    Sliders stop being used by the game ?

    I have read a few comments about that after some time, for an unknown reason, sliders stop having an effect on gameplay and the only solution is to uninstall the game and start over.

    Really ?
    That may explain why I stopped getting penalties in my games.

    Truth or myth ?
    Can we prevent the problem ?
    Is there a less drastic fix than uninstalling everything ?

    That explains EVERYTHING!!!! I had a slider setting for BAP, I started out 8-14-2, was a -6. I didn't touch ANYTHING. I won 14 straight, and overall went 23-2-1 after the 8-14-2 start. That explains a lot if that's true, because there's no reason why working sliders should have that big of a turnaround.

      No re install needed. Been an issue for years. When you "feel" the change, just dashboard the game and restart it. Then it should be fine.

        Definitely has nothing to do with player skill improving and/or adjusting to things...

            Happens to me every time it is severely frustrating. How do you get the sliders to stick?

                I had the same issue. You gotta set your sliders in the main menu outside of franchise mode.

                  What does "dashboard the game" mean?

                    Close the game out, then restart it.

                        Wasn't this an issue last year? How can this not be fixed yet?

                          Does this work in franchise? And does this mean everytime you adjust the sliders you just save and then dashboard the game and then restarting it the slider update will work?

                            I think I just had this same thing happen to me. For awhile my games were playing great. The "bad" teams were playing "okay" and the good teams great.


                            Suddenly, it felt like every game was the same.

                            Playing as Chicago against Calgary:
                            Every penalty was against my team.
                            Going into the 2nd period, they are suddenly 3/4 on the PowerPlay.
                            They were outshooting me 18-5 end of the 1st.
                            Winning 3-1 in no time.
                            Amazing angle goals going in with ease.
                            Pass % was back in the mid 80's. (pass accuracy rating for CPU is 12??)

                            Prior to this, the CPU pass accuracy was mid to low 70s....they had a hard time scoring cross crease, the "weaker" teams looked it, etc..etc..etc.

                            What a frustration this has now become.

                              The key is here IMO is how the skating feels. When you notice the skating feeling loosey goosey and players not having any weight to them etc, time to dashboard the game and reload.

                              The times I have felt these things happen the most are when I'm playing a game, then pause it. Come back and have to reconnect my controller because it auto shut off. Also notice it even if my controller doesn't turn off, but if i pause for a few minutes then start back up.

                              If you go play an online game mode and come back to your season or franchise, it gets loosey goosey as well. It happened a few times to me after EASHL games.

                              A few times, i just went in and changed the game speed up, backed out, resumed the game, then paused put speed back to where it was and it was fine.

                              Id rather dashboard it and restart, that way everything should be fine.

                              Note to self, just play the games straight through, no pausing (long).. LOL
