    Could be, all I know is I was avg 14.7 pts per game before this tuner. One game after the tuner, I have 502 yards of offense, 38 pts, and no punts. Unless I got significantly better over night with no practice, then yes, it is a placebo effect.

        Just for future reference. Is it possible for us NOT to download the latest tuning update if we choose not to? These comments have me worried now especially since I watched A&S's (Armor & Sword's) twitch broadcast this morning and see how polished he got the game to be with his sliders & edited roster....
        Remain calm.....all is well. Don't get worked up because we have people already ripping apart the tuner.


        I have little to no doubt, Charter, Blue Ninja, TNK, Quinn, and a host of others as well as myself will be able to tweak the sliders and adjust and get this game balanced....without QB edits now that they nerfed pass rushing as was needed and demanded by the communty.

        Freaking EA can't win around here....it's really annoying and downright childish.


        They have made a fantastic game this year. Those who know this are enjoying the heck out of it. I know a lot of us in this great community are working to solve game tuning issues....not constantly complain about them. Constructive feedback is always welcomed...but screaming and pounding the table is really counter productive. They nerfed the pass rush....they had to. It was out of hand. So let's test some sliders and balance this game. We will get it right. Dev's test at default. We don't.

        Who's with me!!!

        Choose your path....either work the game to get the game you want out of it...or trade it in.

        Rant over.

          Dice role mechanic was tuned.....that's how. They tuned the role chance of winning the one on one with the OL lower.

          Simple as that. It is an algorithm fix. The slider will now increase or decrease the chances more effectively. It needed to be nerfed. It was probably too over powering (the out of the box algorithm).

          Testing will commence shortly.

              I dont think its a placebo but i doubt they changed the gameplay that much with a simple tuner. What i think you are experiencing is the randomness of madden itself.
              I played the same game week1 season with same team against same team and some games it feel i`m playing all madden difficulty, other times i think i`m on Pro, sometimes cpu wont run more than 2avg others it will do 200yds per game, etc etc.

              lets wait for the note from EA to be sure what they tweaked.

                Re: Madden NFL 15 Pre-Week 1 Roster Update Available Now with Tuning Update

                I've been labbing with the same two teams me (Bucs) cpu (Titans)waiting for a patch or tuner. I never do extremes on sliders, i.e. 0 or 100.

                The only things I have touched were cpu pass accuracy 44, pass block 55, wr catch 45. Human pass coverage 54. Run block 54 for hum/cpu. Int 45.

                I was struggling to really get my ground game going prior to the tuner. Now I will probably adjust my run block back down. Feels more like previous Maddens with the exception of last years outside run ease. But, it does open your playbook up a bit more because you feel any type of run vs the right defense at least has a chance. Maybe the "win chance" on beating the pass block has also applied to "win chance" beating the run block.

                Cpu QB is only taking sacks on screens now. Less sacks. Pressure appears to be affecting accuracy. The extra time is allowing the cpu QB to throw down field more causing more breakups and lesser completion percentage.

                To me it appears the major changes are run blocking and cpu QB not taking as many sacks.

                  It's only been a small sample size so far but,I'm a little concerned/possibly angry.



                  It's seems like they nerfed the CPU difficulty quit a bit on default AM. I drove down the field pretty easy and SF's run game is not close to what it was in AM. I have this sick feeling that EA once again have into the cry baby casual fan that complained about AM being to hard.



                  Man I hope I'm wrong.

                    All-Pro with default sliders. I beat the Eagles 38-28. I use the Giants.

                    Eagles QBs were a combined 18/25 for 134 yards, 0 TDs/0 INTs. I had 6 sacks as a team. 3 by DE Robert Ayers (My work). 3 others by the CPU off stock blitz plays, I don't hot route on defense, cook up plays etc.

                    Also Jennings had 144 on the ground. Prior to this game, I struggled to get 75 with him. Also, with David Wilson is was very easy to get the edge on runs. I showed some restraint and did not use as much as I could have.

                    Armor & Sword,

                    I hope your post wasn't directed at me. I was not "ripping apart the tuner" I was simply reporting what I found as objectively as possible.

                          People probably complained it was to hard so EA dumbed it down. I haven't played it yet but from the responses in here it seems like the tuner did more harm than good.

                            It's funny. Other than my run game being easier, everything else on offense for me at least has been maybe a tad bit more difficult or lower scoring at least. I'm not on default though. I have some slider adjustments. No cpu team could run on me at all on default pre tuner so that had to be adjusted for me just to get the cpu to average over 1.8 yards a carry.

                            Time will tell. It does not seem dumbed down though. The cpu offense (small sample size, 1 game plus one half 15 minute qtrs.) seems more dynamic. Less predictable.

                              I haven't downloaded the tuner yet but I'm going to say that most people are jumping to conclusions. As another poster said, placebo effect. When you have tuner everyone starts over-analyzing every little detail of every game. I'm just glad they apparently addressed the sack issue. That was honestly the only problem I had with the game.

                              My only question is does the CPU throw the ball away more now?

                                CB Ellis Lankster still on the Jets' roster. He was waived after the Saturday cut-down.
