NBA 2K18 "The Eccentric Edition" - Realistic Slider Set

[EccentricMeat]

2K18... It's been real. It's been fun... But it hasn't been real fun. Sorry, but I see this newer, younger model on the horizon (2K19), and I'm just not that into you anymore, baby... I'll tell you what, let's give it one last go around, for old time's sake. Yea? Alright, but stop crying, that totally takes me out of it...

But in all seriousness, this BETA update will be the last thing I do with 2K18. 2K19 is just around the corner, and after seeing the new hotness, I just can't go back to the old-and-busted. Can you blame me?

I present to you:

Base Slider Set v6.0 *BETA* - Latest Update: August 11th

Spoiler

Gameplay Settings
Difficulty - Hall of Fame (Make sure to update ALL sliders after changing difficulty)
Quarter Length - 12 Minutes
Fatigue - On
Injuries - On
Game Speed - 48
Free Throw Difficulty - 50
Shooting Type - User Timing
FT Shooting Type - Real Player %
Shot Meter - Off
Shot Feedback - User Preference

Coach Settings
PlayVision - All Plays
PlayVision Display - Full
Offense Playcalling - Auto

These settings make your offense wake the hell up! Your AI teammates will no longer stand around doing nothing. Instead, they will be running plays and creating opportunities for your half-court offense.

Controller Settings
Shot Reaction With Intense D - On (User Preference)
Defensive Assist With Intense D - 0

Camera Settings
Drive
Zoom - 1
Height - 5
Key Zoom - Off

This camera view makes the game come ALIVE! It will take a few minutes to get used to, but I think that once you do you won't be able to play the game any other way!

Feel free to use the Broadcast camera view if you'd prefer. The game still looks and plays great from that view (I actually used it in my testing to make sure the player/animation speed was realistic), I just prefer the Drive camera.

What I'm Working On for the Next Update

- Fine tuning of shot success sliders
- Incorporating player feedback to improve the overall experience



PLEASE post any and all CONSTRUCTIVE feedback, positive or negative, so that I know what people like about my slider set and what I need to improve on! Also, please post any and all personal findings and/or tweaks you've tried out! Try to point out what you are seeing too much of (ex. The AI attacks the basket too often), what you're not seeing enough of (ex. The AI does not go to the post often enough), etc. And also, it's just fun to see the results everyone is getting and to have a discussion on what can be improved/what should be left alone.

Here's a simple resource I made to help depict what exactly "realistic stats" should look like:
NBA Stats to Replicate with Sliders

Now that I've posted the base for my slider set, give it a try and rate my thread accordingly! And as always, PLEASE feel free to LIKE this post if this thread has helped you out in anyway (or if you just think I'm a cool guy). It is greatly appreciated.

Enjoy!

So far, I can tell that the CPU is in love with the midrange shot.

Done a couple of game cpu vs cpu boston vs cavs so far.

Kyrie / Rose / IT are settling for midrange shots 85% of the time (after a drive)

Lebron wasnt too aggresiv, made a couple of driving dunk but no lay up.

[penny80]

NON shooting fouls as every year are very rare

[EccentricMeat]

Getting a base set settled on as we speak. Hoping to get it posted before I head to work in a couple hours.

Good. I get off at 3 so I'll definitely be doing some testing.

BASE SLIDER SET POSTED!

Please remember that this is only the BASE for my sliders and that things will get much better from here. However, I believe these settings fix a few problems out of the box and improve the look and feel of gameplay.

Enjoy!
