I haven't yet tested to see what the patch offers in terms of gameplay at default slider levels, but I am seeing a few things I really like.

I'm noticing that my pass-rushing DEs are using their moves now. Has anyone else seen this? I can't tell if it's placebo or if the patch somehow activated those moves.

I really like the way the defensive tendencies manifest themselves. I'm seeing more fumbles and pass breakups from big hitters laying guys out, and I'm seeing more aggressive pass defense from coverage guys.

I think the game plays a little faster in general and that the speed threshold has changed somehow, which isn't bad but takes adjusting to.

I agree with Canes that there are weird times when scrambling QBs just look totally lost some games and take way too many sacks, but it's not super common. I played one Gump QB who took like 8 sacks because he kept trying to scramble right into the rush.

HB screens are still a problem. I'm going to create custom books that eliminate them, period.

On the whole, I like the gameplay.
