    Sabo bud... Do you know if we can do Formation subs in CFM with the generic playbooks (West Coast, Run Heavy, etc)?

      Also... Do you have details on what generic playbook would work for each team?

        If you are looking for sim stats and which books to use, then west coast is about 50/50 and run balanced leans towards 46/54 run-to-pass.
        I am not sure if those numbers hold exactly true during super sim for the cpu offense.
        I do know that it is correct when you sim games with no human interaction.

        I did minimal testing on madden 18, as I refuse to play the game at all.
        I did much testing in madden 17 on playbooks and when you edit QB's on the proper scale, and also edit DE/DT - you can get almost exact sim stats.
        Whether the roster in current or classic, if you want realism it is essential to do these things.
        Most people do not care, but they should if they are true fans of NFL.

        PM me if you have any questions.

          I appreciated your breakdown of how you rate/star offensive plays by situation. I'm currently re-booting M16 to get my football fix, and I'm looking to implement your strategies in a custom playbook project for that game.

          My question pertains to your approach for rating/starring defensive plays. Can you give a brief overview of what your approach is there to produce a varied game from the CPU? Did you remove any plays altogether? Did you go with a specific star system for zones vs. man plays vs. blitzes?

          Any insight you could offer would be greatly appreciated.
          Remove all cover 0 blitzes and any cover 1 press... on my tampa 2/cover 3 books i rated those plays with 3 stars, everything else in the book at .5 ... base/hybrid books i just left everything at .5 stars... blitz playbooks i rated all blitz plays 1 star and everything else .5 ...

            Just played a game against the Vikings and lost, but it was a great game. Their offense and defense was unpredictable. No matter what slider set you use I feel like these playbooks make it even more of a challenge because the cpu is calling better plays.

              Re: Sabo's Madden 18 Completed CPU Gameplans Project

              What's the best way to get the ai to play to their strengths? I tried Vannwolfhawk's gameplan's but since he put everything at .5 stars teams just seemingly run plays at random regardless of personel. Also I can't seem to get teams to STOP running once they're down by a lot if I use normal playbooks. I want to mix the two options. Any suggestions?

                    Sorry if this has been asked already or is just common knowledge, but will this only work if I have 2 controllers? I only ever play by myself so I only have the need for one controller. Is there any other way to sort of accomplish this same type thing with only one controller? Thanks

                      Hope this doesn't sound like a dumb question but does anyone have like a formula for the star ratings I'm a kinda old school like running the ball and not be pass happy I've tried making my own custom playbooks and the suggestions are all pass plays

                        There is no way I know of to make it work with 1 controller.

                        Also, if you are playing against the cpu controlling the players or just in Coach mode, and you decide to watch the rest of the game by putting the controller to the middle so CPU controls both teams, I do not believe the playbooks "stick". I think one or both revert to the team specific playbook. Not 100% sure on this but I think so. I don't think you can effectively use custom books in cpu vs cpu mode...even if you select that mode before start of game. I hope I am wrong.

                            Is there anyway to make this work without the CPU changing the roster? For example, I run a 32 team controlling offline franchise. After downloading all of the playbooks and following the directions, I realized that the team that I changed from coach to player now had new starters and cut a few players.

                            Is there any way to avoid this? I need to be able to use the playbooks because the constant 4 verts and play action plays are part of the AI QB issue but I dont want to redo the depth chart every time I play a game.

                              I need a little advice, y'all.

                              I'm unable to make it through even a quarter of a franchise game without the game crashing. I'm getting the CE-34887-0 message repeatedly, despite doing everything exactly as stipulated in the OP.

                              I researched it a bit and the main advice is to initialize the PS4. I did that, reinstalled the game from scratch, and still can't play a franchise game without the crash.

                              Any advice about how to proceed? I'm doing solo, offline CFM, btw.
