NDAlum - why do you "hate" the extension of the defensive play call timer?

Just curious, I know a good number of people were asking for that time limit to increase and you're the first person I've seen go the opposite way on that.

a couple things on there, but yeah, this isn't what i thought they were going to say.

really thought QB sacks
QB accuracy
improved penalties.

i really thought they were going to surprise us with a penalty fix.

Welp...That list looks like "majoring in the minors" to me. Alongside ND Alum, I could care less about most of those fixes, esp. given the trickle-down effect that the sacks issue has on realism. So many drives get killed by the sacks issue that I earn probably 4-5 wins at least that I shouldn't have over the course of a season just from that issue alone.

I highly doubt sacks will get addressed this year. It is what it is.

I'm real pleased to see that one. Actually, that one is what I wanted most, so I'm fairly happy

I like these three things. I really hope the QB inaccuracies are better. Getting an extra 5 seconds to call defense will be nice because you can't change your formation in the play call screen. I always felt rushed with 10 seconds. Looking forward to seeing all the QB animations.

I wish they would fix the camera toggle that has been defaulted to "on" in online CFMs

I can't answer for him but my guess is that it is entirely unrealistic. I cannot ever recall seeing a offense lined up and having to wait for the defense to break the huddle.

If the offense is running up tempo it should make things very difficult for the defense. It forces defenses to give more vanilla looks.

The biggest upshot of the time limit increase for me is ability to set some defensive formation substitutions; the 10 second time limit in tandem with the clumsy interface for making those subs made making adjustments and getting in a play call nearly impossible.

I am ready to start my franchise...

# 130 TheBleedingRed21 @ 10/07/14 01:28 PM

ND, not sure why you do not like the playclock for defense going to 15.. I run out of time trying to navigate to find my play and get a lot of auto selected plays before.

If you think it will cause our games to go longer now, I doubt it will even be noticeable.

Does he try to run a up tempo offense?

Big difference between Madden and real life here though.

In real life you don't have to wait to select your defensive formation (let alone the play) until after the offense has selected their play.

# 135 Gorilla Glass @ 10/07/14 01:35 PM

Yes, yes yes - we can now skip through presentation and cut scenes. From 2nd quarter to 3rd quarter just like that. * tiger woods fist pump.

# 136 Charizard @ 10/07/14 01:35 PM

BS

They didnt even fix the Finances in Owner Mode, What the Hell man

This is nonsense! They said they would fix it

Im trading this nonsense in for 2K15 tomorrow

# 137 TJdaSportsGuy @ 10/07/14 01:35 PM

Just looking at this thread, you can see why the business of releasing patches is so difficult. Seemingly every single person here has one issue they most wanted to see fixed. Sure, some are mentioned more than others but if the developers fixed every single little thing people asked about, we wouldn't see a patch until July.

With that said...can someone post a screen shot of the Buffalo Bills road jerseys, focusing on the numbers on the jersey? I'd like to see if they were among the multiple jersey fixes deployed in this update.

That is true.
But I thought online players select their plays at the same time?

Regardless that objection is the only reason I can think of to not be happy with the extra time.

# 139 Hunkerdown @ 10/07/14 01:39 PM

"- Added tuning adjustments to offline Connected Franchise Mode, matching Online CFM hot fixes"

What does this exactly mean? could it be fixes we are not aware of? anyone have list of hot fixes fixed in Online CFM?

Well even in online games the defense still has to wait for the offense to select their play before the formation is known.

I haven't played online so I don't know if the struggle is the same but I'm excited to finally get to see my defensive playbook rather than rushing to a playcall.
