Been loving this videos man. Almost gave up on the game because of the CPU shredding me and now I’m winning Natties on highest difficulty with 2 star teams 🤓
I wish adjustments such as pinching the line or shading the secondary could be made at the play call screen instead of having to input it EVERY. SINGLE. DOWN.
Appreciate you taking my small advice and being very specific and breaking things down like we are 10 lol It's genuinely appreciated Your videos are literally the best out for this game no bullshit Appreciate you homie n be safe
Shading inside/outside always still seems to be a complete dice roll. Probably half the time, I can have shade inside and even move the DB to the inside, and the DB will basically stand still until the WR crosses his face. Then will attempt to chase after him. Why EA programmed so many new animations into the game, but we still have the same two man coverage animations that we've had since Madden 13 absolutely blows my mind.
I had heard of you in Madden circles, but only really noticed you after seeing your fantastic madden content on twitter this past year. You have quickly become my favorite NCAA creator, and look forward to more videos. So well thought out and put together. Thank you for all of it. The Madden tips on twitter are fire. Dont stop doing them :)
Found this sitting in the car before work. I’ve already started working on adjustments but this video is helping me understand on a deeper level. Excited to get home and work on some of these specifically. Thanks man 🤙🏻
Only thing you can do is use an Ethernet cord and use a wired controller to your console. Make sure you reset your modem/router before doing this. Hope that helps ya mane! Cause I has helped me in COD for sho!
Just a small note- at 23:00 that wasn't actually a blown coverage by the safety, that was the match playing how it was supposed to. In quarters the slot S is MOD (man on demand) the TE if he runs a wheel route, which was what the TE did so the corner manned him, he just bumped the slot WR and so was late getting to it. In quarters the outside CB is in charge of manning the 1 WR if he goes vertical, which you can also see he did.
Damn did not know you could see the run fits on defense! So lame it doesnt show in the controls lol appreciate that! My run defense got a lot better when I learned Cover 4 has the safeties in the run fit.
Thanks civil! Some of these simple adjustments will help a lot. I’m running army playbook in cut but I’ve been hit or miss on getting stops. I want to string together a few more wins. I’m stuck between being too good for all conference and getting beat in all American levels of head to head
I find that most players struggle with a Dime defense set in Tampa 2. I control the MLB and will either blitz all LB while running my LB into coverage or leave the play as is. I find it comical when players can't run, can't pass and have to run options or screen plays.
Goat for these videos 🐐. One question do you prefer revamped passing or free form bc I’ve noticed you using revamped lately but still use free form somtimes
Man… I still don’t know I don’t love either Passing System😂 Revamped is easier for new players. Placement & Accuracy is a bit harder, but more high level
@11:10 - ball through the hands? Amateur hour! I had a ball through my helmet (verified with IR) and was caught on the run for a huge gain. I have witnesses. Appreciate the content. Help-FULL!
Is there any options on how to qb contain on this game? My friend has a scrambling qb with so many abilities and I can’t stop him on the run to save my life. I’ve been looking everything and I can’t find anything
Civil- how did you turn on defensive play art? I was able to turn it on in the main settings for the user player only. Is there a way to turn it on for the whole defense? Thanks for your videos! They are the most helpful ones I have watched.
I notice (in my games anyway) that sometimes for shading and adjustments there are arrows and sometimes there are not. So what does it mean when the screen for shade up/down/inside/outside just shows your joystick icon but no arrows? I see the same thing for o-line slide protection as well.
Any tips for things you can do to get better at defense? Should I do open practice Mini games Or just play online? Maybe road to glory? I want to learn all these adjustments but I also just want to get better in general or maybe a way to spot the offensive weaknesses easier either way thanks for the vid
What about if I want to double team a specific defender I can’t find any video online of how to double team someone and I play in a dynasty with a guy who mainly uses one guy to throw to
If you’re in a zone man a backer on that receiver or safety and then essentially you’ll have the corner and either or covering him. If you’re playing man you have a corner and if a safety doesn’t have an assignment have them man that guy as well and you should have your true double team
start slanting to the side opposite of the running back and play man and man the rb up with your user stand on the end opposite of the running back, watch how it shuts down everything. That's how I beat you not too long ago
I really am a beginner, so I was kinda hoping you would teach me even more basic like how to tackle haha. I try pressing square or cross (PS5) and I still can't close a tackle. Do I tap the button or hold it? Do I need to be sprinting, because my guy always runs right past the ball carrier when I hold R2. Also, to get a user pick, do I need to press a button when the ball is coming toward me? If so, what's the timing on that supposed to be like? All the coverage and DL adjustments are pretty cool though, I'll definitely practice using those! Thanks!
And when you’re on defense u press triangle when your controlling the guy about to intercept the ball( timing of the button should be right before the ball enters the hands)
This might sound dumb but how do you see your individual assignment on your player without showing your entire play? What setting is it? I can't find an answer anywhere
Maybe just press "O" on PS5 or "B" on Xbox to switch to the man closest to the ball. Then continue until you have the right one. Idk if that is helpful or not.
@Mistercivil is there anyway I could have just a moment of your time? I just have a couple questions in regards to the MCS coming up. I messaged you on your Facebook page through messenger, but I never heard anything back. I would really appreciate it.
