These sliders are designed to make Shot Timing and Defense meaningful.

With Eccentric's player movement sliders, the CPU Defense will constantly be at your throat. I've had to resort to a lot of difficult shots off the dribble.

Go into scrimmage mode, run plays, and set up your playbook.

If you're a turbo junky, increase User Fatigue Rate above 57 and force yourself to play at a slower tempo.


MyLeague Sliders will be posted later today after a test.

Fatigue Rate above 57? Man, that’s hardcore! Now I kind of want to try this, it would definitely force you to play slower and lay off the sprint button

I started on 62 and found 57 to be the sweet spot for me (and the CPU). I run a lot of plays and play the post- see my Tendency sliders.

I use the turbo strategically; tap it when I am trying to defend a fast break. I feel that if you're holding it down too much and constantly dribbling to evade a defender, you should be exerting way too much energy out of your player.

That's just my philosophy.

Re: My "Challenging" slider set

I'll try these out but it looks extremely unrealistic, which what I look for in 2K.

Fatigue at 57, at 50 they aren't realistic because players can't play realistic minutes based off team rotations.

I'm a defensive guy but shooting under 40% a game is hard.

Yeah, its definitely way too hard, but I think that I've created a pretty good foundation. I am going to tweak the Midrange and 3PT shot success aswell as the Jumpshot Defensive Strength sliders. I feel everything else is perfect.

I left the shot success/defense strength alone, and increased Pass Speed to 60 to compensate for the close-in speed.

Re: My "Challenging" slider set


I was killing the Lakers early on, greening in LeBron's face with KD. Lakers crept up, a series of lead changes occured, but the Lakers lead no more than 3 points.

It was a nail biter until the very end as LeBron would miss a game-tying free throw.

In the final seconds, it was back and forth 88-87. That defining moment came when DeAndre Jordan snatched the offensive rebound. KD sprinted to the top of the arc; dagger for 3.

91-87 Nets

Re: My "Challenging" slider set

I started test running my sliders in MyLeague. My focus is primarily on Player Development. The "In-Season Training" and "Progression" sliders are heavily emphasized in my MyLeague slider set. Player(s) will progress/degress attributes based on in-game exposure, but will most likely see drastic increases/decreases depending on which training regiment they follow in practice.

For example, take a rookie like Zion Williamson; what if I wanted to mold him into being a Charles Barkley type Power Forward instead of a LeBron James type player? I'd set up his training regiment in accordance to Charles Barkley's skillset and utilize Zion during games to reflect that.

I will try posting them by the weekend.
