Post game too efective this year?

Re: Post game too efective this year?

well the only thing I get alittle bothered by is that when people post these type of blogs...it really leaves you wondering how they play the game, because to me you have to get to the shooter before he gets ready to shoot the ball, and the biggest factor that I think of is TIMING...in real life if you don't time your shot contest you will probably get beat alot same as with passing, if you time it right your passes should get to their destination. I wish that when blogs like these are made that we can SEE how the player plays and why they think something is not working right (me included)

see the thing is it would be different and more credible if every body's settings and game were all set the same way....but the truth is most of us play the game totally different..(ie some people like to just shoot jumpers all game, while another person likes to isomoation people to death before shooting.....)...just sayin...that's probably why so many people go back and forth about issues with the game...

Re: Post game too efective this year?

you know fellas I was gonna make a post to say this but on second thought I will say it here.....

WE need to grow up ...(let me explain) I am looking at alot of these blogs for 2k11 ....mannnnn we have got to get back to talking about things that need to be talked about mostly as it relates to gameplay fixes or things that stop us from playing the game..like the game freezing or the controls being inoperable...I am seeing things like "too easy to steal" game not sim enough" too many passes intercepted" my balls are on fire...my lip is too big ...lol (i'm just sayin)...lol we are complaining about so much stuff that does nothing to help us play the game better...alot of these blogs are just peoples opinion and things like that most of these complaint blogs could be in the glitch thread or impressions thread........

can't we talk about strategy and game modes.....I like how this year started out with the Czar breakin down plays and their effectiveness and then we started getting videos on controls and how to use them in the game ...you know stuff that was helping us learn the game and how to be successful in it...but now it seems like every day or every other day someone starts a blog on things that just take up space on this site...where are the people who just are playing the game and looking for little insightful stuff to enhance the game playing experience....

it's stime to put an end to these baseless blogs that don't help us get anything solved....let's get back to having blogs that made OS become the relevant site that it is ....MATURE POSTERS>>>...just sayin

Don't shoot fadeaways?

What sort of response do you expect from anyone here in the forum? People have given you options and you continue to shoot them down. What do you expect as a resolution at this point? If people can't help you, what are you looking for?

No thanks, I want the game to force me to play smart, not me to ajust so it "looks" realistic. It should be realistic. If im down and I know I can score from the post, who would force himself to take less good shots and loose? Thats more like directing a realistic looking game than playing (virtual) ball. That would kill the fun for me, sorry.

Why am I making threads? First of all NOT to read posts that claim issues are not there which are clearly there. I noramly hope other people have the same problem and found a solution that I did not see (made a thread about the dunking thing and there I was given a solution), I did not ask people if they have the same problem or not, or if they think its improtant or if they care. Other people seem to have this (postup) problem too, but there seems to be no easy solution right now. 2k people read this board, so thats my second hope, maybe 2k guys will try and lead the league in scoring with Z and see that its patch-worthy.

Edit: oh yeah, inside scoring is ok as it is, lowerig the slider may town down the post shots, but then to may inside shots apart from the post play would miss. As I said the rest of the game is fine as it is

Man the way i see this thread going, is one dude pretty calmy talking about what might be a balance issue in his opinion, and some advice and opinions.

Then like so often happens on OS people pounce on him like he's whining or complaining about there perfect video game in a fairly arrogant tone..(a game that i love by the way, but does have some balance issues as every game of this caliber will).

Then he gets defensive because people can't just humbly give there 2 cents and starts to actually gripe about it even though that wasn't his initial tone or intention.

And what could have been a nice little chat turns into a bunch of knuckleheads spewing BS and created two rival teams that never should have existed. Uhhhh

Up & unders are more overpowered IMO b/c there is no option to keep your hands up on D while moving.

As for fadeaways, either time it right or double. I suggest you control the help defender.

Re: Post game too efective this year?

I didnt post this because I get killed a lot by the cpu, its way more because I can kill the cpu. I just dropped, only to test it once again, 28 with Z on (mostly) Milsap und Jefferson. The Cpu does not go in the post that often so its not a terrible issue against the cpu (of couse the fadeaway is money there too around 80%)

Postgame was useless in 2k10 because I could score every time with the post spin gettig to the basket. Why make a fade or a up and under if I have a way more succsess with a spin? Gladly, 2k blalanced that out fine in 2k11.

Bumping up difficulty or lowering the shooting slider wont solve this at all, because the rest of this game is fine and balanced. I dont wont to ruin another aspekt of the game just to make postup offense less effektive.

You cant be playing above superstar/sim,all cpu post players kill me

Re: Post game too efective this year?

I've noticed the same thing playing on all star/sim. For example playing against the Pacers, Roy Hibbert torches my team with jumpers from the post, even if he's being covered.

Re: Post game too efective this year?

Still having trouble defending the fade away?

Re: Post game too efective this year?

I understand what you mean but what I don't like is players like Joel Anthony scoring in the post game.
Some players with low post scoring post up and get the ball to score even when great defenders are defending.

I've learned to double team players in the post especially when they are hot. Adjusting defense will stop players from scoring in the post more often than not.

Re: Post game too efective this year?

^^I don't know about that^^

I would never double team a Joel Anthony, Kristic, or anyone one of those non post up. These guys are the easier to guard down low. I worry more about mismatches down low. Those guys miss without me even playing defense lol

Re: Post game too efective this year?

Wait you want ppl ti tell u how to play this game did tell pared ......no thanks.....how old are u ? no one should ask other ppl how to play the game.....if you think the cpu is to easy bump up to Hof or do alittle slider work...if all else fells play real gamers online from Os ....

No not Anthony, KG, Boozer, and other good post players... Boozer kills me in the post.

Teams with weak scoring PF's or C's I always cheat in the paint when they post up.

Maybe he is just trying to speak on something that should be fixed. That post fadeaway is too effective especially when used against the CPU. It might be related to ratings. Looking at my team you can see that low post shot is an inflated rating. Aldridge has an 89 and he isnt a great post scorer irl. Post defense and strength are deflated ratings. Guys like Camby and Pendergraph have 66s and 56s in low post defense. Pryzbilla only has a 60. Both of them and Pryzbilla have lower str ratings than Roy and Kobe for that matter. So when banging in the post Kobe can back down Pryzbilla.

Up & unders are more overpowered IMO b/c there is no option to keep your hands up on D while moving.

Good post

No thats what I mean...The weak PF's or C's...I usually play on ball vs then. And stop them pretty consistently. No doubles or shades. I let them take whatever shot they want. Because its going to be a miss.
