Sliders don't work???

[DLaren]

They work on my end...

I watched a game on All-Madden and neither team could get the run-game going, so I raised the CPU's run-blocking slider to 75 at halftime and both teams were able to run the ball in the 2nd-half.

I also watched a second game with the slider still at 75 and the holes were wide-open all game...the slider change was so effective I might have to scale it back a bit.

...so yea, the sliders are working.

They work. I have played over 30CFM games and have been tinkering throughout.

I was looking forward to 18 but may just go back to 17... I even put the sliders I had for 17 into 18 and can't do nothing oline can't run block or pass protect.

you should not have to make drastic changes like that, you should be dropping down in difficulty instead.

I started on all-pro....I dropped to pro and still saw same results the cmp could run and pass all over me but yet I couldn't get run game or passing going and pass rush was non factor on my side they had all day to pass.

In previous versions if I adjusted them...I could at least have competive games this yr looks like I'm a pee wee team trying play against nfl team.

I can 100% tell you some of the ones I've been working with make a difference. I'll let others argue about whether they make a difference *how* they want it to, but absolutely they matter.

I just posted this in the impressions thread... But they definitely work!

As 2 recent posts have stated with penalty sliders and upping man coverage to 52 it seems EA spread the sliders out this year which is great! Small adjustments you can see a big difference. Although some still need bigger tweaks from testing like CPU accuracy... But still welcome addition spreading them out... I put man coverage and reaction at 55 and was like whoa on a few passes where M. Butler broke on a comeback route and almost picked it. 53-52 seemed like a sweet spot for realistic coverage in limited time for me... But big difference from 50-53.

Guess imma have to keep testing then because with some set low the cmp shouldn't be able to hit broad side of barn let along catch every pass etc.

Testing a game now I'm up 14-7 against ravens in play now game.
