NECTAR 2.0: ADVANCED TIPS
12/23/18

Advanced General Tips

Player Lock: This feature unlocks Position specific abilities.
Make a further impact specifically during gameplay.

Coaching Adjustments: More In-Depth Coaching Adjustments,
can be accessed via Play Call window during a match.

Auto Flip: On

Ball Carrier: Aggressive
Blocking: Aggressive
Deep Pass Catching: Aggressive
Intermediate Pass Catching: Aggressive

Play Ball-In-Air: Play Receiver
Cornerback Matchup: Preference
Option Defense: Aggressive
Pass Rush: Aggressive
Strip Ball: Balanced
Tackling: Aggressive


Advanced Offensive Tips

Three Quarters Passing: Step up into and outside the B-Gap/C-Gap then throw. (Touch Pass/Lobs)
This allows you to throw sideline reach catches and outside routes better.

Squaring-Off/Rocket Catches: Holding Strafe while in control of receiver throughout the play
This allows safer more reliable catching in sweet spots.

Motion Snap: Move receiver and hike the right after. This helps lower press effectiveness
Motion to other side of field for floods. Motion when nearest to a receiver
in the Slot receiver area for Flood Switch Concepts.

HB Dive: Double Dive: Pressing the Dive button and canceling it by performing any other move
This allows the Halfback to burst momentum up the middle.

Backshoulder Throw: Run a Corner Route with Slot WR or TE. Step up in the Pocket closes to LOS -
Touch-Pass with a Pass-Lead inside. Strafe + RAC/Posession Catch
This can also be done with any Double-Move thrown the same way on the first move.

Traffic Lateral: Performed by pressing the Lateral button when catching in heavy traffic
This allows a second-level chance of timing and helps prevent triple aggression turnovers.

B&R Options: Any Block & Release route, simply scramble right behind it.
This allows a pressure check and makeshift option after the snap of the ball

RAC Arm: Run a Drag Route and perform a RAC Catch followed by a Stiff Arm.
*Over 90 Precision Stiff Arm

Redzone Lob: Slot Receiver on Fade. 3-Step Drop. Throw Lob L/R Directionally from the Left or Right Hash Mark
Strafe + RAC/Possession Catch > Secure Ball

Rollout Bullets: Rollout to L/R Hash Mark - Throw a bullet pass with Pass Lead Down and Outside to a Possession Catch.

Pump Fake Pressure: If you notice a pressure starting to come through or off the edge.
Throw a pump fake to a receiver that direction. This will give you a little extra time to make a throw right after.

Secure Trucking: With any run play; Use Trucking + Secure Ball while near an isolated blocker.
This helps increase the chances of broken tackles with blocking assistance. Effective @ Goal-Line also.

Returns: Run a Wheel Route after catching the ball. Accelerate after 10 Yards downfield.



Advanced Defensive Tips:

Bait and Lurk: Usering the FS or MLB.

Chuck and Press: User CB and roll the right joystick to shut a Star Player out in a press match.

Anchor Gap: User DT and Time a Power Move - This should breakdown the A-Gap integrity
and allow inside blitzes to be effective in gameplan.

Edge Rushing: User DE and time a Finesse Move off the edge combined with a Reach Tackle.
Can also Reach Tackle if stuck on a block, Power Move HB and Reach Tackle the QB from block if possible.

Lay the Lumber: Back Off Coverage, Spread DL, Spread LB, and Play Sticks.
This allows the most Hit Sticks. Turnover Rate. Ahead by 2 Scores.

Spectacular Swat: Play Receiver + Dive > Swat Ball - redeem coverage that lost a couple of steps.

Strip Swat: Reach Tackle >+ Strip Ball. This will attempt to swat the ball into a recovering fumble.

Strip Chuck: Conservative Tackle >+ Strip Ball

Soft Coverage: Press > Shade: Over the Top - Spread DL, Crash Inside - Spotlight TE
This is useful for figuring out an opponents gameplan or tendencies.

Power Shoulder: Conservative Tackle >+ Hit Stick Up - Strafe to square up beforehand if you need to.
This is useful against players upright during contact, bigger players, or shoulder isn't fully lowered.

Power Shoulder Strip: Conservative Tackle >+ Hit Stick Up > Conservative Tackle > Strip Ball

Air Stick: While the receiver is in air. Play Receiver >+ Hit Stick Up at right time.

