Most realisitic sliders I've been able to come up with

[jdw89]

Played 2nd game versus the Cowboys, this one was way closer and went down to the last few minutes, not only that but I was down 38-17 at one point but scored 31 2nd half points to win the game 45-38. I change my difficulty setting to All Madden, had it on All Pro for the last game, it made it a lot more difficult, for example Alex Smith only had a 74.6 rating going 21/34 for 212 and 2 TD 2 INTS, Charles had 24 carries for 130 yards and 2 TDS not only that but he also returned 2 kickoffs for TDS as well, back to back even! Romo was 28/41 for 278 yards 2 TDS 1 INT, Lance Dunbar had 18 carries for 94 yards and 3 TDs Murray had 8 carries for 52 yards before getting injured. They had more offensive yards at 429 to my 347, we each had 2 turnovers, they had the ball 36 minutes and I only had it for 24 minutes. They also had 23 first downs and I only had 20. Pretty good game, only thing was that there was a lot of scoring which probably wouldn't of happened in real life.

Those kickoff returns for TDs will definitely help inflate that score though. I always go back through and look to see how many times I scored on offense. My return game has been pretty nice also. Not sure if I know how to tone that down

Cowboys @ Chiefs (me)

Results: There was some HUMONGOUS plays in this game so the stats are pretty crazy. Ended up going to overtime again and I lost 38-41. This time Cowboys won the toss. Went down, made a stop inside the 15 and they kicked a FG. I failed on a 4th down near midfield to end it.
These stats might be alarming. There was so many big pass plays I lost count. However, the score didn't get too out of hand which was surprising. Thought there might be 100 combined points in the end at one point.

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / OT -- FINAL
Cowboys (cpu)-- 7 / 14 / 7 / 10 / 3 -- 41
Chiefs (me)-- 10 / 14 / 0 / 14 / 0 -- 38
There was three TDs scored in the final 2 minutes of the first half. I didn't think it was ever going to get to halftime lol.
1. Smith pass to McCluster 22yard TD -- 1:55
2. Romo pass to Coale 14yard TD -- 1:02
3. Smith pass to Bowe 80yard TD -- 0:51
Had some huge plays in the final 2 minutes of the first half not happened, it would've been a great defensive game.

This was a crazy game. I thought the score was going to end up in the 50s. Crazy big plays, yet the score didn't get out of hand somehow. Kind of nice, guess the sliders are doing something right. Gonna do another test game though because this seemed to be a fluke game with some crazy action. Great D at times and other times there was some head scratching tackling and guys getting shook so hard I think I saw some shoes come off, especially on that 80 yarder where I made Carr look flat out silly with two jukes.

What kind of effect does the penalty sliders have on gameplay?? I'm having trouble figuring out which penalty slider to adjust to effect the run game..

[jdw89]

I am going to play thru another game and use your penalty sliders this time, I'll post my results.

[PensFan813]

so interesting sliders so far, i need to up QB accuracy for me cause i'm throwing INTS straight to there guys when my guy is open i suck at lead passing

[KayOtic723]

hey how are you throwing with qb acc at 5 i usually cant get the ball near my targets (using EJ Manuel) but i like the fact i see over throws and under throws but sometimes wide open easy pass are 5 yrds of targets so what i am asking how do you pass do you not use the stick to lead receive or not and later i am going to try your sliders with 4 test different

hum acc at 7
speed thresh 100(helps the run D and pass D everyone is tighter together but you can still tell the fast between the slow)
hum/cpu rec 100
hum/cpu coverage 0
Int Grounding 75
(I know in NCAA 14 Roughing the passers helped quarterbacks avoid sacks by either taking off or throwing the ball away I think the pressure is fine but quarterbacks are holding on to the ball for 8-10 seconds everyplay allowing sacks)

Also I think using game flow to call plays really helps the game never tried it intill using your sliders also makes me feel like a coach i will start setting up my gameplan for the weeks team ahead gives me that NFL coach feel

They effect the amount of animations that they will trigger, like holding or facemasks. I have these at 1 but still got called for a facemask last night so they still happen, just not every single play, or every single tackle which is nice. It helps not having crappy linemen play like they are some kind of All-Pro with holding also.Some effect the amount of hustle guys have, like WR coming back to the ball, DBs attacking the line of scrimmage on run plays, how quickly the d-line fires off the snap, etc.
