Re: How many min quarters since patch #2?

I went from 8 min quarters prepatch to 10 min now. Both teams combined usually average 115-125 plays with realistic stats (except QB completion %).

Re: How many min quarters since patch #2?

I don't like playing more than 5 min quarters because it takes to long otherwise. But after the patch I have trouble getting more than 150 passing yards or 75 rushing yards. Sucks, cause none of my guys are in the top 20ish or so for any stat, which I'm sure will hurt their progression and chances to make the probowl.

it changes but not drastically. I also play 15 and with long drives and longer quarters without as many breaks (2 minute warning, end of quarters) you get your backups in a lot more.

Re: How many min quarters since patch #2?

i think 12min quarters are almost perfect if you don't super sim at all and you let the play clock run down to at least 10 secs when your on offense.

7 minutes, if you are not concerned with getting a perfect number of plays or certain yardage goals. Actually 7 minutes is not set in stone, it depends on my mood and time. My average per quarter is usually 6 minutes.

No gameplay changes....just higher numbers / stats.

Same here, except the part about QB completion percentage, I can hold the CPU to a realistic percentage myself.

I went from 10 to 12...I can't get to the 60 play mark w/o adding that extra two minutes.
