Hi!, Walrus ... how many bigs have an overall rating you think it stands right when compared to smaller guys ? ... How many are in the 90´s & how many in the 80´s ? ... do you see a trend ? ...
You should, as it is an intended one by 2k ... as they have stated before, they have taked into account the height of the players meaning that a 7.0 ft C with a 90 in close has an enourmous advantage over a 6.2 ft PG with the same rating ... therefor the formula that calculates the overall rating has a poderation integrated within itself ... the overall rating is not the correct form to value a player, it never has been really ... the overall value is not the player efficiency value or the per or even the real market value ...
With those ratings (Nogster), all the players for the most part, play like their real life counterparts and post simmed stats like they are supposed to ... and to be honest, that is the whole point of the ratings and that is fine with those who like the game to be as close to reallity as possible ...
In the file I will release - will try hard to do it sometime today, but not a certainty as I have to work today too - there would be minor tweaks to update players performances and to be in tone/tuned with reallity ... but overalls are not the main focus of those edits ... In an intend to create a better trade value (not overall) I will adjust the potential rating so Josh Smith & Aldridge or S. Oneal & Brook Lopez whose ratings are similar dont get the same value for AI trading purposes ...
P.D.
The initial Q´s were to draw your attention ...
