mkharsh33 - NBA 2K11 - ALL STAR Sliders (12 min...real player %)

With me it´s the same... im usually winning/losing by two or three, very balanced game in the first two quarters... then, all hell breakes loose!!!

Would these sliders work with custom rosters? The CPU has been too generic for me, using the 2K ones. I'm not seeing much of a difference between each team's offense and defense.

I think these sliders work with any rosters... I don't use one set when creating them, but tested them on all kinds.

I played a crazy game last night before bed... 91-92 season rosters... I pick two random teams... I was the Bulls (me) at the Trail Blazers (cpu). They jumped out to a 12 point lead and I thought "great...here we go again..." But I pulled back and only trailed by 3 after 1. Then I got it going (well, actually Jordan did) and I outscored them 35 to 19 in the 2nd and I was leading by 23 after 3 quarters. Then the excitement began and Portland got to within 6 pts before I closed it out. I won 108-98. Jordan finished with 36 and Pippen had 24 and filled the stat sheet in other areas. I kept running Pippen off those baseline picks and had a lot of options to either score or pass...

The variety is amazing to me, and I haven't tweaked a thing. Shooting percentages are spot-on and the stats across the board are near perfect.

Is anyone having trouble with 3-pointers?

I'm not taking dumb ones, either, the only ones I take are pretty wide open ones... but I've gotten a couple of games where I only shoot 20ish percent. =/

Nope, but then again I'm running a lot of games with the Nuggets right now and they have 4-5 guys that can shoot from 3. So, the first thing would be to look at the team you are using. If it's a team like OKC, you aren't going to hit a lot of 3's as outside of Harden (Durant can hit some and Cook is OK off the bench), they don't shoot a lot of 3's.

Dan... Could you post what tweaks you've made to the slider set? I'd appreciate it... I want to make a comparison to yours and give them a shot (especially your CPU shooting updates, which is what I believe you've changed). Thanks!!

Inside Shot Success: 46
Close Shot Success: 47
Mid-Range Success: 48

Those are for the CPU. That's all I've changed from your set. It's only a 1-point increase in each category, but it's really helped dial in those CPU shooting percentages.

Thanks, Dan! I plugged those in and ran a test game with a couple teams I've completed from my newest 93-94 rosters. I was Utah at home vs. the Lakers (cpu). I lost by 12... But, the cpu shot 47% against me, so I REALLY like these changes.

My problem is that I shot a terrible percentage. What I'm learning is that you have to run plays or this game will punish you. I did a lot of freelance crap (I was in a bit of a hurry because I had to head out with some work-related stuff) and got punished for it.

Thanks for sharing those!
