Madden 18 Q & A Thread

[jmarcguy]

How are option plays?? The reason I ask is because it always seemed the CPU knew what I was going to do. If I used Cam or Russell, the CPU always played the QB. If I used a QB not as known for running, I could let the QB keep it. Kind of kills using the option for mobile quarterbacks.

Question about legacy points. Is there a sweet spot for maximizing legacy points achieved based on quarter length, difficulty, and also possibly the clock runoff? I remember this being an issue in my Madden 15 CFM, because I was running longer quarters and my coach maxed out at like 6 or 7k legacy. I enjoy playing longer quarters, but I could always switch it up in the playoffs to maximize legacy points. Does anyone know if that works also? Just switch to the sweet spot during playoffs for maximize legacy points gained from winning playoff games, championship games, and SB's?

Also have another question concerning CFM stats. The last Madden I played was Madden 15 and a big issue with Online CFM were unrealistic statistics in the games that were simmed for the CPU. Low sack totals (capped at 4-8 usually for CPU controlled teams), no FG's over 50 yards for CPU controlled teams and every attempt over 50 yards was a miss, CPU never missed FG's under 50 yards for sims, abnormally high reception totals and low yards per reception due to the high reception totals, abnormally high tackling numbers for safeties (probably due to the high reception totals), high passing TD's for CPU controlled QB's (multiple teams above 40 every season usually). I'm hoping to get more realistic stats from the CPU controlled teams this season.

Also has anyone been able to get Gold on the Pre-Play - Defensive Adjustments drill yet? Best I can manage is Silver because when you have to call Hook Zone for the LB or Flat Zone for the CB no matter what option I select it isn't the correct one. Always fail at least 2 when 9/10 needed for Gold.

I know Gold isn't necessary, but kind of bugging me that that is the only drill I don't have Gold in.

Also is there any point to the Gaunlet? Rewards?

Is there a way to (always) kick a PAT in an Offense Only Game. I'm not sure why a PAT is not an offensive move for the game but going back to "play all moves" then switch back to "play all offense" is annoying. and the CPU is to dumb to do it. If a PAT fails I want it to be my fault.

Does this then have teams moving all over the place in CFM? That is my fear with clicking "allow all"......

You should be able to activate it for 1 week and then deactivate it again. So the chance of a relocation is quite slim.

Excellent, thank you.
