Madden NFL 16 Title Update #1 Available Now, Roster Update Scheduled For Friday

[picker19]

Someone asked the question earlier but it never got answered...what's the consensus on the tuner? Remove it or keep it? If "KEEP IT" is the answer, are people having success with it installed AFTER the patch is installed?

Just to add to what booker said here's a couple of screenshots from bcruise earlier that show the difference.

The first one shows a 32-team control offline CFM where drive goals are essentially inactive. Wilcox had a good game so he got +10 confidence from it. Now had Drive Goals been active and say you completed 8 of them he would have gotten an 18 point boost in confidence instead. And that's what the second one shows. He didn't have nearly as good of a game but he still negated any negative confidence from a loss for completing the drive goals.

For whatever reason they don't activate or pop up when playing an Offline CFM with 32-team control which essentially disables them. But if they do work in an Online CFM then this is going to continue to be a big issue.

I kept it and had it on the entire time. I have only had positive results with it in both CFM and Play Now and I've been more satisfied with gameplay both post tuner and post patch.

Well id be glad to report back from out 32 man league , but we are doing all 4 weeks of preseason , so may take 3 weeks before we are in week 5 or so of reg season before i could really get good stats on it to show.

Sorry for the confusion. The LT regression issue is a sim issue and from what I have been reading here if you set up 32 team control and set the other 31 teams to weekly progression it in effect counteracts the regression issue.

Was the roster update pushed back? It says I already have the latest rosters in game and I double checked the roster it had and there were no cuts done. There's no information about the roster update anywhere else on the forums that I can find. Does anyone know what's going on with the roster update that was supposed to be released today?

Does it counter the issue because the cpu uses their weekly points on PB to keep it up in the 70s? I can see how that would work but at the same time, if that is the case, it is wasted a lot of xp that is already hard to come by.

This is one of the fastest moving threads I can remember in a long time. So with that said, its very hard to keep up with what is "known" and what is "speculated".
