So...Play Now sliders

since the patch will have CCM playing like the CPU does in Play Now...or at least that's what they are saying...

What sets are good for play now? Most of the sets are designed for CCM.

I had the same mentality as you. I played two games in Play Now with jarodd's sliders (red set) and they were simply amazing.

Lost 31-9 playing as Miami against Carolina

Won 30-20 playing as Baltimore against Atlanta

I'm playing a default all-pro as a base...will go from there I guess.

Jarrod has a complete set of Play Now sliders if you're not aware

If you wanna stick with all pro, I think Playmakers has play now sliders on the other forum

Yeah, I know about Jarrod's. Respect his work immensely, I'm not a big fan of 0-ing out Human sliders. 0 run block brings in pulling lineman who don't block their assignment, FB's who run right by a LB. that kind of stuff.

I was using PM's sliders in a CCM, may plug them into playnow and see how they work.

Re: So...Play Now sliders

what I've discovered so far:

No one's slider sets work all that well in play now. The game is just immensely different (in a good way) in play now.

Default all-pro is too easy.
Default all-madden is too hard...like ridiculously hard. Example: houston vs Baltimore. Ray Rice had 189 yards in the first quarter (8 carries). Tells me either I suck (possible) or there's a big CPU boost in ability (what I'm thinking). In 8 carries, he had 6 broken tackles..

Each slider set has their good parts, and their bad parts.

What I'm looking for is probably the same as others. I'm looking for great players to be great, good players to be good, bad players to be bad. I'm looking for challenging, but not impossible. By that I mean, I don't want to see pulling lineman pull, and not block that DE or OLB. In some sets, they pull, head up field, miss the OLB/DE, and just essentially block no one. Another example is the FB leading through the hole and runs by a LB. Those are things that just drive me nuts, and I instantly just quit the game because this isn't college. This is the NFL. These cats hit their assignment 99% of the time.

But at the same time, I don't want to see Aaron Rodgers throw the ball into triple coverage 2 times in a row. This is an elite QB, and I want him to play like one.

Maybe I'm asking too much out of a video game for that kind of flexibility.
