So last night I decided to try out my second online game. I guess I'm getting brave in my old age.
Anyhow, I play the game against some guy using Earl Campbell. I held him to under a 100 yards which goes to prove that Campbell is no unstoppable.
I finish up the game 28 -14 (gave up a TD in garbage time). Both of us played a straight up, good solid game. Nothing cheap on either side.
The game is finished and headed back out to the lobby and then ...... unregistering game, this game won't count. WTF?! Let's me go through the ENTIRE game and then craps out ... weak. :(
Is this a common issue so far?? I haven't played enough games online to find out. Neither one of us could give any feedback either. It sucked.

This happens alot dude. The record keeping glitches makes me not even want to play online. I have had the following happen to me. \
1. The game freezing croud. Usually top 20 are using it. Why it is effective is because they avoid a loss and it prevents you from giving feedback. You'll notice they always have 90% or higher good rating when you know there cheesing.
2. The mysterious lost connection with opponent at the crucial point in the game. I have had drops stuck to me and it was my opponent who pulled. BS
3. Actually winning the game and not have it counted in your record. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BEING IN THE BEGGINERS ROOM. THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM IN THE ALLPRO ROOM.

Yeah ... I was in All Pro and the game was a great game. Then the damn thing hiccuped while exiting the game. It didn't lock up or freeze, just didn't record anything. I doubt it was the other user because he played legit all the way to the end.
It's not so much my record that I care about, but the feedback. I think we both would have given the other solid feedback for a well played game, but didn't get the chance.

The freeze (the devs have affectionately named it the runandshoot glitch...no joke) is fixed in the codebase, and a little bird tells me it will be fixed in the first patch.
Pullers get their just rewards. Mod them into oblivion.
The wins not being counted, I suspect that people are creating unranked challenges and no one pays attention. I can't verify this though - hasn't happened to me.

It has happened to me. I was mad, played a guy with a whole created team...still won. He cheesed too, so I cheesed right back and beat him at his own game. Then I play "sim" with others. :)

I played a game like that. The dude glitched it because I was beating him 28-14 and it said unregistering game with 20 seconds left in the 4th. His gamertag is DefJux420.

...or they're dropping you because you're fielding a bunch of created players. :)

If he did it on purpose, that sucks. He played the whole game and the game was over. It got screwed up when it tried to exit back out to the lobby. Can people still glitch it at that point?
Anyhow, neither of us had any created players, do I don't know if that was the problem.

why does that matter, my favorite team that i created has a created qb, and he's not nearly as good as marino, plus much shorter. - where is the issue?
