aggressive and -20 are the tactic settings

Example set 3:
From another team:

I've seen it a bunch this season. And I've only seen it happen to CB's covering the intended target when the ball comes out. I've never seen it happen off the ball. I haven't seen linebackers or safeties in man coverage do it.

one more example

settings here were -95 aggressive

More Info: since switching to semi-aggressive it doesn't seem to be happening at all, but would be nice to do interceptions which is on aggressive

Nov 11, 2010-Changelog

- Make aggressive guys only jump inside so far, depending on how much help they have; update semi/normal/loose positioning after the pass to react/position better

What does that mean, sorry not understanding why would they ever jump away from the play?

The days of the CB's diving underneath the ball on an INT attempt are long gone. Now they make less dramatic moves to the inside in most cases. You will probably need to adjust their tactics. Have them cover a little closer, and try semi.

but is that working as intended, sorry i'm just confused as to why they are jumping perpendicular to the balls path lol instead of jumping towards the ball

Yes that is the way coverage is working now with the new changes and there were a lot of them that affected the passing game.

alrighty, didn't really want to get in a fight over it I just don't understand how CB's jumping away from the play could ever be working as intended, but I'll drop it

maybe could have awaited a mod to respond before giving up

just confused at how over jumping everything is fixed by now jumping out of the way right before the ball gets there

it does not say mod under his name - not saying he's wrong,i understand it's what's in the changelog it just seems screwy

CBs shouldn't jump away from WRs - it is buggy behavior.

I wouldn't listen to that guy, tbh. Dude is wrong repeatedly.

There is nothing in the change-log about CBs going the wrong way, when they should be attacking.

CB play has been buggy for a really long time. I know they put in a bunch of "fixes" in there, but this is one thing that still isn't working correctly, which is why INTs are so far down this season.

that makes me feel better but still no mod lol

Can we get the slider and aggression settings for the CB's in question?

Does anyone else have replays they are willing to provide along with CB tactics?

Needs more info

We were set to 0 and on aggressive

here's one from a separate team
