Hmm, I thought they said you lost some XP or packages or something. I must have misread (or, perhaps, remembered older and wrong info). That's good news then...makes for a more viable workaround for one of the issues. Thanks.

Thank goodness! I was scrolling through everyone's post hoping someone else noticed this as well!

The Rams look exciting to rebuild with those extra first round picks they received from Washington.

As I was reading through CCM's draft section this question came to mind. Does anyone know what will happen if you draft a 4-3 pass rushing DE and your team plays a 3-4?

Will the player's ratings decrease?

Yes it will. Only the ratings will see a change. I doubt we see any change in Gameplay until OL/DL interaction is fixed.

well at the last CD Shopmaster said in his CCM Diary that he changed coaches and then went back to his original coach and he still had the exact amount of xp that he left him with. let me find the link.


edit: here is the page where he talked about changing coaches and back http://mymaddenpad.com/2012/06/21/de...s-day-2-diary/. he does mention that some of his tasks were finished for him when he switched back.

This is good to hear. So I now I can play multiple teams in week 1 if I want to.

He will take an OVR hit on your team because his skills for the DE position is not what your team values. (Go read page 25 of the manual).

IRL, this happens but teams switch the pass rushing DE to OLB, like what Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis are doing this season. Unfortunately, we wont be able to do that this year since we cannot edit players' positions.

One of the things I've been clamoring for a few years is a hybrid DE/OLB category for these players so they default into whatever position the scheme calls for. That way, if the Colts switch back to a 4-3, Freeney and Mathis would automatically switch back to DE. Also, the pass rushing DE you draft would switch to OLB if you run a 3-4.

production rating on rookies will enter with a production rating of 0. Josh was saying in a video how it would be based on how they did in college. confused.
