When I first started reading about the patch and you guys were saying it balanced out the passing game and improved the run game and stuff like that, I thought you were imagining things. None of the devs ever said they were going to fix or adjust any of that. But now that I have the patch and have played a couple games, it does feel like they adjusted something. My initial theory is that they changed the sliders. I will explain why.
Pre-patch, I had QB Accuracy and WR Catching turned down to 1 in the sliders, as well as deflections and INTs turned up to like 68. And pre-patch, QBs were still getting QB ratings of over 100 each and every game, and there were hardly ever any interceptions. My first game post-patch with those same sliders, the stats at the end of the first half had my QB's rating at like 33 and my opponent's at 0, which NEVER used to happen. I put them back to 50, and passing started to work. My second game post-patch, with the sliders at 50, both QB's had ratings in the 100s again (although I was playing against Peyton Manning so that might be normal).
I will need to test this more, but my initial theory is that they've jacked up the effect of the sliders significantly. Of course it's also possible that they've just fixed the gameplay, period. Either way, I am a happy guy and way more excited about this game.
Thank you soooo much for all the hard work, guys! Whatever game you make next, you let me know and I will buy it.

I'm glad I'm not alone in noticing this. It really seems like they snuck something in, or fixed something that fixed something wrong they didn't know about, or something, because I noticed a MASSIVE difference in my first game since the patch.
It was part of my slider testing thread... just, all of the sudden, I'm seeing horrid passes and tons of pressure on the QB. It threw me for a loop so bad I decided to not even comment on it, just wait for a few more games to see if it continues. It's really weird, if they didn't fix something deliberately, something they did fix must have been hurting another area of the game they didn't know about.
