So that will be my only adjustment to this setup. Sent from my SM-G900P using Operation Sports mobile app

Yeah....but if like every other year the CPU will not audible with low acc clock settings...that completely kills it for me right there. So, if I were going to use a low acc clock, I would house rule that I couldn't call audibles either....and I'd rather not do that.

I keep the same cadence as the CPU in terms of calling plays and snapping the ball when using no acc clock; which evens it out greatly. If you can't help yourself but milk every second to make adjustments, you may have to go worst-case and go with acc clock.

Go read my OP for my M17 sliders....I spell it out there. IF I do adapt this for M18, I will add it at that time to the OP for this thread.

If that winds up being the low-end, I can live with that. If it isn't the low end, I will probably look to bump it back up to 50 (I believe I read it is at 40 by default now in CFM).

I can understand that but I haven't encoutered that issue so far. Just off the top of my head, I brought a linebacker up to the line of scrimmage and saw the cpu audible. Let me know if you run into this issue once you get your hands on the game.

You're welcome to go for it, but to be honest, it's unlikely I will explore it for quite some time...way bigger fish to fry.

Oh...and line adjustments versus outright audibles....2 different things....if EA actually did fix it, great for those who enjoy that visual setting....color me skeptical.

Agreed but it is something I will look into. Much rather focus on gameplay.

Also bear in mind that we've seen quarter length impacts on things like fatigue rates in the past (obviously injuries are one we have developer confirmation on for this year). I know from watching Mill's streams that the fatigue rates were not overly impressive with 15 min quarters (it will be interesting to see if shorter quarters improve upon that).

Lots to ponder; less than 24 hours away now!

Look forward to testing right along with you compadre.

I can’t wait to dive into a test CFM tomorrow!!!!
