Good deal...great work. Now all that is left is for EA to drop the patch that will hopefully cure any exploits that remain. We're in business!

Then before i quit i kept playing and i noticed his decision making was very quick and the CPU ran a perfect screen play. Then as for the defense the safeties played poorly on defense, i can now complete deep passes in the middle of the field almost at will. Slots and TE dominate yet again. I believe the offense plays better with a high aggression than the defense. The slots and TE's were not being guarded at all in the middle of the field and was very exploitable. I apologize to anyone who thought my way was the correct way but indeed IT WAS FLAWED. The only issues i see now are a few dumb forced CPU passes, and the middle of the field being exploitable if used in such a manor. This is weird but i had my sliders plugged in during this test. Testing yours now so basically my opinion above is the 100% truthful opinion on my slider set. I reversed USC's and will post results.

this is the exact reason i use auto pass from your mouth to gods ears!

i dont wanna exploit! i dont want my coverage reading ability or lack of to make my qb play better or worse than his ratings, period! if he wants to force crappy throws all day, i will pull him or NOT call plays that have long passes... with auto pass, recruiting becomes important bc i can take a 68 ovr freshman and win 8-9 games.. just the same as a 85 ovr junior. ratings mean nothing when the user has control of this game.. i want sim football. these coach sliders are giving me that, and making player ratings paramount, the end all! its truly a great feeling to be in position to start a real dynasty before the actual season starts.. i do not fear the patch because personally, the way i play, and my personal sliders are patch proof, bc they are only a means of making the cpu players (mine and my oppnent) play to their full potential.

Defense with reversed sliders are better but not be that much. On four verts my RB(right bumper) man is ALWAYS open. This is on default with no slider tweaking but he is always behind the defense. Maybe every team at 50/50 or 60/60 is ideal? I don't know but i think that the deep ball problem is just in need of patching. Pass defense in general is pretty great. LB's pick up slants instead of playing behind them, and it seems they jump to the ball on thrown passes. Maybe with a different slider set the deep ball wont be as brutal since i am playing with 50 QB accuracy. Offensively however on my setting the CPU gets the check downs and the QB plays better, but i haven't tested the offensive side yet and will do so now.

You use Auto Passing...In coach mode? You don't control your decisions or make plays for yourself? This whole time it wasn't YOU being able to do these things but the A.I making key decisions for you?

what is your settings? im basically playing on default heisman, with some sliders maxed to help the cpu.. ive been having totally realistic games statistically and performance wise.
