Forme95 AA Default Cpu vs Cpu Sliders

[forme95]

For CPU vs CPU only. I play single team Offline Dynasty.

What I look for when making these are for stats and time to fall in line with EA stats not real stats. This is a video game and cant portray real life. The game and AI doesn't play to real life, therefore chasing real life is a slideritis nightmare. I want to see good field play and lets call it a realm of realism, but more in line with EA. I try to keep the sliders close to default because the further you go off default, the more the game plays to sliders then ratings. Thus making building a team useless.

I have about 100 hours of testing with these using 3 different dynasties. Ohio State, Florida, and Central Mich. Each dynasty has been its own. Each have played year 1 as expected. The only thing changed was the teams. The settings and sliders have been the exact same. To me thats the other nice thing. The games do not play the same with varied team ratings. A powerhouse plays like a powerhouse, a average team plays average and a small school plays like a small school.

Im on my 3rd year of default HUM/CPU sliders. I believe that the only adjustments needed for cvc is in the penalties and time. I also do not make ANY ratings, traits, or playbook adjustments. The more you skew the game, the more off the beaten path you get.

Weather games increase everything. Penalites, mistakes, some funky play, and horrible kicking. Its the game, not sliders.

If games start playing what you think is a "WTF". Exit the game and reset and reload sliders. Ive had this happen 1x in 100 hours. It happens, its the game, it isnt perfect.

Here is what we going with. We are moving to Varsity! Gameplay is so much better. A few minor changes needed to be made to combat the human side of it. These are really playing well. We will go from here. A few minor tweaks may still need to be made, but these ARE IT!

I want to give a big shout out to Armor. A lot of these stem off his base set and got me to where I am. Also, Ive been using his template to post, which I never really gave him credit for. He is a slider guru and understands what the balance of gaming is and how it should look on the field.

The only thing I have left to play with is Offside, False Start, Holding, Face Mask.

I had and liked it at 55,55,60,60 but the running game was just to low.

Then I tried 60,60,50,45 and it opened the running game way to much and QBs almost had to much time to throw, that they waited to long and miss threw the receivers to much.

We are going to run 55, 55, 55, 50 for the next few games and see how it does. The next 3 games will be against more even ranked opponents so should get a good test.

Thanks for these! Quick question, if (F) is final what is going on with some settings that have multiple numbers? I assume quarter length is either 12 min 20 sec OR 13 min 17 sec, right?

No, far right is the current setting. If its 55, 35 then 35 is current. I'll update OP to make it clearer. (F) is final being it will not change. Of course unless something drastically changes in gameplay.

Injuries Im not set at yet. More concerned with gameplay, injuries will be easier when gameplay is all said and done.

Ohh okay, I've got it now! Thanks for the quick clarification.

Yeah I agree...slideritis is driving me crazy so I'm going to try this.

OP cleaned up. Only the current settings will be showed. I have a private spreadsheet for changes. This will cause less confusion.

Testing 50 injury and holding back to 60.
