The books aren't excellent because Madden 08 is poorly designed when it comes to making custom books! It's outdated and does not give users access to necessary logic to mimic today's books! There are holes and glitches, Yep! Yesterday right before I was going to post the N.E defense, Madden glitched 20-30 plays and flipped the assignments for no reason! CB1 was covering zone opposite side of field that CB2 should have been covering. I spent til 3 am trying to figure out what happened. I had to use PF book editor to reset every play to make sure the correct logic was being used. When I try to open the book inside Madden editor it crashes now!
As for my AI, I have rules about how I manage and play a game. I set the AI for teams to manage field position and use their best weapons often. Ex. Inside the opponent 5 yard line. I never run any counter or any run play with delay backfield action. I will run play action on 1st and 3rd down only. Never run screens either. The same goes for if I'm pinned inside my 5 yard line. No draws, delays or playaction!! But when the cpu runs the books, They run counter's on 3rd down, screen inside the opp. 10 yard line which I didn't program, delays or read options inside their own 3 yard line. Madden 08 is just Madden 08
I thought the AI I set was pretty good, minus the quirky play I mentioned. The cpu games are exciting. Scoring is up and I really enjoy my books getting the better of the EA default books. The Ravens have put up 50 twice in cpu games with my new book! I have a replay where L. Jackson runs the Read Option, the defender bites on the HB and Lamar goes for 68 for a TD. The plays are good when they work, but Madden 08 is limited!
I'm not going to read the AIGR post, so again you can do your thing bro!
