[ryby6969]

Well, I just played my game and right after the last play it froze. Not to happy right now.

I had that exact same thing happen to me last season. That suuucckkeedd. I definitely feel your pain.

[texacotea]

On and ready

Am I the only one having issues with broken tackles by the cpu? I am seriously considering dropping from the league because of this. The game just is not fun when you have 185lb RB's and QB's breaking 10 tackles a game with Big Hit set to conservative from before the kickoff. Jeff also must have recruited the second coming of Vick, Tebow, and Peyton combined because I could not stop Stephens. He ran the ball 25 times for 112 yards. This is including 7 sacks. He also had 4 broken tackles at 186lbs to go along with Greg Dent's 6 broken tackles at 185lbs.



Edit: I uploaded a few videos that it would allow to show what I am talking about.

But that was on "Very Slow".


Strange thing is that I changed the depth chart and playbook before I retired. So I don't know why Stephens and Dent were the starters. But it sounds like that worked in my favor :D

I'm not opposed to slowly raising the tackle slider but I'm not going to do it to the point to where it makes the CPU anemic. Last season I had a few games where I got quite a bit of broken tackles early in the season but for whatever reason it died down as the season wore on. Keep giving feedback on the sliders and I'll slowly tweak - this goes for everyone.

tOSU loses at home to ND on a last sec Hail Mary. Touchdown Jesus was seen leaving the building shortly after the catch.

Yeah, I just kept looking at the TV like WTF? If they did not get hit by 2 people, they were shedding the first tackle regardless who hit them. Hell, the TD run I uploaded I could not believe what I seen. Thank god the defense could not stop Norwood and McCarron, or I would have been really heated. :D

@OB, sounds good, and I would not have as much of a problem if it were players who should be able to break tackles like that, but guys that size it was just amazing.
