Re: Lut 16 thread

Because I love LUT I just hate the CPU cheese. Plus I need to beat all the challenges that's just how I am. Beat it and got a crappy Stoudemire. Yay me.....

Now get off my nuts.

They cpu cheese made me want to break the disc but they did make it easier I read on twitter. Just gotta upgrade my friend. Get Mike Conley if u need a stud defensive pg to stop the pg cheese.

Oh if I could play with my normal team I'd walk through these master challenges. It's the requirements that make it difficult. I'm done with Legends, throwbacks and rookies master challenges. Working on signature now but my 12 man lineup is pretty weak. Then after that I'll finish the bronze silver and gold ones. Working on the specialist ones last.

Re: Lut 16 thread

I saw a Shaq card with an asking price of 2 million yesterday. It looked different then any card I've seen before. The card was transparent, like ice/frost colored. What card is that?

Re: Lut 16 thread

I know this is small potatoes but I just started LUT.

I had a gold PG but it was a loaner. Used him to get through 2 of the rookie challenges and got a useful Richard Jefferson silver card on the AH.

I was browsing for a PG and looking for any nice ones cheap. Not much out there but on my 4th sweep I found a silver sig Kirk Hinrich for 850 BIN.

Didn't see any sig card for that price so I bought him.

I am used to FUT where you can see the value clearly of all cards. Did I spend too much? I mean he will fill the role of PG while I amass more coins so he is useful in that sense.

Re: Lut 16 thread

I dont know if this is just a LUT issue. I have played alot of games now and i noticed something because its that noticeable. Most of the time my team plays flat. Every once and a while my team will actually play up to its rating and my players will mop the floor with the cpu.

I have yet to figure it out but i wished they played like that all the time. I have a 89 rated team and there are alot of games where they play like they are a 78 rated team.

Welcome to cheap AI. That is how they decided to make the challenges harder by dumbing down your team.

Re: Lut 16 thread

Yep. All of EA's UT's use this model of making your team play poorly instead of making the AI smarter.

It makes LUT and all UT more cutthroat. What I mean is, if the CPU is going to let me slip backdoor and dunk on them then I am going to do that repeatedly. Or if they are going to allow slip screen slip outs for 3's keep shooting them.
In my opinion there is zero human cheese in UT vs the CPU. Whatever gets you the win is A-OK by me.

It's only fair because the AI has no qualms about weakening your team for no reason. Sadly UT isn't the place to find fair gameplay, but does this make the cpu a challenge? yes indeed, as annoying as that can be at times, it is a challenge.

In regular gameplay outside of UT I will play more varied and balanced.

Not exactly true.

FUT does not work this way. In FUT you need the chemistry of the team to be green (green links between players), and a minimum of yellow for your players to play at or above their level consistently. They use matching, country, team, manager, position, and league to create those chemistry links. There you can have an all star team that plays like 11 individual lost stars or 11 cohesive teammates that play like a cohesive unit no matter the overall rating.

I don't play LUT often, which is almost embarrassing with as much as I play,(I just open my free packs from time to time), but I planned on starting soon.

My question is, is there any chemistry linkage like this in LUT on the surface or underneath that can be referenced for team cohesion like the same college or pro teammate? ...or is it just a collection of All Star Players?

example:If I create a All-Lakers LUT team (Shaq, Kobe, Magic, Worthy, Kareem) , do they inherently play better than the NBA team of mash-up stars (Olajuwon, Chamberlain, Bird, Lebron, Curry)?

Re: Lut 16 thread

I don't see anything in LUT along the lines of FUT chemistry. NHL has some chemistry. Does Madden? I can't remember.

And you are correct sort of.

The way you write it is the ideal.

But the reality is, when EA wants to get unfair with the AI it happens, no matter your team or chemistry level.

To make it even crazier, rage quitting is useful. I have rage quit in FIFA probably 13 or so times in FUT, yes you lose a contract, but the CPU is so much more tame when you come back and play it again.

If you ever played Tecmo the EA OP AI is exactly like that one game in a season of Tecmo where the CPU was unbeatable. Tecmo restricted it to one game. With EA, it can happen at anytime to anyone. Luckily it is generally just a match or a game. It doesn't seem to change on the fly during the game. You know it's being served to you early on.

Not saying this is happening all the time. It's just when EA wants to get jiggy and tear your heart out. Most are saying this is occurring in the Masters challenges.

Haven't played fut or hut but I know for a fact ea makes the cpu cheese like crazy in mut n lut.