Power Tackle: Dive > Conservative Tackle or Conservative Tackle > Hit Stick Down

Hybrid Sinks: Press > Over the Top
Pistol - Spy FS, SS - Man Up on RB.
Run: FS - Man Up on Slot WR, SS - Man Up on RB
Empty: FS+SS - Man Up on Slot Receivers
Redzone: Spy FS, SS - Man Up on TE

Nectar 2.5c (Triggerless/Zero Canned Animations)


QB Accuracy: 18 (formerly 21)
helps to tone end of season stats under 5000; 60-70%

Tackling: 20 (formerly 11)
allows multiple reactions for special abilities, instead of just tackle or miss.
less big plays, LB 100~ season

WR Catching: 22 (formerly 40)
Triggerless catches, no animations, RAC catches are real-time movement as adjusted, etc

Speed Threshold: 50 (formerly 0)
allows linebackers to have a little chance lined up on receivers
less big plays, less stress on verticals, etc

Penalties all Default except
Defensive Holding: 53
Roughing the Passer: 45
Defensive Pass Interference: 70

Sim Stats: Offline are no longer inflated

@1:40
No canned outcomes on special abilities,
keep your eyes peeled to react to real-time adjustments.

@0:45
Real Time RAC's - adjust to the throw without 'lock-in'

Catches don't ever have a 'locked-in' moment, timing and positioning is everything.

Tackles are more abstract and don't feel canned or locked-in at any moment.

@0:20
Wrap tackles(reached) can be shifted in momentum if not brought down.

@1:25
Slightly bad throws make a difference.

Pass-Leading is moderately viable for 80+, Viable 85+, Surethrow 90+

QB Ratings more prevelant - almost expect 0-0 with 60ovr QB's in terms of passing

Safeties more involved in Run stopping and interaction up the middle also.

Supersim is now typically - 300 yards Passing, 100 Yards Rushing ~

50/50 med/deep balls feel a lot riskier/mysterious in near or even match ups

Pass Interference can now be drawn realistically in more and certain situations
ie: Slot Streaks thrown at certain times or aggressive responses

@1:34
Tipped catches are now more dynamic and don't always float.
Based on catch timing and ball position; Throw and Catch combination.

Fumbles are real-time and aren't a 'pop-out' type of moment -
more RB fall back on top of ball situations.

@1:27
OL/DL Interaction improved - Micro detail interaction in weight/momentum -
Expect sometimes 2-3 engages/disengages before a RB even crosses the LOS.
Blitzes make a big dynamic difference

2.6 Update
01-29-19

QB Scrambling improved - Real-time: Micro Scrambling
CPU Scrambling logic improved.
QB Pocket Movement: Micro Movement.
Throw on the Run logic - Precision opposite of Run Direction's Momentum

Acceleration revamped; Buffed

Cameras: Focals Increased to achieve the most detail during gameplay.
This helps improve AA, Lighting, Overall Detail and Distance Preservation.

QB Accuracy: 19 (Formerly 18)
this helps slightly differentiate intermediate and top QB's
4500~ AVG - occasionally/rarely breaking 5000; 60-70%

WR Catching: 24 (Formerly 22)
this helps slightly differentiate intermediate and top receivers
65-85% catch ratio for top receivers

Tackling: 22 (formerly 20)
this helps fluctuate tackles from the secondary
top 5 - solo tackles hover slightly above 100
Top sacks - 15~ occassionally 20 top 1

Interceptions: 29 (formerly 23)
This is raised to accomodate Chicago and Miami this season (27/21Ints)
23 avg'd a top of 16Ints

Fumbles: 3 (formerly 7)
7 avg'd 4-8 fumbles - 10-14 avg'd a season

//this together averages 25-35 Takeaways on avg a season.

Fatigue: 50 (Formerly 25)
this helps fluctuate momentum of No-Huddle

FG Power: 51
FG Accuracy: 45
Punt Power: 51
Punt Accuracy: 45
Kickoff Power: 51
*this allows offset kicking
ie: aiming kick one direction and compensating the other way on the kick meter

Prereq 41419 Update

Complete Movement and Ability Overhaul

Hit-the-Hole Running Improvements

Added walk speed of 3mph~ (x-25%~ joystick tilt)
Added jog speed of 6mph~ (25-50%~ joystick tilt)

40+ Pass Interference Distance Markers
placed in over 120 yards - formerly 6/6.

