Don't get me wrong. This is a good game minus a couple of glitches here and there, this game is enjoyable.

However I've come across an issue; an issue that's really been in every 2K I've played.

The refs do not blow their whistles. And it would be fine if they at LEAST called a shooting fouls twice every quarter for both the ai and human. However, you'll be lucky if you even get one.

In the NBA last season, the lowest FT attempts by team was 20 and that was the Knicks. Kevin Durant averaged 10 free throws by him self. Demar Derozan averaged 8.

So I decided to do a test. I tried it out 3 different times with 6 different teams.

I played on Superstar, Simulation. However, I changed some sliders. I put all the fouls up on both user and cpu, changed the CPU "Attack the basket" tendency all the way to 100. Put " Shoot midrange" and "Shoot 3 Point" tendency to Zero. Also put "contest shots frequency"for both cpu and user all the way to 100.

I only, however, started to actually record notes of the issue in the 2nd quarter a game where the Hawks were playing the Raptors. I was the Raptors. I decided to start tallying how many times both teams went to the basket and fouls were called at about the 5th minute of the second quarter. I kept note ONLY ON CONTACT ANIMATIONS SHOTS

Both teams ended up going to the line for a combined amount of 10 times. They however drew a contact animation 83 times.

That is a serious problem. Don't know if that can be patched but to go to bucket that many times and only get the whistle blew 10 times?

That's a serious problem. For those of you guys who are able to draw fouls and cpu is also drawing fouls, please share your secret.

Team Comparison

BBallcoach · 10-16-2014, 08:04 PM

Teams average 23 free throws per game IRL, Last year the high was 31/game and the low was 20/game, but it seems like from your data, if they called on average 33% more fouls the numbers would be pretty close to real life numbers. And as your data suggests the number of contact plays are there for the fouls to be called. Great work sir.

I don't see why this isn't an easy fix. By default, the shooting foul frequency is at 50. Users should be afraid to put it at 100.

And teams don't get into the bonus enough in this game to make up for it. It's been a game killer so far for me.

It kills me when I'm driving with DRose, or Melo, or Westbrook in this game knowing that most of the takes that they're taking would be fouls in real life.

i rarely get foul calls on clear fouls attacking the rim. on the other hand the computer gets ton of calls around the basket. its like playing street ball witha a guy that always calls foul when he misses the shot.

Turn all the fouls to 100 and yall get some different results
