6 games into my CFM, so I have a had a pretty good sample size. AP W/Default slider and the CFM setup workaround that all the slider gurus put out.

1. So the computer Defensive AI is pretty bad at choosing plays and moreover, man coverage is definitely broken. How I know this is I had literally a 383 yd 4 TD day with Sammy Watkins and what kills me is it comes when I audible into a streak route when the FS comes into the box or plays to middle of the field. Just seems like its automatic to bomb. I have had to purposely/mentally take this out of my playcall habit. Also...in the cowboys playbook...pro set...the toss sweep is an automatic 10+ yard every time. every once in a while the AI will scheme against it, but when they do I audible into something, and then audible back into the sweep just to see if they bite and they do every time...I am 6-0 and it seems mostly due to computer playcall and AI.

2. Still some glitches where oddly enough...on the said sweeps from above...the CPU AI gets caught i a glitch while pursuing and they stand still. Happens randomly but check it out for your selves.

3. There is absolutely ZERO individual player quirks in regards to resigning with teams. Teams resign their studs at will and there is no drama. There is no strategy for FA in this game so if I want, I can throw the fair market value and the guy is signed. Easy. No worries of how he feels about the team, the scheme, or even play time. No interaction for convincing.

As someone said earlier...frostbite will fix some animations and visual portions of the game...but there is some real problems with how this game is played. Coaching AI, strategy, playcall, QB tendencies and skill, CFM interaction ect...I am going to keep playing because I enjoy playing it, but I gave up long time ago trying to expect this to be where I think it should. Cant want this game to be better than the designers aspire it to be. Just my .02, but until Madden team brings in people like SCEA does for the show then this will never be what we want it to be.
