    - Fixed an issue with toss/sweep plays when game speed was set to Slow

    I have run 3 different toss plays from separate formations on "SLOW" gamespeed and did not experience the hitch that slows down the HB.

      Not sure if this was a coincidence:

      In less than 5 minutes of gameplay:
      2 false starts (setting 55)
      1 offsides (setting 70)
      1 defense facemask (setting 29)

        Hopefully the hiccup in the fast speed was fixed for this as well.

          Has anybody started a new franchise to see if IR was fixed? Just curious...sitting at my desk job itching to get off to check out the update but interested in any changes that weren't listed in the OP.

            Anyone know if the patch will affect existing CFMs with a draft class already imported or does it take affect on the classes your following year?

                I don't know about online, but an offline franchise, you can put someone on IR, but it DOES NOT free up a roster spot. Making IR rather useless.

                    Most likely coincedence, I haven't seen another penalty for 3 straight quarters.

                      Downloaded the patch, did a bunch of offseason things in year two of CFM, then it froze on me. All that work for nothing! Thanks for the stability fix EA.

                            I have noticed the truck stick not being as quite effective as it was which is no big deal. One of the glaring issues on offense was the "Catch in traffic" attribute and its lack on translation to on field play. I use the Saints and Jimmy Graham as well as Colston have 99 Catch in traffics 97+ Spectacular Catch and normal Catch. I'm still seeing the same issues where these guys catch a ball in mid air and drop it once being touched by a defender at the same rate as guys with much lower attributes.

                            The easiest way to test this is by calling a fade route and lobbing the ball up. Three time's in a row to J.G., all three times he made the catch only to have the ball dropped once a defender made contact.

                            I am not noticing any increases in penalty calls as some have noted and overall not really noticing much of a difference. I still can't believe they have not addressed the CPU QB stats for franchise, the numbers are ridiculously low for TD's and extremely high for Int's.

                              The other thread was closed and this is a new one .

                              Worst part about this patch is that its not a something that makes you go "wow, they fixed such important things, cant wait to get into new CFM" but you still need to start a new one ... i guess its not big of a deal for 1 team CFM Players, but for me , i play only 32 team control, i do preseason cuts and reorder depth charts to match real life in the offseason for all teams,which sadly takes 3-4hours.Ill post some impressions as soon as i start one. (Hope trucking was really toned down more than a bit,because i had Running backs with 60 trucking rating running over my team really often.
