AFL Slider Sets

[jhamlin1971]

Just wondering if anyone has sliders ready for this game. Slider selection seems similar to Madden as far as percentages to set them and stuff. I am working on a set, but I am new to Arena Football and not sure of realistic stats. Gonna watch my first game tonight, LOL! All in all, I think its a great change of pace for football, reminds me of Cyberball (the one with the robots) from back in the 80's arcades!

Yeah, I'd like to see a slider set as well for the ALL-AFL difficulty. You said how it was similiar to Madden, I'm kind of experimenting with Playmakers All-Madden sliders to see how they pan out. Being an EA Sports game, I'm sure the AI has to be similiar to that of Madden.

I agree, probably the same AI just tweaked a little for the different rules/field layout. I have managed to create a slider set. This is my first time every trying to create one from scratch so I welcome comments/suggestions to make it better. Again, I am not very familar with 'normal' stats for Arena football but the couple games I have played so far seem to be on par. Heres what I got:

5 minute quarters
All-pro
Injury on
Fatigue on
Sub out 65%
Sub in 80%
Vibration on
Formation assist on

Penalties maxed
Except Roughing the passer and Unecessary roughness at 80%

Offense (Human/CPU)
QB Accuracy 14/15
Pass Block 10/20
WR Catch 14/15
FB 10/10
Run Blocking 17/17 (still makes running tough, I had CPU break one for 34yds)

Defense (Human/CPU)
Awareness 5/12
Knockdowns 7/10
INTs 4/10
Break Block 4/8
Tackle 2/8

Special Teams (Human/CPU)
FG Length 10/10
FG Accuracy 10/2 (CPU still makes FG's and I seem to miss more)
Kickoff Length 10/10

Here are some stats from one game with the Georgia Force and user created team Jacksonville Sea Monkeys using the sliders above:

Georgia Force/Jacksonville Sea Monkeys
Score 40/48
Total Offense 229/222
Rushing Yards 54/8 (they broke one on me once)
Passing Yards 175/214
1st Downs 6/5
Kickreturn yds 86/42
Total yards 315/264
Giveaways 3/1
Takeaways 1/3
3rd conversion 1-6(16%)/3-7(42%)
4th conversion 2-4(50%)/0-0
2 point conversion 0-1/0-0
Penalities 0/5
Penalty yds 0/19
Time 9:21/10:39

Seems balanced to me so far, could use a little more tweaking in the running dept though. I am watching my first real game tonight so I will see how these stats compare to the real thing. Let me know what you think!
