    One question I had was regarding the rosters to use with this set. I see that you recommend using TimSmooth's file, but I don't see anything about it in the roster sub-forum. Any idea where I can find info on this roster?


    Yeah the Dolphins really....well they were the Dolphins. Typical. I expected that actually.


    Here is the kink to his roster thread. The roster is not out yet. Once his opening night roster is set....that is what I will roll with.

    I am also going to waiting for the FDU draft classes as well. Here is the link to that as well.

      good call, game is so fun, even losing with my crappy hawks roster. All ive seen is free throws to accurate for both sides, 90%+. which way do i adjust slider to make harder?

        Sorry but free throws are based on real FT% and totally ratings based and there is no slider that affects that aspect when using real FT%

        My FT%'s have been outstanding depending on who shoots them as well as my opposition.

            Sorry if it has been asked before,


            are these settings and sliders available to download on xbox one? How to search for them?

              Pro is my level and these are desinged for "Pro" level 2K players who want a better CPU opponent at the "Pro" level.


              I may revisit Superstar again later in this cycle....all depends how my first season goes with The Heat once rosters/draft classes are finished.
              I started with Superstar difficulty and entered your sliders from there. I noticed zero difference honestly. Played exactly the same to me. I feel like there is a placebo effect with people thinking starting on the higher difficulty makes a difference. Once you customize the sliders, they are what they are.

              That's what I've seen.

                  This thread alone swayed my mind on buying 2k this year. After reading all the complaints and problems on the general discussion pages, I was intent on just using updated rosters for 2k17. But coming here made the sell. Can't wait to try these sliders out

                    Definitely loving the sliders Armor!! For a really casual player like myself who is slowly getting into basketball, this is so much fun for me and challenging! Sitting 1-2 with the timberwolves. Got beat badly one game, played a really close game In game two and lost, and then had a shootout in game three to win it! Towns is a beast for me and the Wolves putting up 44 points in game three!

                    Thank you for the hard work you’ve put into the sliders so far![emoji4][emoji4]

                        I was the Warriors this game. Injuries off btw....I set rotations manually for each team and I loved it.

                        I felt in control the whole game, however the 4th quarter was dominated and imo we blew the game.

                        I still feel 11min quarters will be better suited for me. Offensive rebounds are crazy high here. Default Pro was 35, think I will lower back to there next game I play.

                        Choosing one random game to play during a test 30 team control MyLeague.

                        Any thoughts on my stats? That game was amazing btw! Tied at 99 late in the 4th and lost.

                          We are still in the heavy testing phase.....so Offensive rebounds for most of my games have looked great. It may get tweaked down though in the final set....but not too much.

                          I still need a large sample size which we are working towards each day.

                          Overall though....loving this set.

                          Also I am still testing the different controller options for directional passing so stay tuned for that. That is a personal preference type of setting though so use what you like.

                            I've been quite busy so unfortunately wasn't able to play until yesterday. Got in two games, and thoroughly enjoyed the game play. I lost to the warriors as the thunder and beat the raptors with the celtics.

                            Not enough sample to comment much on stats but nothing stood out as out of the ordinary. I'll try to post some screen shot stats later.

                            Appreciate your sliders as always.

                              I am going to play a few games on all star and see how it goes. This is years game fells easier then any NBA 2k game ever. I am finding that it is to easy to get into the paint. I just played my first game last night on All star and was down most the game but hit a 3 to tie the game and force over time has the clock ran out but still lost in over time. On pro the CPU shoots below 40% like 90% of the time.

                                Guys looking for perfect stats should trade in game now

                                You will give up too much gameplay and cheese looking for perfect stats. Some people can drag the fun out of a video game

                                Bumping up sliders is fine, but play 20 games and you will be pissed that CPU is cheating you would late game code etc
