Re: canes21 College Football 25 Sliders

Hmm I don't know about these 1.2 sliders. I have been using 1.1 for this whole season with new mexico lobos. I had good games and beat who I should of beat. I only upset one team.

I put these new ones on and now I'm getting absolute torched by hawaii who is a similiar overall team to me. I can not stop them at all...

These sliders might work well for a top team but not for a bum squad. The A.I. absolutely sees everything now. There's nothing I can do.

Also noticed the Pass interference is too high. I just got called for PI twice on one drive for properly being on time to break up the pass. I think 95 was better.

Also I don't know if it's the sliders but numerous times the game is ignoring my inputs to control my DB's by hitting the swat or catch button. Anyone else having this issue?

Yeah I’m already sweating this new set lol AI could pass on me pretty good with the reduced accuracy/increased reaction time in 1.1.

I’ll give them a shot in my next game against UTEP

Kramer, I think press is bugged. It has missing animations it feels like and WRs get super wins far too often regardless of match up. I can't imagine EA tuned it this way unless this is their way of making the press abilities really matter which I'd get, but they overdid it.

I don't press as often as it's like because it's literally a 50% chance or more of a TD if the CPU QB puts any loft on the throw.

Regarding what you guys are saying about v1.2's coverage, make sure you're mixing up coverage and disguising your coverage. If you're still struggling, don't be afraid to mix and match parts of v1.1 and v1.2. Or, you can always stick with v1.1. I always leave the older sets up for instances like this where some may prefer them to the newest set.

Don't feel forced to have to use the newest version if an older version felt really good for you. End of the day, we're just trying to have fun.

Pretty much exactly how it was in 14, pressing was/is a great way to just get bombed on. I don't recommend it.

Yeah, I always tend to mix and match stuff slider wise. I've got the 1.1 accuracy settings mixed in with 1.2, I liked the variance of the lower accuracy

Yeah, something is definitely off when using press, as far as mixing up coverage, I am constantly mixing things up...one area I'm definitely going to keep an eye on is the lack of CPU Wr drops, it seemed like Western Michigan rolled out Jerry Rice and throw in the Dolphins Marks brothers, and these dudes weren't dropping anything...lol

I'm currently testing 2 different slider sets, I really like some aspects of 2.1, so I will make some adjustments based on that set, but I always keep my "fll back" set ready

Great job on the Heisman set Canes, if I'm not mistaken, aren't you the only one doing a Heisman set so far?

Drops are something I'm still paying attention to. We keep going lower and lower with the catch slider and the drops don't really increase. I'm wondering if that slider even works at all. It's clearly not as strong as some other sliders like Ball Security and Interceptions. If they all were that sensitive, making sliders would be a lot easier, imo.

I think I may be the only Heisman set around, but I haven't looked at every other thread here. I've been too engrossed in these test dynasties over the weekend and haven't really read too much, just been enjoying the gameplay of this game. I've been loving 1.2 in both my Miami and UMass dynasties.

Re: canes21 College Football 25 Sliders

I'm not sure how I feel about user tackling at 37. It seems like no matter what I or the AI defenders do, most tackles are being broken now, even from guys who don't have super high break tackle.

College is definitely sloppy in the tackling department, but on a lot of plays it feels like whoever has the ball for the CPU is covered in grease. The CPU tackling seems better, not too good not too bad, so I think I'm going to bump user tackling up to 40 and play a few games, see if it gets any better for my end.

I don't need every tackle to be made, I like seeing the CPU be able to pull a rabbit out of its ***, but at 37 for me the affect feels too overdone, and it's not just square or hit stick type tackles that get nearly instantly broken, even conservative wrap tackles on back to back to back attempts seem like wet paper.

Matt has one going now that he just started. There's a plethora of OG's to pick from on this game, and everybody should be able to find what they like. Matt seems to have started late and is trying to let the default game speak for itself for now. I don't think that focus is sustainable due to some glaring inequalities, but we will see. I'm really liking 1.1 so far but may mix some things into 1.2 in and see if I can create a good hybrid. It's hard to find a balance for 134 teams though. I don't want to neuter Georgia just because I wanted to neuter the FCS teams...

Re: canes21 College Football 25 Sliders

Is anyone else having trouble stopping the run? I have an 82 overall defense and have given up 230 (West Virginia), 298 (Iowa State), and 366 (Cincinnati) in rushing yards. I even have the run blocking turned down to 85 because I was averaging 250+ rushing ypg with it at 100.

Curious what everyone else is doing who isn't seeing these types of rushing numbers from non dominant rushing teams

I just wasn't seeing problems with the rushing from the CPU, so I moved run blocking back to 50 and ball control to 43. I've had some great results with these. Unfortunately I haven't been able to lab more because I'm on vacation in Gulf Shores.

I am using Kennesaw but I'm averaging ~175 against me halfway through the season. Besides Chalk IV on SJSU running up 287, I've been surprisingly solid so far. I never switch off of my user and I feel that helps a ton.

I also don't switch in either dynasty. My Miami team was stuffing everyone just about. My UMass team is rough, but I still contain the run half the time.

yeah I honestly just load the box if I see a 2RB and 1-2WR set lol. I would like the CPU QB to toss more incompletions but I'll live with everyone throwing the 65-70% for now. I am Kennesaw after all. Hopefully EA's first patch isn't a complete dud.

I notice tons of drops from my players and CPU. I think the better teams might just be better so it doesn't happen as often but here in ****ville it's happening a lot lol....

That's college football man. Look at the completion percentage stats from last year.

The top 100 last season bottomed out at 57.6% completion rate. With Bo Nix leading the way at 77.4%. The mid line in that top 100 is in the 63-64% mark.

College defense is a lot looser than pro. Is there a smaller amount of off target throws than I'd expect with lower rated QBs? Yes. But it's made up for the defense being tighter and causing more incompletions.
