    Re: Armor & Sword's NBA 2K18 "Regular Joe" Simulation Real FG%/FT% Style Sliders

    Thanks for doing all this for us. I appreciate it.
    I have a slider question. There's been some back and forth about slider difficulty setting affecting ACE but I'm not exactly sure what I'm supposed to do there.

    I know that the sliders become custom once you change values but am i to start with SS or pro? I know these are pro sliders but it seemed to be inferred that i shouldn't start at pro. Am i missing something? Thanks.

      Lost home opener to the Jazz. Very dissapointing. Jazz defense held me to 40% shooting. They were practically in control the entire game. As soon as I would make a run they pulled away again.

      This game I decided to roll with 12min quarters again and I liked it. At least with two slower paced teams it worked.

        Where I have to get better is on defense and not taking bad shots. The key is to minimize runs as much as you can, but that's the pro game in itself- game of runs and adjustments.

          Injuries happen at a higher than normal rate....I edit the injuries as I see fit for my team and teams around the league. I also have edited the injury settings and they seem much better for me in MYLeague.

          I do not want to turn this into a bugs an glitches thread.....so let's move on.
          Oh I was hoping it was just that because then it would be something that I think could be fixed easily with a patch or roster update. It is something that really needs to be fixed. I want injures but right now the amount of injures that are happing you would think you where playing a football game lol. How do you edit injuries any way?

            I have not played enough with the offensive rebounding sliders to really know how well they work at 35 setting but I have seen 2 different results.

            First game me and the CPU had a combined like 37 offensive rebounds. 2nd game only like 14. Big difference but the first game also went to over time and had a worse shooting % in the first game then in the 2nd game.

                looking at the first page it looks like you said you can download MY League settings I didn't know that.

                      Agree! After figuring out how to play after a million games I'm starting to get the hang of it, but it's still not too easy as the computer has a tendency to make runs. I was just able to have Lebron take over in the fourth quarter like he should.

                        I feel that Some games are easy and some are not. My Hawks are currently pretty well rounded we also aqquired durant this offseason hehe.

                        What i like about MyLeague is that every game plays out diffrent. Sometimes your best players will play well as expected. Sometimes they will set the arean blazing, sometimes they will shoot horribly and perform awful the whole night. It's a wonderful experience.

                        I just lost dennis and durant in one game though > so idk how to feel about it though the season is early so no problem.

                          Hey Armor I was just wondering with the Body-up-sensitivity slider like what are you seeing? I had this at 50 for a while and at one point in time I put it up to 100 for like 3 games in a row and I didn't notice any difference with how the game played or felt or looked. I am just wondering like what do you notice with this slider changed? Its one of those sliders that I am not really sure what it does. Also with your MYLEAGUE sliders are those final? Or do you think you may make some changes to them?

                            That is the NBA. Some nights you have close games

                            Some games you have blowouts

                              So I just played my first NBA 2K18 game:





                              The game was quite even for the first 2.5 quarters, but then I pulled away. I liked the gameplay. Couple of things I noticed:

                              -IIRC, the CPU did not call timeout once.
                              -Fatigue might be something I will take a closer look at. Seemed to me my players should have been more tired, but alas, it was the first game of the season.
                              -FTs might be a little bit low, although I'm still trying to figure out how to defend and get to the basket on offense, so a lack of contact might be the cause of that.

                                My apologies if I missed it but are their any changes to game speed/free throw difficulty & controller settings?

                                Also, I'll be keeping up with your Heat MyLeague!!
