That would be great if it fixed/tuned the gameplay. Definitely would be interested to hear people's impressions.

All I really want is for the QB to not hold the ball so long and throw more downfield passes (stop the dink and dunks in the flat) as well as lower the sack rate (increase CPU pass blocking and QB reaction time).

This! I want to replicate hot-weather teams wearing white at home in September or other intricacies like this in my 32-team off-line league.

You can for online or offline. If you are at home and want the road team to wear white, then choose your dark color uniform. If you are on the road and want to see the home team wear white, select your dark color uniform. Follow the same concept when playing or playing as the cowboys if you want them in their proper colors.

Played a game after the patch. CFM - Player QB - PS4

Only thing I noticed is when it went to a highlight((In my case Andre Johnson) It actually showed him on the screen just before it showed(two meaningless replays) but I thought the fact they showed him was neat. It did not do that in the past.

Reference stats to the previous week that sometimes pops up in the game are still showing all "0" - wish that would get fixed.

I did that when i played Dallas and they still wore blue .Dallas has not worn their blue jerseys vs the giants in NY since 1987 ...Still do not know why you cant change uniforms for the teams you are playing against ..For Thanksgiving i like to play the games and use the throwbacks for both teams ,...Can not do that anymore ...Thanks EA !!!!

The highlight I am referring to is not the replay after each play but it usually comes up when the player was done some things on the field for the whole game.

Not to ruin the "suspense" for anyone that hasn't played the game post patch, but nothing is changed from a CPU QB AI perspective. Patriots (me) at Green Bay. All Pro default (No Tuner). Had to quit after three quarters because I was so disgusted. Rodgers 21-24-274-2TDs was sacked 8 times, 3 of those in the redzone, 1 was a legitimate sack off of a LB blitz, and the other 4 were in zone coverage where Rodgers just stood there.

I'd also like to add that of ALL of the sports games on the market, Madden is HANDS DOWN the UGLIEST animating game I've seen since...well, Madden 13. The rubber bending, the bowling pin falls, the warping, the sliding, the defenders making tackles with their arms at their sides, add your own. It's time to blow up this dumpster fire of a game engine up. What ever happened to the bs marketing line "you'll never see the same animation twice?"

The qb in this game is more concerned with completion percentage than winning the game...untill this changes, no gameplay adjustmentents will improve how long they holds the ball. The logic is not human based and therefore not down and distance related....meaning that if the cpu needs more than ten yards for a completion or first down, the cpu qb will always take the high percntage pass over the ill-advised downfield pass. This makes madden easy on any level as long as you stuff the first two plays. Its lazy programing and is deeply embeded in its code. I've seen the cpu have 7 or more seconds to make a throw and its final determination was an out to the running back for a loss while clearly having another option.

Its funnier that people believe their sliders make a difference vs difficulty.

Are you feeling like the update will necessitate any slider changes?

Thanks

Depends on how extreme your sliders are I guess. I've pretty well went default. I don't play the CPU much anymore though. 80% of my games are online CFM or other online user games

Really surprised to hear you say that this game plays better after the update, charter. I spent all afternoon with this game, and all I can say, is that Tiburon wrecked it. This gameplay reminds me of Madden 13, which was a terrible game. I'm done with it. I tried default sliders and rosters. They dumbed down the pass defense, which is the first thing I noticed. Before the patch the corners and safeties, as well as linebackers, were very aggressive with my settings. Now, I can't get them to be aggressive on any settings. I throw all over the field.

Yea. I don't know. I played a game and a half and I honestly didn't notice much difference. The CPU QB was harder to sack and less Robo in accuracy. It was a little harder to run ISO runs up the middle. It just wasnt as drastic to me. You check out my archived stream and see what you think.

Either way most of my games are against humans these days. That helps a lot for me. Being in a sim league is much better than playing the CPU to me.
