Unfortunately on anything other than PC you would need to enter them manually in the game. Once you have, you can share/upload them for others to use.

I'm not aware if anyone has uploaded them for PS4 yet. Try a search for RES2, but even if they have been loaded earlier, I have changed so much recently you would likely end up updating a lot of entries.

Cross-platform shared data is not a thing yet unfortunately.

That said, it is important to note that Current Gen definitely playing a little different than Next Gen based on the slider ideas in the Next Gen sets. I have seen it reported that Da Czar has confirmed the Next Gen AI is different that Current gen so slider concepts that work in one may not work in the other. So while I continue to monitor the Next Gen slider threads, Current Gen sliders will need to be different. My usual caveats - I do not use the shot stick or aiming system. I'm a button shooter using Real Player %. Your style may require adjustments. I play Season Mode with a completely custom team (Seattle Skyhawks - see the images above). I recommend making certain roster attribute, tendency, and badge changes as some issues can only be addressed through roster updates. More on that below. Remember that everyone's playstyle, preferences, and skill is different so your experience may vary. User vs CPU Sliders Here are the sliders. These are early draft sliders that I will be updating as I test, get feedback, and adjust for 2K patch impacts.

I recommend these changes. Spoiler You can only do this once you have started a League or Season so you can use the All Players screen while editing. Select Front Office then Roster. Enter Quick Edit mode and switch to the All Player screen. Attributes - To help with defensive reactions and help defense in particular, I suggest these two edits. Help IQ (Help IQ) +10 Defensive Consistency (DCNST) +10 Tendencies - See the table below for my recommended edits. Lets use Drive as an example. Sort the Drive tendency in descending order. Manually reduce the individual top players until the max scores are 80. Then select the entire column (Press A to cycle through individual cell, row, and column options until you have the entire column selected) and flick the right stick down 35 (so the max score is now 45 since you started with a max score of 80) then flick the right stick up 5. All the scores that were just at 0 are now at 5 and the max up from 45 to is 50. You will now have a range for Drive from 5 to 50 for all players. If any column adjustment has max scores of 100, I flick down once to set the max to 99. I'll also check the top scores for any tendency to see if the top rated players look right and adjust a few top players manually as needed. A note on the contested midrange and contested 3pt tendency - increasing these two tendencies improves the overall offensive flow and decision making of the CPU team and avoids the CPU's tendency (no pun intended) to over pass and run down the clock. The willingness to take move contested shots seems to be an important adjustment for better CPU offense. Here is the table of tendency edits. Badges - I have adjusted badges because I find they are unrealistic. I mostly rely on roster Attributes and Tendencies for good gameplay. I use the global edit feature to edit badges. In your roster, use the quick edit feature, go to the all players screen. Flick the right stick down once for each badge column to eliminate the bronze badges badges. Legendary becomes Gold, Gold becomes Silver, and Silver becomes bronze. I leave the Blue personality badges unchanged. From justintasha1996's slider post (you should check it out) and Celtic's roster work (also check it out and donate if you can), these badge changes should be made in your roster. These 15 badges (the list is in the order you will find them) should be completely removed as they provide unrealistic arcade like boosts to attributes - 1.Pro touch (Pt) 2.Comeback Kid (CK) 3.Green Machine (GM) 4.Volume Shooter ( VS) 5.Floor General (FG) 6.Hypher Drive ( HD) 7.Post Playmaker (PP) 8.Unpluckable (UNP) 9.Vice Grip (VG) 10.Ankle Braces (ABR) 11.Boxout Beast (BB) 12.Chase Down Artist (CDA) 13.Pogo Stick (PS) 14.Rebound Chaser (RC) 15.Work Horse (WH) Add these defensive badges (also in the order you will find them) to every player: 1.Challenger 2.Clamps (CLP) 3.Off Ball Pest (OBP) 4.Pick Dodger (PD) 5.Post Lockdown (PL) MyLeague Settings Here are the MyLeague setting I am using. For now I seem to be getting pretty good Sim stats, but you probably need to make the roster tendency edits noted below also. Spoiler Quarter Length - 12min Simulated Quarter Length - 12min Normalize Played to Sim Minutes - Off Normalized Played to Sim Stats - Off FATIGUE Player Fatigue Rate - 50 Player Recovery Rate - 50 TEAM STYLE FACTORS Team Pace - 5 Team Fastbreak - 35 POSSESSION RESULTS Possessions Per Game - 5 Shots - 5 Assists - 5 Steals - 40 Blocks - 55 Turnovers - 50 Fouls - 5 Injuries - 5 SHOT TYPES Dunk - 50 Layup - 55 Shot Close - 50 Shot Medium - 65 Shot three - 25 SHOT PERCENTAGE Dunk Percentage - 40 Layup Percentage - 40 Close Range Shot Percentage - 40 Medium Range Shot Percentage - 40 Three Point Percentage - 40 Free Throw Percentage - 50 STAT DISTRIBUTIONS Shot Distribution - 35 Offensive Rebound Distribution - 40 Defensive Rebound Distribution - 40 Team Rebounds - 50 Assist Distribution - 25 Steam Distribution - 40 Block Distribution - 40 Foul Distribution - 40 Coaching Adjustments Set the Help Defense slider to more than 70. I have every team set to 75 and like the help defense I'm seeing. I have also set each team to Protect the Paint and Play Physical for better spacing and more fouls. Reminders Everyone's expectations, style, and skills are different. Use these and other sliders as ideas to try out and adjust to fit what works for you. Make suggestions and test things out. Post your findings and results for others to benefit. Be kind. Have fun. Thanks again - as always!

