New Mindset, New Approach, New Battle Plan

thought i saw in the coaches screen where you could change their coaches strategy, run/pass %, etc. if we can change those we can somewhat contain the fcs upsets i hope

I tested it, HUM vs CPU as you know, default heisman, very slow and yes the zone aggr does change - albeit not till the fourth quarter (based on two games, so small sample size) and the DB glitch is not there too bad actually.

So with it at 10, it seems to work. i'll try it at 35 as recommended on here as well. The main thing about the DB Glitch is the animation does occur - but on default heisman, only for the FS - from what I have seen.

Now, I'm testing something else - and the goal is to remove the animation all together. Think i'm on to something, but too early to tell.

Keep it up man. I may have to tell my lady to hold off on my potential Christmas XBox if this is not officially fixed. How is it on Varsity and All American? Can you confirm that the glitch does not happen on those levels after editing the Pass Def Strategy?

I have yet to test. But will do so right now.

From what I can tell, by just simming to the 4th quarter, the zone aggr does change but with Def Strategy @ 10 - the animation starts, but recovers - and the animation is only for the FS position; have not seen it on CBs yet.

That was Heisman default, now AA default.

edit: curse of the post, just saw it bad on a four vert...sigh. back to the drawing board.

Going to try this on 47.

back to quoting myself: 47 didn't work.

Time to give in and edit the awareness ratings. I didn't want to tbh, but if that is what fixes the db glitch once and for all - then I'm happy.

Fist is right though, the zone coverage changes to Aggressive constantly. This is the culprit - and it always seems to happen first to the team that is winning oddly enough.

Going to take a look at some other values, but will make AWR a priority.
