I use sliders like VTCRB's posted above, which knock down accuracy and blocking and ups pass coverage, but it still produces shoot outs all the time. I have tried boosting speed parity into the 70s to cut down on all the big plays, but come the fourth quarter everyone becomes incapable of covering a fly route down the side line. I like me a miracle comeback or scoring explosion as much as the next guy, but every team shouldn't be averaging north of 25 points a game across the league.

Average Points per game is now 55 combined points. I have had some 17-13, 19-12, 21-6 games, but also had a 42-38, 55-7, etc.

Alot just depends on the matchup.

All settings are the same so not sure why! Various teams i have been with and various QB`s and still i throw many more than CPU team.

question for you: are you watching games in dynasty or Play Now games? Is there a way to watch games (ie: not have to pick plays) in dynasty? I know it can be done in Play Now mode but in dynasty it seems to be no way to simply "watch' a game. Thanks...

Works the same way

You just have to take control of a team that you want to watch the game.

I usually watch about 5 games a week so I pick the 5 different coaches of the games for that week.

I use parity at 0 and still see low scoring games.

I suppose it's less the total points that bug me than the four combined touchdowns in the last three minutes stuff that happens so often. Just bomb after bomb. It doesn't seem to work consistently for or against my team, so I don't mean it's cheating or anything, it just feels like there is a hidden 'make it a big finish' slider that I'd like to tone way the hell down.



It probably just stands out more as the rest of the experience (barring the broken conference schedule) is pretty rock solid.

I have tried a few Slider sets and game plays well on all these, just cant get my QB to through 2 picks a game sometimes more. I get 1 takeaway every other game so in close games i am losing on takeaways usually. My current team USC rated 90 ovr and i struggle to beat teams over a an 83 as my QB will throw silly Ints every game and they wont. USC my 3rd team and all my QB`s have the same issue on all teams so it isnt just 1 bad QB. Still love the game tho

Has anyone figured out how to get your option quarterback to pitch the ball? I am in varsity difficulty, running slow sim, and my Army QB has yet to attempt a pitch. He either keeps or gives to the FB.

Thanks.

Sorry if this was answered. You can't pause during the slow sim but you can back out of the slow sim by pressing B/circle and pause the game. Then you can resume the slow sim whenever you please.
