      Raise the Ball Security slider. Body-Up Sensitivity controls animations from nearby defenders, not losing the ball due to a collision.

        Hello!

        After a month of testing to get the most realistic scores in a game where it is CPU vs CPU, I can say that I have achieved the most realistic stats. Here's how:

        1) Set the sliders to PRO.
        2) Set all fouls frequency to 100.
        3) Set movement speed and acceleration to 50 with or without the ball.
        4) Start the game without controlling any teams.

          i have played with all of your sliders so far, and one thing still wont work right until 2k fix it, and that is the 3 point shot. Me and my brother played as OKC against the Knicks who have Roberson, 25 open, contested and off dribble 3 point shot. He shot 4/6, while players much better than him shot worse. But the problem is really this isnt the first time, it was also present in previous 2k games, same thing if he is on a cpu controlled team he hits them like he is curry, but if he is on our team he is so bad, its not even funny, mind you we are not controlling him, we use position lock, so if he is open, which most times he is since he doesnt have a 3 point shot, he misses the shot. Now i want to slide it down for 3point success but that wont make a difference since if the cpu is open, doesnt matter if the player is good or not he will make it.
          Another thing thats almost 90% happening is wrong fouls calls, the ball is rejected first, yet because the hand touched the player after, they call a foul. I dont know if this is because of the sliders or are we playing that bad, but looking on replays they will call a clear block a foul if the player is touched after the block.
          The third thing is defending. Why are we getting msg that the defender smothered or was closely guarding us when he wasnt even in position to do anything but watch our crotch or the back of our head. This is really messing up some clearly wide open shots, just because the defender was near and was just looking at us. Is there an option in the sliders that tinkers with this so i can adjust it to more be more realistic.
          Also i am kind of torn on rebounding, on the one hand our centers and other players are getting rebounds, but because i play as a PG i cant jump, i wont argue about the feltons of the NBA but westrbook has a good vertical and can jump for the ball. Now before the 1/1 i was getting 10 rebounds easy because the jumping didnt feel like he had a 100lbs west on him, but our team wasnt rebounding well, now our bigs have good boards, and i can still rebound if i am lucky to catch the ball, but jumping still feels stiff and not realistic.
          Even with all of this we have yet to lose a game and are 30/0 but some games are really boring because of these things. Anyway the overall sliders are good, and keep up the good work.
          P.S. What is it with injuries, almost every game is a 70% risk of injury. Maybe wear and tear has something to do with it, but i have no idea how to fix it, all of our star players have wear and tear on the same position, knees, ankles, feet and hips. How is this negated

            Yea, some things you just can’t fix with sliders. Players should USUALLY play like themselves (bad shooters missing jump shots, good shooters making them) but sometimes 2K decides differently.

            To lower the frequency of “well contested” shots, you just need to lower the Jump Shot Defense Strength (Gather) slider. I don’t recommend this though, as it effects AI defensive rotations (not drastically, but it does make things a little easier).

            With fouls, you can’t really correct that issue without making it TOO difficult to draw fouls. I’d rather have an accurate amount of free throws and a few BS calls, than have no BS calls but not enough free throws. I think it’s unfortunately a limitation of the game engine.

            I’ve seen a few people tweaking the durability slider to lower the amount of injuries but I haven’t taken a look at it myself yet. Try increasing that to 60 or 70 and see how it plays. If your issue is more related to simulated injuries, you’ll have to tweak the MyLEAGUE sliders for that!

              If I am looking to make the game harder what are some things I should change in the slider set?

                    I mean the easiest change is shooting success.

                      All you have to do is take your shooting sliders down to 45

                        Patch 1.05 is out for the PS4!

                        “Adjusted shooting foul frequency, especially for well positioned and high rated blockers.”

                        Depends what you find is “too easy”. When it comes to difficulty it’s all pretty common sense for the most part. If you have a high FG% loser your shot success sliders. If the CPU doesn’t shoot well enough, increase theirs. If your defense is too strong, lower the USER On Ball Defense. If the CPU doesn’t defend well enough, increase theirs. Etc etc.

                        I’ll be working on an update now that the patch has been released! Any feedback on what is “too easy” would be greatly appreciated. While I try to make this set as realistic and welcoming to all skill levels as possible, I have no problem adding a few optional tweaks for those who need more of a challenge!

                          I have used your sliders as my 1st Guinea pig on 2k18 as I found Hall of Fame default difficulty feels like it's scripted.

                          By scripted, i mean on one game CPU can be beaten easily and it's as if CPU wants you to win but on the next game, they're so skilled and almost all shots went in.

                          Onto my question, for all of us that have little time on hand due to other commitments in life, what would you say the ideal sim minutes for stats/mins to be normalised to, for 6 mins setting game? I have used the default 12 mins sim and it blows out the stats out of proportion. Scoring 24 points mean 48 points. I do understand if it is a matter of preference / trial n error.

                            Yea, it really comes down to trial and error for that part. If you’re good at putting up 24 points in 6 minutes, you might have to set it to normalize at 8 or 9 minutes!

                            Oh and trust me, I’ve got very little time on my hands as well these days. If this was 4 years ago I would have perfected the game by now with all the free time I used to have [emoji23]

                              While I got you here bro, what keyword should I use to search for your slider? Save me time in inputting 1 by 1; i assumed the one uploaded is the latest one?

                              And I presume your slider is for PS4?

                                Has anybody had trouble in myleague with lack of freethrows on simulated games ? esspecially FTA of star players ..

                                For me for example no matter which sliders i use, when i simulate half a season boogie, AD, Antetokoumpo and players like them average only 5-6 FTA per game
