...
