Hmm, I'm reading a lot of changes to competitive gameplay, but nothing for sim? Are there any changes to CPU QB play at all. Please tell me I'm missing something...

I noticed that too, of course more MUT issues fixed and added. Sucks how franchise is slowly being put towards the back burner. I wonder is extra points are still missed when supersimming.

You are crazy to think they were going to change CPU QB play in a patch at this point. It is what it is for this year.

CPU QB play is my #1 hope for a fix as well. I’m skeptical they can fix the CPU QB AI with a patch but I’m holding out some hope. I’m hoping the note about addressing several issues mentioned in the franchise twitter thread includes a fix for CPU QB AI. I’m excited to follow this thread today for impressions and can’t wait to test later tonight.

I believe that's referring to the twitter feed that's in franchise mode. I doubt it has anything to do with gameplay or anything else other than just the tweets you see there.

Do the fixes and updates part apply to CFM?

Re: Madden NFL 18 Patch Available Now, Patch Notes Included

Ok, this is ****ing ridiculous.

Since release, this forum has been flooded with posts about the QB AI and its issues. It was very clear that it was the most necessary fix when it came to gameplay. People have been talking about this since the Gamechangers released videos a week before release.....

.....and it looks like NOTHING was done.

I see fix after fix that addresses competitive mode or MUT but only one that directly addresses sim mode gameplay and even that isnt the right fix. Clipping/Block in the back penalties are manageable by just lowering the sliders. If you were going to fix the penalties, how about fixing Defensive Holding which is non-existent no matter what the slider setting is?

There is no excuse for this anymore. Longshot is complete. NBA Live has been released. There is no reason that some members of that dev team couldnt have focused on the QB AI issue during the last 2 mos and at least attempted a fix.

Does the “situational pass rusher” update apply to CFM?

Agree! With all the other great games about to release I can't see Madden getting into my rotation so I think I'll just trade it in towards another game.

Wow. Not a mention of Defensive Holding never being called.

Not a note on QB play in franchise.

Not one mention of anything done for "Simulation" style.

EVERYTHING is listed for Competitive and MUT. Wow. Just wow.

Ok then, time to hang this game up, guess I need to figure out if I can get into basketball.

What did they fix on the players and coaches listed??

I only knew about peppers and kapernick ??? I haven't heard anything about other players listed.

Re: Madden NFL 18 Patch Available Now, Patch Notes Included

Are recovered fumbles finally being tracked in games played for CFM? That was the most glaring stat issue in CFM and would seem like an easy fix.
