NCAA09 PS3 BP Online Dynasty

[buckeyemania11]

The scary part... I don't see this stuff that everyone else sees. Even when we used those sliders in Iron's dynasty this past season. The only thing that really happened was USC cheating to get a ton of fumbles to keep me from blowing them out. Heck, I even stopped Tebow cold.

I don't see robo QBs against me nor a ton of broken tackles. I might get 2 or 3 a game against me, but it isn't every running play.

I must have cracked the defensive code of this game (cuz I see the cpu throw deep on me and I get pressure & sacks which everyone says doesn't happen) I also pass a ton in this game (I am SMU afterall) and while I see some bad throws now and then, the passing part of the game seems right to me. Cuz if I tweak them in more favor of passing I will go from a 55-60% completion to the upper 80%s

But I am thinking of tweaking the sliders this week just to see if it gets better (lower cpu RBA & lower cpu Break Tackle and up tackle, slightly, ie 5pts) Then we can re-visit this right before the bowl games.

Passing is where my biggest problem has been, offense and defensively speaking

on

I will stop and set up completely and my QB still makes god awful eratic throws a good amount of the times per game (he has 88 Accuracey I believe)

and to me the computer has been given just ridiculous closing speed

I finally got some decent WR speed and it has basically been negated by these sliders, my 95 96 and 93 speed WRs even when going up against slower defenses rarely get open unless it is on crossing routes or curls, and to me its almost impossible to throw deep because when I do the computer DBs make up a outrageous amount of yardage while the ball is in the air and end up breaking the pass up

on defense- I get the computer Robo QB in almost every game, no matter what defense I run the computer just destroys me through the air, and its near impossible to blitz because it just reads it right away and burns you almost every time, once in a while im able to control my DEs and get a sack but ive just pretty much stopped blitzing all together to avoid getting burnt

the broken tackles are ridiculous at times, I can understand runningbacks breaking tackles (well not as many as they do with these sliders) but ive had plays happen pretty much once a game where the computer would throw a screen pass to a WR or a pass to the WR in the flat and the WR will break 5 or 6 tackles on the way to a long ass TD, that shouldnt happen

having to run the same 2 or 3 exploit plays that the computer cant stop almost every play just to make a comeback after the computer heisman cheats its way out to a big lead is way more boring than blowing the computer out almost every game

I think that offensive passing is about perfect. I don't see the crazy eratic throws that everyone talks about. I can think of once this entire season that that has happened to me. However, there are some games where I cannot stop the CPU if my life depended on it.
I also don't agree about throwing deep. I throw deep a lot to WR's with 95 and 96 speed and hit them about 75% of the time.

Everything else is spot on though IMO. In some games it's impossible to do anything except the exploit plays.

What Defense do you run 27?


I've been running the 4-2-5 and it works well against the computer. Though the 3-3-5 works good too. You're not running a 4-3 are you?

4-3 or nickle in obvious passing situations.

Ok everyone... anyone else having these issues? I know everyone complains about the cpu breaking tackles and such, but any issues with passing?

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

how do you throw across the field on a post pattern? post patterns run to the middle of the field.

 

[Basebuck]

4-3 or nickle in obvious passing situations.

4-3 never works against the CPU unless your LB's can run like DB's

 

[Piney]

I also don't agree about throwing deep. I throw deep a lot to WR's with 95 and 96 speed and hit them about 75% of the time.

I still have nightmares about that

I guess it might be my QB, he doesnt have a really strong arm

but the computer just seems to have some sort of amazing speed burst at the last second almost every time to make the play

I know all about your WRs though

 

[Basebuck]

Say your WR to the right is running a post. You snap the ball and roll to the left. As you are rolling to the left your wr keeps running across the field. If you just throw it and then switch to your wr you can out run the defense and almost catch the ball at the sideline.

Not that I mind this goes on. I think it's using your speed and is a defensible play in most cases.

 

[BuckeyeNation27]

I don't ever switch to my WR

 

[jwinslow]

I don't typically switch to my WR unless it's a dangerous jump ball. Nothing wrong with switching to them however, it's the same as switching players on defense.

 

[Piney]

4-3 never works against the CPU unless your LB's can run like DB's

BN probable thinks of this as an 'exploit' but really... the 4-3 defense is broken unless your LBs are faster than your DBs. The 3-3-5, 4-2-5, nickel & dime defenses work best in this game.

 

[Basebuck]

I still have nightmares about that

I'm not even talking about Jordan. That's why I clarified the 95 and 96 speed WR's.
I'm big into matchups. Every user I have played has worked so hard to stop Jordan on the outside I have figured out several ways to use my slot. Over my last several games my slot has led the team in recieving.

I think it is your QB. He lofted quite a few against me that I was able to recover on. I've found that a strong arm is more important than accuracy for the passing game I have.

If I could change one thing about this game it would be the emphasis that is put on speed. Then again, that is pretty realistic. Speed kills in real life as well

har har har. keep making fun of me....but the conversations over the last few days point to people openly admitting to using exploits.

All I will suggest is to use the directional pad to lead your WRs on throws. It works a ton better than the analog sticks.

Then again I am spoiled, my Sophomore QB has a THA of 95 and THP of 89
