Why so many Broken Tackles

i have noticed that no matter what slider set i use on here that there are way too many broken tackles in this game. I look to get the most realistic gameplay as possible in madden as possible , but not matter what slider set i use the CPU seems to get way too many broken tackles. anybody else feel the same way? post your thoughts and ideas on how to tame this down

Re: Why so many Broken Tackles

I'm VERY curious as to why this hasn't been more of a topic of discussion...

Since the latest patch, the CPU on ANY setting above zero leads to an absurd amount of broken tackles...

Starters should have a few per game, not a few per play...

Re: Why so many Broken Tackles

I noticed this also, it usually takes about 2-3 guys to tackle someone, and it had taken 5 a few times, which is beyond ridiculous.

Re: Why so many Broken Tackles

I haven't had any issues with broken tackles in my CCM. I've got my Tackling at 50 and the CPU Break Tackle at 95 and their RB's consistently break about 3-4 a game.

Re: Why so many Broken Tackles

I've seen the same. Even middling RB's like Pierre Thomas keep bouncing off two or three direct hits from my LBs. I'm getting at least two broken/bounced off tackles on probably nine out of ten running plays. Hell, even some QBs I've given a DIRECT hit to from a full speed DE just roll off of it like they're getting tackled by a ten year old.

And yet my RB gets tackled by his own linemen...

Re: Why so many Broken Tackles

Is the problem sliderable (possible to correct with a slider adjustment)?

Online or offline?

What level?

Thanks!

I'll be curious to see what Deuce comes back with...

As far as my experience:

I only see it disappear with the CPU BTK set to 0...with the USER TAK set at zero, you see a few "brick wall" tackles, where the CPU player gets touched or glanced at and he falls down...

It's the only trade off I have got so far...

Low TRK guys like Ahmad Bradshaw were "Heisman-ing" their way to the end zone with it set on 1, with a USER TAK of 10...

So, I'm personally having a hard time to get the "physics" of tackling to look and work good since the patch...

Hopefully, there's some good input on this to come!

I remember Michael Vick breaking off two tackles at once in my CCM game for a TD.
