Re: New and More Sliders!!

Maybe the EA boys can chime in on this one?

Re: New and More Sliders!!

Ouch! NO CPU Sliders?!?! If true, this is horrid news. WTF are they doing to Madden and NCAA? EA, IAN, ADAM, if you are listening... please let us (THE USERS) determine what levels, etc. to play. Please don't make the sliders irrelevant just because of the IQ stuff you've added. BAD, BAD move if true.

Re: New and More Sliders!!

Bill are you playing on a default level like All-Pro or are you using the IQ settings from the tests? I think it is pretty important to clarify how you're playing as in my mind there could be a big difference.

I can't see how they could allow you to alter the cpu sliders if you playing off your IQ test scores, that would fundamentally break that adaptability system would it not?

Perhaps if you didn't use it and played on a default setting the sliders would appear?

Maybe the write up shows up Aug 13th. lol

EDIT: Actually I just thought of somethign I bet there are no cpu sliders. Remember this is "the first sports game that adapts to you" I bet they couldn't have that working and then give you access to the cpu sliders.

My bet is they don't exist
But the HUMAN sliders DO exist. Makes me go "hmm..." ... Wouldn't adjusting the human sliders also negate the point of IQ?

Good point. I read that you can play with or w/o IQ stuff. Bill, can you turn of the IQ settings and see if the CPU sliders appear.

Maybe, I'm just throwing out ideas on why they might not be appearing.

Re: New and More Sliders!!

So let me see here, I'm presuming if this is the case the way that the adapting difficulty works is that the cpu AI stays the same based on what difficulty level you are playing on but then the game changes the human sliders to handicap or give you a boost based on your IQ.

What a shame cpu sliders don't appear to be in, pretty much every year in the past I have been able to get the football games to play how I want them to by finding a balance between the human and cpu sliders, haven't been able to achieve that with NCAA this year, and I guess it's out of the question for Madden.

Seriously? No CPU sliders? Im speechless....

Re: New and More Sliders!!

I had a notion about the adaptive A.I. and It looks like I was correct. The adaptive A.I. is just an automatic slider adjustment by the computer. I hope they didn't actually remove the ability to tweak the game themeselves. I don't understand why they wouldn't include slider adjustments to the user. Hopefully they are in there.
