Re: Lost when it comes to sliders

That is because sliders in this game are a cluster****. Some of them don't work. Some of them are inverse. Some of them do what they aren't supposed to do and have unintended consequences.

Re: Lost when it comes to sliders

i had small adjustments to my sliders up until this week. i finally put everything at default. i have my subs adjusted, my penalties adjusted, play on AA and not having the slider factor i think the game plays just flat better.

seems to be more animations, seems like players maybe play to their rating more. i don't know, something just feels right with the sliders at default across the board.

Re: Lost when it comes to sliders

I agree with Husker. The game plays great at default AA, although I lower the tackling slider to 20 in order to promote more broken/ missed tackles and also to lower the excess amount of big hits. The problem for me is that the safety glitch is ever present on AA and Heisman. I know some people don't mind it, but it happens too often for me to enjoy the game.

There is a nice varsity set made by FistofRage in the slider section. He has basically found a way to eliminate the safety glitch.

On my last note it is very true that the sliders have been ineffective or flat out broken in some cases over past few years. Go to practice mode and you will see that the QB Accuracy slider works as intended, but in a Play Now game the slider does not affect the accuracy of the throw at all. It has more of an effect on WR catching and animations.

Some sliders are flat out broken and EA needs to fix them. Same with last year. This is the most frustrating game I have ever played. Don't know why I play it. Guess cause I like college football. EA FIX THE SLIDERS!!!!!!!

It evens goes much deeper than this...There are too many gameplay issues to mention, but if the game played like a real college game out of the box and then we had working sliders that actually had visible effects we could all customiz e the game to our liking.

I will say this...Take QBA for example...It has really strange effects on the game, but if I put it at 0 or 100 the QB still throws the ball right on the receivers hands 99% of the time. The WR catch slider works, I can visibly see the effects. But unfortuunately, if 1 slider is broken, like the clipping slider or QBA slider, the integrity of the entire system has to be called into question.

Re: Lost when it comes to sliders

Why do I feel like if you went to the EA developers and played a game against them, they'd be confident they could fix every complaint you had, but once you played again, the problems would still be there.

I think they have a false sense of confidence about their product. Like they have built-in fixes, except that they don't fix anything.

You'd end up leaving out of boredom and frustration while he's assuring you he can fix it, to no avail.
