Re: Breaking down OL/DL ratings

The OL (appear) to always know who to block. There are no/few "mental" mistakes in the run game. This was also the case last year. When they fixed the blocking logic in '11 (A huge upgrade), it...

Re: Breaking down OL/DL ratings

I can say with complete confidence that RBS definately effects movement. Manipulating RBS even produced a relatively unique animation.

The interplay between Power/Finnesse moves and footwork...

Re: Breaking down OL/DL ratings

I did not work the pass block attributes yet. I like to run the ball, so I started with those.

The idea that footwork effects the pulling guard would be logical, I'll set something up later and...

Re: Breaking down OL/DL ratings

General notes:

Strength, including the strength ratings and RBS, are far and away the most important. They even trigger a few new animations when there is a differential between the blocker and...

Re: Breaking down OL/DL ratings

As a whole, Stretch averaged 5.3 yards and was the least effected by ratings adjustments.

Dive averaged 5.4 yards and was the most sensitive.

Power averaged 5.1.

All gains over 10 yards...

Breaking down OL/DL ratings

Breaking down the OL/DL Ratings

I posted the question a few weeks ago asking what the OL/DL ratings meant. Since that went nowhere, I decided to just do the research myself.

I set it up as...

Re: PLEASE don't patch the gameplay, EA....

I haven't seen any real issues with deep ball. If you are having trouble with the CPU deep ball, I would suggest dropping CPU Throw accuracy.

I'm also in the concerned group if they patch...

Re: Early release strategy July 2011

Tried to scam the same gamestop as last year in NW Ohio. Told them the BG store broke release date, hoping to cause a panic and get them to sell again. No dice.

Re: How to save the single player experience

Again, my issue isn't always the raw number of blitzes. It's the type of blitzes (too many DBs, too many 7/8 man, not enough overloads). I want the CPU to blitz off the edge with #s, not send a MLB...

Re: NCAA 12 Retail Questions & Answers (NO DISCUSSION)

Can you assign custom playbooks to CPU teams? Offense and Defense?

Re: How to save the single player experience

Are these going to be assignable to the CPU? If so, that is outstanding. Major community project will be assumed.



I actually had the CPU hit a couple on me after posting that (on Heisman)...

Re: How to save the single player experience

Another addition to the list.

Remove the HB screen from the CPU's playcalling. They rarely/never execute it, and usually it just turns into a sack. The screen requires a bit of finesse to pull...

Re: How to save the single player experience

To be fair, nothing I wrote hasn't been said before. The squeaky wheel gets the oil, but there's not telling how long you need to squeak first.

Re: How to save the single player experience

The reviews on that are mixed, but I think it does help a little. However, while it lowers the total number of blitzes, the blitzes they pick are still silly. Instead of a good overload, fire zone or...

How to save the single player experience

These are issues that have plagued NCAA (and Madden) for several years, including the demo this year. They are easy, tuneable tweaks that have to be made.

-1) Stop the AI blitz. This is easily...

Re: The solution to the ratings is more ratings?

That already exists for most positions....just look at the ratings.

High RBK ratings and Low PBK already exists for lineman.

Some RBs have better receiving, blocking, trucking and agility...

Re: What makes a Packer different than a Rocket?

Step One

So we've talked about the stance, triple extension and leverage. Now we need to talk about movement. And, of course, all movement starts with 1 step.

One of the biggest differences...

Re: Plays to Add to Madden

Those plays are already in. The first is mesh (a variation)
double out is stick
the last one is shake in the game.

The third play is interesting. That looks like a RnS concept. Probably in ncaa
