CPU Substitution

[BBF24]

Anyway to change the substitution patterns cpu use? It's the same for every team. Bench players come in at the 4 min mark 1st quarter. Starters come in beginning of 2nd quarter then leave with 4 minutes left. 2nd half is fine I guess starters play the whole 4th. I just find it annoying that starters aren't closing the quarters like they should or at least the stars for each team.

Does every team this?

I think its hard coded especially on 12 min. The bench utilization and performance factor does nothing in my opinion. Havent tested but ive played against teams with a high performance factor and the pattern was still the same. Seems like it only works for simulation stats.

The only way to fix this as of now is to manually do some subs for the cpu. For example, youre playing against the rockets. When you notice the cpu is about to sub or a timeout is given, switch over and control the rockets and do a realistic sub, (like keeping Harden in the game for the 1st quarter)Then switch back to your team.

This throws off the cpu hard coded sub patterns to some degree. Also you will have to the same at the end of the third so that the cpu wont put their whole starting 5 back in to start the 4th no matter how tired they are.

CPU Substitution

This is a pretty big issue and I hope it can be patched. The first half is especially screwed up with cpu subs. All in all, my starters are constantly on the court against their subs and vice versa. Second half is slightly better but still not great. Really hope they can tweak this. 12 min quarter btw

Re: CPU Substitution

No not last year's game, this year is the worst one in terms of how CPU sub their players, like the CPU coaches have their 5 players sub for 5, is like a high school game, and I play 6 mins per quarter, now I play 8, still happening wtf
