So the outside WR with a Streak beat him 99% of the time. When the SS try to react to the Streak, it´s too late. And to make things worst.. the CPU AI has the WRONG LOGIC to call Cover 2 when they are 3rd and long. Or even late in the game when the user needs a deep pass. Unless it´s 3 sec left with no TO on the middle of the field.. this is the only time when they call prevent. So winning a game by this.. is not fun.. gamebreaker for me at least. I have uploaded a diagram to explain what i´m trying to say. Not good at english.. neither at drawing

Nice Job booker, but for those seeing the formation, realize the safety is playing more towards the middle of the field. In a real life scenario the safety should begin to shade toward the sidelines to provide deep coverage help for the cornerback. In this game, the safety stays put the middle of the field until the ball is thrown, resulting in the outside receiver getting too much of an advantage.

Yes but can't you shade your safeties inside or outside? Similar how you can with your linebackers, spread and pinch. If you spread your safeties they will play more to outside hashes, where if you pinch safeties they will play more towards inside hashes. Normal will play the hashes

I don´t believe you can do that. even though.. remember we are complain most about the CPU rather than the user.

So for those who says don´t run zone cover 2 or, control the S yourself, etc etc, please keep it.

Thanks.

Understandable but I am pretty such you can pinch/spread your safeties. Isn't it triangle or Y then right stick up or down. I am also pretty sure you can shade left or right with your safeties using right/left on right stick. I am addressing this from a scheming point of view. Something we use to do alot with APF. Not everything is broken but more a gameplan scheme. Now if the computer is being beat on this more often than not then yea it is a problem. But I would be interested in using two controls in practice mode. Running 4 verts against cover 2 zone and test pinch/spreads and see the outcomes.

Yes you can make your safeties play closer to the sidelines or more in the middle of the field with a coverage audible. It's like you said, Y, then up or down on the right stick. Up is to spread, down is for the middle.

So now we should just teach the CPU how to shade its safeties.

Yes, I know how to shade my safeties, but my concern mostly refers to CPU play.

^^This. The CPU doesn't seem to use all the tools that are available to the player. Ex. aggressive D-line, Strip Ball and pass coverage destroy the CPU even on Heisman. The CPU doesn't adjust Big Run, Catching or Blocking to conservative.
