CCM Player XP gains chart

[mikesuszek]

I created a CCM some time ago (at first just to mirror my online league team), in which I simulated every game but played every weekly practice. I tracked the XP gained for my coach and eight players of different positions.

My goal was to find out how much XP players gain from practices (a flat amount for every player regardless of their spot on the depth chart). I put together a Google spreadsheet for those that would like to check out the data behind it. To keep things simple, I'll paste the results below.

Practice / Difficulty / Coach XP gained / Player XP gained
3rd Quarter Tie / Easy / 1500 / 1000
10 Point Lead / Easy / 1250 / 500
Easy Win / Easy / 1800 / 1500
Cake Walk / Easy / 1100 / 400
Offense / Normal / 1500 / 1200
Defense / Normal / 1500 / 1200
The Grind / Normal / 1300 / 800
Halftime / Normal / 1400 / 800
Hold the Lead / Normal / 1000 / 200
3rd Quarter Rally / Hard / 1500 / 1000
No Mistakes / Hard / 1000 / 200
Uphill Battle / Hard / 1300 / 800
Close Call / Hard / 1150 / 500
Comeback King / Hard / 1300 / 850
The Trench / Hard / 1000 / 100
2 Minute Drill / Hard / 1200 / 800
Final Stand / Normal / 1100 / 750
Ain't Over Yet / Hard / 1750 / 1200
End Zone Protection / Hard / 1000 / 100
Clutch / Very Hard / 1800 / 1200
RedZone / Very Hard / 1200 / 600
Hopeless / Very Hard / 1800 / 1200
Tough Road / Hard / 1900 / 1300
Bad Start / Hard / 2000 / 1400
Circle the Wagons / Very Hard / 2000 / 1500

Thanks Mike, this is great stuff!

Perfect, thank you very much. It is hard to understand the logic.

Re: CCM Player XP gains chart

do all on the roster get the xps or just those on the pitch?

Re: CCM Player XP gains chart

Every player on the roster gains XP. They don't have to touch the field at all.

It's worth noting that some players gain XP from games while never playing as well, though that primarily applies to positions like offensive linemen when they meet weekly goals by crossing a certain threshold in rushing or passing yards and such.

In my opinion, the players that have the toughest time gaining XP are CBs. Very feast or famine. They'll do great if they haul in a ton of INTs, but beyond that, it's more difficult to progress them. Just my opinion.

Re: CCM Player XP gains chart

I appreciate the chart sir. I believe I'll stick with Easy Win from here on out. Max player XP + it's easy. The 200 coach XP isn't worth it to try the Circle the Wagons practice.

Re: CCM Player XP gains chart

Turn WR Catch to 100 and do 2 minute drill every week. At least 16,000XP each season for backups seems about realistic.

Do you know of what players get for XP in games. Like for each completion, tackle, interception, etc. I know they get XP from more than just goals.

Right, I was just about to say this....if you do the practice for 17 weeks, you can get a minimum of 25,000 XP just for players that don't even touch the field

EA might want to think about changing the logic on this going forward though...you would think the harder scenarios would yield the higher XP, easiest the lower XP

Thanks for this info OP

Well, I'm not touching that slider for my online league. It would make my trade to put Julio Jones and Andre Johnson on the same team pointless.

I don't know that, though. That should be the next thing I investigate. As far as I can tell, players get a measily 10 XP for every tackle, so it's all about meeting those weekly goals and making big plays.

I meant turn it to 100 during practice.

Re: CCM Player XP gains chart

Do you get XP for performance in practice? Or is it simply whether or not you complete the task. Just wondering because that would seem like a good time to work with the young guys.

Re: CCM Player XP gains chart

The CPU teams do not practice, correct?

I m assuming they do not as they progress so slowly.

[mikesuszek]

Re: CCM Player XP gains chart

I don't believe the CPU practices. I've gone through multiple seasons and looked at CPU teams, and I don't get the sense that some players really progress.

As for practice performance, no, players don't get any additional XP for their stats in a practice. It's a flat amount of XP for every player on your roster when completing a practice.
