    Re: FBGRatings Seeks to Recalibrate Madden Ratings, Change Game

    All,

    A very large update is being uploaded now. Should be up in about 2 hours. All 26,535 players have been updated with about 275 getting an OVR rating change. All the rest have had some attribute changes (you can tell because their +/- is now +0).

    Let me know if you have any questions.

      Sorry to sound like a novice but can someone give me an overview of what exactly these ratings are and how they affect gameplay

          I'm sure it's been asked and I've searched for 15 minutes. Has someone implemented these into rosters for the ps4 in community files? Thank You.

            Check the Madden 15 rosters page.

              Madden needs alot more work than just ratings adjustments.

                I decided to use these rosters and so far I enjoy them quite a bit ( I've completed two teams so far ) but I feel like something is missing. Does anyone have a good slider set recommendation to use with these ratings I've searched the sliders forum but I've had no luck

                  i was going to give it a chance...then I looked at the site and randomly viewed 2 players. So arian foster's strength is a 70 but rob gronkowski's strength is a 63 huh? Scurrrrrrrrrr!!


                  Nosir...I don't like it

                    Depends how strength is used by each position, but in each player's combine, they both benched 23 reps...so If anything, they should have equal strength...

                      You do realize that Foster squats and cleans more than Gronk too, don't you? Every ratings is data driven. I do not pull numbers out of thin air.

                        The STR rating is based upon the 1RM for all players' bench, squat, and clean.

                          Data driven is good, but do you know for sure how Madden calculates the numbers, and is it even possible to get a true strength in madden, represented?

                          I believe it's already impossible for madden to represent Speed and acceleration accurately to real life numbers?

                          Actually 2 of my main concerns is "Awareness" and "Play Recognition." From what I understand the offense uses Awareness more, and defense uses play recognition...I am wondering if there is a cut off where it is just too low for any player in madden to the point that they are messing up the most basic of plays; such as just blocking the nearest defender?

                            It doesn't really matter how EA determines a player's STR in Madden. What we do at FBG is rate players' attributes the same way scouts would rate them in real life. The only difference is that we then convert the scouting data into Madden numbers.

                            Madden does not accurately represent Speed and Acceleration in the game (see my thread). However, FBG Ratings still rates players as if Madden did.

                            Think of FBG Ratings as the real-world way of rating Madden players assuming that the game functions as it would in the real world. All we care about is the data and the numbers, not necessarily how they perform in game. That is up to EA to fix, not us.

                              There is a huge difference between weight room and football field...do you really think foster plays with more strength than gronk? I understand the premise for this roster, as it is why I was intrigued, but football is not a math equation where A=B. Your system is like the old BCS system lol

                                The rating for strength is static for all players in this system. The 1 rep max in all 3 metrics are key indicators of static strength. There is much academic scholarship to support this. How players utilize that strength is what you see on the field. Technique involving better leverage can make a weaker player seem stronger than a player with better static strength. Our system only measures the static strength for all players. This was the opinion of our expert consultant for this metric. You can read our faq page for more details.
