Will EA ever fix offline sim stats?

[silveredge96]

This has been an issue since the game launched. EA hasn't even acknowledge that this is an issue. Do you guys honestly think that he dev team will fix offline franchise sim stats this year?

I hope so, I haven't bought the game yet and I won't do it until they fix it. If they don't (as I believe) see you in Madden 23.

EA hadn’t acknowledged it but people with the company have said they ARE aware and they know of a possible fix but they just haven’t done it.

I asked Swami on Twitter if there was any chance for a fix and he replied: “Yeah they just need to figure out why it only applies to offline”.

Hopefully soon.

Is this an issue only with user team’s stats, and what’s the issue exactly?

I mentioned this in the survey they sent out yesterday. Who knows if they read that stuff lol. They ignore most of the beta feedback so they probably ignore that too but worth a try.

You can pretty much control everything but the draft and coaches online (by retiring and creating new characters, then going back before advancing). Might as well make the jump for now. You can’t undo things by restarting, but you can remove cap penalties, make trades, whatever (for example, if you want a great player on another team, switch to the team with the player and trade him with a swap of 7th round picks, then go back).

Its with all teams. Passing yards are way too low compared to the real NFL.

The game does not record longest passes above 25 yards. And average yards per pass attempt is over 1 yard per attempt too low (I spent some time crunching the numbers by adding up all the QB stats). Which would be fine if this was a recreation of the 1970s, but is way too low for the modern era NFL.

The result is that even with a 17 week season no QB gets close to 5,000 yards passing.

Other stats are wrong as well - FG attempts are too low, punting averages too high, fumbles lost is catastrophically too low. Rushing TD's are too high, and rush average is overall too low (although elite HB's are generally about right).

But those listed above have been a problem for years. It's the passing yards that's the new killer problem in Madden 22.

And one thing I will keep repeating in my posts on this on the odd chance that someone from EA might actually pick up on this.....Sabo fixed the majority of these Sim Stat issues 2 years ago via Frosty for his PC mod on Madden 20- I helped him. It was just a case of altering SuperSim values via Frosty. It wasn't always straightforward, but if a mod maker can do it then so can EA.
