    Slider set up based on Team Ratings (XBOX 360)

    After becoming extremely frustrated with different slider setups, I thought about assigning sliders to a teams particular letter rating for offense and defense. If a team has a B+ offense, i assign that team a certain number for all offensive sliders and if a team has a C+ rating, i give that team a certain number for all the defensive sliders I do leave ints at 0 for me. Im getting pretty good results, im beating the teams im supposed to beat and having tough games versus those im suppose to. This has been extremely fun, I so look forward to playing the C and D teams, lol, after a loss, talk about running up the score.

    Here is the setup...

    XBOX 360
    All American
    7 min
    Ask Corso for Offense and Defense
    I click on the game preview with the right thumb stick before each game and use those ratings for each team in my dynasty games(they seem to change at the screen where u can choose who to play with).


    A+=75 *thank goodness i havent seen an A+ team yet
    A/A-=70 *vs USC using Washington and was down 24-0 at the half, UGLY
    B+= 65
    B= 60
    B-= 55
    C+= 45
    C/C-= 40
    D+= 35
    D/D-=30

    Im currently playing with WVU(Talk about an easy schedule) in my dynasty and they have a B+ offense and defense. Im 9-1, I only have 4 tough games on my schedule, Maryland, Syracuse, Louisville and Pitt. My only loss came to Louisville, 51-28(momentum killed me on the road), .

    Scores and Stats from using this set up...

    vs Marshall W51-21
    vs Div 1AA NW W76-14
    vs Maryland W29-15
    at ECU W45-14
    at Miss St W56-17
    vs Syracuse W48-35
    at UConn W56-10
    at Louisville L28-51
    vs Cincinatti W54-7
    at Pitt W28-21
    USF and Rutgers are left and those look like 2 blow outs

    Stats

            The only thing is I changed my rankings a little bit. Here they are.

            Heisman

            Human INT slider is always set to = 0

            A+ (75)
            A/A- (70)
            B+ (65)
            B/B- (60)
            C+ (40)
            C/C- (35)
            D+ (30)
            D/D- (25)

              good to hear your enjoying them. i started my second season with WVU(A off and A- def, ), i pretty much handled Marshall but they put up some good numbers on the ground and in the air. I had a tough game vs Maryland, they were a B-(55 sliders set) on off and an A-(70 slider set) on defense, the final score was 28-0, it was 0-0 at halftime.

                Just wanted to say that I gave these a shot and so far I love them. Been using slider settings for years and when I read this I thought it was a very original idea. Anyways, using SDSU in my dynasty (State is pretty good now) I played UCLA who was just slightly worse then me and played an outstanding game against. I won 35-28. But more then the score was the fact that the game felt real. Was using other sliders before and while the games were ok it never felt right. Back to my original point which was to say good job with this idea and thanks.

                  Re: Slider set up based on Team Ratings (XBOX 360)

                  Here are the stats from my first game with these sliders:

                  1988 ND (me) 46 1995 FSU 7


                  ND
                  off A- def B+
                  FSU
                  off B+ def B

                  Stats fsu/nd
                  FD 7/22
                  TOff 178/391
                  Rush-Yards 29-45/42-193
                  C-A-TD 8-21-1/15-24-2
                  PassYDs 133/198
                  Sacked 2/0
                  Turnovers 3/0
                  Fum/lost 4-1/0-0
                  INT 2/0

                  RUSHING
                  ND-Green 21/116, Rice 4/33, Brooks 11/40
                  FSU-Dunn 17/21, R. Preston 4/29, D. Kanell 5/-11


                  All in all, I know the score is lopsided but the stats came out pretty realistic. ND used it's dominant running attack with Green and Rice and once they got the momentum they were hard to stop. It just seems that once a teams momentum meter is full the other team starts to fumble and turn the ball over alot. I wish there was a way to tone down the fumbles.

                  Both teams did sub in 2nd team o and d late in the game with the score out of reach. One disturbing thing was that no matter how bad FSU was losing they NEVER abandonded the running game. I had an INT return for a TD as well as a punt.

                  I'll try a few more games to see if I need to make adjustments.

                    thanks, in my last 2 dynasty games with WVU (A off and A- def) I defeated Washington St. 45-27 and Maryland 28-0, in the WSU game, I got out to an early lead and then got outscored in the second half 27 to 10. In the Maryland game, it was 0-0 at the half, so pretty much 2 different types of games.

                    Now i got my feelings hurt in an experiment game, lol, when i tried out a C+ team vs a good team. I started a dynasty game between Kentucky(me) vs Louisville. They took me out pretty good, the final score was Louisville 49 Kentucky 12.

                    The slider set up for me was C+(45) for everything and Louisville B(60) offense and B+(65) for defense. I couldnt do anything on offense or defense, their HB ran for 154 and 3 TDs but their QB had a bad day, 11-30 165 yds, 2td and 2int, it seemed like after he threw 2 early picks, he was rattled, this is the same qb who lit me up in my WVU dynasty for almost 400 yds. There defense was just all over the place, speed and power. I finished with 170 yds passing and 1 int, my qb was 18-35(sacked 4 times), i had no running game.

                        I used to make team specific sliders for ESPN 2K5 and they were unreal. But i never really thought about doing it for EA games. LOL don't understand why since i was always messing with sliders every game. Now I have been awoken to this idea on EA games and I couldn't be happier. Now I can't wait for Madden and use the team specific sliders on there. The reason that team sliders are so good is that every game has a different feel and you have to game plan for the team you are playing. The plus side of this is the game doesn't become repetitive and boring.

                          yeah, i cant wait for madden, i tried the team specific slider set up for madden 06 on the 360, I did a test game between NO and SD on all madden, NO rating was 87 off and 85 def, SD rating was 86 off and 83 def(go figure)(83 is lowest team rating with my updated roster). I put NO at 60 off and 40 def and SD at 60 off and 30 def, well, Deuce ran all over me, 150 yds by the 3rd qtr and i was down 27-7. Tomilinson for me had 120 but my passing with Rivers stunk. Im really excited to see how this plays out in 07.

                            I haven't tried these yet, but I can't believe that after all of these years, that slider adjustment just may be this simple!

                            Great idea!

                            I'll have to try these later.

                              i was thinking the samething, i did this in a madden game on all pro and got good results. man, can u imagine the struggles u'll have in using a C or even at times a B rated team in a dynasty now going up against the big boys.
