From what i understand the xp sliders are online only. I am thinking they are being pushed server side which is why we have to wait until tomorrow and why they aren't available for offline. Just an assumption

I saw the exact opposite thing. I think some of this depends on the sliders you're using . In my test games, the o-line and d-line play looks improved. I have been seeing the right end get a lot more pressure than before the patch. That has always been a big complaint of mine.

The patch is good but if they are for only online and not offline then EA really dropped the ball on that one. There is no reason that they should be for just online makes zero since.

Interesting I may have to put Pass blocking back to 50 and play a few games when I get a changes to see what happens. Before the patch though I had to have pass blocking really low or there would be no pressure. I mean really low like CPU pass blocking at like 23 or something. Even then it wasn't the right positions getting the sacks and pressure.

It's only the XP sliders that are online only.

Big disappointment then. How is ever one liking the way DB play? I already fell like on default there are to many INT even before the patch. I may have to lower pass coverage and reaction and INT after this patch at least that is how it sounds looking at the patch notes.

Call me crazy, but I am noticing subs in an offline CFM with fatigue at 50 and without touching the sub sliders. I have only played a few drives so it may just be me. Has anyone else noticed anything?

If auto subs are fixed in CFM I'd be ecstatic... They work great in "Play Now" mode, but they've been glitched in CFM for years.
