There is no reason to post a picture, I don't play 15 minute quarters.

So you're saying when you play a game an complete a drive goal no one gets a confidence boost? You don't see the little visual display on the screen?

No just xp. Only seen it one time in 4 games and one for time the next two where I got xp and conf. After game I go to game prep and look and only 2 times did my team say +1 do to drive goals. It was both on the defense side also. I will keep playing but something is different for sure. Sorry I said you hating, it's more like hard to believe they changed it. I agree. Not seeing it in the notes didn't even make me look for it but I was starting over anyways so I said might as well try it.

Anyone know why there is no in game drill on game prep for wr, te,and ol? I expected this to be patched. Now I am thinking this is by design since you can build up confidence with these positions. I never use confidence since it works its self out during the season. XP is pretty limited as it is so I see no reason not to have in game drills for every position.

That's a pretty significant change. I haven't had a chance to play post patch obviously but that would solve a lot of issues.

Just like they gave us the ability to raise confidence below 50 to keep the playing field more level in our CFM's. I have been playing 32 team control and it has been awesome. On the other hand I am also playing a solo offline fantasy CFM and drive goals are there and I have had basically zero issues in my enjoyment of the game. There is a loud minority about this perceived issue. I say perceived because the guys who designed and programed the game obviously think it is just fine as it is. They are not changing a major back of the box feature via a patch this year. The pros and cons of this new feature have been talked about ad nausem and i am sure the team see's the various thoughts and will take plenty into account for Madden 17. What I am saying is......it is not changing. So let's move on. Enjoy the game. It is really good. IF you can't overlook something like that....well, that's too bad. At least for myself....I can, I have and I am loving Madden 16.

The simple fix would be to put an on/off switch in settings. If you think uber confidence and drive goals are a fantastic idea then turn the switch on. If you want a more realistic game you can turn it off.

I have strong feeling, that patch #2 eliminates the tuning update. After patch many one handed and spectacular catches are again in the game as well as Peyton scrambling and Russel/Colin not...

That hasn't been my experience so far. If anything, I'm seeing even more aggressive play from defensive backs - especially safeties.