Nectar 3.1c Prereq 41619 Update

Zone Coverage Overhaul

Cover 3, 4, and 6
based on Richard Sherman based offset style logics

Cover 2, Sink, and 9
based on Patrick Peterson based offset style logics

-1 on 1 Coverage Man/Zone improved by 20%
-Press Coverage Man/Zone improved by 20%
-1 on 1 Catching Man/Zone improved by 20%
-Coverage Cut Reactions improved by 20%
-WR SuperWin Chances Removed

Man Coverage Overhaul

Shadings/Reactions calibrated to give default shade / shades the best chance at guarding everything -
without blown coverage to something else.

More emphasis on finding a receiver open by very small margins more than the next -
rather than whos wide open. Less emphasis on relying on ball knockout, swat to mask coverage.

The following plays

Slants/Drags - Press Improved

Levels Y Corners
Double China
Cross Drag
Bunch Trail
Verticals w/ Cross
PA Crossers
Crossers
Bunch Verts
Fk Screen Wheel
Shake Routes
Stick
Slants
Drags
etc


Drags lowered to 0.0001 from LOS (as low as the routes can go)
Stressed against Trey, Bunch, 5 Wide, Tight, Spread, etc
while using off-coverage in Big Nickel, Nickel, Base, 46(non-speed pckg), etc

note: you will need at least 70ovr to start having a chance at intermediate routes. non-intermediate routes not stressed as much below 70 though.

example: 70ovr Man Coverage Linebacker in Nickel guarding WR starts having a chance to guard on intermediate routes though.

Nectar 3.2 Tournament Edition

Safety Logic Overhaul - All zone coverages now leverage and match

General Movement - Improved; ex: Now able to zig zag between O-Line

Increased Top Acceleration Speed by 23% - to match 28mph Speed @ 100 rating
Scaled the rest of movements accordingly

This allows powerbacks to factor in more things, specifically wrap tackle animations

All Footstep Balances Decreased by 50% - 1-2 formerly 2-4
This helps with chain reaction of collision factors

Trucking Base Break Tackle Chance - Increased by 20%

Stiff Arm distance increased to 1.4

Lowered all impact times for special abilities to 0.13
This helps to add more window possibility of sequence windows and dynamics

CPU Ballcarrier Logics Improved
CPU Hitstick Logics Improved

Momentum/Impacts increased and further improved

Pile Impacts - lowered to 0.13 from 0.85

Knockout Ball Max Time Held - Lowered to 0.13 from 0.3 - Knockout Ball increased to 1.95
This helps with triggering a lot more Conservative Quick High Catches - Rather than Spec Catches
Removes auto knockout catches and adds more sequences and chains to interactions

Coverball Time - lowered to 0.13 from 0.29

Playaction Rating - now factored 70-99, formerly 90-99

Conservative Tackles - Whiff Times lowered to 0.13 from 0.2 / Heatsink 0.13 from 0.5

Increase Grab Durations to 1.95 from 0.2
Decreased Grab Attempt Duration to 0.13 from 0.2 -
This helps with adding more tackle dynamics - including Body Slam tackles

All Elite Ratings - begin and factor at 88 Rating

Kickoff Length Lowered by 15% - To increase Returns, CPU Return frequency
-Doubled sway/wobble to the UI
-Kick Speed Meter 15% Faster
-Overkick Notch reduced to 0.1 from 0.25

added crowd intensity to 70,000, previously 350.

2 New Starter Playbooks

Scorpion94818
(RunHeavy/Clock/1RedzoneWR/2RouteRunners)

In this playbook we will attack defenses just as the playbook is named - like a scorpion.
Complimenting HB Stings and 94's to help Redzone Threats drive Y Routes over the top 1 on 1.
Also 818 ZoneRun Dives to attack the A-Gap at 45 angles; with 2 receivers stacked stacked to the sidelines -
to force more zone thus allowing more exposure to dives. Again always keeping both man and zone unbalanced;
with splashes of Counter and Misdirection.


ClockworkPoints (Modern Hybrid Defense)
Sub LB Spots with Safeties as needed

4-3 Under - 2 Man Under, Cover 6, Cover 4
Priority: Conservative

Opponent is down by 1-9 points.
We want to try and force the opponent to run the ball -
to further work the clock against themselves or a chance at a stop/turnover
and we need to figure out what the opponent is prepared to do in the air -
We can play 2 man under and complicate a west coast attack -
or confuse progressions with cover 6 by being ready for vertical/intermediate attacks -
involving man-switch routes, double move routes, etc

3-4 Even - Zone Blitz, Cover 1(Robber Press)
Priority: Balanced

Tied Game.
We need to figure out what the opponent is more comfortable/able at doing at this point.
Conservative Run(Cover1), Aggressive Pass(Zone Blitz)
We want to try and force as many attempts with minimal/maximum risk.
We can first and foremost go to Cover 9 showing 2 allowing us to shell off runs -
conservatively like a tampa 2 approach.

