PS5 Madden 23 Slow-Sim Sliders

[dawurts]

This slider set is excellent for use with the Slow Sim feature. To use Slow Sim, start the game normally, then before the kickoff, pause the game and go down to "Super Sim", click on that, then press square (on PS5) to bring up the Sim Speed Menu, at which you select "Slow Sim", go back and then down to "Jump Forward", select that, and finally press "To End of Game".

I am now a hardcore member of the Slow Sim Fan Club! After having tested these sliders thoroughly, I'm very happy with the quality of gameplay I'm seeing.

The key to these sliders working right is having default penalty numbers. Something about tampering with the penalty numbers really does skew the effects of the sliders.

Also, to achieve the level of gameplay that I'm seeing -- which I'll soon be broadcasting at my twitch channel (see end of post) -- it is important to have parity (or minimum speed threshold) set at 93, and the skill level (set in the initial screen of the game) at PRO. Finally, set the Player and Cpu slider numbers manually on the main screen (on the far right), then import them into your franchise afterwards.

Re: PS5 Madden 23 Slow-Sim Sliders

Look forward to seeing your twitch. I am a long time cpu vs cpu slow sim guy. Cant wait to see these. I finally found a nice mix myself and am rolling my CFM with it.

What clock are you using? Any assists, progressive fatigue, Breakout senerios, x-factor?

Curious, which roster set do you use? I was playing with default 75 pre season and could never get the right (eye) gameplay. I then started testing with the active roster and wow did it change how the game played out. More balanced and better gameplay and animations.

I was using playmakers, all default, a mix of the two, my own close to default, and I just couldnt find a good balance.

Re: PS5 Madden 23 Slow-Sim Sliders

It's a fun roster to use! I wish there were more vintage rosters. Next-Gen play is amazing. I'm using 12 minute quarters, no assists, default penalties, but yes to breakout scenarios and x-factors, playtested through preseason rosters. Soundwave's 1987 roster shows evidence of his hard work well done - all the equipment is right for the era.

Hey, interesting set. Just curious: how did you settle on 93 Speed Threshold?

I got it from one of the posts here, and now I'd never go back to anything else. The results are so realistic imo.

I’ve seen 95, but never 93.

Now that you mention it, I think that might have been what I started with, then settled a bit lower eventually.

This game really showcases the slider set!

Re: PS5 Madden 23 Slow-Sim Sliders

For your franchise how many teams are you controlling? I usually only do 1-4 teams max. I definintely want to test these as I am always looking for good Next Gen slides that re updated as things change. Are you using the first or 2nd set of sliders in your original post and is there a reason your tackling is so low? Just curious.

32 team franchise exclusively, playing every game. I'm getting better enjoyment and numbers from the second set, because it's designed for full games of 15-minute quarters. The stats are pretty good.

The last game I played, today, one team had under 75 tackles, the other team having a bit more. I work hard to make sure the playbooks are right for each team.

I can't stress the import of parity. I recently tried going two points lower, at 91 parity, and it was like watching a Charlie Chaplin movie. Also scoring and yards both increased dramatically.

At 93 parity, the players move fluidly yet not too fast, and stats are nearly what they are on a football field on Sundays. Imo anyway.

Any new changes or is the OP still what you are running?

After the latest patch gameplay was affected and I had to make slight changes. Was getting too many sacks and dropped passes and fumbles. Gameplay is better again now!

By the way, if you don't want to do it manually, just download these Slowsim sliders on PSN by looking for PSN ID J1m_Rockford

Re: PS5 Madden 23 Slow-Sim Sliders

As the videos prove, this Slow-Sim set is shining finally, after I've settled with near-out-of-the-box numbers after the latest patch gave us "various gameplay fixes".

At last, tailbacks are hitting corners effectively, screens are sometimes actually working, and scramblers are occasionally finding routes to run when frustrated by excellent coverage. Games have never been better than this...now let's just hope for no more gameplay "fixes".

Re: PS5 Madden 23 Slow-Sim Sliders

I know you are playing 15 min quarter slow sim for all games, but what would the recommended settings / sliders be if I just wanted to control one team?

I wouldn't see a reason to change anything. Gameplay is great with these settings/sliders with or without all-team control.
