CCM Discussion

[RyanLeaf16]

Can we get a stick mods?

Figure we should have a thread for updates regarding our CCM play. I just finished my first pre-season game with the Dolphins. Beat the Bucs 45-16. Pretty high score, so I am thinking I may need to lower the minutes per quarter. I am currently using 10 minutes with the accel clock going down to 25 seconds.

I am going to use Tannehill as the starter for me, but, I am trying to decide on whether or not to keep Moore or Garrard. IRL, I would rather have Matt Moore, but, I am going to go strictly by performance in pre-season games for my CC. After the first game, Garrard has the lead as he was more effective throwing the ball. Moore went 2-6 with a INT.

Game notes:

- Lost Cameron Wake on the first drive of the game when he sacked Josh Freeman. Wake went out on a cart with a broken collarbone and will be out for 7 weeks.

- LB Austin Spitler will be out 5 weeks with broken ribs as he sustained an injury in the 2nd quarter.

- Due to the injuries above, I am afraid to play anymore pre-season games.

- Tannehill looked really good going 7-10 for 154 yds

- TE Charles Clay played well with over 100 yds receiving

- Jamaal Westerman played really well at Wake's RE spot, but will still battle Olivier Vernon for the starting gig. Vernon has some impressive ratings in certain areas (STR, PMV, BSH).

With the recent news that the upcoming patch could require you to restart your CCM I'm afraid of getting too invested with my Lions Coach CCM at the moment. Right now I'm going to run a player CCM with my boy Barry Sanders on Detroit (Megatron + Stafford + Barry = :fap: :fap: :fap.

I didn't know that you may have to re-start. Where did you hear that? OS?

Josh Looman on Twitter:

@Josh_Looman hey, wondering if future patches will impact existing CCMs? or will you have to restart a CCM to get the patch updates? Thanks.

@KidChasesDreams Depends on the change. Some will require re-starts.

Started one with the Giants yesterday
Currently 4-0
Week 1: Beat the Cowboys 31-24, Miles Austin was killing me but got knocked out of the game in the second quarter really turned things around
week 2: Rolled the Bucs 30-12, Tampa Bay traded for and are starting Pierre Thomas over Blount and Doug Martin, Lost Keith rivers for the season after I reentered him into a game with a High reinjury chance, torn achillies.
week 3: A bunch a bad fumbles and stupid interceptions lead to falling behind the Panters 31-7, but was able to turn it around and win the game 32-31. The Panthers traded for Isaac Redman in the preseason however they also signed Ryan Grant and are using him as their starting runningback. Johnathon Stewart and Deangelo Williams are 3 and 4 on the RB depth chart :smh:
week 4: Edged out the Eagles 21-17, ran for over a 100 yards with both Bradshaw and Wilson but couldn't pass for shit. Eli and Vick combined for 18-38 156 yd 1 TD and 2 INT, neither QB over a 100 yards. Vick did run for over a 100 yards against me. Actually had an offensive lineman get hurt, C David Baas, something I don't think ever happend to me on Madden 12

Two things I noticed about CCM:

-There doesn't seem to be a Transacation Log other than the main stories/twitter feed. If there is I haven't found it in any of the menus
-When you simulate the preseason games, starters play the entire game, this holds true for the games around the league

Edit: Two more things I just remembered
-The game is not counting/keeping track of assisted tackles right now
-Formation subs reset after every game, kind of becomes a pain in the ass

 

[Maynard]

is there a timeframe for a patch or is it still weeks away?

I like how in CCM the commentary at the end of the game they make mention of the teams record and what they can do going forward into the season I think there is room for more but its a start.

 

[krulmichael]

Slated for September 11th.

for preseason, load the game and super sim. i believe that brings in your backups.

Honestly it seems like this mode was made for online only.

 

[red33]

i made the qrtrs 7 mins with 25 sec playclock and when its simmed i was getting 60 plays per team on all pro.

need to try some sliders now, i might just leave it as is.

Tavaris Jackson

 

[Maynard]

4 yr 40 mil...cmon. the only thing that would make that ok is if he progressed alot and had the numbers to back it up. Then the question becomes, how much did his ratings progress and over how many years?

 

[jms493]
