Dunk disaster

[goh]

Major problems here.

You can't do a 360 dunk because no one has a 360 dunk set.
You have to set it as a special dunk. No one has any special dunks set.

Josh Smith has Dwight Howard's dunk package.
Josh Smith can't use his own dunk package or any the reverse,windmill or 360 special dunks unless you change his main position to SF. J.R. Smith has the J.Smith package though JR is a good dunker it appears to be Josh's dunks.

Vince Carter has the Athletic Guard package instead of his own. Also his sig shot is listed as A. Carter but there's no V. Carter.

Nate Robinson has the Rimgrazer package instead of his own.

Kobe can't be given 360 dunks by default.

Melo has the Athletic Guard package and also can't use his own by default. You have to increase his dunk rating from 79 to 85 to be able to give him his dunk package.

Kevin Garnett can't use his own dunk package by default. You have to increase his dunk rating from 63 to 85

Tim Duncan can't use his dunk package by default. Increase his dunk rating from 45 to 85.

Nene doesn't even have ANY dunk package by default. 79 to 85 to enable his.

Shaq of course can't use his increase to 85 from 58.

Amare can't use his,increase rating from 84 to 85.

Yao too,you know what to do.

I can't even find James White to see if he's got his. The blacktop mode/dunk contest says he's on the 76ers but he's not there on the roster screen and using him in the dunk contest he's got a generic jersery and isn't on the FA list either.

Re: Dunk disaster

The hell? This is weird... especially the players not having a package assigned when they have their own dunk package (like Nene)... weird oversight. It's like this on the official rosters that were just released?

Re: Dunk disaster

Yeah, this is really annoying. Thing that sucks about editing the players to 85, is that it raises their dunking ability in traffic as well.

Re: Dunk disaster

It's more than just that. The layups packages are screwed up as well. Here is a post I made about it in the thread about the dunk and layup packages.

DC there are a couple of things that have haven't been mentioned yet when it comes to the dunk packages. There is another package nobody has mentioned. Jason Richardson has his own package. There are also limits to what dunks and dunk packages you can assign to a player based on thier position.

For example I edited Blake Griffin cause they have horrible rated his dunking, speed, quickness, and vertical all in the 50's. So I was going to use him as the example to see how the assigning sig dunks work. Well to my surprise I edited him to a 85 dunk but all of the packages or dunks wasn't available. You will like this though I couldn't assign him any windmills, reverse dunks, or 360's. Now I don't normally have a problem with but Blake Griffin is a guy who has windmilled more than a few times during games and on the break. He is a very very explosive player yet he is being limited in this game because of position. I wanted to give him the power windmill for fastbreak purposes and wasn't able to.

Also I don't believe that the J. Smith package is for Josh Smith. I believe it is for J.R. Smith. Reason being J.R. has that package assigned to him not Josh Smith. If you go look at Josh Smith he has Dwight Howard's package. I tried to edit and give him the J.Smith package but since he is listed as a PF they wouldn't allow me to give to him. Again this is where I have having a problem with these position limitations. Josh Smith is capable of doing any type of dunk there is in a game but since he is listed as a PF we are only allowed to give him big man packages.

OH lastly almost EVERY player in the game is assigned the rookie guard/big man layup packages. I mean guys like Rose who pull of some of the most amazing layups you will se is assigned rookie guard. Even guys like Manu and Parker, who have thier own packages, are assigned rookie guard on this default roster. If I'm not mistaken only Kobe, Paul, and maybe Crawford are actually assigned thier own package.

Re: Dunk disaster

You can't do a 360 dunk because no one has a 360 dunk set.
You have to set it as a special dunk. No one has any special dunks set.

Jason Richardson's package does have a 360 in it. In fact it has three different ones in it. The problem is the 360 dunk doesn't work in that game at no matter if it is in thier package or you set it has a specialty dunk.

Re: Dunk disaster

Any word on this being fixed in a patch?

[DC]

Re: Dunk disaster

Might be patched

Re: Dunk disaster

Might be patched

And you know what'll happen then, right? 360's in traffic, windmills...dunkfest material...

Re: Dunk disaster

just get rid of 360 dunks period. Who in the hell does 360 dunks in regular season games, except for when they are on WIDE open, all alone fastbreaks?

Re: Dunk disaster

Cant believe that this wasnt picked up on in testing. Hopefully they can include it in a patch.

With the little testing they do, I'm not surprised..

Well if they didn't catch the framerate problem, which is very close to a game killer for me right now, it's not surprising that they didn't catch this....

Re: Dunk disaster

Just to clarify one part of that,the special dunks are gone AFTER the roster update. I checked in my association that was started before getting the update and JRich had his set.

Yah I saw the 360 dunks in the packages after posting. Not that those packages were assigned anyway.

I've always felt they needed to differentiate between in traffic dunks and fast break dunks. A slider or even separate packages. I should NEVER be able to do a 360 in traffic EVER. Acrobatic layups, yes, even the occasional 360 spin and toss layup OCCASIONALLY, but other than that, 360's should be only for fast breaks and only to be done by the 3-4 guys who actually try them in the league.

Re: Dunk disaster

Hotobu brought this to my attention, and I looked into it a little bit. I believe some of the sig dunk packages and layups are built into the players. Not completely sure though. I only tried yao out. It seems that he does his sig no hops dunks.
