I'm an insufferable shitposter who does not deserve to root for such a good team. Also, this is what Matt Harvey thinks of me and my garbage posting.
My cpu game the other night it felt like there were a TON of penalties.

Anyone have suggestions where to move the sliders if penalties are happening too much?

It feels random to me, when Dave made that post last night, I was going to reply that I hadn't really noticed an increase. I decided to play my game against the CPU in the other league before posting though then proceeded to have a game where it felt like there were 2 penalties on every drive.

Bring it down to around 35ish and we can see how it goes?

I haven't done much slider tuning yet as I've been playing nothing but MUT. That said, in MUT, penalties aren't nearly as bad and you're locked to default sliders in there.

I'll be at work until like 3-4 central. Then I was going to try and squeeze a bike ride in. Would you be available tonight or tomorrow at all?

EDIT: Also if you see me on PSN today, that's my mom using my PS4 to watch a movie or something.

Okay, I switched the sliders to the following:

Offside - 50
False Start - 45
Holding - 35
Defensive Holding - 40
Face Mask - 50
Defensive Pass Interference - 55

I decided to push defensive pass interference up a bit because I feel like there are alot of instances of DBs getting directly in the way of routes down field and nothing being called. Let me know what everyone thinks about these settings and give me suggestions on where to move them after playing a game.


Julio Jones is ridiculous in this game. His release, acceleration and speed all combine together to make him really lethal after the catch. If he has more then a step on a defender, he can generally leave them in the dust after the catch.

What a loving game. Steelers lose 27-24 on a FG as time expires. I couldn't get anything going in the run game to save my life but Rivers threw for 3 TDs and had a pretty good game. We traded blows back and forth the whole game and I can't wait for a rematch man. Also, gently caress DPI in its rear end I had like 4 big chunks of yardage given up from a few of those drat penalties.

Great game. I was yelling at the tv after I gave up that huge last TD.

Those penalties out of nowhere saved me.
