Anyone have any idea how to get more FT attempts for the CPU?? I have it on allstar, strict penalties.

Re: Free Throw attempts
Unfortunately this is still an area that really needs to be tweaked. I think if they fixed the collision detection problem that has plagued this game since in first came out you would get more free throws for your team and the cpu.
The area that really is of major concern to me is when you or the cpu drives the lane. There is little to no contact being made most of the time which is impossible and not realistic, and is where most of the fouls would be called. -

Re: Free Throw attempts
I don't know how I do it, but I average anywhere from 19-28 FT's a game, which is extremely realistic to me. I usually get in the bonus with around 2 minutes to go each quarter, and sometimes sooner. I have been getting fouled on jumpers, 3 PT'ers, and drives to the hoop. I am absolutely in sim heaven right now. At the first of the year, I was playing more of a run and gun, but now I have learned every play in our arsenal, and utilizing each player, which is drawing the fouls I think.Twitter - WTF_OS

Re: Free Throw attempts
That's great! I run with the Pacers and love using the playbook, but the only thing I can manage on a regular basis is reachin fouls. I have fouls set to strict, but I seem to drive the lane with ease and rarely get fouled on a jumper. Maybe it's just me, but it seems like it's just too easy to drive the lane, and there just doesn't seem to be any realistic contact when going to the hoop. At least that's the way it is when I play.
wtferrell how about posting your settings, or better yet email me your settings at [email protected] I would love to get as many ft attempts as you get. That would put me in sim heaven to!

Re: Free Throw attempts
Well that's O.K. Cause I found out what the problem is. Players are running right through one another. I though this was fixed, but it isn't. I was playing against the Nets and I tell you the truth, Kidd repeatedly clip right through Tinsley to get open for a jumper, and on 3 different ocassions clip his way through 3 defenders for a layup. I wish I was exaggerating or just seeing things, but I'm not. I watched the replays over and over just to be sure.
This has really killed my enthusiasm for playing video bball this year. I sure hope this is addressed in the next addition of ID2005.

Re: Free Throw attempts
To get more FTs you need to do lots of editing. It sucks but what can you do.
You need to raise the blocking rating of all the PGs, SGs and SFs to 80-85. If a player is a known shot blocker, make it 95-99. Every PF and C gets 90-99.
These edits will get you more FTs cause the blocking is more aggressive. Another thing that I recommend is lowering all PG, SG and SF short range shooting skills to a maximum of 25. This will cut down the ridiculous number of and 1's.
It's strange but I don't see 15 blocks a game by the CPU or my self. In fact, only now I seem to get enough blocks by the CPU. Although you can block too much with a high jumping guard or forward if you really try to.Comment
