M13 KILLER SLIDERS FOR OFFLINE CCM... GUARANTEED CPU RUN GAME

I am beginning to notice this issue (BRKTL) in my Offline CCM as well. A little high for the user and more-so for the CPU.

I was hoping that it would be in now, but WR CTCH is being tweaked as I type.... Fixed CPU BRK TKL, without killing the balance of the slider set nor the final game stats and competitiveness of the CPU game vs. HUM...

Still working.... Hopefully, be end of Sunday night game on NBC.....


Thank you for the support and feedback and patience...

BETA SLIDERS, POST-PATCH, V.4


Skill Level: ALL-MADDEN

House rules:
(1) ASK MADDEN ONLY for both OFF & DEF play calling. This rule is a GAME CHANGER!!!!!!! However, you can switch to calling your own offensive plays at the 2 minute mark of each half. Defensive plays ARE ALWAYS called by ASK MADDEN or an audible, NO EXCEPTIONS.
(2) DO NOT USE the right analog stick when there is a run or pass play. In other words, do not use the right analog stick DOWN for a run play by the CPU as the play begins and vice versa, do not push UP with the right analog stick when there is a pass beginning to develop.
(3) On DEF, control ONLY one player, NO SWITCHING on run plays by the CPU. If the CPU call a pass play, you are allowed to switch, ONLY AFTER THE RECEIVER catches the ball (I control the FS, since my hand eye coordination is not that good to tackle as a LB).
(4) On OFFENSE, no hot routes.
(5) Consider having two controllers plugged in when you start your CCM game. Consider for your opponents playbook to switch it to BALANCED, or RUN HEAVY or PASS HEAVY, depending on the type of team you are playing if run / pass ratios have you tripping (I tend to leave it alone, because House Rule #1, addresses the play calling problem by the CPU, in my humble opinion).
(6) After starting your game, hit pause after the kickoff return is done and set your DEF audibles. Be smart on which ones you pick. Make sure you have at least a few that are balanced DEF calls. Make sure you have at least one for short yardage, long yardage, and a good defense against screens.
(7) Before you even start a CCM franchise, or before you re-start a pre-existing CCM franchise, set your OFFENSIVE audibles for your CCM franchise’s offense. Make sure you pick at least one screen, one draw, and two play actions for the two most common sets your offense runs (usually a one TE and two TE set), have one streak, and one zone flood pass.
(8) USE ONLY the right analog stick when attempting field goals, anything else, and you are a CHEESE.

Injury: 45 still testing … (if ya don’t like it, you can set this at 35 and fatigue at 65, but this is not realistic)

Fatigue: 55

Speed: NORMAL (SLOW has not been tested for this slider group)

Threshold: 65 (if the games are too close or low scoring for your palate, you can go to 45- 55, but this is not realistic in my humble opinion)

Holding 52
Face Mask 54
Clipping 54

Ladies:

V.4 is now posted. Enjoy.

If you follow the slider suggestions to the "T", you should have a rewarding SIM experience.

They are not DONE. Issues that I need feedback on, include:

(1) Drop percentage of balls (NOTE: This is is not how many balls you dropped, it is how many balls you dropped divided by targets to the WR). If you do not want to track this, then just provide feedback on drops.

(2) Total sacks by your defense by SEASONS end.

(3) Total number of interceptions thrown by your CCM quarterback by season's end.

(4) Total number of injuries by season's end if you leave the injury slider alone as recommended.

(5) Total number of strip sack fumbles for TD's by defense by season's end.

(6) Total number of lost fumbles by season's end.


Please try to play the slider set for a full season, unless there is just some ABSOLUTELY glaring glitch (ie, ridiculous sack numbers, high amount of ints, out of whack CPU rushing numbers, strip sack fumbles for TD constantly, fumbles by CPU RB, yada, yada, yada). Try not to stop your season just because you can't square up tackles so you are getting steam rolled or because you continue to lose close games. I am losing a lot of close games by a field goal and in overtime. I lose them due to a big hit causing a fumble, a bad pic six that I threw, cannot shut down the CPU running attack, or vice versa, the CPU passing attack.

If you notice there are NO MORE "0" sliders. I have found what I believe is a relationship between "0" sliders and GOOFY crap going on during the game... It's as if a "0" slider just makes the A.I. perform very funny. Soooo, all my "0" sliders are now 5 units.

Like always, if you are going to use them, you have to give the thread feedback. We appreciate thumbs up and thumbs down comments, but truly what we are looking for are observations, box scores, comments on the ebb and flow of the game in general, pace issues with the game speed, separation issues for long bombs, and any other observations that you may feel are pertinent to the thread and it's goal to reach the Holy Grail ...

I have not tried these sliders on SLOW speed. Not sure if I will. I seem to like the pace and the ebb and flow of the game at NORMAL speed at 65 SPEED THRESH.

Please note that if you DO NOT FOLLOW the HOUSE RULES, I will not vouch for their worthiness. The game plays a lot different when you are the play caller. If you like being the play caller on all plays, use the previous slider set, V.3, and lower CPU and HUM BRK TKL (HUM to 20 and CPU to 40)....There may be some other tweaks I would recommend to V.3, so if this is what floats your boat, drop the thread a post. Personally, I am going to exclusively use V.4 and follow it's HOUSE RULES.

In closing, thank you for the support and feedback and patience... I may take a break for a while and just sit back and chill, and listen to the criticism that is sure to come from the thread for this newest incarnation of the Gospel of Madden. Peace.

Hey Wiz. Was using your last beta set and was loving the results. If I played lazy I lost and I love that.

Just wondering how many games you've played with this new beta set and how your outcomes have been?

My brudda from annuda mudda... Welcome!

Have been futzing with these sliders since Friday... It took playing well over 32 complete games (got help from 3 good buds, paid them in beer), with tracking specific tasks, to reach these sliders. Once reached a set that I felt was a good comfort zone, played them personally, exactly as posted above.

So, I would say that I personally have played them probably 9+ complete games at the slider settings that just were posted.

Thank you for the support and feedback look forward to hearing your criticism in the weeks ahead..... Lates.

Pretty solid game all-around. Solved RB sub issue by manually subbing in my 2nd RB in the depth chart every 3 possessions or so (1st RB about 9 possessions, 2nd RB about 3 possessions). Way to many drops.

Nice work on the sliders man. I felt like I dominated this game in particular (my first game with this set) although the final score shows a tight ending.

I had 2 drops and CPU had 4.

CPU had 2 sacks on me, I had 1 on CPU. When the CPU sacked me 2 times, Roethlisberger fumbled both times.

CPU was on the 1 yard line 5+ times and couldn't make it in. Stingy, tough Steeler's D?

I really like these sliders and will continue to post box scores throughout my season. Thanks for the hard work you put in this weekend!
