Do you ever have more than 35 hours of prep time

Re: Prep time amount

If you play a game on Thursday night, then play a game on Monday night the next week, you get 40 something, and on a buy week you get in the neighborhood of 65 I think. It all depends on how many days of the week you have from your last game to your next.

Thanks for that I wasn't sure if you get more the better the coach you become

Re: Prep time amount

Just wondering what your strategies are for game prep?

Do you focus on one player at a time to max their skills, or do you spread it around to a few different players.

I'm playing with the Bills and focused on Manuel to increase his passing stats and now he's become one of the best QBs in the game by week 5... now to work on building up a shutdown CB

Re: Prep time amount

route 1 for me is raise roster to min 50 cnf, easier if 9ers and you win the sbowl you only worry about new fas or rookies

seems 2 for me is raise tgh/sta and inj if poss to 85 for starters or important backups like qb

then focus on players that are likely to get snaps who need help, tackle or mcv, or awr

raise consistency if poss

i rarely play starters in preseason to try and get rookies some exps, try to get rookies more exps and probably lose the games but play the formation to max their reps

In the fantasy draft I noticed players had this new 1-100 consistency rating, guys like Megatron are 95 while rookies are in the 40's or lower.

Can you improve this rating with XP yourself or does it happen based on what you do or what?

Re: Prep time amount

it can be raised for all players. afaik if you have higher consistency you get more exps/confidence from prep drills and hitting weekly etc goals (???) not sure about that bit though

Re: Prep time amount

Last year there was a problem where the CPU teams did not practice and accumulate XP for their players. This led many people to skip weekly practice so that the competitive balance could be better maintained within CFM over the long run.

Has anyone tested this for Madden 15 to see if it has been fixed?
