At the request of Playmaker I dropped down from SS to Pro. Something that I saw was simply awesome

Parsons was out on the wing past the 3pt line being guarded by Johnson/Lakers. Dirk comes and sets a pick and Parson goes around and starts for the key, Lakers D collapses into the lane as Parson drives and Dirk pops out just past the 3pt line and Parson kicks it back out to Dirk for a 3. A beautiful play I must admit. It flowed perfectly.

The above mentioned is some of the greatness that this game is capable of producing..

So are the stats more realistic Pro Level (FG%) but the games are just too easy which is why everyone seems to be playing on SS level?

Would be cool if you could set the difficulties like they did with NCAA Football 14

Also I recall in years past on SS Level the Human defenders wouldn't really react on their own....

You had to basically do all the work on defense (IMO it was game cheat coded into the game)

But on lower levels your defenders would react on their own....and you didn't have to manually do everything.

I wonder if it's still the same way where Human Players on Defense are coded to not react unless you take control

You read 5 good things and then you read 5 bad things.

Sad thing is most of the bad things I'm reading about would have been easy fixes in years past (editing) it's the good things we now have that we lacked at that time.

Go Figure..

It's a must that they put sliders/editing back into this game. That's the missing ingredient at this point. EA must put some of the control back into the consumers hands. Give us the option for Synergy or our own editing/slider tweaks

I'm confused Flight those stats look reasonable to me....

That is Pro level with Shooting Ratings only right?

Shows just 1 QTR and the only thing that looks unreal to me is that the Lakers were winning LOL!

I really don't like the way CPU Wizards is using Gortat in the pick n roll. John Wall will hand off the ball Gortat at the 3 point line. Gortat will then attempt to beat his man off the dribble doing ISO moves. Gortat is a damn center. Also don't like how John Wall has the ability to dunk in traffic over 3 defenders. Pretty much when John Wall wants to score, he scores.

This game even has Kris Humphries doing ISO moves at the top of the key trying to beat his man off the dribble and dunking on people damn near from the free throw line over people. It is like once these dunk and lay up animations start up from so far out from the rim, there is no interrupting it. They will literally bowl defenders over for the sake of that animation playing out.

There are still instances where your button presses don't register. Few times I tried to get a rebound with Lopez, who was already under the basket perfect position for the rebound, wouldn't jump or move. Just standing there flat footed letting John Wall get the rebound.

Yes I double checked my settings and this is what I'm playing

PRO
Ratings Only on shooting and FT's

I play a patient offense. I don't FB a lot unless its obvious. I don't spam the paint. I try to play like what I see on TV. "MY SIM STYLE"

Dirk is killing me from all over. Crazy real-life the game I've having right now

Pro just doesn't present enough of a challenge for me. I'm not even going hard against the Mavs and I'm up 76-59 at the end of 3. No way in hell that happens with this Laker team

I can say I didn't start to pull away until they started doubling Kobe and leaving Lin open who was draining everything in sight. 3pt % for the Mavs is at 21% on 3/14 shooting.

Yeah I figured the gameplay would be easy but I was more interested in the seeing the stats to see if the CPU shoots a lower percentage on the lower levels.

So they did shoot worse on Pro....try All-Star and see if the 3-PT percentage gets better than Pro but not out of control like SS Level.

Also did your AI defenders seem to react better on defense without you having to control switch off to every guy?

Edit: Just saw your final game stats....I think that level would be perfect if they had Sliders judging from those stats you could make the CPU play better and present a challenge on Pro.

Seems like if they could add animations they should be able to install a patch for gameplay sliders.

The CPU D I was able to beat them off the dribble at times and also was able to get them up in the air and actually off there feet with a pumpfake which I have not been able to do on SS.
