BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

[drewbaby1414]

I know that there is another thread going on this but it isn't getting any love......So, I've got a slider set that gets me realistic 12 min stats with everything but Blocks....I mean, I've got contest shots, defensive awarness, blocks, vertical all at a 100.

I'm not talking user blocks as those are hard as hell. I mean who is getting chase down blocks?....I'm talking AI Blocks.....Who is getting them and how are you doing it?

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

I use have been adjusting sliders left and right to get good blocks.

I get blocks and my team mates get them also. I reduced blocks down to 95 and increased Layup Defense Strength TAKEOFF - 65. I've seen some at 100 but the bumping was a lot.

But I may get a max 2 a game.

Ellis was killing me also then I seen in another thread about his shot was 99 and I put it down to 85. I use different rosters than 2K's, (iRep, PJT, RondoIG) roster are key also. The only was I can contain Ellis is with T-Allen or another lock down defender.

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

Haven't had a chance to play with the new patch but from what I've read nobody is getting any blocks.....I mean whats the point of having Howard/Ibaka when they aren't getting blocks....Ahhhh, the blocks piss me off.

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

The most blocks I've got with one player is 9 Wilt Chamberlain he blocks everything

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

tell us your sliders that got you 9 blocks

so defense layup, jumpshot strength affect blocks?

Maybe? I've heard that it doesn't, even though it looks like it does in-game.

Raise blocks slightly, raise on ball slightly as well as help D strength, those will help get more blocks.

Most I've had in one game was 8, most I've seen 10. Team totals. Most with 1 player 6. Ibaka.

Its all about timing this year, jump later than sooner is the best advice I can give.

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

I just discovered (if its already known I apologize, but I have never tried it. haha ) that the Jump Shot and Layup Defense Strength sliders are the most vital to getting blocks this year. I am testing these sliders maxed out at 100 a piece and blocking at 25. It is half way through the 3rd now (DAL vs GSW) and there have been 7 blocks in the game thus far. Now this might be a bit high, but so far the blocks I've seen have been fluid and with purpose. It also helps with help defense as player who are helping don't just let players shoot in their face, they'll defend the shot and sometimes get a good help defense block.

I'm getting a great feel to the game on defense with these so far.

Of course shooting percentages are a bit low, but that is because at the moment, the shooting sliders are a bit lower than most slider sets.

Yes, I have been touting this on the forums for a few weeks now and its finally catching on.

I would also say that keeping release higher than gather produces better results, having gather too high will result in alot of those layup animations being stopped dead in their tracks.

I'll have to look into that. I think I like the release being on 100, seems to produce great looking defensive animations. I'll definitely look into the gather slider a little more in depth. Thanks

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

so how it should looks like?

Layup Defense Strength TAKEOFF
Layup Defense Strength RELEASE
Jump Shot Defense Strength GATHER
Jump Shot Defense Strength RELEASE

for user and cpu?

(cpu always has more block so i think it should't be the same value)

thanks for help

The way I have it set is as follows:

All Star difficulty


Layup Defense Strength TAKEOFF 100 - may lower to 90 or so
Layup Defense Strength RELEASE 100
Jump Shot Defense Strength GATHER 33
Jump Shot Defense Strength RELEASE 100
Blocking 75/65 - may raise to 80/70


you should see very realistic defensive rotational blocks and good on ball blocks with those settings alone, adjust the sliders for Defensive Awareness, etc to get more.

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

Release and gather along with defensive awareness are the most important, if you turn up blocking I high all players end up with the same ability to block
Shots. It is important find the balance without setting the blocks slider to high

Re: BLOCKED SHOTS...Who is getting them?

I've found that putting the vertical slider at 0 makes all of the above sliders have a much bigger impact. The blocks look much better ( guys aren't jumping way higher than they should) , and the right guys are getting them. Recommend giving it a try see if you get similar results.
