The Purist(s) NBA 2K11 Sliders (Post-Patch)

For the most part these rosters are more tuned for realism and there isn't as many great dunkers, lights out shooters, and speed demons. Making the playing field as well as player skill significantly less affective then the standard 2k Insider set where every team has 3 to 4 go to players... Rather they are IRL or not So my question is wouldn't that make the game more difficult and not play out as your sliders were intended for if we were using such rosters??

I think it's irrelevant. If you browse back through the stats, you'll find the coach profiles are working quite well, that the sliders are causing the stats to pretty much exactly match NBA AVG's (except where they are not meant to-- steals, for instance). The project never excluded a single stat post unless it didn't use the sliders as posted-- it included all rosters, teams, skill levels, etc. Therefore, I think we can safely say, it doesn't matter.

As far as rosters making players perform like their real-life counterparts, I'll leave that up to the people who use the rosters to debate.

I avg 5 turnovers just from in-bounding when the guy is standing 3 feet from him. Everytime I am up I can feel the cpu cheating! That is when I get most if not all my turnover and most of them are simple passes. Plus below avg shooters always make wide open 15-17 footers. The thing I notice is all the teams play almost the same.

You've played 7 games since yesterday?

Let me ask you, how is it possible that all teams play the same? What do you propose? Dynamic sliders tuned for every single game? There is no slider set that is meant to be changed for each and every game-- whether you use the 2k sliders, Punts, MK, Armor&Sword, etc. the settings are static and never change.


Via Wiki:

Standard deviation is a widely used measurement of variability or diversity used in statistics and probability theory. It shows how much variation or "dispersion" there is from the "average" (mean, or expected/budgeted value). A low standard deviation indicates that the data points tend to be very close to the mean, whereas high standard deviation indicates that the data are spread out over a large range of values

@ greenieblue

I played four that was a typo.

I don't know what type of changes are needed but I know the stamina is too low. I am tweaking them as I play.

The cpu gets to many rebounds and easy passes become passes out of bounds. All the teams shoot 15-20 more shots than the user even if the team run plays.

Out of the 5 games I played four players got hurt; falling after a contested shot (strained back out 2-4 weeks) and jumping for a rebound (twisted ankle).

Scorers dominate in the 1st half chill for the 3rd and get hot the last 5mins of the game.

The teams shoot 50-55%!

A big problem I notice is when the teams are running they throw full and half court passes to score easily (can't stop it and that is a 2K issue).

Next game, MIN @ ORL. The Timberwolves took a bad beating this time and I shoot 60% from the field. They committed a lot of fouls, even silly reach-ins when a screen beat them. I see two or three full court passes by the CPU too, but this cannot be corrected. When dowb by 20 the CPU panicked and I pressed the PG a lot with my bench palyers and the turnovers started to pile up.

I won but this was a strange game, too many fouls every time I got inside. The Timberwolves settled too much for the mid and three pointers. Only Love played a good game and he was almost unstoppable.

Considering they were beaten so hard they still shoot too well from the field, again 49%. And rebounds were low again. I think the shooting success will have to go down, it would be nice to see what other are experiencing.

Are these up on 2k Share? Just wondering

[mcampbell]

Clippers (Me) VS Thunder
Overall 76 vs 85
Standings (2-2) vs (2-1)
Fantasy Association
Player Lock (Starting PG)

First half was a back and forth affair. Game went into halftime tied at 44. Clippers stepped up on defense in the third and forced a lot of turnovers. Clippers up by eight going into the fourth. Thunder clawed back into it but a Clippers three pointer sealed it with two minutes to go, forcing the intentional fouls.

you misread what i said lol...i wanted them to be better...but the fatigue is good right now, it's probably because i am playing quick games and not assoc to see the dynamic fatigue system from game to game why i felt players weren't getting tired quick enough...
