Re: NBA 2K9 Patch Released For 360/PS3, Impressions Here
portlandblazer will be releasing a new O.S OUTSIDERS roster soon.
good thing about my roster edits is the patch doesnt really affect the changes i made as i adhered to 2ks rating system just at a more accurate, balanced and simmed scale.
i had to redo the teams game tempos though. as i lowered the scale pre patch to counter the default simmed ppgs being too high.
its a damn shame 2k didnt FIX the simmed rebounds per game while they were at it though..it hurts seeing teams struggle to get over 40rpgs in simmed contests..
anyways. here is a season's simmed stats that i just generated.
ppg:
lakers 103.7
warriors 103.1
knicks 102.7
suns 102.1
wizards [arenas active] 101.3.
bobcats 90.4
pistons 93.7
rockets 94.1
76ers 94.5
blazers 94.6
a little lower than reality. and lower than what i previously had them prepatch. even though i significantly raised the game tempos of teams to their default base...i think 2k went a bit overboard with this change and neglected to test their results. as now team rpgs are even LOWER. and assists are a bit lower now too.
team rpgs.
warriors 38.8
knicks 38.7
lakers 38.5
mavericks 38.5
notice a pattern here. the teams with the highest game tempo coach profiles get the most rebounds per game.
warriors and knicks are both 100. lakers are 80. mavs are 75. and STILL the rpgs are waaaay too low. why didnt they adjust this as well!!! damn it 2k!
league leaders.
ppg:
lebron 28.1
wade 27.1
anthony 25.3
kobe 25.1
stoudemire 24.6
bosh 24.0
durant 23.6
j.johnson 23.0
k.martin 22.6
carter 22.3
RPGs
dwight 10.6
duncan 10.1
biedrens 9.3
bogut 9.3
bosh 9.3
stoudemire 9.3
lee 9.3
okafor 9.2
boozer 9.1
jefferson 9.0
low low low...lower than prepatch. and prepatch was bad enough. even when i redid the attributes and exxagerated star reb bigs minutes to get the rpgs up to standard..its worse now.
i just dont get why they didnt re adjust all the simmed stats. not just teams ppg!
APG
kidd 9.8
billups 9.7
paul 9.5
calderon 9.5
williams 9.2
nash 8.6
duhon 8.4
miller 7.6
conley 7.4
davis 7.3
yes they are a bit lower now. i had them near perfect prepatch. i have simmed a few seasons in testing my changes post patch and a paul did reach 10+apgs in a few of them. but yeah. 2k lowered the ppg scale too low and as i said neglected to test how this would affect the rest of the stats.
stls
paul 2.2
artest 1.9
iverson 1.9
davis 1.9
lebron 1.9
kobe 1.9
iguodala 1.8
kidd 1.8'
marion 1.8
ginobli 1.7
again. the scale is now a little lower than prepatch. at least its not as bad as rpgs.
blks
j.smith 2.9
ak47 2.6
duncan 2.6
camby 2.6
jefferson 2.4
dwight 2.4
w.chandler 2.3
granger 2.3
yao 2.2
bogut 2.1
but yeah. i got the simmed stats as on point as i can without fundamentally altering the games rating system.
im interested in how the insiders stats look in comparison.
i remember seeing stoyakovic being the hornets scoring leader lol...
so guys that use the O.S OUTSIDERS roster.. a new one is on the way. rejigged for the patch.Comment

I just did what you said and their is some great switching on picks the center shadows on the post ect... Thank you dude. I wonder why 2k made this backwards Less is More(to the left equals help and to the right is less help).Comment

yea iv noticed those but i remember seeing a youtube video of Lebron and Vince have a set of 2.0 packages of there own. Do you somehow unlock those on your own or will it be released on a random Roster Update?Comment

Re: NBA 2K9 Patch Released For 360, Impressions Here
Regarding post defense, I think what may of happened is I think they may have raised the jump height on shot block attempts. Tyrus Thomas just jumped out of the gym to block Bosh right then. But I do think they raised the jump height and ball tracking on blocks in the paint because I have seen a TON of blocks lately for anybody that tries to force their way in the paint for a shot. I used the Blazers last night against a friend who basically either shoots 3s or shoots layups and I had 5 blocks with Oden, 5 with Aldridge, 3 with Pryzbilia, 3 with Outlaw.
Do you know if they fixed bobby brown's(SAC) chin in the roster update?EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.Comment

everyone that does sliders on here keep putting the help d all the way to the right. that is totally wrong. I will not take credit for it but the guy that found it must have played ncaa football cause most of their sliders was like that.
Why don't everyone put the help d slider all the way down to 0. I'm telling you, you will see defenders cheat off of their man. It add so much more to give you that realistic D awareness.Last edited by grob23lbj; 12-03-2008, 05:35 PM.Comment

I just played 2 games online and the game is amazing online right now. Defense is everywhere, way more deflected passes, layups/hooksots ARE NOT money under the hoops anymore, the 3 point shooting has been toned waaaaaaaaaay down when you got a man in your face, freethrows are silky smooth now.
Great patch.........the online game in my opinion is FAR greater than it was just a day ago.
And I can find ranked matches with EASE now. No more waiting 20 mins until I finally get a game in.
Good times.Comment

I'm not that good with sliders nor do I have time to problem solve to get great results. What I do know is the single most important slider is the help d slider. Now that we figured it out it need to be updated in every slider makers posted sliders. If it is not someone need to communicate this info to them. I know they can add to it.
The help D sliders are backwards.Comment
