This is one of the fastest moving threads I can remember in a long time. So with that said, its very hard to keep up with what is "known" and what is "speculated".

Yeah it would really help to have some specific threads on certain items at this point, IMO, since it is hard to keep up. You ask a question (or someone else) and it gets lost before anyone can answer it.

I've looked all over but the thread is moving too quick. What exactly is 32 team control resolving for offline CFMs?

I saw that the awareness issue for QBs can be resolved/mitigated by doing weekly progression, but can't seem to find an actual explanation of what 32 team control does.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry if this seems rude. But what are you talking about? Can you explain in detail what you are doing to replicate your gameplay experience ?

Go to the thread below. but the short version. playing 32 control offline CFM disables Drive goals.

Drive goals are making confidence unbalance so after 4 or 5 weeks you will have tons of confidence, it seems little but it affect gampleay in a big time.

Sorry for the confusion. The LT regression issue is a sim issue and from what I have been reading here if you set up 32 team control and set the other 31 teams to weekly progression it in effect counteracts the regression issue.

This thread contends that the best fix for the inflated sack stats that lead to the LT regression issue are most easily fixed by changing QB traits:

In this thread, the contention is that setting progression to weekly helps minimimze both the LT regression and QB AWR regression / failure to progress:

32 Team Control, helps by shutting of Drive Goals and minimizing confidence, but the specific LT and QB regression issues are in need of an extra workaround...

Does it counter the issue because the cpu uses their weekly points on PB to keep it up in the 70s? I can see how that would work but at the same time, if that is the case, it is wasted a lot of xp that is already hard to come by.

I think it counters the issue by keeping QB AwR from regressing, this in turn helps them take less sacks. Less sacks means the LTs don't regress as badly.

Thank you, I was looking all over for that!

So essentially more "either or" gaming?

I'm not sure if I understand the question, but to me it looks like it's worth implementing all three (or four) current, available workarounds / fixes:

1) Minimal QB Roster Edits

2) 32 Team Control

3) Weekly Progression

And:

4) Deciding if you prefer the WR / DB tuner "on" or "off"...

Personally, I'm used to do this much or more every year, so it's turning into less of a big deal to me as the members of this fine forum continue to make the game as playable as possible...

Thanks y'all!

As for TRADES in a 32-team User Control CFM, you can make any trade you want......even if it's Luck in exchange for a long snapper. There's nothing to stop you from doing that, other than the salary cap.

The "CPU controlled" teams can be set to do everything else with free agents, XP, roster moves, etc. and it functions very well with those. But in a 32-team CFM, the CPU will never initiate a trade, nor will it respond to a trade offer on it's own.

Of course while that's a slight bummer, I strongly encourage everyone to do the 32-team CFM because that trade logic seems to be the ONLY thing you'll miss out on. I did this in Madden 15, and it worked like a charm. Thanks to everyone recommending this. Can't wait for the roster update!

Is there a place I can go on the XB1 that shows that the patch is installed? I have not seen any patch pop up - but I assume it installed on its own or something? Is there anyway to check?

How come in CFM you can't put TE's at long snapper but outside of CFM you can?

Thanks for bringing this up. I assume this then means during the draft, there will be no trades, either, for teams to move up/down. This definitely stinks, but it's something I can live with if it means getting rid of the drive goals. That to me makes CMF unplayable versus having little to no trading.

So........... Are the fast rookies (that used to be a huge problem), not a huge problem any longer??? Earlier in the thread it was considered game killer. Now... I haven't heard a peep about it.

I believe this is being addressed in the roster update with faster veterans.

I was under the impression that that also was only assumed, or speculation. Has that been confirmed? I'm not really worried about the rookies. Just making notes of what all to change, and look out for.