3-4 Over Ed - Man Blitz, Cover 2, Cover 3
Priority: Aggressive

If the opponent gets ahead by 2-9 points we have to get a turnover or 3-and-out
by stuffing the run with man blitzes, taking away reads with exotic cover 2 looks presnap, -
and keeping coverage on checkdowns.
We can help make the opponent reconsider their gameplan through entirety -
by not letting up conservatively and keeping them off balance with progression reads.

Dime 2-3-6 - Cover 9 Show 2, Cover 1(Robber Show 2), Cover 2 Sink, Prowl 3 Seam
Priority: Balanced

If the opponent goes up by 10 points, we need to bait the run and contain it -
while making sure they pay the price at maximum chance if they do pass.
Cover 9 and Cover 1 both showing 2 - helps us shape the defense to defend the run better outside.
Congest the inside with manual placements/looks presnap.
Prowl Slant 3 Seam(Shade Outside) further helps make harder reads vertically if their rungame falls short on a drive.
While Cover 2 Sink(Shade Inside) with manual movements during sink can cause difficult to make passes to the outside.

Madden 20 Wishlist/Focus Points

Besides the things accomplished by the modding this year so far

-Modding Community
Simply put - the game needs its own opensource of Gameface, Stadium Editing, Team Editing,
Playbook Editing, Player Editing, and Gear Editing especially with dedication to the PC community -
this helps self-sustain the community itself.

-Cross-Compatible Playable

-League/Franchise/11 vs 11 Squads/MUT/News/Replays/Combines/Training Camps/Awards/Longshot

Basically, but not basically and in that order - very detailed endless depth to things.

I for one and all start to believe in company names even before releases that have undergone this route
Similar to MUT - they're able to put back in a lot more resources with this route and its all financially optional
to further support the amount of depth to things.

An integration of all these things combined into real-time MMO/RPG - Frequently able to see and interact with one another
whether it be mic'd up - or chat bubbles in Modes or Preplay Snap

League needs to be more ready to jump into more quickly and straight to the point what type of league -
whether Owner, Coach, Off Coord, Def Coord, or Player and have enough long-time dynamic immersion
to stay dedicated to each.

-Owner/Coach/Off Coord/Def Coord/Player
The difference and depth to all five of these

Franchise, NCAA Story Mode, Longshot Story Mode
all with Single Player Depth but always encouraging real-time online integrations
to let personal productions out of these; jump straight into the online mix from one to the next
ex: 0-59OVR Longshot Mode, 60-75 NCAA Story Mode, 71-75 NFL Franchise.

and able to branch off from this - PVP: Franchise / RPG: International(Relocation) 8-160 Team League /
RPGPVP: 11vs11 Squads / RPGPVP: MUT

-Improved Replays - All highlights involved in News Logics including simmed games, etc
-Half-Times During Games all viewable for all weekly games.
-Awards feel more special - whether its a PVP, RPG, or PVE Title.
-Training Camps - Endless integration of things similar to MUT Abilties / Chemistries but for all modes.
-Combine Results: a leaderboard type of thing, aside from normal draft and prospecting.
-Classic RPG Classes for 11 vs 11 Squads but not limited to - Also for Owners,Coach,O-Coord,D-Coord, - not just players.
this gives more dynamic and specific discussion/cross-interaction to further find more players.

Gameplay/User Gameplay/PVP - While all of that covers PVEPVPRPG wrapped up together
The most important factor is certainly PVP Competitive User Gameplay and Difficulty -
the bar needs to be raised much higher - the term 'House Rules' and things similar
should never even be considered a gimp - players should be thriving schematically
with customization depth to allow not only a true intense Pvp Ladder
but up to standards realistically and user-skill wise to be considered a 'Simulator'
to be up to par with and respectively always setting the bar.

There’s a lot of “Stick Skill” notations so I’m assuming this is geared more towards H2H play and not Hum vs AI?

2nd, how does these edits mesh with the Ratings mechanism (0-99 scale) so that both higher and lower levels are balanced into the gameplay experience equally?
- ie will draft classes etc have to reworked to the ratings levels tested on for the above to work properly?

Both.
Theres a lot of adjustments on the AI itself.

Nah they wouldn't have to be reworked.
There is data values for rating differential effectiveness also.

Let me know how it goes.

Thank you sir, the game won't launch from the manager (opens for a sec then closes) any chance I could launch this from frosty editor?
