You can test at that extreme level, but the setting you're looking for is prob closer to 60 or so...

INT at 100 would do the OPPOSITE of what you want...

Lower than default makes the safeties and LB's react slower...50 and above makes them react faster...

At 100, your SS problem gets a lot WORSE, not better...

0 would be the extreme test point to see that slow the reaction to the ball...

I call the INT slider "The Universal Modifier of Ball Awareness", because that's what it actually does the most...

It makes players less aware of the ball at lower setting and TOO aware of the ball (and where it is / who's got it, etc.) at higher settings...

This make sense. I also noticed that lowering the int make my DB play a bit worst than in the past so I can say I saw the same thing.

In theory this will create less reaction to the ball carrie and faster reaction to the pass. With pass reaction at 60. If that is the case I guess I "leveling" what I'm taking away from using int at 35 so I'm good to do that. Since usually I hate to go over 50 but if that takes to "fix" this I will.

No wonder William Moore always leads my Falcon's in tackles lol.

Oh .. and my FS Ricardo Allen is always 2nd.

Re: Safties reacting to the run unrealistically.

I have played A LOT of games and usually if you are 4-3 is your S then MLb an then the other Safties.

And again this happens every game. Remember that I don't switch and I don't shift DL and LB. otherwise the result may vary but since I do this i depend on each specific rating to play the game.

Yeah, raising Pass Reaction to the 60 range will get you slower reaction to the run, but you may have to adjust other things to compensate for the faster reaction to the pass...

Like, lowering INT...

INT unfortunately does a few things and a few things "too many":

1) Pick versus Drop versus Swat

2) Pass Coverage

3) "Universal Ball Awareness"

4) Pursuit strength and speed in Run Defense / Pass Defense / Pass Rush

As always "too many things are controlled by too few sliders" ergo, the "domino effect" need for "trade-offs"...

ALL the things you remember from EVERY slider that was ever in this game are still there...

They've just been "folded" into fewer sliders...

If they'd just give us back the 3 Run Defense sliders (TAK / Run Defense / Run Reaction) and take those out aspects OUT of the Pass Defense sliders and have those ONLY affect the pass, then we'd be able to tune the game much more effectively...

But, unless or until they do, you have to "pick your poison" and address that "domino effect" and trade off for the overall balance and live with the "less than" result...

You can no longer "have it ALL" with the current setup...

I hope this helps!

Re: Safties reacting to the run unrealistically.

Yeah I will do the int 35. Since I like what I saw. And I will move pass defense to 60. That would level ground from what I'm taking on int

As wack as it may sound, I'd try 60 (PRC) / 40 (INT) or 65 / 35...

The engine is tuned to 50 / 50, so using something that also totals out to 100 would be a good place to test from...

I look forward to you results!

Ok. I will do 40-60. The closer to default the better.

Re: Safties reacting to the run unrealistically.

So INT slider is overall defensive awareness

Pass reaction is run/pass reaction priority

Pass coverage is what exactly? How well they play their zone/man?

We lowered INT from 48 to 43 in our league and I definitely have noticed coverage bein much softer and guys getting beat more often, so this makes sense
