You're right putting it to 5 does open up the run game.....


I just can't stop the pass at all, but that is more of a personal issue.....

Those were my box scores. I was the New England Patriots and I got my *** kicked! I did play around with the interceptions I think, so that might be why there was such a high INT rate, I'll be putting it back!

Also I wanted to show a fair game so I chose the Ravens @ Patriots (both 85 overall).

I feel pretty sh** for losing against the Ravens big Patriots rivals a rematch of the 2009-10 playoffs where the Ravens won 33 - 14 against the Patriots. Also kind of soul crushing for me to post those results on here and say how bad that game went.

I got killed on the ground game again! But I love having the challenge, rather than winning all the time, gets boring.

Looking at those stats (specifically Jarodd21) in what areas would you recommend I change the sliders? Run game? INT? If so what would you recommend. I want a good challenge, I want to lose to higher rated teams like Packers, Eagles, but I want the challenge of "I could actually win". Any ideas?

Thank you!

Oh and just to show how realistic these sliders actually are (could be coincidence, but just check).
The game I posted above in the 1st quarter, 1st play, Ray Rice runs for 47 yards. Sound familiar? 2011/12 season, yesterday in fact! Ravens vs Steelers 1st quarter, 1st play Ray Rice runs for 36 yards! Link below to actual 36 yard run.

Loving the realism!

[Jarodd21]

@Bradybunch From looking at the stats you probably do need to lower the INTs back down.. Where did you have the INTs at anyway? Do you consistently have a hard time running and stopping the run? Lower the CPUs rush reaction down 5 if you do and lower the CPUs runblocking down 5 too. Give me an exact run down on the slider set you're using..

11. Go to NFL.com http://www.nfl.com/
12. *if you have a laptop skip this step
a. Print out all 32 Teams Active Rosters as of 9/11/11
13. Go to Player Management
14. Use Printed Sheets to Delete Fake UFA Players
15. Go back to Player Management and Cut Players as follows
OFF= QB [2] RB [4] FB [1] WR [5-7] TE [2] LT [2] LG [2] C [2] RG [2] RT [2]
DEF= LE [2] RE [2] DT [3-4] LOLB [2] MLB [2] ROLB [2] CB [5-7] FS [2] SS [2]
*= K [1] P [1]
16. Go to Player Management and fix Player Pos as needed
17. ***DO NOT HIT AUTO REORDER ROSTERS***
ex. (OVR)

LOLB 82 ROLB 87
LOLB 73 ------
LOLB 64 ------

change to

LOLB 82 ROLB 87
LOLB 73 ROLB 64

this will balance out the depth charts


18. Go to Player Management and select Team Captains
WHY? Cause these are the players at the coin toss u don't want benchers out there
I normally pick my favorite players for each team.

19. Go to Player management and do all the player edits you want 8)
all personal pref here.
NOTE:You can't edit "?"/rookies/fakes till after preseason :cry: :shock:

20. Depth Chart Time 8) Even out the Depth and balance the weight
a. ex(1)

LOLB Jerry 1st ROLB Harry 1st
LOLB Barry 2nd LOLB Barry 2nd
LOLB Terry 3rd LOLB Terry 3rd

why? = Cause now these 2 players will say 2nd String and 3rd String this is important
for simulation reasons and auto sub reasons [don't forget to set your auto subs ]

POS that need to be balanced [LT,LG,RG,RT,LE,RE,LOLB,ROLB]

21.Players needed to fill req. after UFA Fakes are Cut [if you released the correct fake ones you
will have these left over don't cut real rookies
***Make sure to sign only FAs below 59 OVR so it wont effect your depth changes you just made.***

HB= TEN
T= ARZ IND GB
G= SD IND ATL SF GB OAK STL NO
C= OAK NYG
DT= ARI SD DAL MIA GB BAL HOU
FS=GB

22. Next Save File as
NFLwk1.fra <-- Save to restart season
NFL.fra <---- Season to Play
"Your Team" ex. Patriots.fra <--- Your Team's Franchise

you will basically make a league template with changes as default

23. Now Sim the Pre-Season if you wish to do so but when Pre-Season is done do not forget
to edit the rookies

Print out a sheet of Rookies Names for a reference. Edit them if you wish.

Next Save File as
NFLwk1.fra <-- Save to restart season
NFL.fra <---- Season to Play
"Your Team" ex. Patriots.fra <--- Your Team's Franchise

24. Then simulate the season and look for any glitches bad stats etc.

If not move on to Pre-Season and test that as well.

If you have time Simulate the Season again on Year 2 now.

25. If there is no problems then load the file of your choice below
NFLwk1.fra <-- Save to restart season
NFL.fra <---- Season to Play
"Your Team" ex. Patriots.fra <--- Your Team's Franchise

Enjoy! You earned it probably take a good 7-15 hours or more :shock: if you really your picky , ocd , etc :P
I simmed some seasons and the stats were pretty good don't forget about coach schemes

I haven't tried your exact sliders Jarrod, but I did take into account the part about leaving all the user sliders under the 75 total. So thank you very much for that. My sliders are very similar to yours, but slightly tweaked.

Having said that, I play on SLOW gamespeed and tried to bump it up to normal the other day and my game got out of control quick. I had mostly tough defensive games when I played on SLOW, but after bumping it up to normal both teams started putting up points in a hurry. I think it does effect how fast players can run away from the defenders with the gamespeed turned up. I don't think it effects anything as far as broken tackles or shedding blocks and stuff like that, but it just seemed like a bit more of a wide open game with scoring galore on the higher game speed.... Maybe it was just coincidence but I figured I would share my thoughts.

Yeah I tested a game with it at 5 and seen how much the run game opened up so I knew it would be a good spot for people who were having trouble with 50-0-25.. Yeah you have to have a good scheme to slow down the CPUs pass on top of switching off and making plays.. You can always lower the CPUs accuracy a little bit until you get a better scheme together..

Yeah I been preaching that 75 total since 11.. A lot of people are finally realizing it once they test out what I'm saying.. Its good because you can tweak to your liking and keep the gameplay at All-Madden.. Post your slider set when you get a chance. I like to see what you're working with. It might give me some ideas even though I like my current settings..

Yeah you guys might be right. I never really tested the gameplay on any other speeds besides Very Fast. I really think it takes some adjusting to slow down the big plays because a lot of guys are so use to the game being slower and don't react quick enough because they are not use to that speed. But you could be right. I still think the sliders would be tough regardless of speed though..

Its all good man.. It doesn't matter what the rating is as long as the guys who are using my sliders are enjoying them.. Thats all I really care about.. But I appreciate the 5 star rating from you anyway man..

[ImxNikx]

Where can i find the template so I can post stats for my game? I just finished a game with the new slider tweaks you told me to do. I lost the game 25-19(will post stats if I can find the template), it was a fun game. The only problem I'm noticing is when i put WR Catch on 60, it seems as if the CPU throws more bullet passes. Anything below it seems as if they throw some pointless lobs...

So i was curious if you think dropping CPU Acc 5 points and putting CPU Catch at 60 would make a difference?
