I didn`t try it yet. At work. But i will when i get home. i believe it will be a placebo but i have no other thing to try. I really want to start my CFM, but i wont tolerate the crazy amount of sacks i get right now.

# 223 tyberious4now @ 10/07/14 03:54 PM

Sacks are not an issue for me right now I have cpu PB @ 85...CPU rush has improved alot...

QB decision are better even on screen's. .So far so good!!

# 224 friscob @ 10/07/14 03:58 PM

Fixing the auto defensive play call makes me really happy. Would happen multiple times per game

And im sure its been asked, but are cfm's updated with this or does it require a restart?

# 225 LowerWolf @ 10/07/14 04:10 PM

FWIW, on M25, I racked up sacks and interceptions on All-Madden and All-Pro. I finally gave Pro a shot and the number of sacks and interceptions actually dropped. Go figure.

I haven't played enough to make a definitive conclusion on M15, but so far I do seem to get more sacks/picks on the higher levels. So Pro may be worth a shot if you're at wits end.

# 226 orion523 @ 10/07/14 04:18 PM

How could they not fix the biggest game breaking issue? The sacks make the CPU completely non competitive on any level, with any sliders, with any lousy team. They have no chance to put a drive together because any time they come under pressure,it's an automatic sack, drive over. And it's not like I'm this Madden wizard, I stink, haven't played the game consistently for 10 years. Of course I was a dope and bought it digitally.....

# 227 teeteegardner @ 10/07/14 04:19 PM

wait so offline CFM isnt fixed?? lol... oh boy..

# 228 RogueHominid @ 10/07/14 04:20 PM

How do you know for PS4 if the patch got downloaded? When I fired up the game, I got the very small update in the DL menu, but not the larger patch. I want to make sure it's there before starting an offline CFM.

# 229 KingV2k3 @ 10/07/14 04:22 PM

Well, we're 250+ posts so far, and I've yet to read anything that is going to inspire me to drop that 5 hundo (PS4 and M15) that's been burning a hole in my pocket since late August...

Shame really, since I'm probably one of the more loyal customers / apologists / slider-holic, workaround guys this tile has had for over a decade...

Highlight Madden 15 on the XMB and press options. Then select Information from the slide-in menu. If you have the patch installed, it should say "Last updated 10/7/14". The version number is 1.03.

# 231 Gronk4M13 @ 10/07/14 04:23 PM

How can you tell if the patch downloaded/how do you download the patch?

This is exactly my thought.
I still can`t believe EA didn`t fix it.

Also not only when they get rushed, sometimes they have like 3 or 4 sec to throw and they start moving all over the pocket and get the sack. CPU QB is Dumb when is trying to avoid the sack.

If they call a Curls and you call a Cover2 type of play is A AUTOMATIC SACK. Same with Hail mary vs cover 4. QB won`t throw the ball at all.

Many sacks come inside the red-zone because of this.

I think it's worth it. Just my opinion but it's much better than last gen. Of course people will complain, but there is no comparison between this gen and last. Also, if your a basketball fan they just released a pretty good game today too.

I believe that if you have not already downloaded the patch, you will be prompted when you start the game.

# 235 ramspeedkill @ 10/07/14 04:30 PM

so i guess we need to re-start offline?

# 236 British Bronco @ 10/07/14 04:32 PM

So gutted right now at the patch's failure to fix the sack issue. And also now depressed that EA have allegedly looked at this and found no problem. Which means this game, which for me is so fine in so many other ways, is effectively broken.

Unreal. How many people have to post here that it is an issue for them to notice?

I just played 3 straight games with the new patch at All-Pro level - Denver vs San Diego. I had CPU pass block at 100. I even put Hum Pass Coverage at 0 just to try and avoid as many coverage sacks as possible. I only blitz on 1 in 6 plays (below the NFL average). I took control of Terrance Knighton every down and delibrately made no effort to sack the QB at all.

Yet I sacked Phillip Rivers, who is a damn fine QB, 21 times in 3 games. 7 a game on average. That's insane. Its a game killer. The Denver D in Madden is good - but not that good. Sacks should be hard to get and fun when you get them. Right now there is no challenge and its making the game insanely easy.

In those games I also tried the alleged community fixes (which I believe to be placebo) i.e IG at 0 and Defensive Visuals at Full. Good luck to those who found those work. But there is no logical in game programmable reason for them to change the fundamental problem that most of us can see straight away which is the AI QB's inability to throw away the ball under pressure.

And if EA can't see there is a problem than I fear for the franchise moving forward. I guess we'll see the same thing in Madden 16.

Rant over. I'll still keep trying sliders because I want to save this game from the dustbin its currently heading into. I'll also try Pro level as advised above. But I fear this will all be to no avail.

I don't doubt it's better than last gen, simply because M25 was my least favorite of the PS3 gen iterations...

Yeah, I love NBA2k and The Show, so I will upgrade eventually, but I was hoping that my primary gaming interest (football sims) would be satiated by M15, as opposed to continuing to have to rely on NCAA 14...

Oh well!

# 239 Connolly22 @ 10/07/14 04:41 PM

This is ****ing pathetic. If they didn't fix sacks, what did they fix? I have NO issues with this game other than sacks. How do you take a look at the problems this game has and NOT see sacks. What the **** have they been doing for the past month? This is pathetic. I'm selling madden to gamestop so somebody else can enjoy it without giving EA a dime. I'm picking up nba 2k 15 with the trade in.

your post is to place it in the wall. It`s exactly how i feel and what i experienced.

I really want to save this game, but this sacks issue make things really hard for me.
