How to get cpu to play with more pace

[DarthRambo]

Just doing a couple cpu vs cpu games testing sliders on cpu side. Far too many times the cpu runs out the shot clock to 5 seconds before taking a shot. This has always been an issue with 2k, not as bad this year however.

What can I do to get cpu to play with a lot more pace?? I checked coach sliders and I don't see anything about pace of play. I thought there was something there in the past, but been years since I played 2k.

Increase their Offensive Awareness and tendency sliders. Especially Attack the Basket. The higher their shooting tendencies, the less picky they get about shooting. Set them too high, though, and they’ll just start chucking up ugly contested shots. And with Attack the Basket set high, they won’t just stand around and let the shot clock run down, they’ll look to get to the basket whenever they can.

Gotta find the right balance. It’s definitely a pain

Yeah no doubt it is a pain lol. I'm currently testing 80s era but that shouldn't matter for this.

I set both teams to score in transition as gameplan under offensive settings for 2nd half. Definitely helping quite a bit. I already have offensive awareness at 75. Would having defensive awareness at 75 counter that where it's null and void? Attack basket is 65.

Not really “counter”, as offensive awareness helps make the player with the ball more aware of open teammates he should pass to, or slight openings for a shot opportunity they might not react to fast enough at lower settings, things like that. So really offensive awareness counters defensive awareness, not the other way around.

I'm wondering the same thing. I like to play 8 min quarters but the cpu plays too slow and I'm not getting enough stats. Changing the Offensive Tempo to Shoot at Will doesn't seem to do much. I'm going to try lowering the Run Plays Frequency in Coach Gamelans to see if it helps them not slow it down

I found that upping their offensive awareness, as well as upping their attack the basket tendency makes them play with more pace.
