Saying sliders are just a bandaid is not fair to say and simply silly... just about every game we have ever played needed slider adjustments since the beginning of the slider invention for videogames. Seriously..i play NFL,NCAA Football, NHL,NBA,Boxing games,etc and yup, i had to adjust sliders to be satisfied, just about everyone thats pretty hardcore touch the sliders every rip..and that PROVES no game comes out of the box perfectly fitting for a hardcore gamer..its not rocket science here pal

No offense, but you don't know what you are talking about. Just because you may have encountered cheesers online doesn't mean the majority are. There are 1000s of guys who play straight sim online. They just care more about playing the actual chess match and playing football than they do about setting hot dog prices and having the correct shoe laces for my defensive back.

I'd be fine with being able to adjust sliders... Oh wait!!! There are no sliders for online franchise or online games!!!!

It really stinks not having Online Franchise sliders cause I would love for the cpu to be able to run the ball. Its my biggest gripe about madden. Im in a 8 man Online Franchise with my buddies and they wanna keep it to All Pro due to the passing game being a little to tough for some. So I am stuck with the cpu not being able to run..........

If the sliders were in I could just simply raise the cpu's running game. And both parties would be happy.

The defensive playcalling news, is kind of deflating. It's one of those things, that once you know about you see it every time. I sincerely hope against hope this is fixed, or at least fixable, because I'm one of those guys that it will drive crazy.
