Shouldn't it be time to hear of any changes?

Woah woah woah! Hold your horses kimosabi. This ain't no well oiled machine.

They like to wait until the last minute when everyone has already filled their rosters and spent their SP.

I harassed CD about it yesterday and he didn't seem too confident that it would happen as fast as it has in seasons past. He didn't shed any light on the reasons why.

- Fixed zone coverage getting faked when it shouldn't
- Defenders are now better at disrupting long passes
- Added a bonus to catch awareness when closer to route hotspots
- Added a bonus to catch awareness when facing the ball
- Players are less likely to fall down after making a catch

Look good so far.

Not bad, ready to test some of these out.

so now TE passes are even more effective if it adds boost to those hot spots

Sad to see that so far, nothing to help defend counters and nothing to help players in deep zones act more intelligently (just not being faked as easily isn't enough).

The changes seem positive overall, but some key issues haven't been addressed.

it literally says defenders better at defending long passes.

Which doesn't necessarily mean (though maybe this is what it does, in which case it's very good, and it's not bad in any event) that it's through players playing deep zones better (in shells or pure zone coverage).

It's not so good if it makes guys playing pure man without help over the top as much benefit as those who help over the top get. Specifically, players playing deep zones have to react better.

- Added a bonus to catch awareness when facing the ball

All hail Quickness!

Bort/Cdog - Since sometimes Cdog does updates and sometimes Bort and sometimes both, could you at least let us know if there are any additional intended changes?

Thank you.

If they would take out that containment shit that was increased a couple seasons back it would help for the Cover 2 guys you have over the top. Half te times when Counters & Pitches work great against me is when my defenders stand there waiting to give a blocker enough time to get to them.

You're the one who wanted the "containment shit"

cd - more changes coming -- or most of the stuff is likely included in your change log post?


not looking to riot or anything -just curious

Yeah, we have some more changes we are working on.
