For those who have played, does the cpu still all out blitz far too often?

Down from 30 the previous season. 3 over 2,000 yards. LEADER IN YARDS: Steven Jackson 2,180 LEADER IN TDS: Adrian Peterson 22 The touchdowns are pretty good. But the yards have gotten up there. It doesnt seem like a gamekiller. And may be able to be tweaked with coaching philosophies if you control all 32 teams. I heard that there was a glaring problem with controlling all 32 teams though. Cant remember it though. Im gona do a 4th and 5th season then hang it up and post all stats.

I think only 5-6 guys over 2000 in all 5 years. The YPC is really the only thing that gets crazy. Other than that, its playable.

Make us wait months for patches that improve certain areas but make others uselss. ITS GARBAGE. I also like how age has no effect on a RBs skill. LT is 37 years old in the in chise i simmed and hes still goin 1500 strong. PLEASE. My final impression is what it has always been. EA doesnt watch enough football to know how to make a decent football game. How Looman can sit there and see all the RBs go over 1000 yards and have two or three of the break Dickersons single season rushing record ever year and then allow all this to be in the game is trash. The patch made defense play a little better. And ended the twitchy running. But it destroyed offline franchise. I waited and waited and waited for this patch to start a new frachise, only to be fooled by EA AGAIN. *So please forgive me moderator*s for being pissed off and going off subject a bit, but sometimes in life certain things have to be said. People have to stop babying EA and let the hardcore people that fill their pockets be heard.

How did you go from "Its not too insane" and "It's not a gamekiller" and "Not too unrealistic" to "they destroyed offline franchise!"

And you say 2 or 3 break Dickerson's record every year when in your simmed seasons only 5-6 topped 2000?

Let's not go overboard here guys. People want impressions that are real, not things that somehow get worse in your mind. Please don't overexaggerate these problems. Some people aren't reading the whole thread and will see these last few posts blowing everything out of proportion, having not read earlier posts when the same people were saying "it's not so bad."

thanks for answering man.

One more question if I may, have you simmed a season? If so, have the # of injuries been toned down a bit?

Ok...that was two questions....

I haven't simmed a 'chise yet. Just wanna get a feel for the game now post patch.

# 167 Mike Lowe @ 12/04/09 03:03 PM

FWIW, I simmed another season with DB's real stats sliders and it gave me the same problems with rushing stats. Tons of guys 1000+, a few 2000+ (2444 led the league geeeez!) and high averages per rush.

I'm guessing the guy who mentioned sliders would fix things is referring to coaching sliders? Haven't tried that.

# 168 Danimal @ 12/04/09 03:04 PM

It's been asked nicely at least twice if not 3 times to keep this to impressions or questions. I just gave out several warnings since people can't seem to follow that simple request. From now on it won't be warnings.

I'm seeing a few, but my issue is that i started the game with backtrack on, and the backtrack seems to cut the replays down to a second. You see the hike of the ball then its back to the live action with backtrack countdown.

How many of you have reset your sliders to default after the patch? That could possibly skew your results if you aren't.

First thing i did was put everything back to default all-pro. Didn't do anything with franchise yet.

No.

It's an impressions thread. Post your impressions. If people don't want to read 'em, they can skip 'em.

But that back and forth garbage that went on the first 10 pages isn't going to fly again.

I was talking gameplay.

# 175 LionsFanNJ @ 12/04/09 03:34 PM

Just had a new animation trigger. Cutler was throwing a deep corner route to Iglesias who was wide open (THANKS LIONS DB's!). Ko Simpson closes in and arrives the same time as the ball, he pulls the receivers arm down as his momentum swings his lower body around and pulls the reciever back with him. Best way i can descibe it is a pendulum effect with Simpson's lower body as he hits Iglesias. Pass was incomplete.

But you said... whatever. So now we discuss here about simmed franchise rushing stats? Sounds good to me.

We have to choose between those two options? Either crazy high or crazy low? I think the guy was just asking for
something actually accurate and normal.

they whined for the wrong thing....its not the YPC they should have been concerned with...its the rushing ATTEMPTS....the NFL now is more of a two back league...with the exception of a few guys...most of the rushing load is split between 2 guys...about 65/35....

Look at the stats from 2008:

Brandon Jacobs/Derrick Ward carries split: 219/182
DeAngelo Williams/Jonathan Stewart carries split: 273/184
Chris Johnson/LenDale White carries split: 251/200

and the list goes on and on....

I mean be serious....how the heck are they supposed to write code to make BACKUPS YPC better...you would have to implement an entire new hidden attribute or something...that would take forever to get implemented...

The bottom line is, I'm not saying everyone is this way, but most people have no idea....absolutely no clue how difficult it is...to get what they are asking for

# 179 LionsFanNJ @ 12/04/09 04:02 PM

Ok i'm really either going to have to up the difficulty, or maybe its because i was running plays to test the pursuits and stuff. But i broke 4 records this last game.lol

Passing yards and TD's Receiving yards and receiving TD's in a game. Felt good because it was the stupid Bears though. If anything i think the coverage of the flats might have made passing easier somehow, again one game is not an indicator.

just going to random vs random game next.

# 180 Bumble14 @ 12/04/09 04:04 PM

How's the wildcat working now? I have heard from some that the extra step that was added to the rb animation is making running the formation difficult. Can anyone confirm?

Thanks.
