Just finished an online cfm. Looks even better now. Gonna make one instant change:

Knocking Roughing the Passer down to 51. Seen 5 in the first game. 51 should give a 1-3, i’m Hoping.pass deflections look good too. Even with the last patch. I was seeing 11 a game. The raiders averaged 3.5 a game. It’s even better now, the wr/dB interactions.

Christmas came early with this patch, and im not chasing sliders.

Anyone else getting an abusrd amount of false start calls? I'm getting about 10 a game

I knocked it back down to 35 this morning. Was about to post the change.

Only changes:

False Start 35
Roughing the passer 51

Two slight changes to penalty sliders:

False Start 35
Roughing the passer 51

Just now got back to testing. Took a slight break. Game still looks good online, HC00023 says Play Now is good. Not sure about offline CFM, but if online’s working i think offline would be too. Heck, DC used them in coach mode against another human. Loving how ea has made same slider set work for all the different modes.

Started a new test for online cfm with the Redskins. Got them in year 2 now/week 1 against the Vikings. 3-0 Vikes with 5 minutes left in the first half. Looks and plays even better since the patch. Deflections seem to be fixed.

The scoring has been slightly higher as well, which was needed. Most games were in the 20s before, but now I’m seeing 30-20 type games. Thinks that help the game play better: 1. Don’t skip cutscenes. The game gets pretty whacky and highly unstable when you do. Skipping cutscenes makes things more like Madden Arcade. 2. Go to Main Menu—->Share and Manage files—->load and delete——>Delete the file titled playcall; this improves playcalling. Gets a better run/pass, especially more run plays. 4. NOT SEEING THE PUNT GLITCH AT ALL ANYMORE, BUT IF YOU DO SEE IT USE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.If you see the crazy punt glitch, where during wind games, the team punting into the wind can only punt it 20 yards or so straight up in the sky, just super sim punts on normal. No way to tell if it’s a wind game before hand. So there will be one bad punt. This can really change a game. Wish they’d fix it. For now, this is all we can do. 5. Go to Files and Settings; find playcalling; delete the file called Suggestions. Also I’m using the active rosters. Main difference i see using this setup is this: inside the ten yard line, you rarely see the cpu come out in jumbo formations. They keep spreading the field and this results in more touchdowns. There are other smaller nuances going on with using these particular settings, but after 30+ games with this combo, I feel like playcalling and formation use is way more dynamic. Simply put, it seems like the teams play more towards their schemes. 6. PLAY THE KEY MOMENTS ADVICE: If there’s games you’d like to Play the Key Moments on, I suggest using 15 minute clock with 25 runoff for those games. I’m not sure the 10 minute clock will give enough plays. 15/25 should work aces for the amount of plays you watch with play the key moments. 15/25 will keep the qbs audibling. Gota defensive battle going with the 11-2 Texans (#1 D, best team in the league) vs. the 10-3 eagles who are coming off a 30-11 beatdown from another 10-3 Rams team. Right now it’s 7-3 with a minute and a half before the half. Before you load sliders, delete your profile and choose expert and sim upon Intro Setup.

I start my cfm in preseason, set up the sliders and i change my list of qbs to scramblers. Takes maybe 5 minutes to do. Scrambling is way better this year than last. Last year they took off way too much. Not the case here. Seen Cam have 8 for 50 the other night and some of the runs were designed draws and read options. Was pretty cool. I think cam audibles to a qb draw once. Good stuff. Here’s the scramblers list. Just go to player edits and on the traits screen change qb style. Tribusky Josh Allen (i think he’s already a scrambler) Newton Mayfield Dax Prescott Aaron Rodgers Deshaun watson Tanneyhill Wentz Russel wilson Pat Mahomes Marcus Mariotta (think he’s already set, check to make sure) Bortles Lamar Jackson (already changed on most current roster Skill Level - Pro Game Speed - Normal League Type - COACHES and OWNERs (but choose the owners only when signing up for a team.

Use default Auto subs. Game treats auto subs different when you don’t use accelerated clock. ***************** Formation Sub tips: Here in the playoffs, for this next game, im messing more with formation subs for running backs. It took maybe 2-3 minutes to make these subs. Adds a little more strategy to the games. The running backs are the only formation subs I’ll use. After the tips, there’s stats from this strategy for the Lions/Eagles game. I’ve already got the other playoff teams setup like this. 1. Power backs are in all: single back/pistol/shotgun 2 or 3 TE sets 2. I formation and offset I sets 3. Shotgun sets where the running back is about a half yard behind the QB, it’s kind of like the Pistol, but not quite. These forms have more power plays. Elusive/recieving backs 1. Single back/Pistol 3 wide reciever sets 2. Shotgun sets where the RB is lined up directly beside the qb. This will be the only formation subs I’ll do. Some teams, like the lions, have a slew of good backs, and now their top 2 backs are out. For the eagles, i put clements in the aforementioned power type sets. This really helped the run game. Made it way more realistic, and the coaching seemed to use a wide variety for both the Lions and the Eagles. Clement (power back)13-73; 4 catches for 20 Sproles (elusive/recieving back) 8-30; 3-2 recieving Smallwood (power ball) 4-18. Lions didnt run the ball much; their top 2 backs were out and they have a playbook similar to the Pats, so they passed a lot more than they did in the wildcard playoff game. Just a different gameplan this week. Lions backs had Just 14 carries but 8 catches, so 22 total touches. Eagles controlled the time of possession and that’s how the won against their D. The Eagles wore the Lions stout D out and survived 2 giveaways and 0 takeaways. Eagles D played lights out and they were good in the season according to stats. Both dlines effected the outcome of this contest. Lions running backs Rushing/Recieving Riddick (elusive/reciving) 5-21/6-26 Johnson (power) 8-19/ Abdullah (elusive/recieving) 1-9/2-29 The Pats Playbook is the most balanced of the playbooks as far as passing game goes. What i mean is, you see a better distribution of passes to all the targets. The lions playbook has the same kinda setup. ************************* STATS and AVERAGES!!!!! Pretty good stuff and close enough in averages that I now feel 110% confident that these are the best around. This is from 15 ballgames played.

Big time defensive battle between the redskins and Vikings. Vikings have the top rated D in year 2, 91. Redskins are 88. Both are in the low 80s on offense. 14-7 Vikings win. Skins D played bend dont break and kept them in the game while the offense struggled for the better part of the game. Vikings Trae Wayne’s picked a 2 quarter pass but was tackled at 3 and the skins d held them to a FG. That gave the vikes an early 6-0 lead. Skins o could get nothing going untila late game drive cut the lead in half and it was the game’s only TD.

Alex smith only had 99 yards passing going into the 4th quarter.

Pretty good looking stuff in this game with a boxscore that’s rare for madden standards.

I only delete my profile when you update the sliders or when there is a patch. I always delete the play call suggestions bout to kick off Minnesota Green Bay right now. Game is kinda fun for me wife’s family is from Minnesota and are HUGE Vikings fan and I grew up with a father who was is and always be a diehard Packers fan.
