JohnDoe8865 said:7Words, you said you lowered WR Catching on CPU, does that yield more drops?

---

not at all. i played 3 games with it at 9 and i've had 3 drops total, the change i see is that the sometimes receivers are less on target with the QB's throws, usually they're behind the throws and need to reach out to have a chance at them. in the last game i played, the QB was 12-30, 237 yds, 2 TD's and 2 INT's

Ok, I'm gonna play a few games with the CPU catch rating at 10 first and see how it goes. I too feel that the CPU gets a few too many yards through the air even when I call a good defense for the situation. I'll keep posted

I wonder if you were to lower CPU pass accuracy and CPU catch to 0 and set CPU run ability and run block to 20 if they would run all the time? Might be an interesting experiment to try sometime.

Ok, I just had my greatest game ever, a 1339 at 5:30 AM EST.

I was Sacramento State Hornets at home vs. the Maine Black Bears.

I won 31-24 on literally a last second hail mary to the 10 and my reciever took it to the house for a game winning TD! They fumbled at midfield on a broken play where their QB tried to take off and go up the middle to pick up a first down with less than a minute left. I recovered after Maine's center kicked the ball and drove it downfield and scored in miraculous fashion.

I used some tweaked sliders and I may stick with them this time...no really.

Here they are ... mind you they netted me my greatest game ever so I may be a little biased.

CPU OFFENSE

QBA 12
PASS BLK 13
WR CTH 10
RB ABI 16
RUN BLK 18

HUMAN OFFENSE
QBA Default (10)
PASS BLK Default (10)
WR CTH 12
RB ABI 13
RUN BLK 13

CPU DEFENSE

AWARE 10
KNOCK 10
INT 8
BRK BLK 9
TKL 8

HUMAN DEFENSE

AWARE 9
KNOCK 10
INT 10
BRK BLK 9
TKL 8

On both CPU and Human Sp Teams Lower FGA to 7 and turn up Kickoff Length to 11 for both.

Max out all penalties except for Holding, Facemask, and Clipping.

I played on 8 minute quarters on All-American.

My rushing totals are what excited me. Maine had 30 carries for 181 yards and broke two big runs on me, one for a TD. I finally feel threatened on defense. On the other hand the QB was 9-19 with only 112 yards passing, 1 TD and 1 INT.

My QB was 12-27 for 203 yards and 3 TDs with 1 INT on an awesome blitz by the CPU where I just threw it where I had already intended and they picked it off. Nice. I grabbed 97 rush yards on 26 carries, 17 carries and 82 yards by my halfback.

I feel with these sliders you can't get great pressure on the opposing QB without blitzing or unless you have a good front 4, the way it should be. By having to blitz to get pressure with mediocre teams it puts you at risk for the big play and really makes you think before you blitz, also the way it should be.

I really feel comfortable with these sliders and I intend on using them when I start my dynasty with Blacklover's updated roster with JC's and freshmen, hopefully soon.

so bumping CPU WR Catching down another point was good?

How "Aware" the defense is to what is going on around them.

[Kentucky3D]

If I move Human Defense Awareness down from 10 to 5 what kind of effect is that going to have?

what i notice the most is that the defense isn't as close to the WR as they should be and are more likely to get burned when you go deep

My thread about this was locked so I will ask it here....Who exactly is Bill Abnber and will he come out with sliders for 2004?
