Is there any information on what will be adjusted via TUNERS as opposed to patches?

So, getting back to the actual topic of what tuners can address: what about simmed stats? I know it doesn't bother a lot of you, but the awful QB completion %s are killing the game for a few of us. Can this be fixed via tuners or are we stuck with it until the next patch (at the very least)?

Until the developers identify it's an issue, not sure when it will be addressed.

I was under the impression tuners were in-game gameplay adjustments mostly aimed at any balance issues - e.g. toning down FG blocking may have been a tuner instead, or fullbacks being particularly poor at identifying lead blocks etc. Stuff sliders alone can't solve since they are gameplay wide and not situational. I was also under the impression tuners had a slight online-gamer bias, i.e. a way to combat serious glitches.

So I wouldn't think stuff like sim stats and UDFA bodies etc can be a tuner set, but maybe I misinterpreted their purpose.

actually I do remember it being said that sim stats can be affected by a tuner, logic can be affected by a tuner. The issue I believe is that the sim stats "engine" is so erratic and fragile that they have a hard time adjusting one thing without totally screwing up something else. I would not be surprised if they are looking into it but are very wary from past experience to do anything to drastic.

I do however completely understand your want for sim stats to be totally realistic. Some people say baseball is more of a stats driven game, I think football is just as much if not more of a stat driven game, I think stats in football tell the story of a game better than they do in baseball, and even more simply, who thinks its remotely possible for Aaron Rodgers to complete 52% of his passes over a majority of a season, c'mon now, I get your frustration.
