JoshC1977's M16 Sliders

[eastcoast49ers]

Default All-Pro played real nice for me. Will need a few small tweaks but nothing major. Things i noticed after the patch:

CPU QB is smarter. Will get flushed from the pocket instead of taking a sack.

Cpu pass rush is legit. Finally felt some true heat when they blitz.

Looking forward to what you come up with Josh.

A couple more thoughts after testing tonight:

• CPU pass rush is definitely legit. I definitely felt the heat on many plays
• Minimal tweaks should be needed to many slider sets.
• WR/DB interactions look and feel less scripted. Good players made more catches in traffic than mediocre players
• Line mis-matches seemed to play out more fluidly.
• Big one....the QB scrambling issues with pocket passers also seemed to be resolved. Played against Matt Ryan (a notorious scrambler pre-patch). He took off once and it was on the goal line when everyone was covered and a hole opened up in the middle of the line (they were in spread). He scored the TD easily - thing of beauty.

So....this is where I have tentatively landed with the sliders tonight....the big change being the bump in the holding slider. With the re-tuned line play, we can get away with a much higher value. 45-50 was OK, but line play really came alive at 40.

The one thing I am looking at is the CPU run game. The elevated fumble slider (to 55) gave the CPU run game a bit more oomph. Regardless, using CFM default rosters, a 75 overall Devonta Freeman and an outclassed Falcons O-line barely eeked out 50+ yards vs. the Eagles (so the ratings held nicely). I need to see more mis-matches in their favor with elite backs to see if they can do more damage. If not, I will likely look at the RBK and FUM slider. I don't plan on dropping the TAK slider - it just messes with too many other things....


This patch really fixed a lot of issues IMO....hopefully that holds up.


One final side bar....I am contemplating looking at doing an All Madden set. I already started the process over the weekend. I will give the All Pro setup my first priority, but I want a tad more challenge.

Ballhawk
AutSwitch
Auto Lateral
Ect?

There is no longer a prompt for the tuner...so no.

I use none of the assists.

With the new patch, do you have to restart your franchise?

No idea....take a look at the patch notes. I will be restarting as I never made it far in one.

Josh, I have always thought that lowering fumble slider increases CPU run game. Lowering it increases fumbles by allowing the CPU RB to do more moves and be more dynamic. Are you sure you don't have it reversed?
