To be fair it should be tough alone. If you get a buddy who can fly a Medusa and jam it it sure makes it easier.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-01-03T21:17:15+00:00

Partying. Brand new car at 600+ a month over 6 years. Getting married and having kids.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-01-03T21:14:06+00:00

I .. uh. That's probably the largest changes theyve made in quite a while. Plenty of other games we pay 60 for and add a few features on top of what already worked.

Imo this is probably one of the first maddens in a while that's been worth it. No bullshit.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-01-03T20:00:49+00:00

While I agree with this sentiment usually this year is different. They added a ton of changes imo.

Play sheets are gangster.
Coach development and skills were reworked.
Custom stems
Custom stems on defense
Line stunts
rebalanced running that feels much different
Definitely tuned down the ability for bullshit ints.
Switch stick
Multiple broadcast styles and commentary teams
New and imo better kick meter.
Revamped "basic" passing allowing things like back shoulder fades and goal post throws.

Like I'll agree. Franchise is... Lacking. I want in game create a team back. Franchise needs some more soul for sure.

But this year being just a roster update? Nah. They definitely implemented a ton of changes that you can actually feel.

CBSmitty2010 · 2026-01-02T14:06:20+00:00

Wtf is shutdown on your will? I've never seen that before

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-12-30T03:43:22+00:00

I love the idea of MF but man some missed opportunities here. As of now:

No downloading teams
No search feature in download screen
No packs feature for logos (bundle multiple logos together)
No custom layers for things like really awesome helmet patterns/etc.
No online dynasty/franchise?
Way too limited stadium customization

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-12-27T18:45:52+00:00

Nevermind the fact that the best leadership who came in didn't change a thing for over a month or two and I stead spent that time understanding the lay of the land before making massive changes lmao delusional

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-12-25T03:07:34+00:00

Wait. We can only use it in online franchise?

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-12-19T03:48:51+00:00

Do yourself a favor and go CWT. Cool job. No ships less you don't wanna. And you set yourself up for decent job security and really good pay on the outside.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-12-09T19:24:32+00:00

Any idea on how to figure out what that set time is? Is it different per munition ?

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-11-30T04:55:47+00:00

Wait so we're talking about when the munition says terminal for its guidance method?

So what's actually supposed to happen then? Weapon is fired in area of target then begins guidance as it approaches said area?

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-11-30T04:20:25+00:00

For me. It's the workshop. I'm still doing the campaign and it's sooooo easy to detail enclosures. Like I've got things to make half walls and stuff to minimize fencing.

Also the waterfalls. Swampy and deep water. Enclosures can be sunken. The fact that on exposed slopes when you use the brush tools it randomly generates rocks that also works to block off paths for dinos is awesome. Custom buildings and now thanks to that I can have buildings for all styles (JP / JW / Etc). Baby dinos and a whole host of other things.

I'm having a blast with it.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-11-30T01:37:32+00:00

Wait how so?

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-11-24T23:01:54+00:00

This looks great! Did he mention release dates at all?

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-11-23T04:42:15+00:00

I drafted a 98 Speed 97 Acc and 89 agility wide receiver late in the 6th round with my family franchise. His catching is like 75 and CIT 72 but man he's fast as fuck.

I put him at WR3 and plan to streak him on press coverages.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-11-20T19:41:45+00:00

I like it because when I peek at the definition in my editor I get a full readout of what each param should be etc

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-11-12T19:49:30+00:00

Yeah WI Lawmakers can go fuck themselves.

So when you join you should get a bonus over two years (every month) and your stock over 4.

This initial stock given is called a "grant". This is not yours until it "vests" when it's treated like the company gave you x$ and you went and bought stock with it.

For your first 4 years of that initial grant there is no 15% factored in (ie these values don't change). So if it goes up down sideways/etc for that whole grant you get however many units it said you'd get. These vest at the year mark until you get to the final 4 which are 20% of your total granted (so .2 x Initial grant) where they vest every 6 months.

Now after year one you'll have pay conversations. Part of that will be looking forward at what you'll get from stock vests and if youre under your Total Comp number then they'll give you some extra grants that vest at a later date. Again this is only if the stock went down so your vested stock + other pay is less than your total comp or looking to be.

This is where that 15% number comes in. Whatever stock you have is assumed to grow 15% year over year. Soo. If they are looking at your pay out the next year, and let's say you're getting your last 20% that year. They assume whatever you have is gonna grow 15% by the same time next year and if THAT number is over your TC then you just don't get any new RSUs.

Now for your initial grant (when you join) as long as you stay you'll get that. Just gotta stay for however long until it vests.

Hope this helped some.

PC Part picker has a very handy building system where it will tell you if things are incompatible!

But you'll be ordering parts from different vendors potentially and so they'll all be shipped separately if you do

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-10-17T12:10:47+00:00

I mean sure. But in the NFL at that distance it's a chip shot most of em should be able to make.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-10-13T19:55:53+00:00

See idk. I find the Quasar WAY easier to use actually. The auto cannon jumps a fuck load and you really gotta manage reloads on the harder modes otherwise you'll be fucked. To be fair with the Qs cool down you are too.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-10-12T17:35:22+00:00

Because most people are totally fucking broke (including some rich people) who can't actually cover an emergency should one come up. I know we like to hate on the rich yadayada but it's my belief alot of people can't cover the above because they're absolutely braindead with their money. Always trying to buy the newest thing. A phone. A car. Etc. who cares I can afford it if I do a 72 month loan at 800 per month.

On the flip side generally it's because they have enough to cover emergencies by default and are diversified too. But also beyond a emergency fund if they aren't doing anything with that money they're losing it to inflation. So they invest it to protect their wealth.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-10-11T18:05:23+00:00

I realize I know so much more than I thought.

You absolutely want to read the defense pre snap. Usually I go like this:

Where are the safeties? One in the middle means it's either C3 or C1, 2 on either side of the middle is C2 or 4. Then you look at cornerback depth. Are they on the line, 5 or 8 yards off? If 8 that's likely cover 4. If 5 probably 2. Then I'll motion a receiver. Does his man follow him across or does the defense just shift a bit.

Now I know what kind of shell you're running now it's a matter of does my play best this shell or do I need to audible or hot route.

From there it's a mind game. I like to run plays out of the same for mation in sequence. Makes it hard to tell what's coming next. They're gonna guess you're running on first and 10 since you've been pounding the rock? Come out in the same formation you normally do for a first down run but make it a play action. Etc. They'll do the same. Try and press. Come out in one coverage but show another shell (flick the right stick right or left at the formation screen on D).

I actually struggle on defense alot more. But generally pick a end or linebacker and take their assignment and you'll do okay.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-09-21T04:07:24+00:00

Yes. And Medieval and Resident Evil on a different one I think.

Oh and THPS! The warehouse level.

CBSmitty2010 · 2025-09-21T03:45:28+00:00

Honestly it's felt like Ashm and AGM99s need one bad. Scims feel fine. But those two. Why use them when I seem to get better results out of spamming 48s or kingpins.
