Madden 21 All-Madden Sliders - Mike Lowe Version 1.16

madden 21 all-madden sliders

It’s been almost two months since I last posted an update for Mike Lowe’s sliders, and since they remain the Madden 21 All-Madden sliders that I’m using, I figured I should post the most recent update.

Recommended Videos

On top of that, one nice thing about Mike’s process is he always shows off a lot of video, and will even show off “proof of concept” for some of the issues his sliders are trying to correct. His sliders have also made me a believer in All-Madden, which is not a difficulty level I usually get behind.

Lastly, I recommend trying to play on broadcast cam with these sliders. It’s an acquired taste, but it’s delectable if you can get used to it. A lot of folks on OS have come around to this camera, and we hope it gets even more love in future versions of Madden.

Madden 21 Sliders – Mike Lowe Version 1.16 Overview

  • 12 minutes quarters
  • No defensive switch (or rare)
  • No user catch (or rare)
  • Simulate weekly training on bronze
  • I control a LB or DB
  • Will work in full games as well as Play The Moments
  • Evaluated and adjusted for added realism and accuracy against simulated CFM games, and hopefully the NFL
  • Main menu settings do not interact with CFM settings. Period. Full stop. I have confirmation from the Madden team (and from years of personal experience) that it’s nothing but hyperbole/statistical variance.
