It's nice to know that devs retweet individuals who sell early copies of the game illegally as long as they get rare badges.

I see a lot of people getting Pro at 10 wins, Elite at 20, next level Elite at 30, etc.

Our team is 17-2 and Amateur. What are we doing wrong? 6 men on the roster, and 4 of them have played every game with the other 2 half and half. A lot of people tend to quit versus us by halftime, so maybe we're not getting full progress for each win?

We've even beaten a couple elite teams which I would hope gave us more xp to advance a rank. I don't know what is happening.

Spoiler

no...

how about you not assume

Objectively.

a sharpshooter makes 100% of their open 3 pointers with a green release WITH THE BUTTON.

a shot creator with all HOF badges bricks constantly. (or lets replace constantly with any number that is < 100.) there's no amount of iso ability that can replace shooting 100% when open.


Slasher? again. not 100% regardless of user skill.

defensive players? Can't get defensive stopper or defensive anchor.

in the meta now, and when players get better, unless things change. Sharpshooters will be objectively more powerful over the course of an entire game than any other shooting archtype.

HOF dimer + floor general will always > slasher for penetration

Sharpshooter > shot creator over the course of a game. (which mitigates greatly the need for iso scoring later in games if you're shooting 100% outright)

so we're going with no response?

Yes, I am.

Man, you REALLY need to relax bro. Maybe take a break from OS, or this game for a while. It's obviously working your blood pressure.


As far as the Defensive Assignments thing is concerned. Has anyone on PS4 besides Devs been able to do it? I've tried R1 when it was suggested earlier in the thread, I've also tried L1, which was suggested a few days ago.

Is there a badge we need to be able to perform this function? Floor General, etc.?

If anyone knows anything definitively, I'd appreciate some much needed tutelage and guidance.

No badge needed your PG has to do it and he's the only one that can see it.

Depends on your play style and how well you can read the offense, I'd go with a paint protector over a glass cleaner though. You'll be able to shut down the paint and if the GC gets the board you should be able to alter his shot.

Adults tend to ignore children.

adults tend to either concede when they are wrong, or don't know how to respond to logic and reasoning.

children ignore logical conversation.

What is wrong with you people?

Why is acting unprofessional, mysterious, childish perfectly okay?

why is this okay from a billion dollar company?

I'd refuse to respond if my build was 10 times stronger in the current meta than everything else as well.

Hit L1 when you're on defense and pass icons should show up above the players , then you select a player from there and the defensive stuff should show up.

This [emoji817]I'm a paint protector and I can for the most part rebound with them because of positioning and timing but if they do get it I usually end up with the rebound after they shoot lol
