4th and 3 to go he runs for it and gains/gets 3 yards yet it gets turned over when it looks like a 1st n 10.

I was just curious as I have been seeing this more often.

no, this is absolutely not a bug.
its obvious that they don't round past 1/2 a yard in football.

it seems someone posts this thread every other day.

At that spot in the field there are only 2 options, go for it, or kick a FG, but low level kickers can't make that FG.

This is just the way GLB does rounding math. Although I think it should be done differently it's not a bug, please make a suggestion in the suggestion forums for this.

Agree with Hikariu, not a bug...more of a visual / rounding difference.

Then it should say 2.5 yard gain, this is a Text bug\!!!

it is just the rounding. If the runner goes for 2.8 it will round to three but the runner didnt actually get three. so it wouldnt be a first down.

Agreeing with Hik and j_reimy and closing as ISSUE DETERMINED NOT A BUG
