Press coverage however is still an eye sore, WRs still beat the press 99% of the time it seems. Shading inside or out is not very effective either like it should be like it is in real life. The sound in the game is bad though, I even lowered the crowd, stadium speakers and announcers down to 60 and maxed out on the field. Still sound like it was on default. So sound definitely need to be fixed. I had this one cool play where the CPU ran a WR reverse and my safety picked up the short skinny WR and did a spine buster type of tackle on him. I watched that replay so many times thinking how is this not a flag for unnecessary roughness LOL. Like he literally jumped in the air with the guy and drove him into the ground. I also had an instance where I threw to my big TE over the middle, he caught it between 2 safeties and a DB. I stiff armed the smaller DB down to the ground and the safety tried to hit me but missed and hit the other safety, letting me get a 45 yard TD. I thought it was realistically cool play. Especially considering the TE was running like a big person.

Agree. Something about the sound is off. I also think the game runs a bit choppy. That and lack of penalties is the only real thing I noticed. Game plays great. I bet you the day 1 patch cleans some stuff up but so far M24, for me, on the field plays really good.

I think the best we can do on Series X is set 120 fps in console settings and turn VRR off. Maybe setting the graphics setting in-game to Performance and see if that helps.

Only gripe I have at the moment is trying to get used to playing on a PC laptop lol. All 22 camera is my normal camera I play on, but it’s always been on a huge tv. All 22 camera on a small laptop is NOT good let me tell ya, players are SUPER tiny lol.

In general should VRR be on or off? Which is better for framerate? thx

Just played a preseason game 4th quarter ended 24-24 and the game ended. No overtime in preseason. Not sure if that is new or not because I don't think I have ever had that scenario happen but pretty cool.

Anybody else a victim of downloading the XB1/PS4 version instead of current gen...? Took me half a game to realize I downloaded the wrong one lol

Just finished about 30 minutes of practice reps, PS5/All Pro. At a glance, game way more tightened down than beta. Less broken tackles, effective stiff arms, and it feels less loose in the open field running/receiving. AI defense is much more swarming than beta. I have completed some nice corner of the endzone passes with advanced passing, and have completed less than expected short/medium routes.

Just got home for lunch. I'm watching the Raiders v Cowboys, and on the first drive of the game Dak Prescott got hurt scrambling.
