SOOOOOOO im guessing that the IR issue is still an issue in CFM. Unless you guys have checked this. Anyone?

Of course, do not misunderstand me. Ten seconds was not enough with making subs. I went through the same problems. Maybe I could sub one position and have time to call a play that was on the first page of plays. That is if I did it perfectly without "overshooting" anything.

The time was not enough.

In the long-term, as Madden becomes a more intelligent game with the intention of teaching real football, I hope Madden guts the archaic "depth chart" interface out of the game and creates a more robust system for filling formations and fronts from a personnel package based perspective.

That's not a reasonable thing to patch into the game, however. For now, having the extra time for me to manipulate the in-game formation subs interface to get the desired players where I want them is a reasonable compromise.

AI QBs hold on to the ball far too long which results in breaking the sack record every year.

In online CFM against other users this is not an issue.

I would say offline becomes unusable without a fix for the Cam Newton intro fix.

Doesn't it delete all offline files, or no?

What's the issue, specifically? I've had zero issues with injured reserve working properly with respect to freeing up salary cap and roster space in my CFM and I've IR-returned DeMarco Murray so that works too.

Ok, so it's specifically playing against the CPU, not online vs. offline. I had a one user only "online" CFM and I wanted to start and offline cfm since my ps plus expired. There should be no difference between the two now, right?

I downloaded the update and installed it yet nothing changed? Is it working for everyone else?
 
# 169 newgeneration11 @ 10/07/14 03:11 PM
Do i have to play with the "official roster" to get signature throwing styles in the game? i want to use my old custom roster.

Also, does anyone know if Created Players confidence is still Zero when you take them into offline CFM?
 
# 170 TomBo24 @ 10/07/14 03:11 PM
Question for Xbox One players: Are you supposed to be prompted for the new update or does it just automatically update? I wasn't prompted for anything so I'm not sure if I got it.
 
# 171 Raindragon @ 10/07/14 03:12 PM
CM,The pre existing injuries that don't carry over when you start a CFM, same issue as last year with that one. I had heard it was a known issue, looking at the forums and what not. It also has the same 2 guys on IR with no length attached to them.

Correct.

Now if EA makes changes in the future online CFM may see them much sooner.

- Improved defensive adaptive AI



^^^^ Especially love these changes.....Also being able to call a defensive play without waiting for the offense to choose a play first, is big...

I went to all default sliders on the All-Pro setting, and already feel a difference - Improved defensive adaptive AI... very nice....

I have been following all the threads around here and Madden 15 was a great game with 3 or 4 issues.

1-Sims Stats
2-Owner Mode funds
3-CPU QB taking sacks (A LOT, to the point that killed many drives for them)
4-QB %

These were the most critics.

1.-Fixed (we can argue that they are not perfect, but they are fixed it.
2.-Not fixed. Makes owner mode impossible to play with bad or average teams.
3.-Not fixed. QB are still taking the sacks, killing CPU drives and having your whole DL on the Pro bowl.
4-Fix it (kinda).

2 out of 4.

The rest of the fixes, to me are cosmetic or simple bugs that doesn`t affect the overall performance of the game.

I`m disappointed. Specially since EA was aware of all these 4 issues. VERY AWARE.

No, it fixed signature for my custom roster, and in my case, a created quarterback. QB style depends on what you have it set for in player editor.

Did it fix Peyton Manning's signature throwing style for you?
 
# 178 Poke @ 10/07/14 03:18 PM
For those who don't mind changing the QB's traits to throw ball away : yes and sense pressure: paranoid it helps tremendously with the AI. I did it for all teams and FA's. If anyone is interested and don't want to do it themselves I can upload my roster file if you like. Happy Gaming!

I will have to do this. What would you do when you face a QB rookie on year 2? any workaround for that?
