Then when I play games that profile needs to create a player for my opponent, assign as a player that wont play in the game(no instant starter), assign the playbook during the game start screen, and as long as the 2nd controller is on, then it will be fine. Do I have that correct essentially....?? I only have wireless controllers...does that mean that I either need to just keep the controller 'active' or it will timeout and shut off, which will just pause the game then? Last year I discovered custom sliders, this year playbooks...what rock was I living under, lol.

Yes, the 1 thing I had an issue with was if my 2nd controller turned off after time it paused game and even when I turned it back in I couldn't do anything. Hence why I say I'm pretty sure you need to have it plugged in (or active) for the whole game. This if only for cfm. Play now your fine though.

I've done this since Madden 15, mostly removing all those 4 verts plays (why it's like is the beyond me), re-rating certain plays for certain star players (Gronk, Dez, Julio, etc) and it makes a WORLD of difference when playing the computer.. I haven't done it near the extent that vannwolfhawk is getting this ish done! More so generic type playbooks that I assign teams based on how they play.. Once I pick up my copy, I'll be sure to check out your playbooks man this is gonna be awesome, especially since it seems like you have enough playbook knowledge of every team to get them to play like their counterparts. Props!

Just picked up M17 Prima Guide and the "Best Offensive and Defensive" plays have changed from M16!
I'm updating Falcons and My Skins now!
Play calling has changed from M16 prima to M17, so they are updating with new info!

1st dwn
2nd dwn
3rd dwn
Short, med, and long have all been changed.

This makes having the 17 Prima worth the $10.00 w/ GameStop discount.

I'm starting off just changing My team and the team I'm facing that week, instead of doing a bunch at once.
I wanna test this thing week to week and really put together a ligit gameplan for the week, for MY team and the CPU!
Week to week gameplanning WILL BE a Game changer! In M17!
I'm so stoked fellas!

See guys, this is HUGE!
We really do need to give the CPU Defensive Play Call logic a look as well!
This is awesome stuff here!

Dude you're on a Roll!
Just think, if we wanted to, we could adust the CPUs gameplanning week to week, and really see some variety in the CPU!

Can someone explain to me how to do this with generic play books?

Can I just assign generic play books to CPU controlled teams in my CFM to get them to call plays better?

I do have a 2nd controller. (PS4)

Fyi,
I used the 2nd controller, changed the Offense and defense before starting the game, and moved it back to the middle and the PBs still stuck for the Game vs CPU!
I don't know the difference between leaving the controller on the team your facing vs moving it back to the middle.

Just good to know they stick even if you move controller back to the middle.

I believe you could just be a owner and switch the scheme / playbook without the workaround. I have no idea what those playbooks look like.

Rams playbook up... Op updated...
