Any way to stop the Onside Kick Cheat?

[dukebeatsuncagain]

This is the worst of all. I don't mind kids nano blitzing that much because I can still find ways around it but this damn onside kick thing is BS. Why isn't there more kick return options than the 3? If there was a squib recover this wouldn't be such a big deal.

Has anyone found anything that cuts down on them recovering the kickoff?

Either do it back to them or manually control the area in which he kicks it, either front guy or middle and try to get it yourself. No other way to stop it man

Squib is different from onsides. What are you talking about? Squib or Onisdes?

i think hes talking about a shorter squib, a guy just did this to me and got 2 of them. It is really annoying, why cant anyone just play normal and not like a tool?

Oh, so this became another blast session. GREAT!!! You were really helpful.

I thought there was a kick return formation that had only one guy deep? try using that one.

You could also try subbing in some your fastest players on the kick return team up front, and at the second level. In my expereinces returning the ball, all you need is guy to chip a defender to break loose. No one is going to hold their block on kick-offs.

*agrees*

Also, I wonder why coaches in real life that employ unorthodox methods
aren't viewed as cheaters?

Because it's real life and not an exploitable video game?

In real life you can adjust to things. Example: coach comes up with new way to kick off. Ball bounces between two of your players up front who can't reach it before kick off team. In responce the other team's coach now moves his players together so they can better cover that spot. Solved.

Take the same thing in a video game. You can kick to a spot the other team can't cover. Well I can't change where my guys stand on a kick off so he insta wins and I can't do anything about it.

Developing a new tactic is impressive. Learning the AI tendencies of a game then exploiting built in limitations is cheap. Simple as that.
