#2 has reached 100 - figured I'd make the third thread.

So, what's everyone playing more on CC? Full team or single player?

I started one of each, but I haven't been playing either very much... I'm working on Ultimate Team since I'm in one of the Leagues on here... Figured I'd get my CC fix once that starts up and see how it is then...

I'm 7-6 in my CC with the Bucs. Still in the hunt for the playoffs as a Wildcard. Still tweakin' sliders, but I think I've finally found it (for my skill level, at least). Martin is a Pro Bowler with 1,100 yards, 11 touchdowns, and 300 yards receiving and Foster is a snub with 95 tackles, 4 sacks, and two picks. I've thrown 15 picks with Free but I lead the leauge in passing. I'm on pace for ~4,500 yards.

I've been playing 9 minute quarters on All Pro. There are usually ~120 plays per game.

I have yet to actually make a user pick. I control either safety at least 95% of the time and I just can't seem to figure it out. I've dropped a few but it's hard this year.

I wish they'd fix all the return touchdowns and all the blocked kicks. Those are the only two egregious stats that I've noticed thus far in CC. I average ~28 ppg and I'm ~20th in scoring. If they take those ridiculous stats out things would fall more toward realistic.

Best part of this game is when the play is dead the players fall over each other.

And the 2nd thing they did right was the player contracts in MUT

other than that they really didnt fix anything but the online lag ... and Im not sure if that was a result of them or not.

And they ruined everything else

Waiting for the Roster update to come out to start my CC.

I love running the ball in this game now. Probably the most frustrating thing you can do to someone in this game and 90 percent of people online line up in shot gun.

What speed do you guys play on? (off-line...can you even change it online?) I was playing on 'normal' but just tried 'fast' and I think I like that better.

Also, the shadows on the players is just way too dark when driving in one direction. Sometimes it's hard to differentiate your players with the opponents. Can this be fixed in a patch (tho I doubt they'd do it)?

MUT contracts were changed because of the NHL ones.

NHL HUT has these contract lengths

6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 80. This is with players who expire after so many games played as well. Although, most contracts (except 50 and 80) are easy to come by.

There are 80 game contracts for Madden. I have 3 or 4, thanks to Legend Packs.

Time to play with the Eagles for the first time online. Let's hope it's pretty much an automatic W for me.

The Game Face feature is pretty cool. I thought it was surprisingly accurate.

So I was looking through the upgrades I can purchase for players and I checked out Gerald McCoy. Apparently I can raise his acceleration. It'll only cose 574,950 points. That's all. Laughing

why can't you specify between FS and SS when you start a player in CC? You always get put at FS.

Also, in preseason games they don't let the backups play, and haeve guys like Jared Allen on the kickoff team... how are you supposde to get better if you dont even get to play in preseason?
