Hockey Line changes still evident. But I like the various offensive sets the CPU opposition was running, except that Houston was calling a lot of plays for Melo and not utilizing CP3/Harden enough. Some roster editing is needed.

This was addressed by Czar in one of the threads. ACE is not set up yet since the season has yet to start with Melo. Once the season is in full swing it will be updated accordingly.

Melo had a positional mismatch the system will naturally direct more offense to him especially if he heats up.

Wow never thought i would hear from Nino Samuel AKA Da_Czar nice to read up gameplay coming from this man with such a high Basketball IQ ...i look forward to his write since he hoped on board VC team


"This year we are thrilled to introduce our pick and roll smart switch AI module. The module allows the AI to immediately recognize and switch on the ball-screen and then evaluate if the ball-handler or screener have a mismatch." LOVE THIS

it goes a bit further

"Our smart switch pick and roll module changes the way casual users are able to engage our game. While it was built for the AI, we also allow it to trigger for users. The spacing for an isolation or a post-up happens automatically so there are no buttons to press, or actions you need to take."

i must say that the extracted above section i have seen myself playing the prelude and man o man ..i must say this made me so happy ....it works even when the user is one of the defenders either the iniatial on ball defender or the defender on the screener...

the AI is smarter to realise if u decided to stay at home on original assignment or if u switched ..the AI recognises this and make the adjustment really quickly, unlike last year many times the results were frustrating when both u and the AI during pick and roll were in a constant struggle to effectively defend pick n roll causing easy roll to the basket or leaving the shooter open

I have seen a few Gameplay videos, sometimes they sub out 2 sometimes they sub out 4. i think it all depends.

What if a player has a mismatch, but that mismatch still isn't as good an option as other players on the floor without a mismatch?

Like, Klay could have a point guard on him, but a Klay Thompson post up, even against a mismatch, isn't a good enough play for the offense to drop everything and go to it consistently (IMO).

But GSW does give klay the ball in situations like that

That step back 3 by Harden at 3:50...good lord.

They do, I agree. But, for example, what if I have Tony Allen guarding Curry, which puts my point guard exclusively on Klay? It'd be weird to see the Warriors trying to use Klay to attack the point guard consistently, possession after possession. Unless they would actually do that and I'm mistaken.

So post ship if that happens a lot we just adjust his planned touches down or reduce the amount of attention ACE pays to when the rockets have positional mismatches. I can change that so they never or rarely change the gameplan to attack those. But that is, in essence, making the system dumb. But it will give you the desired outcome.

Plus we have not even seen them play yet let alone play when Melo has a mismatch.

Those Harden, CP3 and Gordon flow tech opportunities were straight up human-like. That Harden step back to get the game to 10-11 was an absolute thing of beauty..

Yeah, some work was done on this. It shouldn't happen all the time. Should depend on the team. Still, have more to improve on this but it is definitely improved. didn't mention it in the blog because it's not 100% and it can happen.

That stepback at 3:51 tho (gameplay vid).

Please don't make the system dumb. Too many sports games already make their stuff dumb just to appease people who don't want to spend the time to learn how to play the correct way. Already saw this happen with Madden 19 with their first update.
