Re: CPU Press Coverage

THIS! I've been searching for answers for this. I'm playing as my niners in franchise. I'm not using any sliders, just playing on all pro. I wouldn't say it's happening on every play, but I'll get it from time to time. If I see someone on press coverage against Torrey Smith then I'm hot routing it to a fade (although it turns into a streak) and he tends to beat them on the streaks. I'll usually only do it if the FS isn't playing deep or there's only one safety playing deep.

My first game was against the Rams, Torrey Smith had 4 Receptions, 96 Yards and 2 TD's. Won 24-19

Next game was against the Panthers, threw it deep to smith only a few times. He ended up with 8 receptions, 146 Yards and 1 TD. Won 20-16. Defense sacked Cam 7 times. Probably would've lost if Jonathan Stewart didn't fracture his foot in the first quarter. He had 66 yards on 11 carries.

And in my last game, torrey had 5 receptions on 118 yards. Won 20-6. It honestly should've been a blown out. Seahawks should've blown me out, but they kept turning the ball over in the red zone. I don't user in any of my games. Wilson threw for 364 Yards, 0 TD's and 4 INT. Thomas Rawls fumbled once as well. Jimmy Graham didn't play, he has a torn hamstring or something along those lines. Please tell me it was purely luck. Idk I'm thinking about switching to all madden.

I haven't played with any good quarterbacks yet, so hopefully you are right about this only affecting bad QB's. But then again, I want this patched in.

CPU Wilson seems to have a tendency to throw INTs in this game. He threw 2 pick 6's in the last game I played and threw 3 more in the game prior. They seem to make him way too careless with the ball.

Re: CPU Press Coverage

I'm noticing this as well. CPU is playing a lot of press against Arob and Hurns and it's giving me a ton of easy TDs.

Re: CPU Press Coverage

I actually use this to my advantage in a different way. I'll set the CPU up with runs and shot quick passes then when they play press man or man 2 ill take my shots. It's like a lot of stuff in madden over the years you just have to regulate yourself so you don't abuse it and keep the game sim.

Re: CPU Press Coverage

I moved my pass accuracy slider down to 30. It solved the problem. I can still beat a weaker corner sometimes, which is good. But Not a money play TD at all. Plus the safeties do make adjustments sometimes. And that's a pick usually.

Re: CPU Press Coverage

Thank you for starting this thread. I logged on to start one exactly like it!

I play with the Dolphins, and have seen press coverage almost every play, every single game, through seven weeks. I've used the Packers playbook for years, and my offense relies on a lot of WR screens, slants and crossing patterns. These are either impossible or much more difficult to execute against press, so when I call a screen, and they're in that defense (which is almost always), I have to audible out. I don't throw deep unless my man is wide open. I'd much rather have a 10-15 yard drive moving down the field safely, so this is really frustrating me to no end.

Re: CPU Press Coverage

The CPU plays press coverage with only one safety deep on all-pro. They seem to do it regardless of down and distance and game situation. 3rd and 17 press coverage single high safety. Up eight with less than a minute left press coverage single high safety. They really got to tune or patch it quick.

Re: CPU Press Coverage

Changed to All Madden and I'm rarely seeing the press coverage and the single high safety
