*** SN's All American Sliders ***
UPDATE - Minor flaws with v4.2 have been adjusted for v4.3. Here are the following:
* CPU HB Ability gets a drop to 50 to have them play at their true rating, rather than breaking tackles for long gains. (Down from 60)
* CPU Run Blocking raised to 85 to give more push to the CPU offensive line to help CPU's running game. It's countered by lower CPU HB Ability so don't worry about that. (Up from 80)
* More pressure for CPU Pass Rush, up at 55 now. (Up from 50)
* Tighter CPU Pass Coverage, up at 75 now. (Up from 70)
I'm getting mixed reviews, but most said the passing was a bit too easy so I slowly increased the difficulty for the passing game.
There are NO HOUSE RULES for this slider set. You are free to play at your own discretion. Remember, it is a video game after all and it is all about having some fun. Sure, I'd love to have the stats to be perfect, but there will be some anomalies. Everyone has their own playing style so the sliders can be adjusted to their own liking.
IN-GAME TIPS
- Use your skills to your advantage. "User Catch" significantly increases your chances of catching the ball. If you're covered, you can be prone to dropping so be aware of that.
- Rely on gang tackling. It is your best friend.
- Be patient with the running game. Fighting for just 2-3 yards is a norm, especially if you're a weak team
- Pressing Up on RS while being engaged in a tackle causes higher risk of fumbling so avoid that!
- Passing in a tight man to man coverage will put you at risk for an easy INT. Double coverage = Good job, Mr. QB!
- Set your feet if you want to pass at a higher percentage, simple as that. If you are being pressured, your QB accuracy will drop.
- Pump fake the ball while scanning the field! It actually helps with creating some coverage breakdowns. If you have the time to pump fake, then try it. It can be done by moving RS in any direction that you want to aim at.

SN's All American Sliders (version 4.3) - USING SPEED THRESHOLD AT 25
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
v4.3 brings a hybrid of v1.3 and v3.1 together! Speed Threshold is now at 25. Hopefully, this will be the best base set to use. This is now considered as a base slider set, which basically means that it is fine for permanent use, but still open to possible tweaks, if needed to meet your skill level. We have to consider that EA Sports may adjust the Tuner Sets, which could cause changes with this slider set.
