Re: The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

i play with the magic as well, and i'm 5-0, and i have dwight averaging 12.4 rebounds per game. i know these sliders are final and all, but rebounds among individuals are much lower than in real life...also i havent shot under 50% yet with these sliders, though ft attempts are realistic...those are my only 2 complaints, any suggestions?

Rebounds are lower because teams tend to shoot better, especially at the start of the season. But 12.4 for Dwight is not that bad. In 5 games I'm averaging around 9 with Howard. I'll wait till 10 games played, then I'll consider lowering both some HUM and CPU shooting success sliders by 1 click.

Hey i gotta quick question for you guys.......I have used the final settings with these, using Geebo's rosters, and using the lakers in my assoc. The first game i played I got blown out by 28, out rebounded by 15, and shot 39% from the floor. The next game at phoenix, i lost by 15, outrebounded by 9 (vs the suns?!) and shot 35% from the field. I run my offense thru Gasol b4 Kobe, and i cant understand why Im gettin my arse handed to me......I dropped the difficulty down to pro, and I still lost to GS by 9 (was down by 26 at one point). I cant shoot on here to save my life and my defense comes and goes in lil mini-spurts. I wish i would have saved more of my stats but I just turned the game off and say screw it.......Im sure these are good sliders, cuz a lot of people are using them, i just cant understand why im struggling like i never played this before. Thanks for the help....

hey mate, I'm no expert but this is how I play

I take time to get my defensive match ups right before the game, as in the pressure on and off ball, play tight on the obvious eg the good shooters and sag off all but maybe the 3 or 4 main match-ups, that allows the cpu controlling your players when you don't have them selected to rotate more.

Play man to man and ensure you have that selected, zone kills me (maybe no others) it gives too much space and too much space will lead to controller throwing haha.

Don't be afraid to get a rhythm going down low before going for the FG's.....take the oppurtunites to get the fouls, as well as the And 1's.....free throws are crucial to winning in this game (I have my difficulty at 100 so I don't just coast with shooting fouls)

If you think you have an open jump shot.....think again. By it's very nature, you are going to miss open shots, the only way they consistently going in, is if your player is hot......so get the easy buckets first if possible

On offense, play to your players strengths, get familiar with there shot release.....know where they shoot best form eg, I shoot a lot of fade aways with Paul Pierce due to his amazing tendancy to it....

Finally, when on defense, control the point guard as much as possible, but when the ball is in a major threats hand, change player. I mostly control every player......as in switch constantly to cut off cuts, curls eg......do NOT leave players open outside, you will get burned....

I know it's been said HEAPS but you seriously HAVE to play slow (when not clearly making your run), set your plays, pick your shots wisely and play smart.....the cput will ALWAYS go on a run to lower the margin, I've been up by 25 once and lost by only 9.....it's the nature of the beast....but it's much more rewarding.

Like I said im not expert, if there was a tournament with big money up for grabs I wouldn't bother haha but I have 11 wins 1 loss so it works for me.

You mentioned rebounds, I get out rebounded in most games....it's to do with shot success, lower the shot sliders if it really gets to you but for me I can deal....my big men get a good average of just under 10 with double double performances every now and then.

Hope that helps a bit

I 've played about 15 games in my association with these sliders (5-10). Getting blown out by bad teams.

Rebounding I don't get at all! Get out rebounded a lot by poor rebounding teams.

Jump balls are a joke in the 4th! Lost 2 jump balls using D12 vs DJ Augustine & Ridnour.

My biggest problems!

The cpu is unstoppable in the 4th no matter what!

Cpu don't miss FT's when running! Redick (3-7) yet Reggie Evans & Kwame Brown 100%?

I play great D and the cpu shoots a 25+ footers with 2 secs left that goes in everytime.
Players like K Brown, Reg Evans, & Thabeet are great 15-18 foot shooters under 3 secs.

Frequent inbound passing turnovers is terrible and predictable (especially when the cpu running).

Re: The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

I can't too, I'v try and try and try but after too qt the cpu got + 15 / + 20 every time, it's just incrdible, I don't know what to do...

Love the game in all star but it totaly and definitly scripted .

RAAAAH ****in frustrating

Cesco, are you always in pro level or not ?

Can you post your tweak if your always with pro ?

Re: The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

Played my first game with this sliders and Geebo´s rosters V6.

Here are the things that i didn´t like:
- too many crazy turnovers (me especially, but also the cpu)
- 9-1 in blocked shots for me! Cpu just doesn´t block enough!

Everything else was ok! I shot 47%, the cpu 48%, we had around 13 steals each, i liked the flow of the game, i didn´t see that crazy SG shooting everytime he caught the ball, i wen´t to the line 20 times, the cpu 22 times... it was a good game!

