Association Q and A

[haloofduty]

Draft class hot spots are fixed. No more all cold zones.

Just noticed that D league is gone. Unless I'm blind. I checked for it and cant find it. Also still cant edit age.

Re: Association Q and A

First couple of Q's:

--- Are 4 team trades part of the game now?
--- Can you just give us a quick outlook on how stats look afte a season or two?

Thanks ahead for this thread!

Re: Association Q and A

1. For those of us playing the games too, can you just check if the stats bug is gone? Just enter a game via "Play Game", let the jump ball happen, and once you can "sim to end of game", do so. Then go to NBA.COM > Team Stats, and see if you get stuff like 60.0 APG, 70.0 RPG, 0.0 TPG etc. for the two teams that were playing in that game.

2. Does saving in the middle of the game cause all box scores and thus split stats to disappear? Sim a month, play a game, "Save and Quit" in the middle of it, load it back up, sim to the end, see if box scores are still there.

Re: Association Q and A

Do the draft classes still have Cold Spots?

Can you edit Shot of Dribble and Shot Low Post now?

Are the dunk package and big men 3 pt tendency glitches still in the game?

Re: Association Q and A

Check out if players gain or lose SSs as time goes on, lots of folk wanna know this.

On a personal note: have they fixed split stats? sim a bit, save, start a new assoc., save, go back to 1st assoc, sim a bit, then have a look.

have fun buddy!

Re: Association Q and A

if you've seen this then could you confirm any of these improvements to be correct? thanks

Re: Association Q and A

How is player progression?

Minutes/Rotations glitch fixed?

Player roles issue gone?

If you control all 30 teams does it force you to advanced in Free agency period a day if you switch teams?

How does the MVP award seem to be selected?

Any horrible trades? (ex Kevin Love for Bargnani)

[ronyell]

Re: Association Q and A

are you able to set cpu controlled teams' rotations & roles without it resetting each week?

how are the rotations "revamped" or are they still dictated by overall rating?

do all players average minutes in all games?

are all starters averaging 33 -35 mpg?

does Ginobili & Harden automatically start when going into association mode?

what are the attributes/tendencies that seem to progress/degress?

do players acquire/lose signature skills as the association continues?

do the players sit in the FA pool?

are there too many stars getting traded mid-season?

do all of the trades & signings still happen in November?

what bugs do you see?

what do you notice different abou GM logic?

are there real coaches in coaching pool?

can you promote assistant coaches?

do the last 5 sliders in the coaching profile have ANY impact on GM logic OR game strategy? (referring to offense/defense - forwad/guard - inside/outside etc. etc.)

greatly appreciate you taking the time to answer this stuff even though its only a few days before the game releases.

I have to check on 4 team trades but I simmed a few seasons and I don't think so.

Stats are better than last year but still need work. Sim stats are a little better but roster makers still have their work cut out. Paul still averaging 7 something assist. Blocks still low. Love does get to 11/12 rebounds at times. A lot of the same problems though. If you want specifics about stats feel free to ask.

The top team in assist averaged 25.3 and top rebound averaged 49.4 for the season. Seems fixed.

Box scores are still there.

[oo oo the rooster]

Re: Association Q and A

can a player average more than 3.0 blocks a game?
