My only complaint is the order that the formations show up. For me it goes: Ace, I-Form 3 Receiver, all the other I-form, Maryland I, Shotgun, Pistol, Strong-I, Weak I. It just throws me off because I'm used to shotgun being the last set of plays before goalline. I'm not sure why it won't throw the 3 WR I-form in with the other I-forms either.

I ll have to look at this, i would love to take out all the play action plays no more scrolling through those things. I was kinda like Dave above looked at it, thought screw this. And im not buying you have a playbook with strong-I, weak-I, I-form, and maryland I....in it.:lol:
I think there's going to be a tuner pack that comes down to adjust the pass defense. Right now, the rush is pretty quick and the pass D is very good. With that said, because of the way it's setup now, PA passes might actually be a valid option now. I haven't been sacked on 6 attempts, but I've had to rush 2-3 throws. It's not a lot different than the normal passing. Rejoice West Coast fans!

Started with ECU play book.

Removed all Iforms except the Maryland I which is an awesome red zone formation.

All aces and shotguns.

Custom playbooks=AWESOME.

are the custom pbs working online with Reigns tips?

All I did was remove formations I didnt want and added in formations I like.

Also, ive stayed away from PA past few years for a few reasons:

1) they were so effective and people were cheesy at times with them up through 08 if i remember correctly

2) they were horribly ineffective past couple versions.

3) with the improved pass def PA seems like they are a viable option because they help in the pass game and won't be overly cheesy ( only cheesy when people do not attempt to establish the run). I really hope PA is not stigmatized once again. As with anything in NDL-moderation.

just made my custom pb this morning-will be making a few tweaks but so far pretty cool

Spent almost 2 hours working on a PB.

Hopped online and played Riccio for 1 half before the usual disconnect, and realized i hated the book I made. :lol:

I love the custom playbooks but same gripe is it screws up the order of plays. I selected the empty set formation and it has it as the first formation on the list. I added and subtracted some pistol formations and now they are just randomized in the book. When I get home I am going to mess with it some more.
