Injuries on or off

[niftyjets]

Do you guys play with injuries on or off?? If you play with them on do u keep the slider at the default level or do you adjust it?

On, I can't imaging them off, I play at the default slider spot and honestly haven't had all that many injuries.

Play with it on at 65. There aren't many injuries at the default setting however on average there are 3.3 injuries per team per game IRL so I bumped up the slider

Play how you want. Its a game, so its all about getting what you want out of it. I personally turn injuries off, because I want both teams to be at maximum strength when they play.

I turn them off for the first 3 weeks of pre season. Turn them on at 55 for all other weeks. Still playing with the #.

Turn them on, of course.

I do hesitate to bump them up to 65 (55-60 is probably better). Yes, injury rate will still be unrealistically low, but IRL a high proportion of injuries are linemen. With it over 60, it has been my experience that starting QBs and HBs become highly vulnerable, but because of the way Madden does in game injuries, OLs and (to a lesser extent) DLs still remain invulnerable, leading to an unrealistically high injury rate for QBs, HBs, and WRs.

Same here, just a game for fun, injuries off. The moment I saw QB Winston with a clutch rating, I threw realism out the window :-)

I agree with this, primarily because having injuries on in preseason can be disastrous. Unless I missed something, you can't waive injured players or IR them. So if your 4th string scrub DT gets hurt, you have to keep him on the roster and wind up cutting someone you wanted to keep.

Once reg season starts, good to go at whatever setting is comfortable.
