...and he falls down???

Some players have 100 conditioning and lose energy, some HBs have 100 power tackling and don't break an eventual tackle, some players have 100 deflecting and allow a catch in traffic.

I agree that a player shouldn't just fall down for nothing, at least not so frequently, but its a game, on the current state its not a surprise to see players falling, the skill code on this game doesn't allow to fully prevent that, even players with 100 in balance will fall, i don't understand your complaint.

Unless they made something like: from 70 balance up, a player will not fall down if untouched (considering that a X minimum skill in balance represents a player being a professional football player and not falling with the wind), players will keep falling, deal with it.

The "off-balance" effect should have been rolled back over the off-season, and reapplied to situational events. Granted, the HB does get some contact on that play, but shouldn't be falling down. The original intent to make the OL/DL important was good(and worked), but the balance efffect has caused unintended consequences for the sim. I just don't get why the"slowdown/falldown" has to stay in place when the sim was smooth before it. And deep passing was changed due to it, which...didn't stop deep passing and instead made short/med passing OP, lol. #MakeBalanceGreatAgain

But I don't want to deal with it

He seemed to never fully regain balance after a pretty solid hit. I don't really have a problem with this one. The play animation made things look weird.

You would be correct sir, broke 2 solid tackles and stumbled.

I didn't see him stumble...

Fix the animation then

I dunno...spending money on this game gets harder when stuff like that becomes more frequent. Players just falling in the middle of plays, and I see this so often both offensively and defensively....I begin to just start settling with the game and thinking maybe it is time to cash out.

In your opinion, if you think it's declining, when was this game the best it's ever been?

Few seasons back. Everything worked. It was kinda nice. But you have to keep making changes. Nothing ever sticks that way. You can't stay stagnant. I don't personally think the game is declining...but I don't like how they handled balance. It has effected the game in a negative way all around. It will eventually be fixed. I am not the only one who feels that way. But I don't know that I can stand by and wait for it while still spending money season after season.

Have to say I am personally sad that no new plays were introduced in the offseason....only thing worth looking at the changelog besides a complete rewrite of SA's, New SA's, or new building structure....

71 balance and untouched.

Not mad. Just sharing. Definitely not on GE's side.

Well there's a lot of stuff going on here. First, unless it's a perfect catch you're going to lose balance. Considering he has zero points in receiving abilities, I'm going to guess that hurt it a bit. Then he broke THREE tackles. Which I'm going to guess again put him off balance even more. It's frankly amazing that he was even still on his feet after all that.

I will say though that this is pretty surprising. Even in worse case scenario, his balance recovery roll should have two to three times the value of his balance loss roll, seems you'd need to lose a lot of easy to win rolls in a row to get to that point.

Yes I agree - seriously, though I am not really mad either. I am just acknowledging the obvious. I am now out of flex, and am considering leaving the game for awhile until things are going better. This falling down thing is just silly IMHO. I thought - even with all it's flaws - this game was at least better than this. If it turns out that you need 100 balance to not fall over (but there is still a chance you might lol), well that is just gonna eventually piss me off and I would rather not subject myself to this punishment for trying to run the ball. I would not say this lightly nor would I have said it if there was SOME attempt to fix it after enough time had passed. If I had unlimited funds then figuring out the new meta might be fun every year but sadly - this is not the case. And the RB meta seems unreachable for existing players - and perhaps all players -
whatever the new "meta" may be. I think the game is just broken at the moment, at least to me.
