I feel we need to adjust the player speed differential. I'm playing off-line dynasty with it set to 40 which seems to slow down the defense an appropriate amt. No being chased down by dts

"People clamoring to advance every two days need to be a little lenient around the weekend"

Actually, I'm all for just going into recess on the weekends. The reason I was asking was so I could try to get my game out of the way and then have the bye week fall on the weekend. Sometimes I end up playing in front of company on the weekend and I hate having to do that.

pass rush is a major part of football. if qbs could hit open wrs everytime they saw them, scores would be in the hundreds every game. thats why chuck's defense worked so well. you should not have a lot of time to throw. if defense was any slower it would turn into a shootout every game.

[Edited on July 30, 2011 at 1:24 PM. Reason : you have to read the defense before the snap and make your throws before the guys come open. ]

"The receiver, of course, makes no play on the ball at all and just lets the guy snag it."

you mean you didnt even try to switch to the guy and make the manual catch?

Passing just comes down to decision making just like in real life. you have 3 seconds to read the pass rush, recognize the coverage and infer whats going to happen with the wrs routes that should already be in the back of your mind. if you are watching the wrs to see if they will come open, then you risk getting sacked. just like in real life. If you are uncertain or nobody is open you just have to eat the football.

Pre snap: see if they are showing blitz, man or zone.
Right after snap: see if they are jamming or pressing the short routes.

It its zone 2 deep the the middle can get open. if its 3 deep then its even tougher. if its one deep then you have to look for an out or a corner. WATCH THE SAFETIES AT THE SNAP.

if its a zone blitz then the side the blitz came from will be open.

PASS ON RUN DOWNS, RUN ON PASS DOWNS. if the person knows you are passing, its a lot tougher to pass. if they think you are running, things will be open but you will have less time.

you have to play smart this year which is great. you have to setup the defense for differing plays.

yeah, you gotta love those random ints out of nowhere. And I love my TE.

Final:
#22 Clemson- 30
#12 FSU- 21

The Tigers finally finds some offense and puts up over 400yds of total offense on their way to a 30-21 win over 12th ranked Florida State. True Freshman RB Mike Bellamy runs for 162yds on 18 attempts after taking over for Ellington who was injured in the second half. FSU cuts the lead to 23-21 midway through the 4th quarter but Bellamy's 77yd rushing TD on the next possession puts the game out of reach. The Clemson defense really took charge of the game forcing 3 interceptions and keeping pressure on Florida State EJ Manuel the entire game.

UP Next: The Tigers look to move to 6-0 as they finish up their 4 game homestand against Vandy.

Sounds like it was really bad lag or your button is messed. Either that or you are just exaggerating the dt coming free, you being like o shit lets throw it now, pushing the button, and getting sacked a second later because your qb isn't rivers and took too long winding up to throw it.

huh? He didn't even get touched. He just ran down the 4 lane interstate that opened up in the middle of your defense. And it's a bit unrealistic when a 3 man rush can get to the QB that easy. There's no way the clemson dline is that good.

I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the slowest developing up-the-middle sack I've ever seen and that I absolutely could not get the ball out of Manuel's hands.

I don't have a problem at all with the pass rush. Even in that game where I was hounded the entire time, I think I was only sacked twice. And I like that it there's a bit of a wind up now. But online it's a killer.

--

Thought I remembered him bouncing off one or two at the line of scrimmage. Could have been any of your dozens of huge runs, I guess.

How about that big pass you had right before the half, where my dipshit back tried to tackle your receiver by diving at him with his arms by his side. Whereas on what would have been a 70+ yard TD pass on my first drive, your Usain Bolt LB chases down my receiver and grabs his ankles from behind.

Is anyone else down with Halo's sunday wednesday deal?

Clemson is vastly overrated in this game altogether. Their defense is rated really really fast. They are an elite team in this game.

In real life, 3 seconds is all you can consistently get with a good team if the defense is pinning their ears back. 3 man rush can be harder to block. If they have 3 linemen getting to you, then you obviously need to be running the ball.

You guys know this because ncstate was giving teams like 2 seconds to throw on 3rd down last year with the blitz and several years back with our nfl dline alone.

^^no because you are on my schedule but you should really just go to by play type, pass, quick routes to fix your "getting the ball off" problem. Every problem has a solution. Every adjustment has a killer. This is just a giant game of chess and if your opponent is making the right moves, then the game will seem like bullshit. There could be one small thing you dont adjust cause you to get blown out where if you made that one small adjustment, you would've won. The game is drastic like that.

With all due respect to my opponent, who played a very good game and obviously bested me, he didn't do much strategy-wise to beat me. For the most part, my offense was rolling and it was because I was countering his every move. I got beat because my AI players couldn't tackle anything and his defensive players were playing like superhumans. The issues that caused me to lose the game were almost entirely the fault of the game itself: the lag, the crazy defensive AI and the absence of a speed difference between what should be fast players and what should be slow players.

Give me an even playing field and I don't think I would have lost the game.

The more I post about it, the more it sounds like sour grapes. But I'm just airing out the issues that make this game not very fun, especially online. Everyone is up against this crap, but I haven't seen it all come together yet like it did today.

And you can stop with the Bill Walsh reading the defense shit. We all know how to play football, we all know how to play NCAA. You aren't impressing anyone with some shit you read on the internet.

We are playing on all american.. you can't rely on ai to do anything especially against a good team like clemson with what appears to be a good player controlling them. The only reason the computer gives any resistance is because they have omnipotent play calling.
Quote :

That is one of your (you or him) faults and something both players play in. I also would bet theres a correlation between lag and game freezes. try mixing it up with turning the other pcs off during the match and maybe even a direct connection
Quote :

Its all about acceleration. speed rating is top speed and accel is start stop. theres also elu and agi. Lots of different types of speed. Defenders already running at full speed can catch you if you change directions.
Quote :
"And you can stop with the Bill Walsh reading the defense shit. We all know how to play football, we all know how to play NCAA. You aren't impressing anyone with some shit you read on the internet."

Well its a red flag when you are complaining about defense being too good in an offensive geared game that is also being played on aa.

I'm not going to tutor you until after the acc championship game. The more we play, the more you will catch up with me and if you are anywhere near my level when we play, then I have no shot at the huge kentucky vs florida state upset.

I mean does this shithead even read posts or does he just try to respond with some garbage that makes him sound like he's some sort of NCAA MLG pro

Lag only got me when I had to call a timeout late in the game because the hot route controls weren't responding fast enough. Mostly I was complaining about the QB wind up.

Quote :

None of that is relevant. Slow players are catching fast players because of the speed differential setting. I play at 0 in my offline dynasty and it's great.

Quote :

I'm complaining about the defense being cheap, not good. You coaching up pre-snap reads is pointless.

Well winning the first championship game will make recruiting better and by a 2nd season I will have sewn up major flaws on the team.

Its not about him gaining an unfair strategy. That could never happen. Its about me exposing him and helping him get better. Playing against me would be like lifting weights mentally. I just don't want to create a monster by making him good right before I play him.

Also, from his posts, he doesn't seem to want to play more than one season anyway.


^you said you might not win another game on your schedule. Florida and a bunch of cpu games are on your schedule. No disrespect, but if you can't beat any of them, you won't stand a chance against me.

This will be great to boost interest late in the season. it also gives more time for buildup/anticipation and more time for you to get better on your own.
