Sweet!! Thanks for the reply Pongsona

CPU HB's now turn Stretch plays outside to the hash marks. This was a positive sight for me.

They still do not run to open space in most situations though and will generally choose to run North/South until they are impeded by blockers or men on the ground. Maybe this will require additional tuning in future Tuner Sets.

I've noticed the largest difference in Kick/Punt returns by the CPU. They now actually move East/West and evade defenders instead of running straight into the coverage.

CPU QB's still seem to scramble North/South only, not like you would expect a mobile QB in the Vick/Pryor/Griffin mold. Still, I haven't tested enough to know whether certain QB's are different now.

One thing I do believe: Sliders will need to be adjusted post-patch.

This is really great news as a 360 owner!!! This patch sounds like the real deal if everything said is included...personally the bad news is that I just started Mass Effect 2 'cause I didn't expect the patch this soon!!! Now I don't know what to do?!?!? LOL

Just a great day!!! Can't wait to get home and play sumthin'!!!

Running playaction seems a heckuva lot better. I haven't been sacked immediately once yet.

This sort of brings up an interesting point.

Microsoft requires that you get Title Updates if a game is patched, you are forced to get them. But, if you don't have EA Online Pass, then you will not get the tuners. And, from how it sounds, progression and training results are totally borked without the tuners and WITH the patch. So, will this functionally kill the game for anybody who buys the game w/o buying EA online pass?

Now, I bought retail so I have it... but still.. worth asking.
