Tackling

Post by simmer »

I have noticed that when a defensive player attempts to tackle a RB or WR when they are in the open field they get blown away. I have noticed that a DB or LB may get close and they appear to just slow and just dive to the ground, totally missing the offensive player. The defense has to become more aggressive.

Play around with the TackleThreshold in the constants.dat file

I think they are okay
I have them set to 15 I don't remember if I changed it or if it's the default and it seems to be okay alot of the times it depends on the player ratings too for both players involved

I checked and it was set at 13...Do you think 10 would make a difference????Also how could you adjust the defensive players read on the play?

Try it I can't remember the last time I messed with that file.

For read I think it might be Defense_ReadBaseTime if any

Do I reduce the number to make the defense faster and respond to an offensive play more?????



//Defensive Reaction times.
DefenseBaseM2MCoverageArea=3.1
Defense_PassReactionBaseTime=1
Defense_ReadBaseTime=3

I haven't messed with many of the constants lately I mainly tinkered the tackling, Kickoff Distances, and blocking because I was afraid it would override player ratings.
