I hope so, I haven't bought the game yet and I won't do it until they fix it. If they don't (as I believe) see you in Madden 23.

Re: Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

EA hadn’t acknowledged it but people with the company have said they ARE aware and they know of a possible fix but they just haven’t done it.

Re: Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

I asked Swami on Twitter if there was any chance for a fix and he replied: “Yeah they just need to figure out why it only applies to offline”.

Hopefully soon.

Re: Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

Is this an issue only with user team’s stats, and what’s the issue exactly?

Re: Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

I mentioned this in the survey they sent out yesterday. Who knows if they read that stuff lol. They ignore most of the beta feedback so they probably ignore that too but worth a try.

You can pretty much control everything but the draft and coaches online (by retiring and creating new characters, then going back before advancing). Might as well make the jump for now. You can’t undo things by restarting, but you can remove cap penalties, make trades, whatever (for example, if you want a great player on another team, switch to the team with the player and trade him with a swap of 7th round picks, then go back).

Its with all teams. Passing yards are way too low compared to the real NFL.

The game does not record longest passes above 25 yards. And average yards per pass attempt is over 1 yard per attempt too low (I spent some time crunching the numbers by adding up all the QB stats). Which would be fine if this was a recreation of the 1970s, but is way too low for the modern era NFL.

The result is that even with a 17 week season no QB gets close to 5,000 yards passing.

Other stats are wrong as well - FG attempts are too low, punting averages too high, fumbles lost is catastrophically too low. Rushing TD's are too high, and rush average is overall too low (although elite HB's are generally about right).

But those listed above have been a problem for years. It's the passing yards that's the new killer problem in Madden 22.

And one thing I will keep repeating in my posts on this on the odd chance that someone from EA might actually pick up on this.....Sabo fixed the majority of these Sim Stat issues 2 years ago via Frosty for his PC mod on Madden 20- I helped him. It was just a case of altering SuperSim values via Frosty. It wasn't always straightforward, but if a mod maker can do it then so can EA.

Man that 25 yard bug is a real franchise mode killer. So my QB has no competition in statistical output. Makes it not even worth playing.

Re: Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

This is so frustrating. What about using Supersim for the cpu games? For example, let’s say I do a full 32 team user control offline franchise. I know it’s very cumbersome but could I go into each game and then just supersim it all for realistic stats ? This is time consuming but a possible workaround.

Cmon EA! You have lots of loyal customers who would actually like to play and enjoy the game. Wake up!

Re: Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

Really wanted to stay in offline but after getting 75% through my first season my QB (Matt Ryan) was over 1K yards more than the next, so I started from scratch, keeping my record the same by forcing wins. Fingers crossed I don't have to mess with CPU draft AI

I hear that! That is what is bugging me so much. I would be cool with starting an online chise now but problem is the game will be ruined in year 2 when the jags and jags draft another qb. This is all such an easy fix for EA. Pure laziness. They have no competition so they don’t care. That simple

The answer is no. That doesn’t work.
They need to patch this.

Thank you for the answer. And I am sure AI Draft logic is still flawed and in year 2 the Jags and Jets draft QB’s again. So yeah, franchise is ruined for online and offline. Thanks a lot EA. It’s only week 7 of the season. Such a lack of respect for the offline franchise players it’s insane. What a sad mess. I have zero confidence any of this will be patched

Re: Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

What really sucks a out this is the fact that the game has been out for two months now and it's still not fixed. But they added in college legends mode or whatever that BS was called. And this scouting update is so super rudimentary that it's quite laughable.
