Madden 2016 team specific playbooks / everything playbooks

Re: Madden 2016 team specific playbooks / everything playbooks

Forgive me if this has been asked but has anyone had an issue where the playbook won't load? I've been using the Giants playbook that Swagger created & when I get into a CFM game it's the default Giants playbook. I have the downloaded playbook assigned in the settings so I'm not sure what could be happening.

I know for my CFM, the playbook won't load unless I go into "Advanced Options" at the team select. The playbook I want always comes up as default, but unless I actually go into the options first it won't load

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sucks having one controller. Can't test out these playbooks. Even tried going to Coach Scheme for cpu. It'll let me chose ANY playbook except for custom ones

You could get one used on Amazon for 30 bucks.

But if you have to choose between getting another game and another controller, I feel ya. Hard decision.

BadGuy,

Got a chance to take a look at your Lions, Bears, and Vikings playbooks.

Excellent work, my man! The amount of variety is astounding. It's obvious you put a TON of work into these!!

One question I have for you or anyone else making these playbooks: are you seeing a balanced run/pass ratio from the CPU opponents?

I've heavily favored running plays in some of these playbooks on 1st down (especially for a team like the Cowboys who run on first down at least 80% of the time)...but am not seeing nearly enough 1st down runs from the CPU.

I checked their team scheme to make sure it wasn't out of whack...and it was balanced offense. So not sure why I'm seeing so many passes. Any ideas??

I've been play now testing up until now. I set up a 32 team coach cfm so I can do the 3rd string QB switch out. I always did 32 owners before, but you can't switch out owners and then take them back over. I'll play a game or 2 tonight and tell you what I see. One thing I know is each coach has their own run/pass slider that we can't touch. I'll try a game against the Vikes or Cardinals because those are the heaviest running playbooks I've done.

In related news, I've got the Cards just about done. I gotta say, EA does a really good job building these for the players. They just don't gameplan anything. But everything I read and saw about Bruce Arians offense - he loves to stack formations and use hi-lo-lo route combinations so that the QB has a 2nd underneath option in case he misreads the defense presnap - stuff like that was all over the playbook, it just wasn't rated.

Anyways, Cards up in an hour or 2. I'll post when it is.

Re: Madden 2016 team specific playbooks / everything playbooks

Please excuse me if it's wrong to ask this here but since you guys are obviously very familiar with custom PB's I thought you could answer a question for me. Is there a way to order defensive formations? I am trying to create my own version of Seattle's 4-3 but I get annoyed with always having "Quarter" and "Dollar" near the top of the list. Any way around this or do you guys just put up with it?


Again, I don't mean to hijack the thread. Didn't know if this was an open thread to everything "Custom PB" or not. Thanks for the help!

As far as run/pass balance - I just played and definitely did not have that problem... In fact I had the opposite. I played against the eagles and gave them your eagles PB. They ran 42 times! 30 with Murray, 10 Matthews, and 2 read keepers with Bradford. It was my fault though, I just couldn't get them off the field. By the time I started really run blitzing every play they were pretty far ahead. Then anytime they passed it was wide open for Bradford. They stuck to the run pretty consistently except in the red zone they mixed it up and tricked me with first down passes. Murray went 30 for about 110, Matthews 10 for 56. Bradford was 12 of 19 for just under 200 yards and 2 touchdowns. They beat me 27-14.

I wonder if sliders are affecting playcalls? They've been known to do that. I played all-madden with pass blocking around 40 for them, pass blocking raised to 80 for me, both coverages and pass reactions raised way up, and interceptions at 35. Everything else around default. It's kind of a slightly easier all madden. I couldn't get the CPU to be competitive on all-pro anymore, even though that's what I like to play because all-madden gets kind of ridiculous sometimes. I did 14 minute quarters ran down to 16 seconds, but I doubt that matters. It's probably sliders. Do you play on all pro with any of their passing sliders raised?

Anyone able to upload custom play books on XB1? Anyone still working on them?

I have seen that before but I don't know how to fix it. Maybe someone else in here does?

I'm a lot more familiar with offensive books and there's an issue there where if you delete certain sets out of shotgun it'll start putting shotgun sets under hail mary, wonder if this might be similar? If so the fix for that is to add shotgun forms BEFORE you delete any.

Sorry I can't help be more help. I can't speak for anyone else but I definitely don't mind people asking playbook questions in here. I'll try to help when I can.

Re: Madden 2016 team specific playbooks / everything playbooks

I did the backup undrafted qb workaround but the problem is during field goal and extra points the player comes in and I have to kick the field goal for the CPU. Is there no way to make it so I never have to control the CPU?

Also, do I have to be a coach to use a custom pb for my team or will it still work with me as an owner? I still play the game and am allowed to switch pbs so I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Better workaround is to select an active player. Choose the 3rd or sometimes 4th string QB. Created QBs are always at least 71 OVL which can bump them up the depth chart.

OK. Thats easy enough. But don't most CPU teams in CFM only carry 2?

I've seen most have at least 3 actually.

(I dont know why some are carrying 4 healthy QB's on the roster).

Worst case scenario you can always sign a player for the CPU to fill the 3rd string and cut another low rated guy.

Seems like after the first year quite a few carry only 2. More than half. I don't mind just doing the backup because I sim special teams, so it doesn't really matter unless the starter gets hurt.

Re: Madden 2016 team specific playbooks / everything playbooks

First - thank you gentlemen for all your hard work!

Dumb question...how do we as the user take full advantage of your gameplan? Do your rated plays show up under Strategy, Frequent, Community, etc?

I ask because I want to use these as a User to vary my play calling, but I've never figured out how the system follows the gameplan. For example - I created a custom PB and set something unique and easy to remember (wr quick) as the 5star 1st down play, with about a dozen other 1star as a test...but I never saw WR Quick Suggested, or in Strategy, or Frequent. Where should this be showing up when having the CPU suggest the plays?

Thanks again gents!

This is the exact question I have as well. It seems the play call suggestions is pulled from about only 20 plays. Same plays suggested over and over
