Two sack-fumbles in the first quarter of my first game post-tuner, one by each team. Quit overreacting guys, they're still in there. "Slightly reduced" does not mean "completely eliminated".

well seems they said something similar for strip fumbles too ,and they are almost completely gone, so i guess most of us who thought it would do the same for this ,was going off what just happened recently.

Glad to hear its still in the game and working.People need to not be counting on that "madden save me" stuff they have grown accustomed to over the years.Its time it was gone.

people want to complain without even trying it first

I'm not complaining, but I make my judgement by feel. I can tell you that I do not enjoy the game play as much post these latest patches and tuners. It feels very arcade like, and very stale. This tuner certainly FEELS like a step in the wrong direction.

Guys this video is the insta-shed being talked about. And if this is happening a lot I am fine with it getting tuned down as most people wouldn't have time to complete a pass. The guy is in the QB's face within a second of snapping the ball.

Man this is most realistic than O-line sticked glue at DE

Don't understand how they made kicking easier, you hardly ever see a CPU team miss a FG unless it was 45 yds or longer and the only reason they missed was because of the wind. They didn't need to reduce the power of the punter; we could do that just by lowering their rating. What they needed to fix was the wind direction. That would have made kicking easier without adjustments. I have done everything I can to help the CPU miss FG's as is. I lower each kicker's acc by 20 to 25 points before a game and have the sliders set at 40, and still hardly ever see a miss. When they do it's because they think they are kicking with the wind and instead they are kicking against it. Same with the punters, they adjust for the wind, So when they think they are kicking with it, they are actually kicking against it, then it results in extremely short punts, and when they think they are kicking against it they boot it for 70 yds.

Is this the first big patch proper, or something smaller, with the first big patch still on the way?

No this is not the title update/patch this is a smaller tuner

Do you know if the offline formation subs issue will be in that patch?

actually i thought it began when they pretty much did away with the strip feature that played great at launch, now i cant buy one .

This worked so well, especially when a ball carrier had just broken a tackle and you came in with the strip button.

Just play a cfm game on all madden and I'm getting a lot more pressure on the cpu QB. 6 sacks in the first half with the titans

it was good but just a lil too powerful. They way it is now is perfect. I still get tons of strip fumbles in online games. Just know who is carry the ball and how low there carry rating is. The chargers RB Melvin Gordon will fumble all the time if you use the strip ball mechanic on him, so it's still pretty balanced and effective. Before guys with high 80's and 90's rating would still always fumble on the strip.

I like it the way it is. I even have a couple of games before the fumble fix were me and my opponent would strip fumble each other back to back to back times in a online game.

Odd , it must have a opposite effect on online cfm gameplay then, because in ours, we hardly see it ever happen since then.I literally try about 70% of my tackles to strip it first. I think ive gotten maybe 1 or 2 .... tops out of 7 weeks of trying.Thats not ok in my book.

Haven't played with this tuner and I may not download it. I have the game playing just the way I want it at this point. Always makes me nervous when they start tweaking gameplay. Ruined my experience in NCAA 14.

Any news on the Madden Companion App?

I played one game with tuner so far, 13 min quarters, 15 second clock. Broncos (me) vs Bengals, Charters sliders

It's just one game but I felt the pressure/pass rush was definitely nerfed on both sides. I saw a lot more patty cake static line play and even less movement than before. I guess I can tweak the penalty and blocking sliders to get back to where it was before.

I never saw a "insta shed" problem before, but that's just me, I have always been in favor of pass rush and pressure so maybe I was always biased. Good pass rushers are good pass rushers, most madden players never hot route TE or HBs to help block, heaven forbid they have to account for a good pass rush.

To add: I'm also seeing no lack of front 7 pressure from the CPU. It's not the "insta-sheds" as they called them, but it's still defensive wins that force me to get the ball out within 3-4 seconds.

This twitter converstation kind of explains what's going on, and it does reflect what I'm seeing so far:

Clint said its possible for auto sub stuff to be in the upcoming patch
