Re: Madden NFL 16 Tuning Update Arrives, Tunes Risk/Reward Factor in WR/DB Interactio

I noticed the game sped up as well. No placebo.

Lol. I'm not seeing any of those things. Madden plays very different from game to game. Give it more time and see what happens.

I only played 1 game online but it seemed faster. Maybe just a real good connection.

Ive watched three league games played in our test CFM. The tuner is fine. There are more INTs popping up here and there but you can still go deep and exploit 1v1 matchups. Game is pretty balanced

don't know if it was the tuner or the latest roster update but all of a sudden no one can field a punt

I've only played one game thus far, but I can say it appears safety play has improved significantly.

Has safety play improved well enough to play Zone D successfully? Kinda sticking to man D this year because zones get abused because safeties do weird things.

Played my first game with the new tuning and they definitely made some nice changes. It's only one game but I had two picks by my deep safety and he actually looked intelligent in what he was doing.

They also definitely changed something with the WR catching. I've had my settings with CPU at 40 lately and they never just flat out dropped passes and in the game I just played they must have had 5+ drops. It seems like they may have buffed the pass reaction as well because I seeing DB's be a ton more aggressive all around, not just the safeties. It was night and day between what I was dealing with before and in such a good way. I got robo'd by Dalton last night for 22-27 and Cutler was 18-38 against me just now on the same settings. Hopefully this will continue so I have to adjust my settings again but this feels like a really positive update.

Also, I don't know if it was anything but I actually had more success going downfield than before. I had an extremely hard time having any kind of success deep but I had two completions in the game to Maclin that were extremely rare before. Most likely nothing but I thought it was interesting.

Online H2H, great defense! Is this the result of the tuning update? I was expecting the LB to let the WR get past him.

Oh no!!! After tuner, I lost my FIRST CFM game!!! Well, 1st CFM game that counted. Lol. I've had to replay a few games due to cloud saves not working. But, played the Panthers late in the season and struggled to throw the ball Matty ice threw 4 Int's, but they were all mostly legit. I saw ZERO 1 handed catch attempts which is rare for roddy white and Julio jones. I normally see about 3 per game based on the way I play, but saw no attempts. It was a good, close game. I don't have any complaints, yet. But, interesting that the game felt a little different and def felt a little tougher to pass. Only 1 sample size, though.

How do u replay a cloud save game? Mine wouldn't let me in, kept giving me the servers error. And now if I go to fc it asks for cloud or offline, as it did before I started the cf.

You should know by now, anything EA does always have an unintended side effect. Good thing is, this side effect was a good thing.

GMSS, are playing on all madden or all pro also what speed are you playing , normal or slow and last what speed thresh do you have it set at?

I wonder if people will see different results with the new tuning with different settings.

Re: Madden NFL 16 Tuning Update Arrives, Tunes Risk/Reward Factor in WR/DB Interactio

I've been playing this morning, with and without the tuner. These are my observations:

To me the game feels more stiff, rigid with the tuner than without. It is difficult to explain, but it definitely feels different.

With the tuner, I am seeing kick offs sail out of bounds. The kickers don't seem to have the same accuracy. I'm not sure this is a good thing or bad.

This an odd one: test games have been Seattle vs Seattle. I am using the same roster for games with and without the tuner. With the tuner, SEA has a team rating of 87' while without the tuner, same roster, a rating of 91.

So strange

In any case, I am leaning towards the better game without the tuner. Sorry online guys... Eh, not really

I have to do more testing but I agree the gameplay was more organic before the tuner. With the tuner the run game seems more jerky and less fluid. Also it seemed to affect my run blocking making the slider ineffective.. I drop my sliderv-10 with the same results.. IDK... I had my line play almost perfect before the tuner now I can run Iso all day..

I personally didn't download the tuner update because I thought it was fine. But that is just me.

Oh by the way, does anyone know if it is possible to turn off the pop up asking if I want to download the tuning update every time I get on madden?

Re: Madden NFL 16 Tuning Update Arrives, Tunes Risk/Reward Factor in WR/DB Interactio

These comments regarding the tuner are the reason why i didnt download it. Play now games have been perfect for me with the sliders i came up with. Id hate to test another time basically rendering previous testing useless.

Is there a way to not use the tuner after you downloadl it like the nhl series?

This is a must imo....

Is there a way to delete the tuner to go back to the previous settings? If we can then i might give this a try
