Operation Sports Forums - View Single Post - Breaking Down Sliders... How They Really Work

OrangeBlood · 08-27-2009, 12:05 AM

I did a full game test with the sliders I posted earlier in the thread that are a hybrid of bill's second "set" of sliders and some tweaks of my own.

First off I will say I need to do more in game testing/tweaking with these sliders but the thing that stands out is the number of turnovers, 7 by Washington and 5 by me (Baltimore).

Now I will say 2 of the interceptions on my side were completely my fault. One was a ball where it just went sailing off target by 10+ yards, the other was one where I was hit.

For the CPU I don't know if it was because of the pressure or because the defenders are reacting to fast for the computer. This is where more testing is needed.

One thing that I do need to do is to lower the fumble slider, there were 3 fumbles in the game (2 by the CPU, 1 by me).

Other than the turnovers things looked really good.

Here are the stats:

Code:

Washington	7	7	0	0	14
Baltimore	0	7	3	21	31

Washington			Baltimore
14		Score		31
247		Total Off	354
131		Rush Yds	178

0		PR Yds		0
152		KR Yds		64
7		Turnovers	5
5-12 (41%)	3rd down Conv	5-11 (45%)

Todd Heap		BAL	4	72	18.0	0
Derrick Mason		BAL	4	46	11.5	0
MArk Clayton		BAL	2	37	18.5	0

Ladell Betts		WAS	3	58	19.3	0
Antwaan Randell El	WAS	2	27	13.5	0
Santana Moss		WAS	1	16	16.0	0

Sacks:

Baltimore - 2
Washington - 3

Another thing that I need to look at is the fatigue, injury and auto-sub sliders. By the end of the 3rd quarter I a lot of my starters (specifically Ray Rice) never made it back into the game. Same with a lot of Washington's defense which is what led to a lot of Willis McGahee's rushing yards and my 21 points in the 4th quarter.

This game honestly should have ended 17-14 with me having 40 less rushing yards.

There were a lot of injuries as well. It may have only a play or two or a series but I don't think some of these injuries should have happend.
