Basically all the major offline stuff is pushed to patch #2. And that probably won't come out until November.

Well that some guy is the offline franchise developer.

Thanks a lot for the updates. Glad to hear sacking the CPU is being looked at. I realize this is lower priority for most people than flats, etc., but I can't stress how big of a deal this is for me.

Thanks.

Ok I understand Ian wanting to pay attention to online play. But it seems in these 2 videos he focus more online stuff more then anything. He never mention why the AI controlled Defenive players on human controlled D ain't getting enough pressure on the AI QB. I think these videos was good and all and thanks alot Ian. The AI QB not taking enough sacks because of the new animation and the wounded duck crap. The wounded duck crap is way to over done. You only see wounded duck pass 10 -20% time during a football game. The ainmation needs to be toned down some. And most QBs in the NFL is not going throw the ball into triple coverage evertime when they are going to get sacked. The AI throwing the lame duckpass when going down is way overdone. I don't know what to say. Also I hope the human pass rush blocking on offense gets address in the 2nd patch because it is total killer agaist the AI. No time in the pocket to scan over my options.

Yah fatigue should always be a big factor in all sports video games.....This will only help weed out the cheeeezers who do not play simulation type games

Nothing in the FAQ was mentioned about maybe getting a proper game manual that explains how everything works in this game......That alone !! might go a long way in solving some of issues people are complaining about in this game and maybe there are better and easier ways to cover the flats that we do not know about.

How bout an online game manual tutorial ? .....I think that's a great idea

exactly. i dont get it. it shouldnt be any more effective than putting a fast qb in the shotgun and scrambling. the only difference is that if you have the wildcat, its a rb who may be better at breaking tackles, but far less accurate at throwing. I understand limiting the audibles, but to not be able to sprint is just stupid.

Have you tried using hardcore playcalling? The CPU definitely seems smarter with hardcore playcalling on. Give it a shot, if you haven't.

Nothing on correct tackle stats so my LBs make the pro bowl once in awhile? How about 3-4 pass rush effectiveness?

I agree with you as I feel online is more important to EA than offline and this video and fixes left me with the same feeling.
