Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

OK, I've been able to tone things down a bit on GOAT by setting all sliders to default (5) and then lowering the 3 CPU sliders (Off AWR, Def AWR, Output) to zero. Even with speed at 5, it seems to be better than with it at 3.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

Man, that lasted one freaking fight.

Is there ANY way to tone down the freaking counters on jabs? I'm seriously wondering why you would ever throw another jab.

If I jab, I eat counters. There's no need to explore my opponents defense. Move in, block and weave, hit him with counter hooks/uppercuts. It's the only way to win.

I think I am a bit of an adrenaline junkie, lol. I love the anticipation of the idea that for me or him the fight could be over with one shot. I can't snowboard (ear issues), and can't box in real life (average athlete and reflexes), but I can do this.

You just have to time the jab, man. Like any of the punches on GOAT. If the bell rings and you step up and jab right away you'll get countered (trust me on that one). Pace yourself, look for a weakness, and exploit it.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

So I reset all sliders to 5 and raised both CPU AWR sliders to 10 and played a game on pro, RJJ vs. Adamek. Completely dominated him as expected.

So I changed the Difficulty to Champion and left everything else as is. Had a GREAT fight, RJJ vs. Adamek again.

I won every round due to work rate but we were both stunned a few times. I finally knocked him down twice in the 8th and he didn't get up after the 2nd one.

I landed 53% and he landed 52%. The only problem is I threw 1117 punches to his 581.

Better switch to sugar-free kool-aid. (just kidding) I think I know why your hands get cramped, though.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

Yeah I know. It's the only way I know how to win!

Anyway, just fought against Eddie Chambers with Tyson and beat him in an 8th round knockout. The punch output was more even, but actually WORSE - 892 for me vs !!!855!!! for him. I connected on 50% but he connected on a whopping 63%.

I guess I'll just keep trying.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

Oops! I had it set to 3-minute rounds. No wonder the punch output was so high.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

So yeah, I'm done. No more sliders until the DLC. I can't deal with it anymore, it's ruining the game for me. Going back to Pro and playing a Legacy to get achievements.

[parker002]

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

Here's the sliders I'm gonna use for Legacy, if anybody is still playing on Pro. They're about as competitive as Pro is going to get.

Difficulty - Pro
RFA - 10
RDA - 10
PWR - 7
SPD - 3
DAM - 6
TGH - 6
COA - 10
CDA - 10
OUT - 2

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

Parker my man, I feel for you. I'm playing on Champion and having the time of my life. I have three going on and the most bouts I lost was nine in my heavyweight legacy, and that was early in my career when I was learning how to play. Now in my Welterweight and Lightweight all my loses have been from decisions,sprinkle in a KO here and there.

I hope you find a set of sliders that fit you Brah.

It's cool. I'm gonna start a Pro Legacy and get some of the achievements/accomplishments that I might not get otherwise, like winning 20 in a row, etc. Plus, I'm really itching to get something going in the Dynasty forum.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

i used the sliders up front for my last legacy before my 360 RROD'd. In my last complete legacy I used a variation of parkers, but on champion. I finished undefeated as GOAT with all wins by KO. It was hard, but I was very careful, pushing the fight to my advantage with a 6'2" 220lb inside fighter. Hey Jetsfan, when I get my 360 back I am going to add you to my list. Cool?

go ahead and add me.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

This is what I am testing right now (finally got 360 back):
GOAT
Ref sliders 10
Power 3
Speed 2
Damage 10 (When you lower power you need to raise damage, and vice versa)
Toughness 0
CPU AI both 10
Output 0

I am 14(14)-0 and ranked 12 as a middleweight. I was scheduled to fight Pavlik, but he dropped the fight and a lesser fighter ranked 10th stepped in. I will post results after the fight.

I have 90 power in either hand and everything else is 80+. I am an 88 OVR right now. Pavlik was 100 in nearly everything, as was Hagler, who is ranked #1.

Re: Official Slider Discussion Thread

My next fight I am trying four and one as far as power/toughness. The guys kept getting up when he finally did go down. I still prefer the higher settings, but on GOAT it was a little much at times. Sergio Mora and his lower power stunned me when he shouldn't have. I have 100 chin and 90+ toughness right now. I may go 8/10 on power/toughness with a lower damage slider.
