Madden NFL 17 Tuning Update Available Now - Reduces Strip Fumbles

[IUxHOOSIERS]

I don't know if it's because I play online, but I haven't noticed strip fumbles all that much. As for just fumbles, I think they've been fine so far. There's always going to be people who say there are too many fumbles or too few of them, but I think they've been fine so far.

Well that's also good news. I play only cpu vs cpu so we'll see how the testing goes from multiple people.

My QB has fumbled a few times but it just seemed like good timing, I got smashed as I started to pass and as my arm was going back the ball popped out. And then I have had the CPU QB fumble once. Nothing has seemed out of place as of yet.

I think this is (or was) a ratings issue. The highest rated QB CAR rating is Newton, 83. He has fumbled 32 times in 784 total ball "carry" attempts (career sacks plus rush attempts). That is 4% fumble rate. Or a 96 CAR rating (assuming the rating is on a true 0-100% scale, not so sure there).

Using the same fumble % logic, Brees 12%, or 88; M.Ryan 10%, or 90; E.Manning 17%, or 83. In-game, in order they are 62, 67, and 51. If the ratings gurus here know any different or better, correct me. But taking the ratings at face value, they are way off.

I can't help but cringe when they say "tuning" update. Always hope for the best but now we have to see all the effects, intended and unintended.

I liked the amount of fumbles that were happening. Madden 16 had almost no fumbles..

Getting manual or cpu sacks easier or harder now?

If your playing an offline CFM, do you have to reset for this tuning to work?

Good change. I saw a few too many of them just in PLAY NOW games against the CPU.
