Capa's Coach Mode Settings

[capa]

I am kind of sort of liking these for COACH mode. Here are the details...please note #1 and #2 below:

1) Coach mode only or cpu vs cpu (work well when move controller to center after game start)

2) tested with my classic roster file

Will probably perform much differently for you using stock EA roster files. By the way...I should also clarify that I play Coach mode or watch cpu vs cpu in PLAY NOW.

2 for qb accuracy! These look really interesting especially with them being on pro...definitely will give these a go!

I know it is extreme, and maybe because I rate the QBs so high on the classic teams, but I have been trying to find a way to get the % completes lowered pretty drastically out of the 75-80% range.

Like I said, I have no clue how they will work with stock rosters and EA ratings.

Plus Coach mode is a whole new ballgame.

Re: Capa's Coach Mode Settings

I play coach mode too and was using Josh sliders with some adjustments. Will begin to use this and post my impressions later.

Re: Capa's Coach Mode Settings

Capa,

What are you using for auto-sub settings?

Re: Capa's Coach Mode Settings

Capa,

What are you using for auto-sub settings?

I use Josh's settings for that:
QB out/in - 0/3
RB - 78/82
WR- 30/35
TE- 30/35
OL - 0/3
DE, DT and LB - 50/55
CB/S - 30/35

Loving these sliders. I have bumped up WRC for both teams. Human at 75, cpu at 99. Trying to open up the passing game a little.

Re: Capa's Coach Mode Settings

I think the most noticeable thing with these sliders are the ability of the runner to get yards after first hit. It may be a tad excessive and need a bit of tuning...not sure yet. But it is nice not to see the runners go down by getting bumped into.

The tackle ratings of the players really matter in this case...

And there have been very few tackles for loss. When you get a TFL you feel like you earned it. The sack numbers have varied but I haven't seen the sack glitch but twice. and it was for my QB both times.

I think you own to something with these sliders.

Thanks. Again, probably not for everyone but there seems to be a lot of variability in these. Coach mode is not played by many but I think these are least a step in the right direction.

Yes they are.

Re: Capa's Coach Mode Settings

Going to give these a go, thanks for posting. The set I've been using was working pretty good aside from the sacks. Seems like maybe a patch cleaned up the sacks, but I give up nothing to the CPU, bad numbers from CPU QB, I will post impressions/stats.

Re: Capa's Coach Mode Settings

Even though it is Coach mode, I may have to bump up Human QB Acc to 3 or 4. I am seeing % Completes in the low to mid 50's which is not horrible, but these QBs on these classic teams are usually elite.

Then again, they are always playing against other elite teams.

Completion percentages were low for me as well. You've got everything else playing perfectly. The run game is amazing. I see some good wr/db interactions as well.

I bumped my WRC to 75; WRC to 99 and QBA to 3. I like to see check off guys have to make amazing catches when the QB is rushed and throws errant.

I've seen a few drops. They won't catch everything. Plus, this opens up down field passing. Something else I've noticed, pre-snap, I will select the receiver I want to have the ball. Seems like 70 percent of the time the QB will go with that target.

Also knocked Fatigue to 55. Default auto-subs. Before the last patch I was using 90. The patch fixed had a huge effect on that slider. 55 is the lowest a player is rated for fatigue in the game. Injuries are at 70 now. Seeing 3-5 a game.

I've seen a few drops with these as well. They won't catch everything.

Re: Capa's Coach Mode Settings

Glad you are enjoying them!

I will lower fatigue to 55 to see the effect and also change autosubs to default. You are seeing multiple RBs get carries right?
