    NBA 2K18 "The Eccentric Edition" - Realistic Slider Set

    2K18... It's been real. It's been fun... But it hasn't been real fun. Sorry, but I see this newer, younger model on the horizon (2K19), and I'm just not that into you anymore, baby... I'll tell you what, let's give it one last go around, for old time's sake. Yea? Alright, but stop crying, that totally takes me out of it...

    But in all seriousness, this BETA update will be the last thing I do with 2K18. 2K19 is just around the corner, and after seeing the new hotness, I just can't go back to the old-and-busted. Can you blame me?

    I present to you:

    Base Slider Set v6.0 *BETA* - Latest Update: August 11th


    Spoiler



    Base Slider Set v5.0 - Latest Update: May 14th

    Content Name: Eccentric v5

    And for those interested, here are a couple of my previous slider sets for 2K18:


    Spoiler



    What I'm Working On for the Next Update

    - Fine tuning of shot success sliders
    - Incorporating player feedback to improve the overall experience



    PLEASE post any and all CONSTRUCTIVE feedback, positive or negative, so that I know what people like about my slider set and what I need to improve on! Also, please post any and all personal findings and/or tweaks you've tried out! Try to point out what you are seeing too much of (ex. The AI attacks the basket too often), what you're not seeing enough of (ex. The AI does not go to the post often enough), etc. And also, it's just fun to see the results everyone is getting and to have a discussion on what can be improved/what should be left alone.

    Here's a simple resource I made to help depict what exactly "realistic stats" should look like:
    NBA Stats to Replicate with Sliders

    Now that I've posted the base for my slider set, give it a try and rate my thread accordingly! And as always, PLEASE feel free to LIKE this post if this thread has helped you out in anyway (or if you just think I'm a cool guy). It is greatly appreciated.

    Enjoy!

    So far, I can tell that the CPU is in love with the midrange shot.

    Done a couple of game cpu vs cpu boston vs cavs so far.

    Kyrie / Rose / IT are settling for midrange shots 85% of the time (after a drive)

    Lebron wasnt too aggresiv, made a couple of driving dunk but no lay up.

        Getting a base set settled on as we speak. Hoping to get it posted before I head to work in a couple hours.

            BASE SLIDER SET POSTED!

            Please remember that this is only the BASE for my sliders and that things will get much better from here. However, I believe these settings fix a few problems out of the box and improve the look and feel of gameplay.

            Enjoy!

                  Go ahead! Though the CPU does get some cheesy boosts at HOF, which is why I switched to Superstar.

                    This was a horrible game in terms of fg% me (knicks) and the cpu (lakers) struggle so much i forced so many shots my god. I loved this sliders it improved the defense one thing i noticed was more open cpu players but probably is the Knicks terrible defense i HOPE 2k doesn't mess this game because right now is almost perfect.

                      Yea it's definitely a challenge! AI Tendencies will see improvements in my next few updates. And I just realized I put a typo in the OP. It should say:

                      Shooting Foul Frequency - 73/68

                      I'll update that right away!

                        Right now, I'm in the 3rd quarter and the Blazers took 72 shots with 17 offensive rebounds to my 56 shots and 7 OR.

                          Just one of those games, apparently. I haven't seen anything close to that yet, but if it keeps happening beyond this one game let me know!

                            I'm also getting pretty inflated rebound numbers. I'm now 4 games into a mygm franchise with the Kings (1 on default superstar, 3 with these sliders) and Willie Cauley Stein is averaging 18 RPG. lol.

                            I'm assuming due to the fact that the CPU is putting up close to 100 FG a game and not shooting a particularly high % (~40%).

                            If you increased their shot sliders, scores would just get inflated.

                            One thing I find frustrating, is how often my players will lose possession of the ball sometimes immediately after receiving a pass and colliding with a CPU defender. Might just be an adjustment I need to make. I just assumed that wouldnt be an issue considering ball security was actually raised from the default (when I wasnt experiencing as many turnovers due to that).

                            Another note, I lost a game to the Mavericks down the stretch after they seemingly got like 6 straight and-ones in the final 6 minutes of the game. super frustrating. Oh well, the kings were supposed to be bad...lol

                            Liking the sliders so far!

                              In fast break situation, the CPU ALWAYS go for the hard mid range pull up instead of the easy lay up.

                              I reduced the mid range tendency, tweaked a bit the close/inside tendency, but still the same.

                              Why would they pull up at mid range when they're is no one defending lol.
