This game is almost unplayable.....(passing)

[persay]

the damn thing is ruining the game. on AA, long ball is way to easy for both sides. on Heisman, my WR actually has the CB beat (unlike in AA when they would catch in double converage) and the CPU has my CB beat (unlike AA) and they cant even catch it. They still fail to go back to NCAA 2004, where the gameplay was wide open, like real college football. The damn Lb's block or intercept (mostly INT) ever pass thats going to the middle. ****s impossible. I dont suck, i dont hate EA. its an actual problem with the game. I guess i gotta wait till Madden for the 2nd straight year.

Try some of the sliders in the slider forum before giving up :watogo:

i was using Jistics AA sliders (long ball too easy) and then some guys (the ppl in the thread called him AA) Heisman sliders (long ball too hard). No matter what the short passing game is non-existant. Its really pissing me off, since Maurice Drew went to the NFL so im stuck without an impact RB to at least get me 3 TD's and 200 yards to give me a chance at winning.

You are right.

You should just stop playing and sell the game back to EB.

Keep tweaking the sliders until you find a set that works best for how YOU play the game. The slider sets posted on the forum work best for the author that CREATED them. Most will tell you straight up that the sliders are just a guideline and that there might be some aspects you'll want to change to make the game play better for you.

For example, I'm using AA's Heisman sliders. After 5 games of my FSU Dynasty, I dropped down CPU INT from 80 to 70 and lowered Human RB Ability from 50 to 40. I also upped CPU Pass Block from 15 to 30. The reason? I felt the CPU defense was too aggressive on pass plays and would come up with 3-5 INT's a game and the deep ball was close to impossible to complete. Now I can hit 1-3 a game, which is realistic, especially for FSU. RB Ability was lowered because my RB was averaging well over 8 yards per carry. CPU Block was increased because I was getting too many sacks. Now I get somewhere from 2-5 a game and that feels right. The second half of my Dynasty played better FOR ME and these will be the sliders I stick with for a while, unless I see something that I think I should change.

So I'd say keep playing around with the sliders until you get them to where you are comfortable. This is a great game IMO.

2004 had the same problem with the long ball, in fact offense as a whole was way to easy in that game. Its a big problem, but 2004 definitely wasnt like real college football.

But still, if you like 2004 better, just play that.

I had the same problem with the intermediate passing game. Try turning awareness all the way down to zero.
