I think the poster was referencing the way he feels about the lack of sliders, not poking fun at everyone else who is upset over the lack of sliders.

Maybe I'm wrong, but that's the way I took it.

It's certainly an issue. I have yet to see an incomplete pass hit the ground first. Every pass is broken up, dropped, caught, or picked. There are no "bad" throws.

I even scrambled out of the pocket in my last game with Derek Bigfoot Anderson and threw a pass on the run across my body and it was dead on the money to Winslow, who had a LB draped all over him. If that is patchable...let's hope they do it.

Correct.

On the typical all pro, all madden etc, you cant change anything?

Correct. But you can go into "Custom" and change the human settings as you want. Just not the CPU. I'm guessing this is because of the "adapt" stuff we heard about. I honestly don't know why it's not there.

Thanks Bill, appreciate the feedback.......I dont even want to use my angry words here until
we hear from Ian or Adam. It would make NO sense to remove CPU sliders. Some of us have different talent levels. And if you are winning 42-7 all the time.......im pretty sure the CPU should be harder (no offense to your stick skills)

That's a shame, because in the demo, I saw a few passes drop short and thought throwing on the run was improved...odd. Hopefully, they didn't screw with anything like that right before release. I don't understand, to be honest. Oh well, I'll find out when I rent. Hopefully the patch touches on this and again, it would be nice to get feedback from the devs about this slider thing. Thanks for all the info, by the way!

Ha. Believe me when I say -- I do not have great stick skills. Now, baseball games...I can play some videogame baseball, baby!

But football, a sport I am very passionate about, I am very average at playing. From the 2K days of league play to NCAA...I'm about a .500 player online, playing with buddies. (I do refuse to play random people, though.)

I played another game and updated the blog. I don't think I can play a franchise using my IQ thing. I think if EA can patch the QB accuracy it'll be a lot of fun regardless of the CPU slider stuff. I just want some passes to miss their mark is all.

I love the graphics and even though I think some people will dislike the new "feel" of the game I kinda like the quicker cuts and the new animation. And like I said, I LOVE the Backtrack feature.
