Does anyone know what this means?

It *seems* like blitzing works better now. I've gotten 8-12 sacks from SLBs with high PRTech, PRStr both in SP and MP, and I wasn't getting that before. But I have no real idea what was tweaked here. Does anyone have insight into this?

Sounds like a simple tweak to how the game decides to interpret who and when to send an individual blitzer...

Have you seen a better interpretation of that in the testing? (i.e. closer to the actual % in the boxes?)

I haven't "tested" it at all. I'm just saying that I think I see different behavior, and the way that particular fix item is worded makes me think that someone reported some "bad" behavior in 6.2 that got tweaked/fixed in 6.3. I'm mainly just curious about what was wrong and what's different now.

I don't know if this is new or anything but I notice that even if I give 100% blitzing to SLB, splitting it 50/50 inside/outside. After I okay it and go back in it drops both to 40/40. Where is that other 20%?
I play a 3-4.

I have near identical slb and wlb on my defense in the pfl. Before the patch my wlb would get double digit sacks and my slb would get 4-6 sacks a year. Now they both get near or reach double digit sack totals. I think Mainly what happened is that you now see more production out of every linebacker position other than wlb when blitzing. Where I used to be lucky to get 1-2 sacks from an ILB, I can now get up to 5 sacks from those inside spots (if you have the blitzing bars of course), or at least more hurries it seems.

Funny. I used to get about as many sacks out of my SLBs before the patch (though not nearly as many hurries). Maybe because they were darn good blitzers.

Now, not so much, in part because those players have declined.
