No matter how AMAZING the gameplay and "sim" the game can get.. it will not be SIM for everyone.. everybody's skills at the game are different and the sliders help make the game as realistic as possible for each Madden gamer...

If i suck at running the ball, i can't find holes, i suck at timing my juke or spin move... and i run for 1.5 yds per carry every game.. i may say the game is TOO hard to run.. and i would need to adjust a slider to get it up above 3 or so YPC...

If i'm the bomb.com at running and i can use cedric benson and gain 150yds on the ground every game.. i can adjust the slider to make it more difficult to run to make the game more realistic... it's not just about making the player ratings play exactly like they should in real life..

It doesn't give MAGICAL effects... it simple makes it more realistic to YOUR STYLE of play and based on how good you actually are... We aren't all at the same skill level in every aspect of the game...

What Im saying is if you are poor at running the football pick a team that runs the ball well. I want to go to a poor rushing team like my Saints and struggle because my o-line run blocking stinks. If I wanna run the ball effectively I can play with the Vikes or the Skins. I just dont think its "sim" to take a team bad at doing something and making them good through sliders. Maybe Im just being insensitive to the guys who struggle in certain aspects of the game ,but those aspects should be impacted by the talent on the roster not sliders. IMO

I will say this though if the game is "sim" and leaving the sliders in the middle really is the off switch(yeah right) then sliders wont bother me one bit.

But the idea you can leave the sliders in the middle and expect anything remotely sim now is a joke!

So, your REAL problem isn't that the sliders exist BUT rather that the game with the sliders "OFF" (set in the middle) does create a SIM game from YOUR view.

That being said, Would you agree that everyone has different views?

The answer to that is obviously YES.

Therefore, everyone's view of SIM is slightly different let alone the people that do not want SIM.

That being said, How do you expect EA to make a game that appeals to everyone that is going to buy the game when they all have different views without allowing the person playing the game adjust to THEIR view?

That would be one hell of a game that can read people's mind and adjust accordingly. If they could do that they wouldn't be making a games and would be making a hell of a lot of more money then a game ever could.

If '09 had CPU sliders, I'd still be playing it.

I really don't understand why we can't get a yes or no answer to a ''feature'' that shouldn't have been taken out in the first place. If 2010 doesn't have CPU sliders, I won't even rent it.
