Okay, so I understand correctly. Pick all 32 coaches, have the cpu fill rosters. Play your desired teams games and advance week and the cpu will sim the rest. No drive goals? Or no drive goal boosts? Or no drive goal pop-ups?

Sucks there always requires a work around. Just want to play the mode as intended and let the CPU make its own decisions all the time without me handicapping the system. Even if their moves are at times foolish.

So let me get this straight...the patch made the game worse, not better? Qb's no longer miss passes?

I sure am glad I didnt buy this game yet

The patch fixed multiple items but there are still some items that need fixing. It's not fair to say the patch was a failure. There is some belief that the patch and tuner are creating some issues when paired together.


on field in play now still the best madden to date. CFM is a mixed bag of apples at this point.

yes it definitely messed with gameplay in CFM.


I never saw the CPU Robo QB until after the patch. its disappointing but am hoping they can fix it. I really was enjoying the game.

Problem is that long time 32 team cfm advocate Armor and Sword says 32 team control cfms are buggy

To be honest i don´t think i t is the patch since play now still plays great. Its the CFM that have some issues, i believe it is the confidence thing, since its the only difference i see from Play Now to CFM.

and the thing with confidence, it never goes down. it always going up. make no sense.

Like i said it feels like the UI is fixed it, but the players are still performing with 100+ rating boost even when the UI says it´s not. I always go to the QB and OL because that is very visible, since never ever had that happened on Play now.

destiny doesn´t want me to play this game! come on! just give me a decent workaround for this confidence thing! I feel like im playing on All pro, and then after week 7 i get the difficultly reset to rookie. how i´m suppose to set a slider if the confidence thing change things so much?

Funny, I didn't see this kind of stuff in my test CFM pre patch. I went 7-0 with the Lions and then I lost two games including 37-14 to the Packers and then I won 23-6 vs the raiders ( was putting up 30+ points a game before that).

Thats really a shame. I was looking forward to buying this weekend since everyone seemed to think this was the best madden ever.

Its always something with this game.

really? have you entered the depth chart? it was very well known bug. Players were given boost that past 100 mark rating.

If you like to play now games, you should it is amazing. But if you are a CFM, you may be disappointed.

All the organic and realistic game play you get from play now games is gone on CFM. Well not entirely, but you see it less often, it feels like a game. What got me worried is since the confidence is dynamic, how i can change sliders? do i set them for players with 99 confidence( since i will be there in a few weeks and i don´t see how players can go down).

My biggest problems with ratings boost from confidence are QB and OL play. i may try to set both at 0 for user and see how it goes. I honestly don´t know how to go forward with this.

I will never understand the issues EA has when it comes to tuning or patching.

"Patch Notes:
Only affects WRs/DBs....I repeat ONLY!!!!!!!

Week later
QB completion percentages go from 50/60% to 75/90%"

I'm being sarcastic obviously with the QB percentages but how does this happen?? I shouldn't ask that because I already know the answer. Remember the whisper game when you were like 5 or 6? Whisper a phrase into classmate ear, they then whisper it to someone else, this then continues around the room. The last person then says out loud the phrase, which will be different from when it started. The more people involved the more things get distorted. Apply this to developing a video game and multiple hands involved, you get this kind of stuff.

Hi howboutdat,

first, on screenshot it doesn´t look that bad. That´s why i didn´t post any screenshots since as myself will say, hey that´s not bad. your player is 85 overall and it only increased to 88 in 3 weeks. 1 overall per game. Not that bad.

QB numbers are SA 88 MA 87 DA 61
With confidence increased to SA to 92, MA 90 DA 63 It´s only 3 or 4 rating boost (so far, he is 80 overall he can still increased).

The problem is on the field and i can´t show you a screenshot of that. The game plays the same as it was before teh patch. feeling that you can beat every player, your QB never miss a throw, your OL start pancaking DL like if they were DB.

To me personally, it seems like they tweaked the UI but the game behave exactly the same. Screenshots shows UI, so it will be pointless to post it.

EA fixed the UI, that´s for sure. but my QB is still throwing like when his accuracy was like 100+

I can show you my OL being on top of the NFL in pancakes if you want. that i can do.

Seriously? Man wth, im pulling my hair out over here reading that. I just dunno what to even say anymore......this is unacceptable.

Gonna go on a limb fellas but I think we are witnessing ol Ben haubamillers finest here. Those that have played NCAA since his take over know good and well this has his name all over it as we have felt it every year...it's just been a while so it feels new. NCAA would be running great before patch...just some Sim stats and some dynasty stuff would need fixed...but before you know it...patch would hit rendering that Game useless in dynasty. Oh well

Well, I only play CFM, so this is pretty much a game killer for me. Guess i cant buy this weekend now. Very disappointing

"Same as it ever was"

They try, they fail, they flail (rinse and repeat)

It's all very well intentioned, but the only reasonable / expedient solution would be to give up on the box features and the mess they engender...

They happily remove things like formation subs, so why not simply remove this year's version of "The Cone", (or any of the other lost causes of iterations past)...

EVERY tuner and patch made a poor effort even worse last year, and so far they're on track to repeat that with M16...

Even 32 Team Control is borked for the first time this year...the list gets longer by the hour...
