Orlando Magic and Chicago Bulls Plays updated and ACE clarification

[Goldin Brown]

Is there anyway we can get an updated list of the default freelance for each playbook? I was using the Suns book because it had the 4-1 motion as the default freelance but then one day it just changed and became 3 out-2 in. Would be wonderful if you could set your preference and lock it outside of gameplay.

In the video, Czar mentioned that they added some new plays to the Chicago Bulls. Just check the playbooks.

Well I would take this as a yes then possibly, I need to check his blog and do a comparison of the new plays on the blog and the ones on my custom roster.

1. is answered in the blog. We have generic ACE for each coach that are applied in the future when there are no Known lineups.

2. IDK.

At that point, I became more interested in the subject, because he's making changes to my team. If he's going to make changes to Pacers, then personally I would like to know the specifics if he's allowed to provide them. I would like to think the changes are more than switching the freelance to 4-1 IN. Also, he mentioned that he only does the offensive side. I would love to know what was done on the defensive side of the ball, if any. It's not that people don't know. I think people don't understand the changes. It's not black and white like rating and accessory changes. Plus, there's no where in the game where we can review the changes for ourselves. EDIT: Mods, can you merge my thread into this one? I do agree we should try to keep the conversation to one thread if possible.

ACE is one system but there are two parts as we mentioned extensively int the blog. I do the offense. Any defensive changes are in OG's realm.

ACE is really for the AI, as an experienced users you and mostly implementing your own gameplan anyway. ACE updates how the AI plays under different circumstances as a user most times your overriding that anyway..

again the blog has a ton of info on what it does and how.

S/O to da czar and the 2k team for identifying an area of need and addressing it in a timely manner.

very impressed with the quick turnaround with beefing up these two teams' playbooks with brand new offensive systems this year.

Great stuff

ACE has been THE best feature added to the game in years IMO.

Well done to all those involved
