Madden 17 Everything Playbooks (custom) for the CPU or user

Re: Madden 17 Everything Playbooks (custom) for the CPU or user

You need to create a 2nd user profile WITHIN your cfm of the team your playing. Create a 3rd on depth chart and Undrafted qb.

So two players or 1? I picked the 3rd string and have a 2nd user. You can't have both running at the same time

Are you in cloud or offline?

This works offline only.

If you ever get the glitch where you're on defense and you see the CPU's next play in the formation "Special Teams" and it's NOT 4th down (IE they should NOT be in special teams), DON'T play the down. The CPU will hike the ball, run to the back of the end zone, and the game will get stuck.

Go to super sim if you can and skip forward just one play. Not the best thing in the world but at least it prevents the game from hanging up.

I think it's the ideal (Bree's) versus rothlesberger's aggressive. Which I think makes Ben try and squeeze the ball in if open or not.

I'm tempted to edit every QB I go up against aggressive. Makes the game so much more fun and challenging.

Playbook is not working. Might just set QB to Agg

Aggressive meaning they don't throw ball away?

Throw ball away is its own slider, so I don't think it pertains to that.

I believe aggressive applies to how likely they are to force it to a WR downfield.

To me, based on about 15-20 games testing, this means essentially less check down passes to the TE/HB and more 15+ yard passes to WR's...which means more interceptions/tipped balls/and interesting animations than 2 yard flat routes.

Are you offline? And did you setup 2 profiles on Xbox/PS4?

Sense Pressure
Forces Passes
Throw Ball Away

Which one of those is aggressive?

PS4 and I have two profiles

Is this possible, folks:

If you do 32-team control, in team setting you can set offensive and defensive pb's for all teams. I am wondering if you just add the edited Offensive or Defensive pb's to each team in the team settings section - instead of doing the 3rd qb workaround - will that apply the pb permanently to each team. Is this a feasible idea ?

Thanks

Forces Passes = aggressive I believe. That one.

And you're positive you're saving the custom playbook to the 2nd profile (the one you use for the 3rd string QB) and NOT your main profile?

You can give it a shot. I tried it last year and it didn't work. And I can't really remember why.

Yes. Second controller is red. That is where it's saved. I can use for Human, but PS4 error when CPU

In cfm it doesn't give you the option to switch to a custom playbook. It just shows the stock ones. That's the bad news but the good news is because of this you can still do formation subs and they stick with the custom book when doing this workaround.

Swagger- I just had an incredible overtime game with Arizona and I was the Seahawks. I was down 20-10 in the 4th and tied it up. But I had a gem with Olmert like you were talking bout. I started playing hard flats as he dumped off to Johnson out of backfield over and over. Then he started throwing the ball away and was 21-44 passing. Mind you I didn't adjust his aggressive b4 the game.

So this could be 1 of 2 things...

1- the aggressive style needs to be added to all qb's?

2- could be a slider thing as coverage is too good possibly so guys are not open he thinks so chooses dump down or throws oob?

Also, I am on the Xbox but have not had any issues with freezing with custom books... Knock on wood...
