This game does NOT feel as great as it did at launch.

For me its personally better than it was at launch after Mike's slider tweak haha.

Although at launch I was balling on All-Star to get a feel for some of the new stuff.

One thing that can never be replaced or replicated after launch is the fun and new novelty stuff. Once that stuff becomes "standard" things may start feeling a little duller.

I think people aren't used to teams changing up their strategy this year. I played one team and scored 44 points, then the very next team I played..they doubled me at the very start of the game.

I couldn't do anything that next game, and it was against a worse opponent.

Along with some slider adjustments, you probably getting the hang of tye game. Every year at launch, i have a hard time with the game. After i get familiar with it, and put some time in, it feels a little different and easier. Maybe you're experiencing something similar

OP, you are right on the money. Me and a couple of comrades noticed this switch as we were in the midst of playing for about 10 hours after launch between the 20 of us. What we noticed was how the movement seemed to change after those *slight* 2 updates. And it did not change for the better, so much player sliding and seemingly being controlled by the A.I. is insane. And this is on offense and defense. It's so bad, I'm about ready to shelve this game.

Pro-Am and Park are getting worse as people unlock OP badges. Just wait until you see the gold/HOF ankle breaker badge.
