So why do you want lofty deep passes ?

It will be nice if the QB could make a smart decision, taking into consideration the receivers targeted and defense. But this kind of decision making is a constant struggle for the coding.

For the majority personal tactics, you can say that it is not a morning before the game decision. But removing them or moving them to the AI is NGTH.

Dots don't have legs.

Does anyone even use lofty anymore?

I try to, at times.

it makes no sense whatsoever and never has.

it changes throw to throw, not game to game.

individual QBs may have more lofty or bullet styles on the whole, so it is something that to a small degree may be determined by the QB's build, but it's not something that the QB will decide at the start of each game. total nonsense, I agree, get rid of it.

Even I agree here as it should have always been something addressed by the level of a QB's vision (closest thing to his intelligence) as to whatever throw is needed at the time it is needed.

but they play football so attempt to actually sim and make the game like football go attempt to shoot down a yello1 suggestion instead of a good suggestion

+1 except I'd rather see it modified play to play based on the throw being made, but still have the slider available as a relative bias. Something like the slider would be +/-50 and get combined with an automatic +/-50 based on the throw being attempted. So if your slider is at 40, you'd operate from -10 to 90 depending on the individual throw, etc.
