The AI is breaking tackles like it NCAA/Madden11!!

[PantherBeast_OS]

I don't know if anyone has notice. But since I been playing on AA or above in the past few days. It seems no matter how much I try. But the AI seems to break tackles like is NCAA/Madden11 all over again. But yet if my WRs or RBs get hit or tackle the least bit they go down to the ground without trying to break away for a long run or something. I understand what NCAA and Madden12 Dev team is trying to do with the tackling system and physics engine this year. But when the AI seems to break tackles like is was last year version and the new tackling system doesn't have no affect half the time. What is the point of putting it in. I have a problem with this somewhat. I love the game and it's good. But when the AI does this stuff half the time and you can't. It gets me mad sometime. If I get affect by the new system so should the AI. The AI shouldn't be allowed to just break off 3-4 tackles and run for 60-70 yards with ease. While you struggle to get a few yards.

Turn CPU tackling down then. In past games I have my HUM/CPU tackling around 30, because generally in a real game you're more likely to miss a tackle than make one.

It's like there is a lack of realistic broken tackle animations - added to the fact that defenders seem to pursue poorly once someone has made contact with the ball carrier. Which leads to long runs that shouldn't have happened b/c the carrier should have been tackled, slowed significantly - isntead of being back up to full speed immediately

i don't completely agree with the OP, I've seen cpu break some tackles, but I also have realized to that you have to rely on the right stick with the turning and such. do that when you running instead of straight up you'll break more tackles especially in tight quarters.

In my opinion the way you see the cpu run is the way you have to approach running also, plus tweaking the human runningback ability to 60 opens up hum rushing especially with jukes and break tackles.

Sorry, but I am complete disagreement with the OP here

I can agree and disagree.

Depends on whether or not your RB or defender is an impact player and at what point the game is.

This has an effect as well.
Don't know about everyone else, but I enjoy when the CPU star players do well against me. Just like when they do well for me against the CPU.
There's times I ask how the hell did I break that tackle, but I'll take it.

[BadAssHskr]

can't agree either.
to many times we get focused on 1 thing, and totally miss the big picture.

I disagree. The game feels and plays great. Yes there are going to be broken tackles and sometimes you will get wrapped up. I am not seeing ansd feeling like it is out of control.

Fatigue, ratings and user timing will also come into play, also making adjustments to your gameplan (aggressive, conservative etc) can effect tackles.

Also how good of a RB are you on the sticks? Jukes, cut backs and momentum seem to really matter.

Loving this game.
