Easier Drives - Less Bumps Help

[Rewmac]

Hello,


I tried many of the settings here and googled a lot. I want to make driving and dunking a bit more easier as I don't have the time to learn all these neat tricks and tips just want to have some basketball fun while having a nice challenge in MyNBA mode.



I couldn't find the sweet spot. I still can't do dunk or nice layup I always get bumped in to defenders. I have set my Body Up sensitivty on User to 20 and CPU 27. I want to have a bit more arcade feeling.


Thanks for helping out clearing some info regarding this.

I was like you. What has helped keep the sense of challenge but lessened the frustration on drives is taking the on ball D in the in the game settings during a games. It has helped me quite a bit still have very close games and losses feel like losses.

Yeah I'm still trying out various setting, but I get bumped a lot for no reason. Thanks.

Decrease - Lateral Quickness, Acceleration, On-Ball Defense too

I put lateral tnd accelartion to 40. On ball to 30 and I still get bumped out of layup animations but most of the time layups don't even start, but the AI on the other hand just pushes pushes than makes a layup much more like real life players, but my players don't even attempt it.


I know I need to get better as well. But this is all too complicated now days. Still I keep trying it every year.

Sounds like Body Up Sensitivity is your culprit. Drop that by 10 and try it out. Then drop it by another 10 if it’s still not where you want it. Get to the point where it’s too easy for your liking, then increase to find the sweet spot.

You’re referring to layup defensive strength too then. Make sure there’s a discrepancy between some of your sliders and the CPU’s, as well.

Mine:

Gameplay - Superstar

Layups - 51 (User) 53 (CPU)

Contact Layups - 57 (User) (CPU)

Shot Coverage - 28 (User) (CPU)

Body Sensitivity - 50 (User) 65 (CPU)

Acceleration - 35 (User) (CPU)

Lateral Quickness - 34 (User) (CPU)

On Ball Defense - 10 (User) (CPU)

Layup Defensive Strength (Takeoff) - 70 (User) 72 (CPU)

Layup Defensive Strength (Release) - 30 (User) (CPU)

Those are the attributes I use to tune driving in the paint. Keep in mind, these are with other slider adjustments.

The Dunk In Traffic Frequency/Success and Attempt Dunks sliders are unsurprisingly super impactful for getting more dunks. In general, making paint scoring easier is one thing that can be accomplished through pretty straightforward means (e.g., lowering the defensive contact sliders for layups, etc.). If I were you I'd focus on the sliders that are specific to inside scoring / driving, rather than making big adjustments to something like Body-Up Sensitivity, since a general slider like Body-Up will have a broader impact (for instance, lowering it will result in less contact on jumpshots, too, so if you're satisfied with your jumpshooting then you could mess that up by messing with Body-Up).
