Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

Re: Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

Any specific rules with these sliders? Like only controlling DT and not going 5 wide?

There isn't no house rules for my sliders. Use whatever feature that is provided for you with the game. As long as your not doing anything to exploit the AI use it. I don't believe in house rules. Thats why I make my sliders challenging so you don't have to handicap yourself when you play the game. There isn't any fun in that to me. If you have to handicap yourself with house rules that means you need to up the challenge on the sliders IMO. Let me know how your game goes..

At first I was using Gametails but I just downloaded AVThunder35 today and there good but I'm going to be doing my own tweaking cause he overrated a few guys and underrated a couple of others that I didn't like but overrall they were good. I think he downloaded Bucks and Gatorbaits and fixed a few issues then did his own rating tweaks..

Hey I know this is a slider forum Jarrod but are you having the same roster glitches that I keep hearing about in other forums

I haven't really looked hard into to it. I heard the tendencies are messed up or something but I don't really know..

Re: Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

Hey Jarodd, finally got some time to play so here's some stats from the game I just got done with. Some quick offensive stats:

LSU (me) 39, Oregon (CPU) 48

Passing- (don't laugh)
LSU- QB #9: 4/5, 33 yds, 1 td
QB #8: 16/40, 326 yds, 3 td, 3 int

Oreg- QB #1: 12/19, 104 yds, 1 td

Rushing-
LSU HB #11: 14 att for 29 yds
QB #8: 8 att for -61 yds (sacked like 20 times lol)

Oreg- HB #21: 21 att for 127 yds, 3 td
QB #1: 17 att for 104 yds, 1 td

Pretty crazy game. Game started off nicely, tied 10-10 midway through 2nd quarter but then I threw a nasty pick 6, making it 17-10 Oregon. Then things got a little nuts... I threw my other 2 int's of the game in this quarter which resulted in Oregon scoring 17 more points making it 34-10 at the half.

Well I could have given up there but I didn't. I ended up finding my groove in the second half and was aided by a few Oregon fumbles which I recovered. The score was 41-39 oregon going into the 4th but I ended up going 3 and out twice, and then oregon played like punks and drove about 60 yds down the field and scored at TD in the final minute (even though they were up... whatevs)

A few things of note from this game:

I really like the way the gameplay "felt". You REALLY have to be careful with passing and THINK about what you're going to do. This is great and really forces you to think on the fly. You have to get rid of the ball quickly too (as I found out by my many sacks)

I had a really hard time stopping Oregon on 3rd down and random big run plays, hence the 48 points they scored on me. Just need to mix up the play calling I suppose.

I would have liked to have run the ball more but being down by so much so early... well, I had to pass a lot. lol

Now that I know how these sliders feel and react I'll play some more games and post stats as soon as I can

Whats good Alien? I haven't seen you on in a while.. Yeah looks like you was in a barn burner for real.. Haha! Oregon ran all over me too while I was testing a game using Mississippi St.. Haha! I posted some highlights I believe on an earliar post.. You definitely should have ran the ball more to slow the game down when especially when your playing an offense like Oregons. I doubt you'll have trouble running because the running became very easy with the elimination of suction tackling. I had to make the sliders like that just so I can be slowed down sometimes..

If the sacks continue to be crazy like that just lower the CPUs pass rush until you get use to the intense rush. But you won't have to worry about that when you play some scrub team.. It seems like EA programmed the bad teams to play terrible regardless of how the sliders are which is pretty realistic because I haven't had a close game with a C-D rated team yet. It hasn't even been close. I've blown all of them out.. But these sliders are definitely good for our skill level. You know how easy the CPU can get for us. But definitely post some more feedback from your next couple of games when you get a chance..

Re: Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

Alright, so I just got done playing another crazy game. Here's the run down.

Cincinnati (CPU) 45, LSU (Me) 49

Passing-
LSU QB#9: 16/30, 281 yds, 4 td, 2 int

Cinci- QB#12: 18/27, 386 yds, 3 td, 1 int

Rushing-
LSU HB#42: 23 att. for 50 yds, 1 td
QB#11: 3 att. for -21 yds

Cinci- HB#23: 17 att. for 154 yds, 2 td
HB#10: 6 att. for 37 yds
QB#12: 10 att. for -19 yds

Team stats-
Total offense: Cinci 555, LSU 376
3rd down conv: Cinci 5-13, LSU 5-11
4th down conv: Cinci 0-2, LSU 2-3
Rushes-yards: Cinci 34-169, LSU 28-14
Turnovers: Cinci 2, LSU 2

Another crazy one. I was down 21-7 at the half but had a crazy second half and ended up scoring the game winning TD with 45 seconds left in the game.

Still having kind of a hard time running the ball. Most gaps fill up before I can get to the line. The CPU sniffs out my run plays really well. Still, had a few nice runs though.

Interceptions- my fault. Had another nasty pick 6 this game and those will KILL you... especially with these sliders. Just gotta get better at passing and reading coverages

The thing that bugged me the most though was the BIG plays by the CPU. Almost all of Cinci's TD's were from 50+ yards, including an 84 yd TD pass down the sideline on 3rd down. I had a hard time with the CPU slipping a lot of tackles too.

