Seeing no difference with offensive fatigue Impact: -fatigued defensive player leaves and returns but most eventually permanently leave for remainder of game -Human run game becomes ridiculously easy as your competing against severely fatigued CPU defensive players or back ups. -Pass game becomes easier as well but much more noticeable with the run game -Issue impacts human defense as well but it’s much more noticeable in terms of gameplay when playing offense vs the CPU Possible solutions I’m going to test to mitigate: -Leave game on SIM and significantly lower fatigue -Switch franchise from SIM to Comp. Automatic lower fatigue rates on comp Would love to hear if others are experiencing similar gameplay impacts. I really hope I’m wrong but it was very obvious after one game. I feel like I’ve been gut punched as I was having a great experience with franchise. Really immersed and enjoying the game. The impact of this patch has so far significantly and immediately altered my experience for the worse. One game test so trying not to overreact, but it was very noticeable to me. Someone please tell me you’re experiencing something different. Something with much less impact pre vs post patch. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

My 2nd post patch game
I didn’t lose my DEs, but did see red fatigue a few times and went to “sub dl” package to protect the starters.
I noticed sub LBs appearing frequently.
I didn’t see any sub DBs but saw lots more fatigue.

I didn’t pay attention to the AI D, but will next time.

Testing Settings: -AP all default sliders -10min quarters no accelerated clock -Sim gameplay -HFA and progressive fatigue on but only in week one of season 1 -autosubs default -4-3 defense so impact on my linebackers may be greater then 3-4 prototype LB’s What I noticed: -Any linebacker, cornerback, or safety that is blocked by an offensive linemen suffers extreme immediate loss of fatigue -Happens whether on a blitz or an offensive linemen makes a secondary level block -Defensive player breathes very heavy on very next play and leaves game after 2-3 consecutive plays -Offensive fatigue seems fine. Seeing no difference with offensive fatigue Impact: -fatigued defensive player plays fatigued and ultimately leaves the game. They do return for a bit but most eventually leave for remainder of game at some point -Human run game becomes ridiculously easy as you’re competing against severely fatigued CPU defensive players or back ups. -Pass game becomes easier as well but much more noticeable with the run game -Issue impacts human defense as well but it’s much more noticeable in terms of gameplay when playing offense vs the CPU Possible solutions I’m going to test to mitigate: -Leave game on SIM and significantly lower fatigue -Switch franchise from SIM to Comp.

Not sure how I feel about this part of the update, I will find out later when I play a game. I currently have fatigue at 75 and the way I have my auto subs set up I really love the rotation I get in the game. Seems like I will have to really adjust it now

Can we share draft classes between platforms and if not, is that something that could be coming down the road?

Did they fix the 3-4 defense personnel issue? No... no they did not.

Jags, may I ask what you have your subs set at to get the rotations you like at 75 fatigue?

May I also ask what quarter length and runoff you use?

No idea. My PS5 actually isn't hooked up right now because I had to turn my apartment inside-out for stupid reasons lol.

Anyone else here aware if cross-play supports Madden Share? My gut instinct is "no" but again I have no idea.

Pretty sure no.

Hopefully this means crossplay will be available at launch for dynasty mode for the new College Football game this year.

Unfortunately far too late for the league my friends and I usually run every year (besides this one)
