Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

Re: Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

@Alston4659 are you playing as a coach or as a third quarterback for both teams?

Coach BUT I ran into the same problem when I tried to do it earlier today with the invisible players. The error actually caused my PS5 to corrupt my Madden profile and deleted it. Luckily my franchise saves were intact.

yes I can confirm that this definitely does NOT work on PS 4. The team that you select to go into the game with his fine, but the team that you place the center controller into does not exist in the game. It's only one team that shows up for the game. They literally line up against nobody. Awesome glitch. I love EA

can someone please report this as a bug?

Re: Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

Stupid question but how do you load a playbook prior to going into the controller screen?

I should have been more clear...I meant when you get to the controller screen, I have 2 controllers...one for each team. I load playbooks and uniforms for each and then go to the game. Once game starts, I actually perform the kickoff and then pause game and move both controllers to middle.

You must be talking about play now because in CFM you don't have the option in game to switch controllers.

Re: Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

I’m pretty sure it’s impossible to use customs playbooks for both teams and play cpu vs cpu. Second team does not so up on the field. I’ve been trying this for several maddens now with now luck. It would be an absolute god send if we could assign custom playbooks to cpu teams.

Re: Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

I was able to do this in Madden 17. Then I bought 19 and didn't even try and 22 is impossible so maybe 17 was the last one you could do it with?

Anyway, I've switched to Madden 20 on PC so I'm hopeful that it might be possible to do on PC

Re: Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

Maybe next year in Madden 23 we will be able to have the following:

1) The ability to select all 32 teams to control at the beginning of a Franchise without having to create 32 coaches.

2) The ability to play as well as spectate any game, User or otherwise, within a Franchise.

3) The ability to assign custom playbooks to all teams without workarounds.


The other two major sports gaming franchise already have this in their games. I don't see why it shouldn't be in Madden.

The team’s aren’t disappearing on me. it works like it has for 4-5 years. im using the play the moments hack, not the 3rd team qb hack.

start a game in Play the moment with 2 controllers.

set up custom books.

the game will start on super sim fast with text messages. you may miss a couple of plays. back out of it and choose slow speed for super sim.

I didn't know you could do sim slow with 2 assigned teams. Haven't tried in a while but thought slow was locked out.

the trick is you cant control both teams you wath. if you control ownership of both eams playing, you wont get the play the moments option when you go to play a game tab. you’ll go straight to controller select screen.

This method is way quicker than the third qb option. only negative is you may miss a couple of plays when the fast super sim starts with play the moments. youtot to be quick to back out of PTM

Watched the video I have two questions does it have to be the same custom playbook and two how do you get the option to select play the moment?

Re: Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

Watched the video I have two questions does it have to be the same custom playbook and two how do you get the option to select play the moment?

those were two differnt playbooks i downloaded randomly on madden share just to test.

to access play the moments, you can only have control of one team. by have control, I mean, using a character—coach, owner, player. I make any changes to the team I’m playing because the stick, your changes do, and then I quit as that coach/owner.

You can’t use this method with 32 team control. I mean you can, but you have to retire your control of the character. PTM only shows up if only one of the 2 teams are human controlled. very hard to explain. not sure why you can’t do it in 32 team. This game is goofy.

I have also been messing with super sim on normal and fast speed. works much better this year. it’s finally fixed. I’m using 15 min quarters and Im seeing 128-132 plays per game. stats look good too. I’m watching all the games this way and cutting in and watching big moments. Kinda like the redzone channel. man i wish Madden had a cpu vs cpu redzone channel option. as popular as red zone is, you’d think madden would have it.

I’ve got a pretty goot set of sliders I just finalized as well.

Biggest hoop to hurdle this year is progressive fatigue. even with it off it screws with the game. I went and did the original workaround where I turn practice trining to half pads and backups. it works. no players sub out.

hate when they add stuff like progressive fatigue. it was alread in the game in 21 and back. as you went through the season, running backs would get tired quicker but they’d never disappear. I can’t stand seeing the rbs disappear.

Re: Using 2 controllers with custom playbooks for CPU vs CPU games

Yes I agree and hopefully EA will get it right for us cpu vs cpu players. I can't find a ps5 so still on ps4 but I read earlier today on ps5 the dynamic feature where players and coaches adjust. I was wondering if the coaching adjust happens on cpu vs cpu. Something about fatigue that really bothers me is when playing around with it and still putting QB stamina at 99 they still want to do the jogging animation. Reminder cpu vs cpu so I can't really control how often a QB wants to run.