Other than that, I'm gonna keep playing some games and see what happens. I don't think I want to adjust any sliders yet. If anything, these sliders will help me get better in the long run. Now that I kinda have a feel for them I'll adjust and keep going.

Re: Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

Yea sounds lik if it wasn't for the INTs you would have won comfortably. Just raise the user blocking to 5 or 10. The run game should definitely open up with those tweaks if you continue to have trouble running and jus drop the CPU runblocking to 50 if the CPU continues to hit you with big play and maybe drop the CPUs catching down 5 or 10 ticks if they continue to hit you with big passing plays during your next few games.

Yeah what I have in the front is pretty much where I'm at until a patch drops.. If you need any help adjusting in certain areas just hit me up and I'll help you adjust them to suit your style of play..

Re: Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

Just played a couple games on very fast. I think that is the only speed to play this set. It makes u focus every sINGLE play.. If u take one play off you'll get burned. Also, the animations seem to really flow with the speed at very fast. I did make one tweak, I'm using sec elites heisman rushing sliders (CPU rba 90, CPU rblk 5, hum rba35, hum rblk 0) (user/CPU tkl Is 5 and rush d is 0) everything else I'm using is yours.. Stopped playing my dynasty (I was using mkharsh varsity n helped develop those actually) but just waiting for patch like u..

Sounds good. I like the challenge of having to stay 100 percent forcus every play. Its no fun if its not like that. Even with the sliders juiced up where I have them you still blast trash teams with no problem. I think EA has it programmed to where mediocre teams will play bad regardless of sliders. I see a lot of weird things going on out there when I play those kind of teams. The USER just has to take advantage of it but when you play one of the Elite teams its super rough and you'll get punished if you're not on point for a full game. Haha!

Yeah I can't play any other way but Very fast.. Games look a lot smoother this year on that speed too then it has in years past. It definitely increases the challenge because you have to be quick with your reads on offense when throwing and running. On defense you have to react quick to the run or pass. I like it like that and it makes you a better player IMO.

I just made a small tweak with the USER pass blocking. I raised it up to 10. I started playing my Dynasty finally and played a couple of garbage teams early and while I still blasted those trash teams I was getting sacked more then I should have. I check the replay after each one and my stud center or guard was getting owned by some scrub DT right of the rip so I raised it up to 10 from 0. Looks a lot better so far right there so I'll be keeping and eye on it when I play some more games.. But that will probably be the last tweak for now until the patch..

Re: Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

At the request of a lot guys who use my Madden sliders I decided to dust off the NCAA since they came out with this 3rd patch to see if the gameplay changed any. I haven't played NCAA since Madden came out because I've been locked in on it putting together my slider set for that game. Great sliders BTW with good reviews from a lot of people. I have base set for good Madden players and a tough set for very skilled and elite players. Check it out if you have Madden 12. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...m-sliders.html

But anyway I played a couple of games with my sliders to see if the gameplay changed any and noticed it did a little bit. I was in a shootout with Houston using Texas A&M and was getting shredded by Virginia using Miami along with my Dline not getting off there blocks in both games so I decided the CPUs catching needed to come down from 100 and the CPUs runblocking needed to get dropped from 55 to 50. The CPUs pass defense didn't seem to good either because I was shredding them pretty easy so I felt the INTs needed a boost since that affects the DBs playig the ball in the air. Seen a lot of plays where the CPUs defenders didn't react to the ball in the air when it should have been picked off. Raised there INTs to 75. The CPUs run defense seemed improved and tougher. I'm not changing that because I liked the challenge. Played Virginia again with the tweaks I made dropping the CPUs catching to 75 and dropped there runblocking to 50.

Miami- 33 (missed and extra point and failed on the 2pt conv.)
Virginia- 7

Miami-Passing
J.Harris 19-25 301yds 2TDs 2INTs

Virginia-Passing
M.Rocco 7-19 46 yards 1TD 1INT

Miami-Rushing
L.Miller 29 carries 159yds 5.4avg 3TDs

Virginia-Rushing
P.Jones 15car 30yards 2.0avg

Miami-Receiving
T.Benjamin 9rec 154yds 1TD
L.Byrd 4rec 41yds
Streeter 3rec 61yds 1TD
A.Johnson 3rec 45yds

Virginia-Receiving
M.Snyder 3rec 13yds 1TD
K.Burd 1rec 3yds
C.Phillips 1rec 16yds
T.Smith 1rec 7yds
B.Smith 1rec 7yds

Miami-Defense
2sacks 1INT

Virginia-Defense
4sacks 2INTs

Might need to raise the CPUs catching back up just a little bit after this game. There passing was a little bad with the catching at 75. I will probably move it to 85 and see how it plays right there. There run game was kind of suspect too but Viginia shouldn't run on anybody so I'll wait and see if I shut down some good backs before I decide on leaving it at 50 or moving it back to 55. Everything else seemed pretty good and it felt right.. Post some stats and feedback if anybody trys them out and let me know the issues you are having and I'll help you adjust them. I'm going to play a few more games to see if anything else might need some tweaking..

Re: Jarodd21's Heisman Sliders

Great to see you back at these sliders. Haven't been able to pick up Madden 12 yet (though it should be on the way to me as I'm writing this, finally) but you know I love your sliders, after messing around a bit with some other sliders for my most recent dynasty, I guess I'll give these a shot again.
