Re: Madden 19 CPU vs CPU Sliders

So were those stats you posted on pro or all madden?

Tommy, about to input the most recent Settings you provided. I see you said to turn all assists off. When it comes to ball carrier special move, the options are manual, auto, assist. Should it be manual? I believe you had it at auto a few days ago. Also does it matter whether or not auto flip defensive play call is on or off?

Yeah. Put it on Manual. And flip play off.

Watching the Jags and the Pats week 2. I’ve got both coaches ran by humans. Jags have the controller side.

Seen the jags go for it twice on one drive with 10 minutes left in the 2 quarter. Never seen this. First they went for it on 4 and 4 on the pats 42. A few plays later They faked a FG and kept the drive alive, then they took a 17-7 lead. No INTS so far.

The Pats seems to run the ball too much.

Brady 10-16 135 1 TD 3 minutes left in the half. Pats just converted a 3 and 17 and it got called back.

Oh my. Brady just evaded a sack and threw a 40 yard TD. 17-14 Jags.

Man this is looking good. TFLs have been good too. In the past, The game plays better when you get on into the season. Week One isn’t the best test. Need to play multiple weeks to get a good read.

CPU vs CPU guys have it made this release.

Re: Madden 19 CPU vs CPU Sliders

Look guys, game plays more evenly if the user has control of the two coaches playing. Mash the right stick and create a new character but keep the original coach.

Re: Madden 19 CPU vs CPU Sliders

In terms of the overall rating of a team what do you guys think a big gap is versus a small or medium gap? For example, if one team is an 82 and another is a 77 is that considered a big gap? If the 77 wins is that a big upset?

What gap do you expect to win almost all the time versus what is within the range of being closely matched teams?

Interesting. If there is only one human controlled team, who do you think is favored this year? Human or computer?

Also, can you create just one additional character and rotate that character between teams or do you need to create a new character and put them in charge of every single team on your schedule?

Each week do this for your opponent, then retire the character. Don’t worry, it won’t fire Pete Carrol or whoever the character is. The CPU will simply take back control.

20-17 Jags 11:21 left in the 3

The average NFL game isn’t close. The winning team wins by an 11-12 point average.

This link is from a 2014 i think. So some averages have changed. This is the best data on averages I can find.

Hasn’t the concern in the past always been that the human team is given an advantage? If that is the case, I feel pretty confident in saying that is not the case in this game. I’m just trying to figure out how necessary it is to make sure the game is human versus human because I’m definitely not questioning if the human has an advantage. If anything, I have a concern that the human might have a disadvantage.

In years past, the human was at both a bad advantage and a good advantage. The past games had too much momentum going on under the hood. You’d see a team have 3 quick turnovers that results in scores for the opposing team. Stats would be close, but the score wouldn’t reflect it because of those crazy momentum swings that looked more like NCAA style ball than NFL.

This year things seem even.

Week 1 I controlled the Pats they won by 11 over Texans and they just beat the Jags by 17.

Only 2 picks, both by Bortles in that game. Week 2 picks didn’t seem as bad. Still havent seen a fumble though. Also may see if the kickoff slider works. Not enough touchbacks and there’s tons of short kicks that give the return team good field position.

So far these seem pretty good. Especially this early in the release with no player edits. Not gonna tweak much now. Just want to enjoy it.

Got it. I’m in my first game with your sliders right now and for what it’s worth I did see a sack fumble.

Also, still playing with just one human controlled team.

Take back the fumble thing. Deshaun Watson fumbled twice against the Pats, just like he did last season. Haven’t seen other players fumble though.

Also, about kickoffs, remember that touchbacks come out to the 25 yard line now anyway. So keep that in mind when considering what good starting field position is. May not be necessary to play with the sliders there too much.

The special-teams oddity that stands out to me is how often kickers try long field goals. It’s not just the length of a field goal, but sometimes it’s fourth and inches and they will try a 55 yard field goal. Most teams would go for in that case. That said, I can live with that. Just nitpicking.
