Fatigue

i thought it was only the linemen who got penalized with fatigue, but why are my cb tired when they arent even rushing.

• Tuning to fatigue logic so defenders who are not dedicated pass rushers will suffer a more severe fatigue penalty when engaging with a pass blocker that is significantly bigger than them. 

  • DEV NOTE: With the prevalence of Defensive Back blitzes being used as staple defenses, we noticed that there were many cases where the DB would get picked up by a Tight End or an Offensive Lineman that was significantly bigger and stronger than the defensive back but the blitzing DB would be able to engage in this mismatch over and over again without fatiguing. Now if a defender who is not a dedicated pass rusher having a Power Move and Finesse Move rating below 70 engages in a blocking mismatch where they are outweighed by 90 lbs or more, they will suffer a significant fatigue hit.

     

Based on this, it's supposed to only after defensive backs... but it actually affects everyone. Anyone who is outweighed by 90 pounds is being affected. (i.e. Lawrence Taylor only weighs 237 pounds - so an offensive lineman that weighs more than 327 will affect him, same for DBs. Any DB that is outweighed by 90 pounds will be affected)

Damn thanks for the info. Hopefully they fix this soon because it makes the game unplayable.

It only makes it unplayable if you cant adjust.

put dts at ends and peppers, bo or Tillman at slot cbs.

Supposedly, it's their top priority but we'll see if that means anything

Only problem with that is most DT‘s are too slow. It makes it way easier to get outside with rbs and qbs. Plus, I think you had to have DB chems to be used in the slot.

I just use subs in game. And no baremore & Buckner did just fine for me. Baremore just got replaced with recycled Allen tho.
