Rebounding in 2k12 needs to be fixed

[good5689]

And in advance, please spare any "learn how to play the game better" or "don't hate on 2k i love them!" type of comments. If you disagree with me that's fine, but those type of comments are stupid and pointless. I'm no rookie at nba 2k(i've played since dreamcast) and i don't hate on 2k, i just think they can do better, and that these flaws can get in the way of a pretty good game.

my main problem with rebounding is the CPU's magical suction box outs of doom. It seems as though Strength, weight, and momentum have absolutely no affect. I can come in from the 3point line at a full sprint with Dwight Howard and then Mike bibby can slide in from 4 feet to my left and have a 100% insurmountable box out. ON DWIGHT HOWARD.

The CPU can also force you out of position when you are waiting to snag an offensive board. Set up a big man under the basket with 2 seconds left on the shot clock INSIDE of the defense. My player is then magically forced into an attempt at posting up. THAT IS NOT WHAT I WANT TO DO. WHY WOULD I POST UP WITH 2 SECONDS LEFT ON THE SHOT CLOCK. That random post up forces you into outside position, where the CPU can then perform one of their super suction box outs on you. Its just plain stupid.

Whereas the CPU escapes my box outs like my players are 3rd graders who have never played basketball before.

This makes playing my player as a big men ridiculously boring, because its virtually impossible to get offensive boards. It needs to be fixed.

the only problem in rebounding is that the ai(hum/cpu) doesn't boxout always.

Turn up the difficulty or change the slider for 3 point shooting down. I have a good feeling that most of the idiots complaining about the 3 point shooting are playing on default settings with Rookie or Pro difficulty.

I haven't found the rebounding bad at all. I have the Offensive Rebounding slider set to 100 for both sides and the Defensive Rebounding slider for both sides left alone. I get pretty competetive rebounding stats for the majority of my games with a decent amount of offensive boards grabbed. I also like that the over the back fouls are called more often than it was in 2K11.

Rebounding works fine, I dont know why some people come and act like this is global issue that all cant rebound or box out.

I use the left trigger to box out and it works perfectly. I bet some use the left trigger when they are a mile from the opposing player and see no boxing out and come running here demanding a fix.

Rebounding works fine and if you box out with the left trigger then you will be in position.


3 pt shooting is another thing I see little issue with

This is all off line because I dont play cheese ball online

Rebounding seems to work fine for me. I'm just boxing out with L2 and that's it.

yep. Nash outrebounded both Dwight and J-Rich while they both had good position. Hilarious.

Rodman consistently gets over 10 rebounds for me in a 6 minute game, and I even had a game in which D. Rose had 6 boards in a 5 minute game. Maybe I should try using Minnesota to see if a low vertical rebounder like K. Love is capable, but so far, I am not seeing any glaring rebounding issues.

All Star Sim settings by the way.
