Matt, just joined, had to say love the slider sets. Definitely makes the game more playable. The only problem I seem to have is with CPU interceptions.
Some of this is All Madden cheese, but it can be frustrating--though I have gotten much better at Pass Defense as of late.
My biggest issue is interceptions off tipped passes. The CPU always has a guy come out of nowhere and catch a deflection, but I'll bat a pass in the air and literally two or three of my guys will just run under it or if I switch to a player they rarely react. I've had a linebacker jump over my tight end for a pick, players falling to the ground making a pick. Also, they are almost always a pick six--so they're even more devastating. When it's a superstar I don't mind, but a teams 3rd best corner?
I dropped CPU interceptions to 37 and mine to 45; in three games I have 4 picks after having 2 picks in 6 games. I threw 4 picks in 6 games, and only have thrown 1 since. I noticed that I get more pass breakup animations for my players, which is nice, but not a crazy number of picks. For the CPU, they can still pick me off if I make a poor throw but I see less pop-up interceptions and highlight picks.
Overall, most games play great especially if you play realistically (punt on fourth, kick field goals, etc.) as the CPU seems to cheese/script you less. Now if only they would go back to a physics engine...
