It evens out the playing field. Really cuts out a lot of the normal bs plays

Gonna give Knubb's sliders a shot for my next couple of games.

I am using SECelite's from OS.

my only real issue is total lack of pankcakes for OL.. however I can't see raising Run Blocking as I already have no problems running the ball at all.

anyone else noticing this, or should i try switching up to someone else's slider set

There's an all-or-nothing breaking point with pancakes around 65-70 or so. Run Block at 100 basically makes the 9 other guys on your offense bulldozers. It's way overpowered. You can go into practice mode and start at 100 and work your way backwards into something comfortable. I have mine set to Hum/CPU 55/60.

yeah i had rb cranked up on my RTG HB, and it was just plain sick how easy it was.

with the sider set I am using its set like at 35 and I am still able to have big games against the CPU, but went an entire season with not one of my OLmen having a pancake

I did extensive testing on the sliders this year because I wanted to understand how they work. Your Rush Defense setting is also going to play into what happens at the LOS. I have that set to Hum/CPU 50/60. My goal was to create a nice battle at the LOS but if there's a matchup where one player significantly overrates his opposition, the weaker player is going to get dominated. The animation for OL domination is the pancake. The animation when DL dominates is the super power swim move or that bull rush move where the OL falls down.

I don't have a full season's worth of pancake stats, though.

that sounds great, I am definately going to look into this more.

Well, here's all of my write ups, if you're interested. It's kind of lengthy so I can't just repost it. The OL and DL sliders are something you have to feel out.

I never did get around to doing penalty sliders so I just borrowed someone elses. Penalties are a joke in this game anyways. I don't think I've seen PI called in like 3 or 4 years.

Knubb rosters are giving me great games. I'm also being able to get a good balance of rushing and passing. My only complain is the roughing the passer penalty might be too high. Get a lot of them.

MattUM said he got like 17 in one game. That's crazy, I've never seen more than 2 or 3 but the CPU does seem to get at least two a game. It might need to go down 5 or 10.

This is why I have you guys. To test my shit out for me. I haven't had too much of a problem with the Roughing. One or two a game, but it can most definitely be toned down.

I'm gonna put out some revised sliders in either tonight or tomorrow.

MaddenManiacs succeeding? No chance.

:ohmy:

Already "down by choice".
