Question regarding AI

Postby Ronm » Wed Apr 22, 2020 4:45 pm

Hello from a new "convert".
I have been looking for a good sim ever since FPS Pro Football 98...which I still love but which is more and more difficult to play on newer machines.
I downloaded the free trial yesterday for DDS,and am sold. Most issues I would have seem as if they can be modded around.
I downloaded Tigers NFL mod and began a new season as my beloved Oakland Raiders. I worked through training camp and even developed a couple of plays.
Next began preseason games...our first was against the NY Giants. Here was the only real issue I had And I'm sure there is just something I missed. We blew the Giants out 43-6. Great....except it was cheapened by the fact their AI went for it on all but 3 fourth downs...2 FGs, and 1 punt...the other 14 in the game ranging from their 22 to my 35, and with yards to go ranging from 4th and 2 to 4th and 19….they went for all...now I like to gamble once in a while, too...but is there something I'm missing? I actually "gave one" back at the end of the first half, by punting on my 1st down after they went for it on 4th and 9 from my 42 when they were down just 13-0.

It could be those coaches have a high aggressiveness set, or it could have just been how far behind they were. We did a lot more aggressive playcalling because people didn't like to see punts for low yardage. But we're always tweaking things in patches and in new versions so we can take a look at it in the future.
