    To be fair, my results are from my current test sliders and not the BASE settings in the OP. The current base slider set will give realistic movement, on ball defense, and general player attribute improvements. But the tendencies and decision making haven't been shifted much from default sliders, so you won't see a lot of the improvements that I'm seeing.

    This update is just taking a little longer to fine tune than I anticipated. I've been up past 5am the last couple nights working on it AND I have a full time job, so I'm doing the best I can [emoji23]




    I wouldn't worry too much about it. For one, some fantasy draft teams might have a bunch of players who don't gel together and have conflicting tendencies. Play a few more games against other teams and I'm sure things will improve!

    Also, the settings in the OP are still just a BASE. Offensive tendencies and almost every aspect of team defense will see a HUGE improvement in my next update. Those are the two main points that control difficulty and CPU gameplay, and I know they're not at their best right now.

    They will be much better soon!




    What do you mean "set playcalling to 100"? Is this a setting I haven't seen?!
    Appreciate your work and passion, keep on it,i will wait happy

    Maybe "set playcalling to 100" it means in the coach plan of the opponent team, there, you can choose to run 100% of the time a play instead of running freelance offence, this maybe slow the opponent action

    I know i write so bad, my apologize guys
    I hope it undestand, i have to improve my english

      For some reason I thought they took that option out! Where do I go in the menu to change those settings? I'm at work so I can't check for myself.

        The slider "run plays", i take this img from a research on smartphone, maybe it's not the 2k18, but is the same

        Maybe it is in the roster settings, i am from smartphone but i remember the location

          Yea, I thought that's what you were referring to. My sliders a couple years ago relied on making edits to that setting. But when I went into roster creator I didn't see a "Run Plays" setting available this year.

          Am I just blind??

            The correct name is run plays, you can find it in gameplan-coach sliders

              It's in the roster settings, just keep hitting RT/R2. I tried game speed at 47 it slowed the CPU down from taking quick shots but I might just go back to default 50 and set run plays for every team to 100.

              Good set btw, I've been seeing more blocking fouls. Now if you can find a way to get point guards and shooting guards rebounds I'll be set, as of now no matter what team I play with my Center and PF are always double digits in rebounds while positions 1-3 barely get any.

                Check a few pages back. I was mentioning the same thing. Willie Cauley Stein leads the league in rebounds with 15+ with my Kings.

                  I spent a few minutes flipping through all the pages in the roster editor, not sure how I missed it!

                  And as far as rebounds being spread around more to the 1-3, no need to worry there. I actually have no idea what I did but the last few games I've played have had a good distribution of rebounds!

                    Have you tried making all the player movement sliders min 0 Max 100. It makes the players move true to their ratings, as apposed to redistributing their ratings between 30-70..

                      Yes I've tried it and it's absolutely ridiculous and unplayable with those settings. NO player in the NBA moves as ridiculously fast or as hilariously slow as players move with those settings.

                      Those settings don't cap players at certain speeds, it works as a scale to differentiate slow and fast players. At 70/30, you can still tell an obvious difference between players with above 70 speed, and players right at 70 or mid 60s in speed.

                        I'm hoping that wasn't a fluke. I hate seeing mediocre bigs with 15+ rebounds every game. In my last game Mozgov had 13 in the first half.

                          Had my reservations about HOF because I have always been smoked when going up to that level. I use real player % and am getting great results with my shooting percentages. Played back to backs with teams right on their average from last year. The games are competitive and I don’t feel cheated.

                          The only problem I’ve seen is big men and rebounds. Don’t think it’s correctable with sliders though. It’s worse than last year. I went for 38 and 24 with KAT.

                          Great set of sliders and they work with real shooting percentages turned on.

                            I have to agree with GR4Noles here. Finding a slider that actually promotes widespread rebounding (versus just being a "big man" stat) is hard to come by. In most versions I've played, it comes down to my big man pulling everything down (even if they aren't all that good at rebounding in the first place).

                                Sorry guys, needed the night off from testing 2K after work yesterday. I'm just headed home from work now and I'm diving back in, so hopefully I get something posted tonight!
