CPU Long Range Shooting Slider question....

[Okstatepokes]

Does it affect how frequent they will shoot the three or the success rate of a 3 point shot? Thanks!

I believe success rate.

Yes, success rate of field goal percentage is impacted by that slider

Re: CPU Long Range Shooting Slider question....

I assume this to mean from how far they can successfully shoot the ball with good frequency. I say this because I think I also saw a player ratings for shooting range. The highest you can modify it to is 24. 3pt shooters have from 21 and over with the guys who can really drain it form a different area code at 24. I suspect this is interrelated to the cpu long range shooting as they both seem similar in name.

I cant seem to get the CPU to shoot anything outside the paint. can this be adjusted??

CPU rarely shoots threes for my games too? Only thing I don't like about the gameplay.

Re: CPU Long Range Shooting Slider question....

Yup, the CPU's only taken an average of about 4 on me per game. They've missed every single one of them too, I really am hoping there's some way to fix this.

Re: CPU Long Range Shooting Slider question....

I generally have this problem as well. The cpu doesn't take enough threes. I did play at Duke and they kept dropping threes on me though. They made 23 three point attempts for the game. I had started an earlier game against them and it seemed like they shot even more threes. I didn't keep for that game. Basically, the team needs to be primarily three point shooting team for you to see the cpu jack them up. In real life college just about every team tries to shoot the three with more frequency than this game shows.

Increase the CPU hands on perimeter slider.

I have seen the players take more shots outside the paint after I upped it.

That has nothing to do with this situation

That slider only controls how good or bad your perimeter players are at catching or holding onto the ball doing a steal attempt by the CPU

You can actually use that slider to create unforced turnovers on the perimeter

The best way to go about getting them to shoot more 3's is either by dynamic updates factoring in real world stats or possibly editing the shooting ranges of players on each team.....

I'd look at each teams rosters and see how many 3-pt shots were attempted last year by each player and then rate them accordingly. It's kinda like tricking them to shoot more 3's because of their ratings. If that approach doesn't work then it's hopeless unless of course it's tied into Dynamic updates

I don't think so.

Well, I did see an increase in shooting from outside the paint. I'm just saying what I have seen.

Yeah it has nothing to do with how many 3's the cpu will shoot, you must of just played a team that will shoot them.
I have found out if you play a 2-3 zone the cpu will shoot alot more 3's.
I played against Colorado last night. The first half I played man to man and they shot 3 total 3's. The second half I played a zone and they shot 13 3's. Keep in mind the game was close they were not shooting them because they where behind.
