Re: Title Update Is Out (Notes w/ link inside)

There’s so much we don’t know, but it seems the easiest fix would be for CPU to default to no pads wvery week.

Because if CPU player development suffers as a result, could we not adjust xp?

XP sliders apply to human teams as well. That is not the answer.

I hope the can figure out how to tune it properly. It is a ambitious feature and I am very happy they brought it into franchise.

Has anyone truly tested penalties in franchise mode? I am not home and won’t be playing till tonight.

Yeah but really are these guys just a loud minority ? They keep saying how their numbers say that the majority of players are franchise and that's why they did so much to it this year. You just have to be careful. Just because you see lots of post doesn't mean that's the majority of users.

And that goes both ways, too.

The trouble is EA tries to appeal to everyone and you can slice yourself thin trying to appeal to everyone.

With your franchise sliders and the penalties set to 60 as you suggest, I played the Dallas/Arizona pre season game and had 3 blocking in the backs on ME and one single holding call on ME. Seems about normal compared to previous Maddens.. I would experiment with increasing your penalty sliders maybe... either way, it seemed fine if I just ignored the lack of random equally sided penalties like I do every year.. lol. I love this year's Madden, tho.. I expect it to get better with each update. Now that I can actually play like I did every year since the dawn of time with proper scores, I can manage, I think. We're in a good spot.

wondering now about just starting an ONline franchise and control the 32 teams for the whole experience... The only negative would be when the servers are down, right? hmm...

Anyone notice any “little things” since the patch, I.e new tackle animations, player interactions/movement, etc? Small attention to detail things that they wouldn’t have listed in the notes basically.

I noticed that the crowd's jersey numbers are no longer all zeros...they are wearing all different player numbers.

I ran a sim and QBs ranged anywhere from 89 yards and down. Lots of 70s and 60s. Same for Wideouts. I didn't see anything glaring. Lamar Jackson's long was only 38 but I think that looked to be an outlier for most starting QBs from what I got.

Offline? This is an offline issue. Online does not have the longest pass 25 yard bug.

I know it is being foxed for offline though….probably next update.

Which apparently wasn't done on the front end. Push it out the door & fix it later move.

To be fair, I'm pretty sure that their contract with the NFL likely stipulates a release deadline of some sort, so perhaps they really didn't have the much of an option to just "wait" while they fix it.

Here are stats i simmed in first year for offline franchise mode :

Tom Brady : 4441 passing yards, 44 passing TD
Patrick Mahomes : 4196 passing yards, 46 passing TD

Nick Chubb : 2014 rushing yards, 26 rushing TD
Christian McCaffrey : 1579 rushing yards, 16 TD

Mike Evans : 125 receptions, 1294 receiving yards, 9 TD
Allen Robinson : 99 receptions, 1094 receiving yards, 11 TD

Aaron Donald : 24 sacks
Von Miller : 23 sacks
Khali Mack : 22 sacks

Kareem Jackson : 6 ints
Darius Slay Jr : 6 ints

QB rushing yards
Lamar Jackson : 857 rushing yards with 9 rushing TD
Kyler Murray : 480 rushing yards with 9 rushing TD

I don't really mind the high sacks, let's not forget that the sack record is 22.5 in a 16 game season. With 17 games, I suppose it could be realistic to see this many.

the only issue I have here are the RB touchdowns, but who the heck knows I guess. That's something I can probably live with at this point. I am hoping that the AVG distance for throws by a QB goes up a little and they tweak that.

I'd rather wait for it to be ready than for the dev team to release it with bugs.

You mean like they should have done with the entire game?

All I’m going to say is…

2 days into September and you seeing deep end dives about how ridiculous it is EA hasn’t released the scouting updated “targeted” for September. Unreal. Lol.

It's quite comical watching people defend this game. With all the D coverage issues this game seems worse than last year on next-gen. Don't know why I expect this update to fix that issue.

No it's comical watching people moan and complain about a video game they could just avoid purchasing.

No. I think it's entirely okay to hold a company accountable for their shortcomings. The budget they have and license this game should be above and beyond what it is right now.

2k just added every NBA teams actual home PA announcer for goodness sake. This game isn't even in the same ballpark.

the NBA also is more open about what they let into their game

if it was 100% up to ea we would have dymniaic attendce full create a team harder hits stuff like hold-outs

[QUOTE=scitychamps87;2050452488]Just as an update, @Equipment_Guru promptly responded to my issue with the Steelers end zones. Happy he still deals with the barrage of negativity on Twitter and engaged the community. It takes a lot of patience

I haven’t kept up with the CPU team progressive fatigue issues in Franchise because I haven’t started mine yet… does a CPU team recognize when it has a short week of rest (such as a Thursday game, Saturday road game, or any game the week after a Monday game) and use Half Pads for that week of practice?

If it doesn’t, that feels like a really low-hanging-fruit starting point to start addressing the issue.
