This might be a good find CableGuy!

Absolutely, between both of us, 2 games lol.

cam destroyed me with his legs in one game. every time i beat the OL, he took off for big yards. tried QB spying him but that didn't work. they ran the option a dozen times too effectively.

I would love to see this happen in some of my games.

This is really hard to believe. The only time cam did something with his leg was in QB option. If it's a broken pass play he stay still and have little pocket movement.

Next time I play a mobile qb, I'm giving him the Paranoid trait and balanced force passes. This should force the cpu to attempt an escape more often and he will still be balanced or ideal Force passes.

I was playing with the Cowboys and Dak. WAY to accurate. As the game progressed brought qb acc down to 5. Only threw 2 passes at that point, but they were dead on target. I don't like to tinker with a slider to that extent in one game. So I'm hoping, that if I go to play another game, with that slider setting should definitely set in. Again, 1 game.

Major props to you for 1 trying this and 2 sharing it with us. I really think you found something here. It doesn't fix all the problems, but man, its like a totally different game. I think we can work with this. Again, thank you very much. Great find!

I think I am going to try this now. I don't know why I didn't try with out the tuner sooner. It may be the tuner and not the patch that is a problem. I Know after the first tuner came out I got rid of it because it brook the game for me. Before the first tuner I had seen the CPU block one of my kicks like 3 times in 18 games. After the first tuner I saw like 6 CPU blocks in just like 4-5 games. So what's to say this tuner didn't cause some odd stuff like the first one did for me?

Except that is exactly what it means, because it is not real. It is 3D character models many of which are controlled by the CPU. These games are supposed to be a bit fanciful, because that is essentially why people play video games. To do and see things they would not ordinarily do and see.

Just hoping my qb accuracy levels out. The only thing I did was put user int at 35. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

It seems like you and I have the same issue with HUM Acc, can you offer any more info what the game played like with the patch but without the tuner... did you try this set up on AM too?

I disagree. I would love to see ordinary things that I see on Sunday.

Not everyone want to play nfl blitz.

See that's the thing, I'm coming from AM with patch and tuner. Back to all-pro, with patch but no tuner. Honestly at this point I'm probably comparing apples to oranges. I apologize in advance, if this whole thing means nothing. Because all-pro was already getting a good post patch review. But anyway all-pro is playing great at default. Imo though there is slider tweaks needed. As to user qb acc. I started another game with acc slider at 5 for my qb. It appeared to make a huge difference. It was just a couple plays, but I have hope every qb will not look like Dan Marino. But trust me, I know how sliders work. But user qb acc at 5 looked to make a huge difference.

Thanks man, I'm really hoping. It's mid October and now I'm rushing to get my cfm started again. And this past week I had so little time. Edit: Again I apologize if it doesn't do anything with no tuner

So I played a game with out the tuner and of course I need a bigger sample size but it felt a lot different. The CPU still had a high completion % how ever I had a high % to and before with the tuner I was having a hard time completing pass and not getting INT and having a lot of my passes tipped. It felt like guys where getting open a lot more with out the tuner then with it. Also CPU was able to have 1 big run a 40 yard TD. With the tuner I don't think I had seen the CPU with more then like a 15 yard run in like 7 games.

I know its probably been mentioned and asked before but how do you delete the tuner.... I'm on Xbox 1. I'm willing to try anything to get some of these issues sorted out.

Robo qb is once again ruining the game for me. I know madden has a wide variety of fans they need to satisfy but what happened to qb inaccuracies? Why is every qb able to make every throw consistently? Why are guys like Sanchez dotting me up and why are weaker armed qb throwing pefect deep balls?

I wanna see Kaepernick make inaccurate throws, they don't all have to be incompletions but maybe the wr has to adjust and falls down and can't get the RAC.

As it stands know every incompletion I see is an interception, qb getting hit while throwing and the ball goes 3 yards, a throw away, or a reciever not getting his feet down. Rarely seeing any off the mark passes that hit the dirt or are just out of the receivers reach. It just makes the game so dull.

Again it all comes down to working sliders. If we had them this wouldn't be an issue. Every year madden patches in robot qb. If the accuracy slider worked we can drop that down to say 25 and qbs should play like their real life counter parts.

But the online crowd doesn't like innacurate throws so we all must suffer.

Sounds like some really good stuff there.

One thing I can say. The game is playing 100 times better with no tuner on all-pro than AM with tuner. For me. Maybe it's all-pro is simply just playing way better than all madden, idk.

Nobody wants to play NFL blitz. You guys are the only ones that think anybody wants to play NFL blitz.
