I was saying that off the notes and don't you think they would have that listed if it was fixed?

Hundreds of fixes, most aren't listed.

Nerf the kicking game even more. This is stupid, especially considering the field goal accuracy slider is broken.

They didn't address the AI not being able to judge the wind and punt accordingly.

They didn't address the lack of RB and WR fumbles.

They basically only cater to the online whiner crowd that wants to catch every pass and make every field goal.

There's more fixes than just the ones listed, or are you saying this from the games you've already played since the patch?

They need to something with the head to head pause it takes to long then the person unpasue the game then pause the game.I played online the person I played used all 5 pause in the first half and the second half the game took way to long.

Also I see the changes to make running more difficult (like less automatic broken tackles, etc.) that were in the tuner are listed here. So did they make runn blocking and broken tackles ever HARDER? Or is the tuner just being rolled into the patch and those are the same changes listed again that were already in effect?

Good call. I'm in the minority, but with my run block slider up to 55, and cpu tackling down to 40, i struggle to run the ball with a lot of consistency. albeit, i'm 0-8 in my franchise so i've been spending a bunch of time playing catchup, opposed to running my O as i'd wish.

Can anyone confirm if the nerfed draft classes are now applied to offline franchises? Thanks!

I'm also curious if they've applied the option for the Rams to not relocated to that boring generic stadium. the tuner we got about a month ago doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere in this, which has me concerned. I was mostly waiting for those changes.

Thanks for the fatigue fix. Gesh it makes no sense, my defense gets red, my offense takes 4 to 5 mins off the clock to score, then when I get back on defense they are still all red. What they need to tune is man coverage. Why does EA do this every year? If zone is good, man is crap. If man is good, zone is crap. What ever happened to the shading that was promised pre-release?

Saw Cam take off on a 3rd and long in the first quarter of my CPU vs CPU and almost pick up the first down. It was a sideline rollout and those weren't unheard of before the patch, but it's still good to see it this quickly. No hesitation or awkward movement - he looked like he knew exactly where he was going.

Also no throwaways so far. I'm not sure if there have been situations where it would have done it pre-patch, but I do know that you could almost count on it happening at least a few times per half before.

Did you even see my post on the same page?

The CPU RB fumbled the ball and the offense recovered the ball.

Did you force the fumble with a strip or did the AI teammates force a fumble?

I don't user any buttons on offense or defense except for breakaway runners that I try to aggressive tackle, so, the answer is no, the run was up the middle.

The RB was Riddick.

That's a big one for me since I like to use those suggestions. All too often it would only give me a single concept with a 2 or 3 very similar plays. I figured something was wrong there - it wasn't like that last year.

Also, LOL @ this comment from Clint regarding NDS being removed from user vs CPU:

@Nterprise_NYY @RexDEAFootball if you wanna cheese the CPU, have at it. If that's fun for you, have a blast

I actually think it's helping the CPU play calling too. I'm pretty sure that's what the CPU uses to call plays. I'm noticing more variety in their play calling.

Still early but, it's not hard to notice when you've played the CPU as much as I have testing sliders. Lol

I've already seen more non QB fumbles. I'm really happy about that.

I even had a nice user strip on a WR.

Are these changes available for preexisting franchises, or will we have to start over?

So, three people have already confirmed in the thread that the QB doesn't fumble post patch and it's not listed in the notes.

Also, a few people have reported that the QB doesn't always throw the ball OUB on a continuous bases with pressure and that wasn't listed in notes, either.

A lot of fixes under the hood.
