Patch 2 make the passing game worse ??

[Buckeye Country]

I play CPU v CPU mode and before the patch I was satisfied with the passing percentages, although I felt the Qb's were a littler too accurate. After patch 2 they are ridiculously accurate. EA needs to fix this including the QBA and pass coverage slider. Sliders don't do crap to fix it.! What a waste.

Anybody got a fix, I have seemed to of tried everything but lower my pass coverage because I felt the sacks get out of hand especially with a scrambling QB.

The first one game out on day 1, the 2nd was the most recent.

I think I figured it is in the penalty sliders. Had a good set before patch. Went back default and the passing game seems better.

The other day I decided to change my User versus User difficulty level to All-American, although I only play User vs CPU Coach Mode. What I discovered was an increased difficulty level imposed on the offense by increased speed on the defensive side of the ball. In other words, both my defense and the CPU defense were better.

Oh okay. I forgot about that..

In my experience, playing with both the QBA sliders at 5 seems to produce reasonably realistic completion percentages, at least on Heisman. I think I also might have bumped up my user pass coverage a bit as well. There's no doubt the CPU is ridiculously accurate though.

Your right, 5 QBA plays much better. I think the main problem that I was experiencing is the pass blocking. I had it at 65, which was fine before patch. It seems EA fixed the crazy sack issue. I changed pass blocking back to 50 and it seemed okay. Alabama only sacked OSU 3 times who is a scrambling QB. Only one game though, still testing.

Re: Patch 2 make the passing game worse ??

After hours if testing in CPU v CPU mode I am convinced QB's are way too accurate and the QBA slider and pass coverage slider do nothing to help. If u lower the pass blocking u get too many sacks, if u raise the QB accuracy goes through the roof and there is no happy medium. EA needs to fix this!!!!! Please patch it!!!

You might want to consider other factors like threshold or WRC values. Not to mention the defensive side with the INT values.

Yeah, have threshold at 0 and catch at 40, I am messing with the pass block and int grounding slider here is what I got so far:

Think I got a decent set going but still testing. The passing game is all over the place.

I actually think that patch 2 made the game better I like the passing game a lot better than it was when it first was released. I hope they make a patch 3 but who knows if that will happen lmao.

Re: Patch 2 make the passing game worse ??

I actually found after the patch that passing was less accurate. I may have to raise the CPU accuracy because right now they're competing around 50 - 55% ... maybe 65% max against me.
