    the blog, it said to counter the Setup Play, you could do the Play Pass strategy. So, it sounds like you won't get beat because playing the pass makes your corners/safeties not bite on playaction.

        up to 90% (or 100%). it is 3rd and 2 and i know that they are
        going to run that play. So i choose on my defense key to
        play pass. Will my team be beat by the PA pass anyway or
        will my defense stay home???
        When they first talked about this feature they said this wouldnt be the case

          I am pretty sure that they said just because the set up play is high (close to 100%) does not mean that the play is guaranteed to be successful.

            Ok so back to my original question. Doesnt that make the % thing pointless? If 100% doesnt guarentee anything then whats the point?

              I don't think it makes it pointless. You're not going to have your team play pass every play. For example, if it's 3rd and 1 and they've been running it basically all game, you're most likely not going to call for your defense to play the pass, therefore, if they run a PA Setup play, then there's a good chance for it to be successful. And like Cvhsalumni said, even if it is 100% it doesn't mean the play will be successful because if you're throwing towards a start CB, he won't necessarily bite on it, there's just a "higher" possibility.

                No... How is anyone going to KNOW exactly when you will run a set up play? Just because it's at 100% doesn't mean you have to run it... Plus, it makes user vs cpu better because it actually gives the cpu somewhat of a brain.

                    I meant user vs. user. Dont get me wrong I love the idea of gameplanning but I dont like the fact they show you the % number.

                      I agree with the % number on the setup play. But then again, at least we'll know it's working when we see the % go up.

                          First off, the gameplan strategy for the defensive side of the ball is a GREAT ADDITION and nicely implemented! Good job there. But I'm not impressed with the gameplan strategy on the offensive side of the ball. It sounded good until I watched the video. Why should I pick "break a long run?" for a strategy...wouldn't I sub in a back who I think is capable of breaking a long run? Why do I need a percentage number telling me when the playaction pass will work? I should figure that out on my own. Linking plays and hinting when they might work is dummying down the game to me, so how is that strategy. I can go on & on but I think yall get my point whether you agree or disagree. When I'm on offense playing human or cpu opponents, I have my own strategy and style of play already. Its on me whether my style is effective or not.

                          On the other end, I love the gameplan strategy for defense because that's excatly what teams do in real life....they make adjustments to the gameplan during the game when they need to.

                            Gameplay looks good. But still ain't sold on SS. SS is just not my kind of thing I like to fool with.

                              will we be able to use this outside of season showdown like in a dynasty or is season showdown the only mode that it will be used in?

                                well, Season Showdown is not exactly a mode. you can earn credits in any game mode(dynasty, play now, etc.)

                                but yes, the Gameplanning, Defensive Keys, and Set-up plays are still there if you never sign-up for Season Showdown.
