Okay, so I gotta tell you guys about this thing that’s been driving me nuts in Madden. It’s about the kick meter, you know, the thing that’s supposed to help you make those crucial field goals and extra points? Well, it’s been blocked, and let me tell you, it’s a real pain.
So, I loaded up the game, excited to play a few matches. Everything’s going smooth, I’m scoring touchdowns, making some great defensive plays, and then it happens. I lined up for an extra point, and boom, the kick meter’s covered up. I can’t see the power bar, can’t see the accuracy zone, nothing. It’s like the game’s playing a cruel joke on me.
At first, I thought I was doing something wrong. Maybe I pressed the wrong button or changed some setting by accident. I paused the game, checked the controls, and fiddled with the options, but nothing worked. The meter was still blocked. I tried different camera angles, zoomed in and out, but nope, still couldn’t see a thing.
Then I remembered hearing something about a glitch in the latest update, something about the kick type selection covering the meter. So, I hopped online, did a quick search, and sure enough, I wasn’t the only one. Turns out, it’s a known issue that a bunch of people are experiencing.
- First Discovery: The kick meter was blocked by the kick type selection.
- Second Discovery: A bunch of people are experiencing the same issue.
Now, some folks online were saying you could try changing your timing or slowing down your kick, but that didn’t really solve the problem. It’s not about timing; it’s about not being able to see the meter at all. Others mentioned that the meter fades out, but for me, it never appeared in the first place.
I tried a few different things, like restarting the game, even reinstalling it, but the issue persisted. It was incredibly frustrating, especially when I missed a crucial field goal that could have won me the game. I mean, I’m not a pro or anything, but I like to think I’m a decent Madden player. But this bug, it really throws me off my game.
My Final Hope
I’m hoping the developers will release a fix soon because it’s really ruining the experience for me and a lot of other players. Until then, I guess I’ll just have to cross my fingers and hope for the best every time I line up for a kick. It’s a real bummer, to be honest.
