What is your O-line and RB ratings. There is a huge difference in the trenches, ratings wise, since the patch dropped.

Yes...I think that this is the problem. I'm playing with Colt and they haven't a good OL...Not horrible but not good. The problem is that all DL destroy me....Good (ok) and bad...All DL plays like elite. I'm going to start a new one to try with a good team and compare..

Playing default all-pro post patch. Offline CFM vs. CPU. Seems pass coverage is not as tight and not as aggressive. Meaning even against some of the highest rated DB's, my receivers get enough separation to make easy catches and often have enough room to make the catch and head up field. I'm not seeing the DB's make any type of aggressive effort to cover tightly, deflect passes, or make aggressive int efforts. As a result, QB comp % for both sides have been extremely high and moving the ball through the air is easy. Has anyone else seen this? Knowing it can be as simple as making one adjustment in the MM and/or CFM screen or some other small tweak, I'm just wondering if anyone is experiencing something similar.

Yes, this is why I went back to unpatched. My defense was giving up crazy amount of yards against as the secondary just seemed much worse.

I need to play more games to make any type of assessment, but, as of now, I haven't noticed this too much. I've been throwing into tight coverage with Rodgers and he is getting picked off. I just need to make smarter choices.

With the new patch in All Madden..CPU defense are like Flash. When you run...When I made the handoff LB or ENDs are here. In passing game I have space to make the reception and CB and LB enters in "turbo mode" to make a interception. In the other side my DB are stupids that only see how WR catch the ball. Try to deflect or intercept? What is this? Is like all defense was elite...Except yours..

I feel that too and it's why I'll come back to All-Pro. Those Superman Jump by the CPU defense to intercept the ball are just insane (and I had the slider at 35).
And running is crazy too. I tried a match with the Falcons against Tampa and after 1 qtr, I ran for only 10 yds with Freeman. I tried again but on All-Pro difficulty and I ran for 180 yds after the first half (with a 66 yds TD).

On All-Madden, ratings doesn't matter like they do on All-Pro. In Madden, the CPU isn't less or more intelligent when you up the difficulty. He has just some kind of mega boost which can make the Browns defense like the Seahwaks defense.

The only thing that annoys me is the defense. I feel like the zone coverage isn't that good that she was ootb and the man defense is broken. Every time, your CB is beaten on a curl route because of this slide bug (I have an exemple on my PS4).

I don't know, I have always felt like the AI doesn't try to score on every drive on All-Pro. Its not just about the boost they get on All-Madden, it seems on All-Pro they aren't aware of down and distance. The AI plays pretty good defense on All-Pro, but I can't get the offense to score any points and that is with just playing a basic tampa 2 or cover 2 defense.

The lack of scoring comes from the qb trying to avoid being sacked at all costs. They do not play to win the game. They play to not get sacked. When it is third and five on the 15 yard line a sack does not hurt you as the field goal would still be there but the AI qb will throw the ball away as soon as it senses preassure as it does no matter the down or distance. What I have sort of figured is that a qb does not want to be sacked more than its sense Preassure trait allows. Oblivious 5, paranoid 4 and on down from there.

As many of you know, I've playing this thing like it's a part time job for over a decade...



Are their lingering issues?

YES.

Should the game have played like this DURING THE ACTUAL NFL SEASON?

HELLS YES!!!

Does the game currently play better than (pretty much) ever, after this latest patch?

YESYESYES.

So?

Thanks EA...

PLEASE use this as the "baseline" for M18 / OOTB...



A little more USER QB inaccuracy and it would be as close to perfect as one could expect from a video game, IMHO...

And qb's should be a threat to take off. Other than that I would say it is the best ever game play wise. That is a big issue for a football game though.

Has anyone been able to find a work around for the frame skipping during practice mode in cfm?

It wasn't initially happening to me after the patch, but today, all of a sudden, it started...

King--have you not seen a drop of in db pass coverage since the patch? As I mentioned a few posts back I see a lot of shadowing and non aggression by CPU controlled db's vs pre patch. Thanks.

No :/

It's frustrating because I just started a new CFM and I can't sim them all.

I hope they patch it (and LT's blocking invisible people).

This is perfectly said and I couldn't agree more... King on a side note I took a look at your blog specifically the split Madden set. Has that been updated since this latest patch I would have an interest in trying it thanks.

Yeah it's a huge issue, Aaron Rogers is trash in this game, I just shut Green Bay out with the Dallas Cowboys, he didnt even attempt to scramble or move in the pocket. For Madden 18 Qb movement in the pocket needs to be addressed big time along with player movement in general which is an eye sore.

Not only QB movement but they need to revamp the intelligence of the CPU like to see the QB trying to win the game instead of behing sack, clock management and so many other things. For me, the gameplay of the game is nearly close as perfect but it's ruined by the lack of intelligence by the CPU.