Is is possible to change coaching settings in game regarding protect the paint and physical as I can't change for other coaches in myleauge outside. In game I can switch sides and change for other team but I can't gond it where if it is possible

You can only change the other team in game by switching sides. Here is how you do it in the settings outside of a game.

In MyLeague settings outside of a game, you need to change the settings for what teams you control. Go to Options, then select MyLeague Automation and set each team to User Controlled = Yes. Then go to Coaching, and select Coach Gameplan to set the various couch settings for each team. Once you are done, go back to Options, MyLeague Automation to set each team (other than the team you are using) to User Controlled = No.

Also I set ACE to Off for Offense and Defense as I don't want the CPU changing settings during the game.

That should do the trick.

Good game vs. Philly. It was a game of big runs. I started hot and went up by about 8 early in the first quarter, but Philly went on a 16-4 run and ended the quarter up by 4. They kept the lead for most of the 2nd quarter then I went on a run to lead by 10 at the half.

In the 2nd half I stretched the lead to more than 20 but Embiid and Harden lead a run for Philly to cut the lead to single digits early in the 4th quarter. Embiid fouled out with 7 minutes in the game which helped me hold on. My big man also fouled out with about 3 minutes left in the game, but by then we had it in hand.

Turnovers (17) were trouble for Philly that I took advantage of, scoring 24 points off their miscues.

Not a great shooting game, but a physical and defensive game.

Everyone's skills, experience, and style is different. Playbooks, use of freelance, camera used, and lots of other things can make the game play differently. So try a slider set or two, then tweak things that feel right and generate the sort of games and stats you are looking for. Then 2K will drop a patch and mess you up so you adjust again LOL! Also your brain will get used to some settings making what was hard earlier, easier now. So sometimes you need to adjust a little anyway. I hope you have fun. Shout out if you have questions.

Thank you.

Right now playing with your slider set. However, I'm playing with only 5 minute quarter length and with no other changes to attributes, tendencies and badges you made (just sliders). Really don't have time and patience for more.

Like the gameplay but currently, I'm losing evey game. Oposing side is shooting 55-65 percent from field, I am getting between 40 and 45.

What is your guess, is this because I am still in learning process and this slider set is for more skilled and experienced gamers?
Or because I haven't adjusted other stuff (badges, attributes, tendencies, coaching)?

Hey dek - hang in there. As with many games, there is a learning curve with 2K, so keep at it.

Most likely it's a few things. Best guess it's a combo of just still learning, plus some thing's you have not done yet or figured out like finding the freelance set that works for you, adjusting your playbook to plays you know well and that fit your team, stuff like that.

What I'd suggest are these changes to get you going -

Adjust the CPU Shooting sliders down to match the Human sliders. The change both the CPU Off and Def consistency to 50 (from the current setting of 65). See how that plays.

Watch your stats and see what else seems off or out of line and we can tweak other stuff if needed.

Far and away my favorite Freelance set is Flow. You will have off ball screens set for players on the perimeter creating movement and open jumpers or possible lanes to drive. I like this set because it triggers so quickly compared to some other sets. Set Flow to the Freelance 1 spot during a game and it will stay there for future games (set once and done).

I find having a Freelance set that you like and learn makes the game so much easier to play.

See if these couple things help.
