Is anyone else having issues with Madden where on every kickoff it goes out of the end-zone? It's REALLY REALLY annoying. I love kickoffs, but at full power it goes straight out of bounds. (I know some of you are thinking "Then don't go full power") Well, it isn't that simple. To get a good kick (one that goes in the end-zone) is pretty difficult. You have to just barely get it under full power, and most people aren't even willing to do it.

well i dunno who ur playing as, but its safe to say if ur kicker has an 87 or above, its goin to the middle of the endzone. it is annoying, i agree on that. u could also try adding more air underneath ur kicks

I know and i have a question that has nothing to do with this but something to do with Madden. How did you , if you did, get that 20 yard avarage acheivment and is there a certain carring limit to it too like do you have to carry it at least 5 times and avarage 20 yards to get it?

sorry about the question just been trying to get it for 2 days now lol

Yes I seem to have the same problem, everytime i kick it off it goes to the back of the endzone or past it, it gets pretty annoying.

Yeah, it's pretty lame. TheCPU has yet to return a kickoff from me(touchback galore) and i've played about 20-25 games. I guess i'll start putting more air under the ball.

what that guy said was right aim upwards and to a corner, you won't kick it as far and with more hangtime, in theory your guys will be able to get down there faster and have a better chance of stopping your opponent for a short return

oh yea the kicking is way too easy, i dont think i'll ever miss a fg in this game on all-pro, havent tried all-madden but it cant be that much harder

I also have this problem. I would say that 8 times out of 10 it will go into the endzone. When I try to compensate the kick will be way too short.

well i can't even kick it into the endzone ... how do you kick it into the endzone the closest i've got is into the 5 yard line. occasionally i will kick it into the endzone like 1 out of 100 tries but how do you do it everytime
