Hi there.
I have spend time playing with both Armor & Swords pro sliders and Poke's superstar sliders- which are both excellent in their own right- and I'm having trouble finding an ideal middle ground.
The pro sliders were a bit too easy, but the gameplay was super smooth and opponents seemed true to real life. On the flip side, on offense it felt like every shot was going in and I hovered around 60% shooting every game. (not bragging-- just explaining)
On the flip side, on Poke's superstar I find it very difficult to create space from the defender, and picks are pretty much the only way I can get to the hoop. This slider set created a ton of close nail-biters (and a buzzer beater from both Mike Bibby and Chris Webber), but opponents often didn't mirror their real life counterparts, as I'll explain below:
The most glaring issue though is opponent big man play. How can I get opposing power forwards and centers to play with their back to the basket?
I play in an all-time league, and when I play the Rockets, Kenny Smith and Shane Battier take twice as many shots as Hakeem Olajuwon (the Rockets coaching settings are set to "play through star" and "patient offense)
When I play the Lakers, Kareem and Shaq barely shoot at all, and Magic Johnson and Elgin Baylor shoot a ton of shots
When I play the Warriors, Chamberlain doesn't shoot nearly as much as the outside shooters (Barry/Curry/Mullin/Thompson). Yes, the Warriors shooting is ridiculous.
have any of you found an ideal slider set in which players play like their real-life counterparts? I'm eager to start a new league with Franchiseplay's ultimate legendary roster, but first I want to find the perfect roster.
Props to Poke and Armor & Sword-- I got a ton of enjoyment out of your sliders. I hope I didn't come across like an ungrateful complainer.
Thanks in advance,
Tim
