    hopefully if they do alter recruits, it will fix our OD for season 2, then we could all deal with less than perfect recruiting in season 1 and just keep on keeping on.

    Everything ive read is that lower 3*s and below are just 'to low' right now from ppl and 4 and 5*s are right where EA wanted. IF they fix progression the 3*s should increase nicely enough and everything would be fine in our OD if we just have 1 year.

    Irondragon, Glenn Stanley (LB for USC) has been released from his LOI (he was a juco guy) and will enroll at fsu so if we do restart at least i get another LB lol, of course he is expected to move to DE for us.

    Smart move by Guru....I wouldn't want to mess up my chances if I was about to take over the #2 team, too ;-)

    Well, good news for those that have not seen it yet. The problems with recruits and progression look like they can be fixed with a tuner set....which is due out next week.

    I wonder though what impact the gameplay tuning will have on the slider set we have.

    Does play action work for anyone against the CPU. I try to set it up with my run game but 9/10 I'm getting sacked or hit very quickly (like before the end of the drop back).

    Play-Action is hit or miss for me. It is a function of the pass rush however. I usually keep an extra blocker in while running a play-action which seems to help, but I do plan on upping HUM pass blocking a little more as well.

    Our first LTP should be arriving next week along with detailed notes on what the update contains. I can tell you that based on the collective feedback we've received, we will be carefully down-tuning the athleticism of defensive lineman and reduce the number of impressive picks by the big guys. We're also looking to address a few important dynasty progression and recruiting issues.
    seems to me that our OD will be safe, progression should be fixed before we head to the offseason, and recruiting will be fixed for year 2 as well (and i bet the 5* and high 4* ratings do not get changed much anyways.

    It works, but not on 3rd down. On 3rd down, the CPU sends too many blitzers, so unless you do a lot of things to your pass protection (just having an extra blocker doesn't help, because a lot of the time your otherwise extra blocker is the guy doing the PA fake), you don't have a chance to stay upright.

    I have a way to fix the CPU blitzing and run/pass ratios for the CPU...only problem is I haven't found a way to do this for Online Dynasties as I cannot access coach settings for the other schools nor can I upload a file.

    Usually if I run one its after I've ran a few successful runs and trying to set it up to run on 1st or 2nd down. I've never attempted to run one of 3rd down before. Still when trying to attempt one on 1st or 2nd, its like they know exactly whats coming and ALWAYS get at minimum 3-4 guys in the backfield once the fake is made. I even try to make adjustments for extra blockers to stay in, for example 1 of the TE's who was running a route initially.

    And the D-line always uses the jump the snap feature somehow.

    i just found sometihng that could be quite annoying in the future. I advanced a minors OD im running with my friends to conf. champ week forgetting neither of us had a game to play, and now it wont let me advance to bowl week until i wait for 20 minutes. Gshwendt, do u know if their is a 20 minute minimum in offseason as well? This could really lengthen our post season activities.

    One of the recent blogs said they patched out the 20 minute wait during post season. But it's still there for week to week.

    No. Initially it was in offseason as well but they made an adjustment in the past week or so that does not require it in the offseason.

    At halftime, I'm being outgained both in Total Offense and Total Yards by Indiana. But they have 3 turnovers, I have none, and the score is 42-3.