I lost of course (me Knicks vs cpu T-Wolves), but mainly because i shot 15 times less then the CPU (because of all the turnovers i had...). If not, i might have had a shot at winning this thing!

Hi there Mourf. No I'm playing All-Star and got the grip on it. I'm 6-2 in my association with Orlando. CPU is dangerous but now I can contain it. Try to play easy on defense (yes easy, just try to stay always between your man and the basket), sag off players who drive all the time and play tight on all the shooters. Know where your players shoot best. For example the Turk is very versatile but the worst rating he has is on mid jumpers. I NEVER make him shoot mid jumpers, I try the three or else I drive for the paint, because he's very good on close and inside. He often scores this way or get a foul. It's pretty awesome this way.

Be patient on defense again. Stay in front and the contest shoot slider will help you on the drives by the opponent.

My only concern is FG%/Rebounds. My FG% after 8 games is 48% and CPU is 49% but going down every game. In my last game I grabbed 42 rebounds and Howard 11 (finally!) but my average is still 36 RPG. I only put 64 shooting foul slider because the CPU was committing double the fouls I did (I control every player on defense, I switch), and now it's better for me.

I'll post my averages after 10 games.

Re: The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

Ok... exactly what i've seen

Yesterday I've did Boston @ Lakers , the first quater was good, play cool and concetrate and like you say in your post , Lead by +1 at the end...

During the second it's become hell on heart, i've missed all and I try lot of things for contain them but nothing work.

I'm sad cause it's so real and I see real nba Bball like Greenie has say but I have the impression that the most little mistake cannot be recoverable cause cpu take +12 then 20 in few minutes.

I sag off all player at the first minutes but seems don't work in the 2d QT the boost they take after ther first timeout is unstopable.

What rosters do 360 owners use with these sliders? How much does changing the team/coaching tendencies change the game?

I've been using A&S's slider set, but am thinking of trying these out for a bit until he comes up with his new All-Star set.

Take Rashidi's the real 2K roster, they're cool.

Re: The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

Just played my first game with these sliders (also first game on all-star). I was the Thunder at home against the Bulls. All stats are listed Bulls-Thunder:

Points 132-117
Field Goal % 58-54
3 Pt % 31-57 (I was 11 for 19; Durant and Westbrook made 6 straight early)
Free Throw% 82-92 (both teams went to the line 28 times)
Assists 30-21
Turnovers 12-21
Rebounds 39-28
Points in Paint 60-38
Fast Break Pts 20-0

I attribute a lot to me not having played in a while and then jumping up to all-star. Shooting %'s are a little high but I'll give that some time to see if it levels out.

Derrick Rose went for 34 pts, 13 ast, and 3 steals.
Ronnie Brewer had 23 pts, 8 boards, 4 ast, and 3 steals.

Durant had 41 pts, 3 boards, 3 ast, 2 steals, and 2 blocks.
Westbrook had 27 pts and 10 ast.

You have to keep trying. I've passed through a lot of frustration too before winning some. And please, don't sag off everyone! Just sag off players who drive all the time (look at tendencies in the coaching menu) and C and PF who like the post thing. But watch out for people like Big Z and Bargnani, don't sag off them just because they are C! Play tight off ball too on good perimeter shooters, the ones who come off screens and pop a mid jumper or a 3.

Damn I lost my next game vs the Raptors, a Bargnaniless Raptors! Lost by 1 in OT! But I grabbed a ton of rebounds and Howard went again for 11. Numbers are settling, but CPU commits much more fouls than me so far, so I gave +2 to Human in the shooting fouls slider to see what happens. Also I lowered 1 click the Hands slider, because both me and CPU are averaging between 9 and 10 steals per game. I know this will go at the expense of turnovers, but it's a test. And I lost the Turk for 2-4 weeks! These are corrections made to cope with my style of play, they don't want to be universal. So stick with the original set, try to be competitive and maybe then adjust to your liking.

Re: The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

so has anyone solved the rebounding problem yet? i remember early on everyone would get 45-55 rebounds a game, and now i can barely get 40...offensive rebounding really doesnt bother me, just total rebounding. as a cavs fan, i saw us get outrebounded by the magic 61-30...that cant happen with these sliders. i know theres a seperate thread talking about offensive rebounding, and im wanting to know if anyone has a sou.lution for me and probably everyone else on the rebounding problem.

also, i know alot of you guys use the magic, and im a little confused why j-rich is such a good rebounder...he's always yanking down the boards when d12 is right next to him

i guess what i really want is the occassional game with a player getting a ton of rebounds

thanks guys! ohh, and thank you greenie!!! thanks for all the hard work, much appreciated
