    NBA 2K8 Sliders by Bizcanos (360)


    I am pretty happy with these sliders. I do not mess w/team sliders or playbooks as I just want to provide a solid foundation and you all can tweak from there. Look throughout this thread for some team slider tweaks and read the defense thread on the main page for pointers. With these sliders and all the tips available I think many of you will find what you are looking for.

      On default no, but after I messed around with it I have seen 2 and they were legit, Tyrus Thomas trying to dunk over two people and Shaq tried to dunk over Ming and well, I could understand that one.

            On default I would hardly have any. But with these you can make the dribbler lose the ball or actually get some swipe steals. Turnovers are hard to come by (unlike last year's turnover fest). I just wanted more steals and you get them with these and when they happen it feels real not cheap. More fastbreaks also.

              Hey Biz,

              Notice ur slider settings are very similar with mine. Within a 0-5 range of each setting. So I know were both on the right track. & I remember using ur sliders last year they were pretty good. Mad props. The other ones in this forum are way off...Are u playing in all-star mode?

                Nice Biz, i would not have started to play very seriously until your sliders came out so nice to see, although im sure you will be tweaking away at them.

                Now i just have to wait till Monday for the game to arrive

                  Yes but I have been humbled. I usually play about one or two games on Allstar to learn any new controls and move on. But this year I am getting my *** handed to me on Allstar. But know that I know the cpu will tear apart any weakness you have I pay more attention to all the cpu players not just the ballhandler. You have to watch for cuts and the plays they run and screens, mannn. But the cpu is just a little bit too smart (they pass w/robot like precision) on offense and defense and I just wanted to tone that down a bit while increasing turnovers and the number of fouls called.

                  I think many slider sets will be similar because this game plays great on default.

                    Yea, thats why I made OFF awareness a 15 for CPU.

                    So they wont always make the rite pass. Sumtimes I seen them go out of bounds on a full court press.

                    A back court violation.

                    Or accidently pass the ball to a guy out of bounce.

                    They still can burn u with that threading the needle passing, but not so often. Only If u get lazy on D, or leave sum1 open on D. Then they will see it.

                    Plus, I made the dribbling like a 25 for them. So when u see them get fancy with the dribble or run into traffic. Sumtimes they will cough up the ball.

                    Its pretty k3wl.

                    Im still tweaking my settings as always.

                      Yeah, thats what I have been tryign to do also..all I want is realistic FG %'s from both sides. It is doable In NBA Live, so Im sure it can be done here..just have to find the right combo.

                      The CPU is a bear..I have given up defending the CPU man by man manually. I now play as the 2 guard the entire time. This lets me deny my man the ball, play him straight up, watch for cutters and play help defense.


                      My goal is to get a set so that you can actually mix up your defenses in order to take advantage of the weakness on the other team.

                      For example, I want to be rewarded for my squad playing lock down D for 22 seconds and forcing Primo Brezec into a fall away 18 footer, or Ak 47 having to shoot an off the dribble contested 22 footer. That shot is going in way too often on default.

                      Nor do I want a 3rd string PG coming in with Magic Johnson court vision and ice water in his veins clutch shooting.

                      I was considering lowering the ALL user and CPU shooting all the way down to 45 and raising both sides D-awarness and contest shots as well..I'm trying to get FG %'s to be be between 42-48%, with your ocassional lights out game depending on who you are playing and how you are playing.

                              No I mean increase. On 12 minutes and default game speed, it just takes way too long for my taste.
