i am finally done it after a week of testing my theory out. it is a rigorous process so you have to be up for it and OMG it is extremely worth it. i somehow have balanced every aspect of any NFL game perfectly. this is not sliders settings. This is how i did it. I found out in all ESPN games, the player ratings are flawed. For example, if you go through the ratings in ESPN football, you will find out that the running backs are stronger than the Linebackers. that is the one of the reasons for the miss tackles.
RUNNING BACKS
CHANGE EVERY RUNNING BACK TO THE FOLLOWING SETTINGS
STRENGTH
Power and Balanced Running backs - 60-70
Finesse- Dont change
AGGRESSIVENESS
Power running backs- change every power runningbacks rating to 90. this is really helpful because the runningbacks will do more shoulder charges and fight for yards
BREAKTACKLE
This is very important because it really changes the game. Reduce all runningbacks in the game by 15. Now it harder to get that 50+ yard gain.
SPEED
Lower every runningbacks with their speed over 90 by 3
CONSISTENCY
make the consistency rating of every runninback with a OVR rating over 80 the same as the OVR.
WIDE RECIEVERS
STAMINA
Increase the stamina every player with a rating over 80 to match their rating
KICKERS
Lower the Accuracy of every kicker by 40. This will make the feild goals harder.
RUNCOVERAGE RATING
THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT AND EFFECTIVE CHANGE
match ever defensive player's run coverage rating with their speed so if the player's speed is 90 their run coverage is 90.
DB(including Safeties)
lower their tackle rating by 10
LINEBACKERS
Make every linebackers strength stronger than 60 if they are not already.
Defensive Linemen
Make every DL stronger than 70
Results
After playing with this changes, i found out their are more big hits and there are gang tackles almost on every play. this is because i changed the Run coverage rating. The run Coverage rating determines speed so now players are running at real speed all the time. you will not see a defensive lineman chase down micheal Vick anymore. the DB are now faster to the ball like real life but just like real life they will miss tackles. Another thing i found out that just absolutely amazes me is i see more animations now. i think it because of the plethora of gang tackles. the running game has improved greatly on both sides because of the change in break tackles rating and aggressiveness. With my ratings, big plays dont happen often like before. The biggest thing i noticed is the DB play more aggressive with the WR on Mancoverage. you really have to time your passes now and slant routes are not automatic no more. i think its is the Run coverage rating controlling this but it is amazing how good they play defense now. you actually have to worry about which CB which you are throwing at. i will never throw to champ bailey side agaain he picked me off twice on a slant route. he actually dove on one of the picks. i was so pissed and excited at the same time. Overall i think i have perfected the speed of the game. You could know tell the fast from the slow and it is beautiful.
im 3-4 in my franchise with the bengals and im have so much fun that i cant even explain it. if you take time and try this you will not be dissapointed.
