Going to test the worst case scenario on my next game - maxing all the penalties and unleashing what is hopefully chaos. Defensive Holding is the one penalty I can't tweak due to that strange bug, so I'm happy that that one appeared in the last game.

I know A&S is testing CFM penalties (and seeing them), but he's in offline CFM and not online - there may be a difference there.

Edit: LOL. Facemask on the opening kick return. This probably won't take too long....

Edit 2: Another facemask on the first scrimmage play.

What's the weird defensive holding bug?

Based on the edits, looks like maybe just boost them a bit more or it was all small sample I guess.

The defensive holding setting doesn't stick when you leave the penalty menu in CFM. It resets to 50 when you re-enter.

3 facemasks and one block in the back with 5 minutes to play in the 1st quarter. I'll keep playing for a bit, but I may not suffer through this whole thing. Just want to see some other stuff besides facemasks.

At least one slider definitely works.

Yeah I think we're good. The total damage after 1 quarter:

3 Facemask

2 Block in back

1 "Roughing" the Passer (that hilarious looking flop by the QB)

1 Encroachment (legit, caused by CPU jumping into an OL)

If those happen in online CFM, I have no reason to believe the others won't if the slider's high enough.

Good to know, thanks bcruise.

This is true. Penalties on CFM work very different.

I never played play now, i went directly to CFM because i knew gameplay is not always the same. So after 11 or so games, of tuning penalty sliders and get around 6 per team avg. I decided to play a play now game. I couldn`t end it. Penalties were all over the place. I have some penalties sliders at 75 that worked perfeclty on CFM but for play now is too high.
