BballLife sim heads Sliders - All star

[erancenter]

Hi all

So after playing this game A LOT over the past 10 days (and losing to the pc a lot) i think i managed to get a good base sliders for realistic and sim style gameplay.

The main issues i tried to tackle out of the box were:

1) too many off rebounds
2) too little 3's
3) not enough block shots by the ai
4) high fg% for both AI and user

I did a few things and i feel closer to real life balance (not quite there yet but i'm getting great gameplay).

1) i lowered the off rebound for both AI and User a lot + increased def rebound
2)increased mid+3 pts tendencies while reducing inside shot tendency.
3) changed coach setting only regarding inside-outside shot preference using the 3PA stats from last year with top 3rd of the teams slider on 75-85 mid tier on 50-60 and lower third below 40. (Sorry but i can't write all the ratings i've used per team right now). Link to stats below.
4) decreased on ball defense and defensive awareness a bit and increased help d strength - this helps in beating your man off the dribble (not in a cheesy way and not always) and creating rotation on d and ball movement.
5) increase blocking + vert to improve blocking.

6) decresed shot success in most ranges to get some more open looks misses (more realistic IMO).

7) i use all star sim as base and change from there. below are the slider - Feedback is more than welcome (only changes are mentioned):

Difficulty: All star
Minutes: Tested on 5 min but game me good results for full 12 mins as well
Game speed: 48-49

Inside shot success: 37/37
Close shot success: 36/36
Mid range success: 36/35 (need to find balance between AI and User)
3 point:43/37 (need to find balance between AI and User)
Layup defense strength (release)- 60/60 (rewarding hands up d)
Help D strength: 70/70
quickness: 47/47
Vert - 55 (blocking help)
speed: 46/46 (more realistic movement)
On ball d: 40/40
Blocking: 65 (improves AI blocking)
Off awareness 50/55 (AI make smart ball movement- will take whatever the defense gives)
Def awareness- 40/40 (more mistakes on d= more realistic)
Off reb:30/30 (still getting some rebs. but less)
Def reb: 60/60

Tendencies (AI only)
inside: 50
close:30
mid: 60
3pt:70

Remmember in order for 3pts to be shot when open without hasitation by the AI you need to edit coach profiles by that link:

Sort it by 3PA.

Enjoy and leave your feedback.

Thanks.

I'm tweaking those as we speak but a few things are clear:

Contested shots almost doesn't go in
FG% is lower
Offensive reb is lower

Great effect for sliders this year

Uploaded my roster for PC (search for "official" by mr. c). Tweaked POEs for teams as well.

Nice Idea, used your settings- They Hit Mostly Open shots, some contested..not many. Not enough FT's for either team and Not enough 3's for CPU
9- 3 appt. for CPU

9 FT att CPU 13 for me

CPU shot 38% and I shot 40%
