Re: New and More Sliders!!

I just wish Phil or Ian would let us know for sure, rather know now if they aren't there.

Re: New and More Sliders!!

Let me clarify:

Under the difficulty settings you can play Rookie, All Pro, All Madden, etc. Just like always. If you choose those you cannot edit anything (meaning the human sliders). They are preset. You can't even view them.

If you choose the "My Skill" setting, that one edits the sliders according to your Madden Test score.

If you choose Custom difficulty you can tweak the human sliders at your leisure. This is what I did. I see no way of turning "off" the IQ thing. You can use that be selecting My Skill as your diff lvl.

And no, I don't see any CPU sldiers, just stuff for the human player.

Yeah, Fred over at sportsgamer claims the same thing about "sliders". EA took them out cuz of the IQ thing, typical EA, put something "new" in, take something old out....

Well if that's the case that's really unacceptable. Unless the impressions on the board here regarding gameplay are overwhelmingly positive on default settings I'll pass. I can understand things from last gen not being in, I've never really harped on that, but when perfectly fine and working features are starting to disappear from the next-gen games it really turns me off.

I can't handle the inconsistency from the football games, sure they add new things but then I never know what they're going to take out or screw up. This time it seems in cpu sliders that it is an essential part of my gameplay experience.

I'm afraid I'll have to second that. There are lot of things I"ll live without... CPU sliders are not one of them. That's a game killer.

Bill, said that IQ thing cant be turned off, I remember reading in the developers thread stating that you could turn the IQ off and play the old normal way, but if all the settings are locked when you choose, Rockie, All Pro, Madden settings and you cant adjust any sliders, man I dont know?

Sigh

So Bill if I understand then you didn't even play using the IQ feature. So the feature they are touting for making the game challenging for everyone you can't really comment on. So we have no impressions if game play is good using that feature.

Re: New and More Sliders!!

Not saying Bill is incorrect or trying to undermine him in any way, but I would love to get confirmation from one of the developers before this place goes nuclear. If cpu sliders are there or Madden IQ can be turned off it's definitely not presented in a clear way because Bill or Fred over at SG can't seem to find the option.
