Help me to tone down Dunks

[Keaton]

Hello Guys, my first post this year. Great game, 2k did so many things right, I thought I woudnt have to ask u guys for help at all. Congrats 2k.

Only one thing sort prevent me from starting a season this year (playing allsar/sim with few tweaks):

I see so many dunks it ruins the game for me. I can dunk when I want, the CPU dunks every time he has the oppertunity. Its litteraly 15 dunks per Team per Game, I already saw 2 360 dunks (by the cpu), people like chalmers, Rondo, Nene act like Lebron, gosh Hedo gave me 2 reverse Dunks in one game and a few more totally unrealistic headscratchers I cant remember right now. Problem is I cant tone this down. When I tone down the Dunk sliders (dunk in traffic suc. - 34, dunking ability - 25, attemps dunks: 5) the only real difference I can see is that big man now cant dunk when alone under the basket. Carmelo still throws 160s on me, but Perkins cant even dunk in practice, even Shaq or Joel Anthony wont Dunk alone under the hoop. But Pierce and RayRay still jam it, yersterday even Duncan throw 5 or so on me. No fun guys, please help, I cant stand this...

I don't understand why people think the games dunks too much on default settings.

Re: Help me to tone down Dunks

If you want to lower the amount of dunks in the game then lower the dunking ability to about 36-38 and vertical to 38 and that solves the issue

I get dunks at realistic rates and do not see huge leaps by the bigs anymore.

I do very minimal slider adjustments from SIM setting to the All Star level

Is 2K11 on sim by default? If not, that might be something to look into, Keaton.

I haven't checked what my game is on (whatever it's on when it comes out of the box) but I've had some dunking issues as well. The biggest problem seems to be little guys springing like they're high flyers all the time. Gary Payton, Hersey Hawkins and my low-dunk-rated My Player are three examples. In '96 Payton's case, I know he could dunk, and that should be fairly represented, but in user vs. user games he is able to set two feet or do a spin pivot then hammer home with authority.

But then again, if the game is not on sim by default, maybe that's my issue.

Re: Help me to tone down Dunks

There are three issues....


First is the help defense is at 50 for everyone which is too low, so after you beat your man there is a clear path to the basket for the dunk. Raise Help D strength to 100 and go and raise the help defense for good teams for ex: I have the Celtics at 88 since they have a pack the paint policy.

Second is the dunk slider which is too high, lower that to about 30 and you should be fine.

Third is the certin dunks that can not be inturrupted, just blocked which can negate positioning.

Thank you.

I'm seeing maybe 6 or 7 dunks a game. Very much on pace with real life.

Re: Help me to tone down Dunks

Its set on default out of the box, which i guess means arcade, and there in arcade is alot of Dunks, pip, 3's ect.

If you switch to SIM you will notice alot of things like dunking and players make ridiculous shots over and over go away. This is what i felt like testing the 2 different modes out.

That worked fine, thanks!

Re: Help me to tone down Dunks

The amount of dunks and the type of dunk anyone can do is crazy in this game. Matter of fact, it's one of the few flaws in this game because I really do like this game, but those crazy standing and spin dunks I can pull with AI sticks out like a sore thumb.

Re: Help me to tone down Dunks

well, as I said the vertical thing (combined dunk sliders) works fine.
