PM have you started any sliders?

[kennytomson]

just curious if you've given sliders any thoughts yet, or what do you see has issues that need to be adressed. what are your thoughts on default game speed, faster or slower?

my thoughts: seems for realistic subs and scores quarters need to be set longer than 8 mins.

i'm sure i'm not the only one waitng to see what adjustments you might make.

You gotta give him time man he does more than just tweak the sliders for Live he does the cpu's offense and defense and stuff. Plus it looks like he stayed up pretty late trying to figure out the sliders this year. He posted already in the impressions thread about what your speaking about right now. Just give him time everyone knows the guy will get it done. He posted a few things in here that were interesting to read.

Re: PM have you started any sliders?

I’ve found 10 min quarters work for a realistic score say, 102 -94 or what have you. Other stats seem to fit as well in terms of rebounds and assists. Only problem I’m having is starters going 36 min and maybe 3 subs getting 2-4 min. I also didn’t notice a fatigue slider, does this mean someone is going to have to go through every player’s fatigue rating to fix this? And maybe it’s realistic, but it seems the cpu doubles to quickly in the post. If the center is better than average player you can’t even get in the ‘back-down’ before the ‘I’m about to lose possession’ animation. Fouls were few and far between, I think this slider needs to be increased alot. Shot maybe 3, computer 2 in my 10 min game.

Do you have AUTO SUBS turned on?

I have only played 5 minute qtr's so far but I do agree the minutes will have to go up because the scores are will be really low. As for the CPU double teams they will come quicker this year to force you to pass the ball and take a jumper. It can be a pain in the azz but they doing what helps them to win games on defense. I usually just draw the double kick it out and then go right back to post and make my move quicker.

As for Sliders I'm working on them I just needed time to figure out the new slider sput in for this year. I spen last night messing with me and seeing how they work. There are some very good sliders EA added this year for gameplay and they work pretty good.

I also forgot to mention you need Auto Subs turned on and Increase Fatigue Effect.

Re: PM have you started any sliders?

The quick double teaming in the post is frustrating because I like to work the post game sometimes as well. I would rather kick it out for the jumper 70% of the time, but the other 30 I'd like to work it down low. That's kinda frustrating, but it's nothing unmanageable.

Also, the PGs are scoring a crap load from the top of the key. This might be my crappy defense, but it's something I've noticed.

For right now you could increase your On BALL DEF ASST Slider to 100 and Lower the CPU's MID Range Shooting to 45

What about speed

Re: PM have you started any sliders?

What about speed

I like the Speed at 100 using the Press Camera view with the Height at 10 and Zoom at 3

I set my Man to Man Defense for C's and PF's to High Pressure and PG's, SG's & SF's to Medium Pressure.

I was ready to take Live 07 back, it felt weird having to wait to square up, it felt like there was helium in the ball with the high arching shots, when I raised the speed top 75, Live felt familiar again. I've heard so many people taking it back due the "lag" when all they had to do was raise the speed. what a shame, i'm glad to see it at 100, it makes such a difference.

Yeah at 100 this year it isn't bad at all. Last year the speed dictated how fast the CPU would play and it made them fast break like crazy.

But this year I haven't had that problem and I've yet to mess with their fast breal sliders. I play Cleveland with it on 100 they using 10 minute qtr's and they scored 40 points by halftime finished the game with 93 points.

I play the Spurs and they scored 89 points with the speed at 100 still.

If anything the game moves at a quicker pace but it doesn't jack up the scores and not all teams will fast break all game. I'm not using the DEFAULT Camera as I mentioned I prefer the Press Camera and the Cable Camera works pretty good aswell.

I personally don't care who likes the game and who doesn't I'm finding ways to make it play better for me because I'm starting to really enjoy it alot more. The jump shooters have to square up and set their feet then release the ball like you would in real game plain and simple. If don't like doing things that way then you won't like the game.

Re: PM have you started any sliders?

i've found that decreasing the game speed slider makes it play much better.

the crossovers aren't so rushed that way. and the dunk animations aren't so akwardly fast either. they flow better between animations too.
you can also find your release point better.
it just plays smoother and less frantic all together this way for me.

i'll have to give 100% a try though later because playmakers seems to know what he's talking about.

I agree with you that slowing the speed does show all the animations better I stated that before when the game first released. But in the halfcourt set the players move quicker with speed at 100.

I've gone back forth with a lower settiung and faster setting and to be honest I think it is really going to come down to which one you feel comfortable with because I've seen good things both ways.

Speaking of good things has anyone played Cleveland yet?

I'm playing them right now and LBJ is running PG for Eric Snow. They ar resting Snow and LBJ moved over from SF to PG in the 3rd qtr right now. I didn't even change his secondary posistion and they still are playing him at PG which totally cuaght me by surprise..................

Yeah, I got my arse handed to me by Cleveland earlier tonight and LeBron was everywhere. He played point, and rather well I might add, for a little while, they game him some catch & shoot plays, and some post plays too. Like you said, good things.
