Yea 50.

Also just realized that I deleted the patch I think. I just hit delete on my whole m25 section on my 360 haha. So if that's the case I definitely can't start till I redownload it.

You can check the last dozen or so pages and see the stats I've been getting. The stats are realistic though. We've been harping on minute little details here and there but overall you will see realistic stats from yards, QBs, RBs, third down conversion rates, yards per carry and attempt passing, tackles have gotten to double digits for my best LB a couple of times. I think you'll find most stuff falls in line with the NFL avgs thanks to GJD keeping up with the stats.

Let us know how it goes for ya.

Haha damn. I realized I had the week 1 roster update in my CFM so if I start again I won't get it back unless I find the file somewhere online. And I really want to start with week 1 rosters.

So I'm going to change my sliders/settings to match the OP, load up the CFM and play a game in week 1. Hopefully it works

For anyone, the only issue is really the CPU QB decision making and play calling. There WILL be a handful of plays where the CPU keeps 8 guys in to block and sends 2 out in route for no apparent reason. Usually resulting in a coverage sack. Or you will see QBs tuck it too early or simply refuse to throw the ball out of bounds. They will do it correctly most of the time but there will be times you are left scratching your head. Try to go ahead and chalk it up to human error because there's just no way around some of Maddens programming.

I've tried every combo of IG, CPU accuracy, Human coverage, etc and all it does it ruin other aspects of the game while the problem still rears its ugly head. I think we've polished this turd as much as we can and until someone gives us a realistic experience right out of the box this is the best we can do.

We could tweak these for years and never emulate NFL football perfectly so I think a 90% success rate on realistic outcomes is pretty good. Compared to how the game plays on default these are night and day.

I'll be happy to answer questions about particular settings or whatever but as far as constant tweaking. I'm gonna have to put an end to it because the little OCD in me could do mess with these sliders until next august and then we start all over again haha.

So GJD&WTBBs sliders are officially final. Make whatever changes you see fit but this is as realistic and challenging a base set you will find and that's what we set out to accomplish. I went 11-5 with Eagles. Made tweaks to improve CPU run defense then went 2-2 with Falcons before settling.

Enjoy!

Luckily I'm not as a picky as rosters as am I about gameplay. I wont use the Falcons though because it makes me want to emulate real life too much.

Do you create a coach or just go with chip Kelly? I usually create a coach and try to turn around a team.

I was on Owner mode with Jeffery Lurie. Maybe that's why my games have been skewed?? Lol. But yeah if I was playing with a team I'd use their actual coaches/GM's. There's also a thing I use in the strategy section next to auto-subs, you can choose what kind of defense and offense you want, and how you want each position to play (Route-Runner WR, Speed WR, One-Cut RB etc).

If you scroll through you can see QB 1, HB 1, HB 2, WR 1, WR 2 so I go to my depth chart and find the players that are HB 1, HB 2, etc and click on their name. It'll come up with what kind of player they are. I then use that to adjust my scheme. I've got it all in notepad with my depth chart (updating as I go through a season) haha. Talk about OCD...

This is a copy-paste from the notepad file I have on my PC...it includes some links to draft guides set up by a member here. Can't remember his name now but the links are there. He's got a full breakdown of every draft that will pop up during your time in CFM. Pretty amazing, lol.

Oh yeah btw I'm playing against the Patriots again in the hope it works. Actually playing well so far. Got the Pats to 4th and 15 at the 45 and they decide to FAKE PUNT PASS. Sacked the QB and get the ball back. I do like the surprise calls though.

[wordtobigbird]

So you edit your schemes based on what your players already are to maximize them?

Honestly owner made *may* be the issue. I've heard the schemes for owner mode were fixed after the patch though. So I hope it isn't.

How'd the game end up?

Just turned my phone to a mobile hotspot and got the update haha. Going to get that roster I was using and check through each team and see what team I want to start a CFM with.

So now that I look closely, he lowered stamina for RBs to under 60 for almost all RBs so they rotate for CPU I guess. way too lazy to load back and forth and see all he did but that's one thing. going to ask in his thread for a more detailed breakdown.
