I do all my testing as CPU vs CPU as whether I play Sim or not will affect the CPU stats and I don't feel like you get true stats this way.

Anyway - 10min Quarters seems to have nearer the right amount of possessions/ shot attempts - therefore rebounds, assits and turnovers as the cpu does shoot early in the clock often.

Is there an offensive awareness slider for each player as maybe if you lower this universally the cpu won't shoot when it considers itself open. This worked I think with 2K games.

A reason why I won't decrease the offensive awarness slider is because star players begin to become less aggressive. Last year this was an issue (along with off ball awareness) where players would be less agressive and there would be less movement around.

One thing that I've done is increase the fatigue factor from 50 up to 70. This will force teams to go to their bench more, where reserves are not as aggressive as their star players, and will likely eat up more of the shot clock. And reduced the CPU Offensive rebounding to 35 to help curve the second shot attempts a little.

I've also increased the CPU interception ability (to see more turnovers by the CPU controlled players and possible less shot attempts...we'll see)

yeah I see it. It may work, but in a dynasty mode, its no good. Your free agents, and drafted players will still have high Ver and Agi.

Made some final edits and went to go look at players overall ratings, and they are unaffected.

Played with the settings on the first post (minus the fast break anticipation modification)

I know the CPU fast breaks are low. I modified the fast break anticipation global rating for all player (+10) and offensive awareness (+10) to anticipate more fast breaks. Also you're going to have to take into consideration who the CPU is utilizing.

The Knicks lack an offensive elite go to guy, hence why they don't have as many shot attempts as we've seen (100+ in some cases).

Turnovers were about what you see in an NBA game, but with every turnover, it means one less shot attempt, so this is very welcomed.

Once again, before the Fast Break Anticipation edit. On average you see about 10-12 per team; however, teams like this, Suns and Mavs you should see 18-20 IMO.

UPDATED 10/12/2009 Final

To start off, this game plays very well out of the box. With each itiration of NBA Live, less slider modificaitons are needed. A lot of that is thanks to the Dynamic DNA which is allowing players to play more like themselves.

Sim heads like myself love to play 10-12; however, in the past stats weren't very sim like. Initially when you play the game, the stats will appear sim like; however, I think its part of re-learning how to play NBA Live after their drastic changes this year. Once you adapt, stats (especially shots taken and FG% become inflated). That's expected with any game (the more you play it the easier it becomes).

One a final note:
I'm very dissapointed in the Live development team from preventing users to search for uploaded content to the EA Locker. There is a work around, you have to know the user's gamertag, find them on the leaderboards and access their profile to view their content and download it. For those who want to go that route:

As promomised, enjoy. Any and all feedback would be greatly appreciated:

Do you have to change the global player edits each after DNA update?

Do you have to change the global player edits each after DNA update?

For your Dynasty No. For anything else, more than likely you'll have to do the global updates. No one knows for sure 100%, Developers haven't chimed in on this yet, it's been discussed on other threads by the community.

Good job on the sliders. Made the game more enjoyable. Am about to start my Dynasty with this set, it doesnt bother me if some stat lines are a bit off, what's important is that it plays better. The games I played yesterday were really great. Even if I ended up losing, never got the feeling of being "cheated" out.

Thanks. I've lost to the Bulls and the Pistons in my Dynasty mode about 16 games into the season now. I've had a few close games where I came out on top. It felt good losing, frustrating (but in a good way).

The reason why I play on All-Star mode is because there seems to be a boost to the CPU abilities (2nd and 4th quarters). I feel because of this it balances out the users ability to overcome the CPU, and thus creates runs back and forth. The CPU boost in those quarters appear to be temporary and can be overcome by slowing the game down, running plays and taking good shots...like a real basketball game.

Appreciate the feedback. This morning was my final, so you may want to adjust as needed.

Once again, thanks for the feedback.
