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

[CleveCluby]

HEY ROADMAN.. Good to see you again. Like everyone else, been experimenting with sliders and rosters but getting ready to start my Franchise.. Just a simple question.. I have not DL the tuner, But from my understanding, the TUNER only affects game play ONLINE and has no affect at all on CFM OFFLINE game play.. I never play OL, so I am assuming the tuner is not a necessity for me. Would that be correct. ? Will be using A&S sliders with some adjustments for my personal taste..and Thomasdraft rosters and as always so called Coach mode. I can live with most of the the issues but the one thing I really hate is the FG issue.. CPU never misses and takes the thrill out of a close game for me. So I adjusted all the Kickers kick *** from the best being 70 and the worst being 59. Now i see missed FG's.. yet some have been made from 50 yds. I have seen a 34 yd miss juust to the left. I don't know how it will affect sim stats, But don't really care. Just want to see a miss now and then in my played games. Now working on Punters power and acc. have seen some pretty cool stuff, not every punt bounces through the end zone. Again these are just for my personal type of play.. And it is again good to see you still interested and posting after all these years. And I am still loving the show.

so what do i need to do to get a good franchise? so far through skimming I've seen the following being suggested

set control to all 32 teams
set CPU progression to weekly
delete tuner

is that accurate?

anything else?

The rookies were not touched, it was the decision of the developer to raise the speed of the older CB's.

AND bring Madden 16 to the fire mountain of mordar. Can't forget that, and when things go wrong, just blame the Patriots for the mishap...seems the legit way to operate.

I understand. I'm just saying that raising the speed of some older CB's doesnt solve the issue of the generated rookies being overpowered when it comes to SPD, possibly the most important attribute in the league.

Odell Beckham is 91SPD 90ACC. I can draft about 15 rookies each season who blow him away.

I'm not roadman, but I can answer this. The tuning update effects gameplay as a whole, both online and offline.

And I get that also, all I am saying is the developer thought this was the best decision going forward for this issue.

We'll see if there are other decisions in the near future.

Maybe in those categories only, but it's hard to find a rookie that has his catching attributes out the gate.
