Gotcha. So you hadn’t seen changes until today then? Hmm…

I see little changes. I’ve seen weird stuff. Overall I’ve felt help D was never where it needed to be so they either had to improve on ball D or cheat the PNR defence to help slow us down. I haven’t agreed with seeing super radical changes on a daily basis. Everyone has their own opinion tho.

I think part is different systems (not sure What Air is on though?). I think masses on Xbox next gen are seeing it but it’s another reason I’m trying to now capture videos of things as proof lol. But for me it could be more so because of rosters, sliders, help d slider, etc. so not really comparing apples to apples.

Like, I’ve seen guys say not seeing any fouls but I’m getting 30 per game. That is sliders and gameplay style mixed in. Hard to have fouls if no contact in paint or on drives as well as contest on layups and jump shots too low. Add to that upping all the foul sliders as well. But if people are playing out of box sliders I can most definitely see why they wouldn’t get them. It’s hard to make blanket statements when there are so many factors at play.

When an update would come with the help I’d test on stock sliders and adjusted ones. Then I’d go put help d slider up to 100 after that. That’s when I knew there were issues because it still didn’t work on anything. I can only go off what I see. It’s good right now all I know. But I did just see another update this morning?! I’m scared to go try haha

By the way I also had amazing games and experiences over the weekend!

dunno if anybody asked you before: could you maybe Share your sliderset?

I’m getting good games. Overall the game is excellent. Excluding all the things that don’t work.

Really saw some good things in a game this morning and then halfway through I see the dreaded “update at menu” graphic 2K still plasters across my TV the entire time. Ugh.

But this morning (before that update) I ran a pick and pop and both defenders focused on the drive leaving Olynyk wide open. I have personally felt the pick and pop was largely dead this year with under warping defenders and them never leaving the popper. So this surprised me in a good way. The help defender did rotate over and then ran away for some reason but at least I can see some different things.

Then I get beat off the drive/screen and my cpu teammate rotated over nicely!

They help off the corner here. I know we can argue about leaving Bey open here but I just get excited when the cpu helps and opens the drive and kick game.

You guys getting good help and games lately, can you all post if you’ve adjusted coaching help D sliders up? And if you do, do you adjust them in game or in the MyNBA coach settings in the main menu?

Someone weeks ago said he thought they worked in reverse (lower brought better help D for him) and when I played with it weeks ago, adjusting them did nothing.

I’ve had some great games lately too, halftime crash bugs aside.

But I’m beating on ball defenders more easily (not a bad thing to a degree, and it’s a solid balance right now) and most importantly I lowered jump shot defense strength sliders to 25 and it freed up the game big time.

But I’m not getting help when I beat a defender. At least not timely enough.

I see nuances of it, like they’re aware, but it’s not in your face.

Update today made it easy again with some easy layups & everything going in 65-70% (consensus from a ton of guys playing today), and slower help. Smh

Xbox next gen

Fun times with another 2k update… a day in the life of a 2k gamer!

I've given up and gone back to 16. I ask anyone to go back and play that, notice how the cpu defends and adjusts throughout the game (match ups and schemes) and then come back to 22 and tell me it's better.

I'm sure you'll come back pointing out the flaws with the game but basketball simulation wise it's a much better representation of the sport and it's nuances.

16. Not 17, not 18 (definitely not) not 19 (it was passable) and definitely not the unholy Trinity of 20,21 and now 22.

16 was the last time cpu defence was fun to play against. 6.years.ago.

I'd love to go in on that if you don't mind. I'm struggling with sliders this year..

I wish I could get 16 on Series S (digital download).

I have help defence in main sliders at 100. I don’t touch the coach settings since many don’t seem to work and I’m praying I don’t have to do that junk every game to get something decent. Will be trying out the new update soon.

I actually bought it second hand last year (due to 21 being so bad) never thought it would have to be my go too game of b-ball 2 years in a row.

So I just played a game. Beating a defender 1 v 1 is easier than ever in the game. Which I’m not too mad at honestly. AS LONG AS it isn’t cheesable and stupid like 2K21. I CAN turbo around defenders now, fairly easily. But also not so easily I can cheese it over and over (or I just have inherent house rules that I implement like second nature).

Problem is I’m getting zero help defense. The help will slightly close in, but they won’t attack the offender and make a real difference. Same goes for my team. If the CPU beats me, they coast to the hole.

I tried putting my help D coaching slider to 100 during a game, it made no difference.
