Will 2k address the lack of fouls in this game? -

[LakersDestini]

Played a game, only 4 fouls got called for the CPU. CPU went to the line 4 times..

this is just gamebreaking for me, anything i can do to fix this?

[dregos]

Nope. In the last few iterations of this game, I notice something like this within a few days of playing the game and it completely prevents me from buying the game or having any desire to play it whatsoever. I check OS less and less often because I have lost the faith in the devs to even attempt to fix stuff like this. The people have spoken and are extremely vocal about the concern that devs will just ruin the experience for them by patching a scuffed game mechanic such as the blatant lack of fouls. At the end of the day, you lie to yourself by saying "Hmm...Maybe next year it will have fouls, timeouts, AND a logical bench / rotation system.."

There are sliders for fouls. Try those out before asking 2K to "fix it".

There is a legit issue with fouls, though. Charge and blocking fouls in particular. But fouls as a whole need to be addressed. I've tried sliders maxed out and zeroed out (in case the sliders were reversed) and I've yet to see either of those called. At this point I think it's on 2K to patch it.

Dont be like that. I've been a 2k simulation fan since 04. I know when they're glaring issues with the game. I remember back in 2k12 when we had the lack of double teams.

You think I didnt try sliders before posting this?

You think I didn't play countless number of games with sliders?

You think its realistic for the Lakers w Lebron to shoot 6 free throws a game? Or how Bout the Bucks, shooting 7.

I just dont like when people assume I didnt try all the so called "solutions"

I've played with sliders maxed to 100

Theres a lack of blocking fouls, charging fouls, shooting fouls, etc

Yeah, the fouls sliders are a joke. The problem is the game does a terrible job on calling fouls even when there is obvious contact. Hell, what about that animation where you take a shot down low and wind up on your butt because the CPU bumps you?

It seems like the only way to get fouled is to drive the hoop. I've never been fouled during even a heavily contested jump shot....mid range or 3. And driving into the teeth of the defense hoping to get fouled is really just something that winds up being blocked.

Just because there is sliders it doesn't mean 2k is a 'Build your own basketball' game. Fouls are a part of everyday basket ball and if they are portraying themselves as a sim basketball game its on them to portray it accurately when it is innacurrate.

If it can be fixed with sliders why isnt the corrected sliders already in the default slider set? If I had to fix speed, fouls, rebounds with sliders after buying the game etc I might as well just join the company part time and work on the game in an official setting my damn self.



However, Will it be fixed by 2k? Probably not. Because its mainly an offline issue and its not a VC exploit

While most people will just complain about random issues from year to year without attempting a fix, this is not one of those times, fouls seem to be a legacy issue at this point. Blocking fouls seem almost non-existent every year which always makes me scratch my head since it's one of the most called fouls on every level of organized ball. I can always cheese my way to the line if needed but I'd prefer not to do that. Just think it needs to be a focus of the dev's at some point similar to how they eradicated the hip riding issue from last year because so many people complained. Just my 2 cents
