Super Star Level 360 PLayer Lock Sliders

[Playmakers]

PLAYMAKERS PLAYER LOCK SUPER STAR SLIDERS

These sliders are for those wanting to play on Super Star Level. Unfortunatley the only way to play on Super Star Level is with the Player Lock Feature turned On.

Because of the screw up in collision dection on this Level unlike All-Star Level you can't play it any other way or else no fouls will be called on the Human Player.

These Sliders are also based off my Global Ratings for all players. If your using DEFAULT ROSTERS with out any edits these might not work for you.

Here's the link to get the rosters now in email format. You can also get them in the NBA Live Roster forum section under Playmakers.

Sup PM. As you already know, I am a big fan of your sliders/ratings. Did you happen to work out all the bugs on Superstar? I remember you saying a while back that Superstar level does something weird or something to that effect. Thanks for your effort!

Yeah you it won't allow you to play the game normal on Super Star Level because it won't call any fouls on the human players.

But if you switch it to the Player Lock Feature it will play smooth and call fouls on both teams.

With Player Lock your players act mostly on their own. There is no switching on Offense or Defense. Some guy's will definetly stand out more for your team than others because you have no control over their shot accuracy. You can tell them when to shoot or pass but you can't decide how it's done.

On defense you can call zones, traps and different types of man defenses but you can't challenge shots or go for steals with anyone other than your Player Lock man.

But it's a great way to play especially if your looking for something different. This is where your players ratings really stand out the best simply because you can't play as any other team member.

Re: Super Star Level 360 PLayer Lock Sliders

Just played a half with Cavs(me) vs. Pistons. Lets just say that the Pistons are the BEST team in the NBA. They went 6/8 from 3PT. They led by 24 points lol. I felt like Mike Brown did after Game 1. I really like how PL makes the game more authentic, ya know?

What really suprised me was Rip. This guy was cutting and coming off picks for shots. He drove occasionally if the offense wasnt flowing smoothly. I think he had 13 at the half with 45% shooting. I dont know why but the CPU went to the line ALOT. The Pistons were 21/27 from the line(How ironic huh?) But overall, the level of competition on Superstar is dramatically increased. Keep up the great work, PM! EA might call you in for NBA Live 07

I have them attacking the rim more than they ever did when the game was at DEFAULT ratings. So, they can definetly get to the FT Line. But 27 FT's isn't really that high compared to real life. Most teams shoot between 25-30 FT's per game on any given night.

They definetly play much smarter on Super Star Level but you can't play the normal way it has to be with Player Lock. But that's not a bad thing really. I'm still playing a game with Detroit vs Miami and Dwayne Wade is sick in this game. He's giving my AI controlled Rip Hamilton hell in my game. The CPU actually throws alley oops out of half court sets if your careful.

I definetly think anyone wanting to play Live should give this FEATURE a shot it's very realistic IMO and you definetly need skilled AI teammates since you can do all the shooting and defense by switching off.

Re: Super Star Level 360 PLayer Lock Sliders

YOU MADE A GREAT DISCOVERY BUT I WAS MESSING AROUND AND I REALIZED THAT ALL U HAVE TO DO IS GO TO GAMEPLAY CONTROLS IN SUPERSTAR MODE BEFORE EVERY GAME, CYCLE THROUGH OFFENSE AND DEFENSE, TURN VIBRATION ON, THEN BACK OFF, AND THEN CYCLE THROUGH THE PLAYER LOCK POSITIONS UNTIL U GET BACK TO NO PLAYER LOCK, THEN OF COURSE YOU HIT START TO ACCEPT IT, AND NOW YOUR PLAYERS WILL CHALLENGE SHOTS WITHOUT YOU CONTROLLING THEM!!

Re: Super Star Level 360 PLayer Lock Sliders

With these changes this is by far the most realistic and best basketball experience i have ever had, man you guys have to play this on superstar. the defense is great and the computer offense makes great decisions.

Brilliant I'll give this a try and see if it works.



I'll post this on the main forum because there are quiet a few guys that want to play on this Level.

PM, what do you recommend for realistic gameplay as far as minutes and gamespeed on Superstar? I am planning on starting a season real soon! Thanks!

I haven't had time to test the situation without player lock and see if that works. But with Player Lock it's pretty good on 70 speed with 8 minute qtr's.

I'm definetly going to get around to testing it without player lock and see if that really works.

I've been really busy into getting a Legends Roster together lately.

So far it's looks great seeing Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan showcase their skill on NEXT GEN!

I got all their stats from EA's older game modified them to play right and it's been going pretty good so far. Bird is a beast with his sick outside shooting.

Thanks! The Legends Rosters sounds like a great idea. I am going to get a transfer kit so I can download them.

Hey Darren I tried this and it's not working for me.

I don't know if I'm doint something wrong or what but I went through each step just like you said and there were no fouls. No challenging shots or anything.

Then I switched it back to PLAYER LOCK ON and it played perfect. But with Player Lock off it doesn't give you any fouls.

I set up the CPU Strategy first then switched the controller over to my team and follow all your steps but nothing happend.

Anyways, Super Star is pretty amazing to watch the CPU play ball. I tested out my Legends rosters and Gary Payton through a sick alley oop to Shawn Kemp out of the half court set. Kemp spent off Jermain Oneal and just went sky high for slam.

I also saw my Created Jack Sikma shoot a jumper from the FT Line over Rick Smits. That was sweet because Sikma back in the days was one of those centers that could hit midrange jumpers.

Reggie Miller was blistering from outside on his own. He was firing at will whenever I got him the ball in posistion to shoot. All this was done on Super Star with Player Lock ON.

I just can't seem to figure out how you got it playing without Player Lock. But this is the Level I'm going to reccomend for playing with my Legends Roster for sure.

Re: Super Star Level 360 PLayer Lock Sliders

What's up playmakers this is a very good way to play the game. I used it for 3 games now and really like the feeling of the overall game even better. I have to perform as part of a team and it really makes you more responsible on the court. I have two questions that will make the game perfect for me.

How can I get more steals from my teammates on defense and how do I get Drew Gooden or Big "Z" to go up strong and dunk when they are in the paint?

It seems like they will be in posistion to dunk but they go for the layup. On the other hand the cpu's low post players will dunk without hesitation if it's there down low.

But this is really a cool way to play the game very competitive and challenging.
