The "scheme" is in essence determined by the playbook. Change to a 3-4 or 4-3 playbook and you will be running that D even when the "depth chart" appears schemed for the wrong D. Your 2nd MLB on the depth chart will be your LILB and your 2nd DT will be your R/LT respectively.

No, it won't look pretty, but your team will be the respective type D of the playbook.

How do I go about changing the playbook? I'm currently using Bill Walsh as a coach, so I assume he comes with default playbooks. However, every time I start a game, go to Advanced Settings, Edit Playbooks, my O playbook is "Bill Walsh" and my D playbook is 3-4. So, it feels like there's some influence on my settings (I doubt Bill Walsh is supposed to run a 3-4). I'd be interested to see how this would be remedied...

I'm not sure what you mean here, but that is how you change your playbook, just like you described, advanced settings, then just scroll through the different playbooks.

So can I start a new CC as a CB then later move that same player to ss/fs and or chang your stats ? and can you change other players stats and move then around?
Allso do you get to be the KR/PR or make a Punter or Kicker in CC mode ?

Thinking about getting this game for 360 thanks.

I might be late to the game regarding the patch but I would appreciate if someone could answer these questions

Has body editing now been taken out of offline roster editing I cant' seem to find it.?
also do you have to downloadlatest roster in order to enable player body editing. I know you can't edit online but I just got the game free and was told that you could edit offline. Appreciate any answers.

Can please someone tell me how to put coach mode on in Connected Career mode? I don't see an option to do it. I want to have auto pass on.

you have to turn it on under My Madden > Settings and it has to be on before you create a league (90% sure but i never have it off so...)

My Madden is the only place to turn it on/off and it does NOT work in online league hum/hum games

I really wish they would tune the LE/RE sack and pass rush issue. It just seems the LE is able to break free so much easier. Cam Wake is rated 10 points higher than my LE but he has 7 sacks in 15 games (not horrible but low) while my LE has 22 sacks! C'mon! Wake gets stalemated a lot by the LT which is fine but my LE just runs into the RT and breaks free a half second later. I don't even control my DL much - these sacks are almost entirely with the cpu playing as the DL.

I still wish the cpu would stack, shift, and/or slant a little more against strong side offensive formations. Just running the Power off tackle out of the I-formation can lead to a lot of longer runs with faster backs since the cpu almost always shows a balanced defensive look against an unbalanced formation. The line is more likely to shift to the weak side than the strong side. Why not move the LBs over a little? You don't have to sell out against the strong side but they certainly need to protect against it more than they do. I don't get it.

Just checked and looks like body editing is gone. No more skinny lineman hopefully.

Can you explain a little more when this is happening? Is this a new CCM or one you already had pre Title Update?

both, its only when i use the import custom roster option though. many players look normal when i view them from the manage roster menu, but when i start a CCM a lot of them have odd body builds mainly db's and WR's. before this update i could just go in and change it after i start a CCM, but now obviously i cant anymore.

When ever I've tried to start a new offline CCM since patch (#3), with imported custom rosters, the game locks up when I try to edit the depth chart in practice or in a game, so I would just continue using the updated CCM rosters. Yesterday I noticed that there was new patch (#4), so I edited the rosters again, then proceeded to try to start a new CCM with custom imported rosters and the same thing happened, the game froze up again when I tried to edit the depth chart during the first practice of the franchise, so I guess the issue isn't getting fixed this year. Has anyone else experienced this issue too?
