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

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

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 literally logged into my account to say THANK YOU! This works great for CPU vs CPU games

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

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

Sliders don’t effect simulated games, unfortunately. Only a custom roster with tendency edits can fix those issues.

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?

I haven’t uploaded them to 2K Share yet. If someone else did I’m not sure what the name or what version would be uploaded :/

I’ll get them uploaded once I post my next update!

Any changes to CPU players not attempting blks or steals in the passing lanes?

Luckily that’s an easy tweak that anyone can make based on personal preference/skill level. For the CPU to attempt more blocks just increase their Contest Shots tendency, and for more attempts at intercepting passes increase the CPU Play Passing Lanes tendency (also increase the Hands attribute to make them BETTER at stealing passes if you’d like).

Relax bro. And by it, I meant the game entirely so... back to my question Eccentric when you get chance.

Patch 1.05 is out for the PS4!

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

[emoji50]




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'm having to much success no matter what I do. Game is 2 easy no matter the sliders.

Currently got jump shot defense sliders set to 20

Cpu on ball defense at 90. Defense awareness/consistency at 90. Shooting sliders at 57.

Cpu is not good at running offense and 99% of what they do feels scripted. Think my issue is roster tendencies.

If you are finding the CPU too easy I would suggest a few changes to your described sliders -

Increase Jumpshot Defense (Gather and Release) to 50. Your setting at 20 will make way too many shots score.
Decrease Human shooting sliders to the 50-52 range.
Where do you have Contest Shot? Increase it.

How are your rebounds? Steals? Turnovers? Fouls? There is a lot to consider.

Did you base your sliders on the OP? It does not sound like it given your slider settings. Try the v4 sliders on the first page and then see how it plays. Adjust from there.

Yep started with op sliders. I can hold the cpu to under 30% without defensive settings.

Rebounds are great. To many cpu uncontested rebounds but haven't seen settings that fixes this.

Free throws are decent. My freethrows depend on how aggressive I play. Cpu gets 20ish on 11 minute quarters.

I'll say league average turnovers. 10-15.

I go back and forth from eccentric and shadymike. Current sliders started as eccentic sliders.


I play with Kings, pacers, and wizards 99% of time.

Is there a way to change this hip riding blow by animation ?

Just tested it vs Kawhi using Prince from Atlanta

I just called iso play after pla and i could just sprint on him and have this animation all the time.

Increase CPU Lateral Quickness, that should make the defender better able to stay in front!

Like I said before, I need to know exactly what aspects aren’t difficult enough. There’s no “make the game harder” slider so I need some specifics!

Yea those Jump Shot Defense Strength sliders need to be heavily increased. With them set to 20 you might as well not even have a defense out there. Players will sag off perimeter shooters, have slow close outs, and won’t put much effort into contesting shots.

Also to make the CPU better at on ball defense, try increasing the Lateral Quickness slider. This will help the CPU stay in front on defense and not get beaten so easily. Leave USER Lateral Quickness at 0 though!

Tendencies are pretty terrible with the default roster and there’s not a lot I can do so far to fix these issues. No matter what I do the CPU will still put up too many midrange shots on fast breaks, and run terrible plays that usually result in a rushed 3.

I did hear that their is a roster with tendency AND playbook edits but I haven’t checked on it in a few weeks. I’ll have to give it another look!

Yeah jump shot defense is one of my issues. Cpu slider is set to 20 and human is at 35. Gives me a slight chance to make some contested shots. Mainly because I have most cpu sliders in the 90s.

I think the most important slider is the lateral quickness. Low get some good looks and ball movement is nice. Biggest con when high is makes the game extremely robotic and everyone moving one to one.

I'll start at 35 and work my way up. I'm on PC and haven't got latest patch but hoping it makes things a little better.

Appreciate the reply and the sliders.

The CPU team starts off hot and then by the end of the first quarter, they’re down by like 10-20. Missing jump shots open or contested. Missing lay ups. And it’s like they never recover.
