James Britton Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'm in the Super Bowl as the Raiders vs. the 49ers. I've played the game about 10-15 times. Every single time I am barely able to do anything vs. the 49ers. Bo Jackson is in excellent condition but he can only get like 5 yards at a time. If I break into the open field, defenders will always catch up to me after a few yards. On kickoffs and punts, the computer's coverage team moves at the speed of light to stop me after only a yard or two. Almost every pass I throw is intercepted. Receivers will be open but defenders will move with super speed across the field to cover the receiver. And it seems like the computer calls the same play as me about 80% of the time. Why does the computer cheat like this in the playoffs? What can be done to counter the invincible CPU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tecmo Psycho Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Why does the computer cheat like this in the playoffs? What can be done to counter the invincible CPU? 1. Because the computer can read your mind. The COM simulation progressively gets tougher each week of the regular season. I think this makes it fun. 2. Don't use the Raiders. Use a passing team. 31 PC will get intercepted all of the time no matter what week of the season you are in if you are throwing into coverage. Practice, practice, and more practice. 3. Do you ever play MAN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeCmO_sUpEr_BoWl Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Bo Jackson is in excellent condition but he can only get like 5 yards at a time? 5 yards a carry, at that point, is pretty good. Also, try running with the QB (I call it the Tomczak Strategy). James Britton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keirre21 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I'd say try reading some of the strategy guides at GameFAQs.com and then just play a few seasons on your own to see if you can figure things out on your own. I know you are new but the number of threads you are making is out of control especially since some of these are questions that can be answered by doing some reading.

Interception ability is boosted on all plays for all players4. Pass Control is boosted on all plays for the QB5. Reception ability is boosted on all plays for the WR The COM can not have ability boosted beyond 100 for PC,REC, and INT James Britton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I do read those strategy guides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try that PockyCandy. Jay Schroeder sucks big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Britton Posted December 28, 2014 Author Share Posted December 28, 2014 I can't remember--less yards than Schroeder though. And he got injured at the start of the 4th quarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamB5000 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 (edited) Nice D! As a kid I seem to remember winning it all without much of a problem. As a grownup I often struggle once I make the playoffs. They get much too quick for me. Lead blockers be damned.
