Shot coverage impact

[tbone05241997]

Can someone please tell me exactly how these effect gameplay? If I raise or lower user slider does it effect my team or CPU? thank you

Unless it’s broken, the slider should do exactly as it says: control how much defensive coverage affects shot success. To test, set the user to 100 and CPU to 0 (or vice versa) and then take note of how you and the CPU are fairing on contested shots.

I’ll be testing this myself once I get to the defense strength and shot success sliders.

I've tested this a good amount already. It works pretty well as intended. The drawback is that it really messes with deep three pointers (and step back threes too potentially but that needs to be tested more).

I had it a 0 for a while, but couldn't hit hardly any deep, deep threes with Steph. Even with the 3 point slider at 100, strange. Then I put it at 100, and I was hitting a high percentage of deep threes. It's as if the game is determining that as a bad shot (looking at you PG13) and makes it nearly impossible to make with the slider at 0.

So the higher the setting the easier it is to make contested shots? I haven't touched this slider yet but definitely read it as the other way around.

No you're correct, if the slider is at 0, it's the easiest to make contested shots.

However, the residual effect is that deep threes become much more difficult to hit. Try it out in practice

So what do you think is a good setting for this?

100 makes every open shot automatic, even with the 3pt slider as low as 10. So I'm having a lot of success with the coverage slider at 50. I'm simply adjusting the defensive release/gather strength sliders to get the result of contested vs open shot % where I like them.

And what do you have the release/gather at?

This new slider sounds very flawed lol

Re: Shot coverage impact

I find the higher the value it’s at, the more the shots go in generally. Personally I have it at 70 for user and 30 for CPU and it’s giving me a fairly realistic shooting % for both teams.

Re: Shot coverage impact

Do these make any difference when it comes to fouls? If you go from 0 to 100 do you notice any difference in fouls?

JS Gather-25
JS Release-15

for both CPU and User and I'm currently adjusting the shooting sliders (38 3pt user/44 3pt CPU at the moment). But I also have shot timing impact at 100 for both, I'm different from most of the sim crowd as I want my input to really matter. If I'm hot, I want my team to be hot

Way different than what I am playing on lol. I have 3pt at 53 for both me and cpu and I have gather and release both at 50

Re: Shot coverage impact

So I’m finding open shots to go in too much IMO. To lower shooting pcts I would lower this slider?

I would go the route I posted above. Working pretty well for me so far.

I've made another adjustment. 3pt down to 36 for the user and I upped gather to 35 and release to 20 for both the user and cpu
