CPU passing on AA needs tuning

[Buckeye Country]

I have been playing on AA. The CPU can not get the passing game going. I even edited the opposing teams qb ratings before the game increasing all the important attributes to high 90's and he still sucked. My DB's have ratings in the 70's and 80's and were playing against a couple of stud receivers. I have tried numerous slider combo's and nothing seems to work. I tried lowering threshold, but players break too many long runs. Is anyone else having issues like this?

Yes. The AI is brutal in this game. I can't get the AI passing game going no matter what I do. They will typically be 3/13 with a pick by halftime and thats with their accuracy cand WR catch cranked up and human pass coverage at 0 and Int at 20.

I think its possible that the sliders are reversed, don't work, or don't do what they say they do.

I don't think the sliders for pass coverage or qb accuracy work. I have tried them at 100 and 0 with no significant difference. EA...are you seeing this?

I turned my INT slider down to 10 and pass coverage at 0 to try to help the AI and 2 out of the first 3 passes were picked by my LBs that I wasn't controlling.

Something is foul here.

That's not right, they need to fix this.

I'm curious to find out if HFA is having an impact here. I'm going to try some games over the next few days to see.

I have HFA off. I tried something last night: I set the CPU Pass acc. slider to 0 and my pass coverage at 35. The CPU WR cth is at 65. The computer passed at 51% with over 300 yards. He completed several deep passes. His rating was 99 ovr. with high 90's for accuracy, power and awareness. The CPU's receivers were beast and my db's are slow and young, with the exception of my number one CB. Some of these sliders are not working properly. I am having a very good run game, just can't figure out the passing.

Re: CPU passing on AA needs tuning

you guys must just be good at covering the passing game, No matter what I do even the crappy teams throw the ball all over me. Ive had mtsu's qb go 15-22 for 322 yards on me. lol


Thats on default AA. I dont consider myself the best ncaa player but I do have a live record of 267-23 so im not that bad either.

Computer passes for about 57% on me, which is just about NCAA average for last year. And this is on base sliders. I think some of you mess with them so much you don't know what helps and what doesn't after a point.

I've noticed this too, but in a weird way. For example, I just played Arkansas--still running a Spread Pass Attack.

Their QB went 7-24, 327 yards, 3 TDs. The AI QB can't seem to complete a pass with any consistency, but when they do, it's a long bomb after my A+ Defensive Backfield gets TORCHED somehow.

Played another game against UC with the CPU acc at 0 and wr cth at 65. My pass coverage was at 35. UC's qb threw for over 300 yds with a comp. Percentage of 57.
