    PLEASE Fix Player Tendancies in MC

    Before you flame me, I am not talking about PG dunking. I couldn’t care less about dunking as a PG. This is about overtuning player tendancies such as Westbrook and other glaring issues with predictable CPU habits.

    I play HOF only. I need the difficulty and I love how the game is more realistic with scoring now. Gone are the 50 point 20 assist games even with 12 minute quarters if you want to play right. However, there are still CPU actions that are frustratingly questionable and predictable. Players randomly switching on defense for no reason (and I play with defense call-outs option so it can’t be myself not following correctly), defense randomly dropping an amazing 3pt shooter (broken tendancies from the new “let a bad shooter take the shot”) and the worst problem — players like Westbrook chucking endlessly.

    Now, hold the Westbrook comments because I’ve heard them all. I’m not the biggest advocate of his constant shoot first mindset and stat stuffing extravaganza. But he does not play like he does in 2K. I’m on OKC as a combo PG (playmaker / shot creator) and I was hoping they would move Westbrook to SG. Instead, I start as a SG but they rotate us well enough. However, every single play Westbrook will run the ball up or even break up a play, back up his defender and take a post fadeaway jump shot. Every. Single. Time.

    I don’t even mind him running into 4 players and getting abused. But the constant oblivious actions no matter how cold he is ruins the experience.

    No, I don’t lose. In fact, I have been winning since I’m a starter. I know how to play so keep those comments to yourself because difficulty is not my issue. Take a look at our recent win:

    As you can see he just keeps shooting and plays terrible with terrible Fg%

      I'm with this guy. Tendencies are atrocious and seriously need some tweaking. I can't believe Mike Muscala is making 2-3pt'rs a game, let alone ATTEMPTING them. And don't even get me started on player tendencies to run straight to the rim and throw up fade away jumpers on the fastbreak for no ****ing reason. Ugh

          The fast break thing is another glaring issue. Players on the break will simply shoot or force no matter what especially if it’s a team that scored a lot of fast break points the years prior. This is clearly tendancies based on 2016/2017 season.

          Tendancies also prioritize over a running play. Running a beautiful play with people open will be broken up if a player with the ball has a tendancie to shoot. This is fine but not when he ignores how well he’s being defended.

          I don’t know if it’s a mix of MC tweaks to try and get your team shooting / acting more on their own on top of tendancies due to previous years of MC teammates doing nothing with the ball as it doesn’t seem to effect the CPU as much (even though it still does).

          It’s things like this that make me frustrated with 2K. They focused so much on new VC sinks and less time polishing the things that matter. No NBA socks on alternate jerseys, inability to edit/layer tattoos after they’re inked, buggy interfaces, cannot view haircuts before paying, unbalanced archeatypes and the list goes on. All the thing we should have had for years and begged for they now charge for.

          However, I think the sim part of the game took a step in the right directions and all of these issues could have been forgiven if they didn’t butcher tendancies so much.

          I paid $150 for this game due to the growing importance of VC and bonuses. It’s frustrating to see they’re continuously focused on gauging over gameplay.

            I am just upset Derozan won't shoot a 3 for nothing. I know he's a midrange guy but he'll shoot wide open 3s sometimes. He will only shoot it when the shot clock is going down.

              Not saying I agree with how he got there (post fadeaways), but looking at the stats alone, that’s not unrealistic. He averaged 10-24 last season from the field, so 9-25 isn’t a stretch.

                Nah as a raptor fan I can tell you this is realistic. The guy only shoots 3's as the clock runs down or if he's wide open in the corner. He rarely shoots those

                  Nah, it's not realistic. He never shoots it. He doesn't shoot open corners either. That's where I pass it to him the most when I'm doubled.

                  I know he doesn't shoot them much (he shot like 100 something last season) but he'll shoot a wide open corner one sometimes lol. On here it's no way he's shooting it unless the shot clock is going down.

                    I always have Julius Randle and Larry Nance camping out at the corner 3 in MyCareer even if they’re open and u give it 2 them they aren’t shooting, just seems weird they keep hanging around out there
