Aviator's Simply Legendary Sliders

[Aviator87AC]

Since FIFA 17's release in September, I've noticed custom slider sets ebbing and flowing with a recent trend back towards stock settings (50). Is it just me or did EA get the game play almost spot on this year?

I've tried a few varieties of the sliders on this forum (as well as others) for FIFA 17, but find myself continuously reverting back to default. As others have already pointed out, currently there are some horrific possession bugs ("no-clearance kick" defending has been a stressful aspect of this year's release; the reason I've had to set the controller down and walk away on more than a few occasions).

Therefore, I propose a refined approach. Something which can be accurately built from and adjusted by input received here and via testing. I present to you the Simply Legendary Sliders. FIFA 17 on maximum difficulty but not maximum frustration.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Legendary, Slow, 10 Minutes
Camera Settings, Co-op, custom height (2)

All sliders 50/50, except;
Goalkeeper Ability - 45/45
Still seeing some amazing saves at 45. Less total number of ridiculous full stretches, but might try GK ability at 40. For now keep at 45.
Marking - 60/60
Several hours of testing and marking 60 feels great. AI defense is less likely to awkwardly break down when under pressure. Full backs stay with their marks all the way down. Midfield gives less room for easy through passes.

Good job mate.. That's what i think. Maybe thats because of both we are avaiator :P I feel like , the mechanic of the game is effected by changing sliders much. thats why game can be funny and uncontrolled.

I have a subject about default sliders on page.

Reducing game speed can make game more realistic.ok.
But reducing speed options(acc as well) can do funny results.Thats why i prefer default.
Yeah to increase marking to get more positions,more fauls and counter attacks. Reducing gk ability is necessary on legendary.

I only do not join you to play on legendary.
Think about.When i start for career mode i dont like to get strong teams. I have southampton now. If i accept to lose normal againist strong teams as arsenal,city,chealsea etc, I have to expect to win againist weaker teams than me.
On legendary All the teams play like barca and i hate AI ON Fifa about it. Pes make it the best i can accept.

Cheers

Re: Aviator's Simply Legendary Sliders

Thank you, Klinsi.

I agree - reductions in player acceleration and sprint speed cause problems to the flow of play.

Currently I'm torn between leaving the marking at 60 or raising it higher. It's harder to test with the bugs we currently have on consoles. I'm hoping the defensive logic is remedied with tomorrow's patch, because currently the defense is having a difficult time tracking runs, especially along the wings. Too often, the defender will take an inappropriate intercept angle on through balls, leaving them behind the attacking player. Even worse, along the wings, they will sometimes pull off and then reacquire, which lends to pathfinding/AI defensive assignment bugs (and obvious goal scoring opportunities). Another problem I've seen lately is opposing AI making runs right past my back 4 into the box and scoring. Rewatching the replay shows my defense backpedaling and never challenging. This is seriously frustrating to watch when you've done everything right up until that point.

Testing continues...

Re: Aviator's Simply Legendary Sliders

We should wait for new patch exactly.

I am sure about the slow gamespeed only now. Lets see

Re: Aviator's Simply Legendary Sliders

i play and enjoy my CM with default sliders, marking is a little bit higher, at 68 or 70 but i use shot speed at 49 with 45 gk, also legendary, 15 min, semi/manual controls.

still waiting for first update but i am sceptical thou ... at least for consoles

If that were true then they also could have the ability to know what you're doing even with manual controls. Even if the controls are manual, the code still needs to accept the input and then apply the correct output. Auto controls takes the input and decides the output automatically. You're saying they know the output because it's auto generated, but the output would still be available to the code IF they decided to code in cheat logic as you state.

Hi,
I recently moved my GK settings to 42/42 try that with yours,I will give yours a go too.

Re: Aviator's Simply Legendary Sliders

GK 42/42 sounds like a great compromise. For now, I'm going to leave them the same and get some time in with the new patch (I've been so busy with work and the release of Battlefield 1, I haven't showed much love for FIFA17 lately).

Will update the OP with notes after testing.

I've just turned on to your sliders, I think the community thread is getting away from default too much and creating their own problems. Didn't have chance to play with these sliders pre-patch, but post-patch I have some great games, excited to see whether they continue.
