Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

[schnaidt1]

Whats up everyone!! I'm back for Next Gen Madden 21. This game is definitely different than its current gen sibling. The player movement and qb play are the 2 things that really stand out. I was able to import most of my settings from current gen but changes were needed. all in all this plays a really great game of football on the field. Franchise mode still leaves a lot to be desired though. Anyway, lets get into the good stuff!!

*1 quick side note*
-These are not 100% set in stone as everyone's skill level is different. Making small changes here and there to cater to your skill level is perfectly fine.


You will also need to pair these up with qb edits for the Cpu! This video will explain how.

If you prefer watching the setup instead, I got you covered with the video below:

5 WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR FRANCHISE EXPERIENCE

https://youtu.be/u_mGsxwX-WI

HOUSE RULES

Spoiler

1. no user catching on offense or defense.

2. No Run/pass Commit

3. This 1 is crucial, don't abuse the CPU. if you know certain plays are money, don't call them all the time and say the game is too easy. play realistically


4. Do not aim the kick meter on field goals. Because I play on pro, kicking is super easy. To add a challenge, leave the kick meter aimed exactly as is, and get the football to go right or left by either timing it too early or too late. This alone makes kicking field goals much more challenging and fun.

Awesome! As soon as I get a chance to play a game I will let you know how they worked for me.

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

Do players still get low on energy with 0 fatigue? Also, has the fatigue setting effected line play?

Side note: I’ve extensively tested CPU defensive sliders because cross routes & the middle of the field are soft. So far I’ve discovered lowering the speed to 5 drastically tightened up coverage.

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

0 fatigue is only at main menu, it's 70 inside franchise.

I tinkered with speed parity but ultimately went back to default for now. If/when ea addresses zone coverage, then i might revisit it...but not until then

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

Thanks for clarifying. Just tested these out & they seem really nice...so nice I’m restarting my franchise lol.

Two quick questions.
1. In regards to not committing to the run or pass, are you referring to audibles or calling a run blitz for example in the play select?

2. Should this be online or offline franchise?

[schnaidt1]

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

1. Neither, you can do both freely, i meant the option to commit to run or pass. It's honestly a carry over from my current gen sliders...i never used it so i never bothered to look if it's in next gen. But its when you are on defense you can call an audible and then commit to run or pass.

2. Either, i used to be against online but they play really well online next gen. Infact my franchise is online and i did the start whatever week you want.

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

Thanks!

Btw...holy ****, these sliders are great! Most fun in madden I’ve had in a very long time.

These sliders, along with qb edits, & in house rules are magic.

I’m two games into my franchise & it feels great.

[schnaidt1]

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

What qb edits are you doing?? Next gen, imo... Doesn't need any qb edits.


Also!!! Huge!! So glad you are enjoying them!!

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

Ah damn, really? Time to restart my franchise lol. I’m running the edits where you increase carry,vision, & then edit tendencies (force pass, sense pressure, qb style).

Things have been pretty good, I’m 4-0 as the bears.

I do kinda feel like I’m getting a few too many picks (I don’t user catch), but it’s hard to judge considering the pressure I can make with Chicago DL.

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

Do you play multiple guys on the user line or the same 1??

I try to mix it up and always play someone different every play or every other play.

If you feel like you are still getting too much pressure and it's causing you to win to much because of ints, you can raise cpu pass block by 5. See if it helps

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

I was switching it up a little bit, doing it more now after your tip & seems to work better.

Online franchise my also make a difference. I started a new online franchise, way less interceptions from my team & the game seems faster. Maybe the speed is in my head but I definitely felt a difference.

QB edits for next gen may deserve another look as well. Just finished a game against Kyler Murray. He didn’t attempt a single QB rush. Multiple times he would roll out to an open field & instead picking up yards on the run he would throw the ball away. Lol

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

I wonder if that's an online exclusive thing too?? I'll test it in offline and see if he is the same way

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

I feel this has been a pretty decent set. First time it feels like I can actually stop the offense once in a while. The only thing at the moment that I feel could use a little tightening is user running. I feel the holes are pretty big to run through and makes it a bit too easy. Would run blocking have to go down in that event?

[schnaidt1]

Re: Schnaidt1's Madden 21 Next Gen Sliders

User run blocking is at 0... If you think user running is too easy, increase cpu tackling by 5
