Agreed. Each player jumps/shoots differently.

Anyone finding it annoyingly difficult to pass out of a shot? It's almost impossible, for me at least.

Also, i'm sick of tapping the button for a headfake and the guy shoots. Even if it does go in an unusual amount of the time.

I have been playing on varsity with the cpu's shot on 60 and mine on 35. I got destroyed by Duke playing as UVA, and almost lost to Buffalo on the road, I think varsity is fine IMO, just have to boost the ratings for the CPU, especially cpu Shot fake defense, user steals way down, I will have to see how it plays when I use a better team than UVA, but I have Sylvan Landesburg and he went 8- for 22 in a game even with high his high ratings. Sometimes the cpu comes out and pays good no matter who your playing, I was down to Belmont by 12 at half , I came back and won however.

If ya want to play on varsity you got to turn your shot way down, and help the cpu's interior defense, fight through screens, shot fake proness, post strength, post hands, etc...

I still don't know if this will be hard enough long term though ,I hope so, I mean its hard for me too stopthe cpu thats for sure. I would not give up on varsity though.

i play All COnference:

Human shooting at 38, 3 point at 36
CPU Shooting at 40, 3 points at 38

can play 20 min. halves with realistic scores, and both teams shooting at least 44%. (well provided i dont get too trigger happy with the off ball switch, then i might go 60%. he he)


Got crushed by Purdue in the tournament. Robbie Hummel is a scoring machine.

One of the devs said in the Live forum that the timing of your release has little to do with the result of the shot. Try holding it a little later than usual though, in Live that's how people found the most success, there will be a little hitch if you do it properly.

I can never get it down. Most of my shots and half of the shots I see in videos look very hitchy but the result doesn't really seem to be affected.

As a person who is very critical of form that is one thing that makes me upset about this game.

Hey what level did you decide on? I am still messing with varsity.

Well back to Varsity....lol


I finally have a good set of sliders that make me feel like the tough games are tough, the easy games are easy...and the occasional bum squad gives me challenge.

That's what I was looking for...and after 25 plus games, I think I feel like Ehh has said all along..Varsity is the way to go( at least for me )

[ehh]

Staying with varsity, I spent a few days making an AA set and it was more challenging but the CPU didn't play to their ratings at all and saw too many things I didn't like - mostly the athleticism of the CPU.

There are some awesome things on AA, such as more charges and some new animations but you can hardly tell the difference between playing UNC or UNC-Wilmington. Plus the ol' contact on drives issue.

I'll probably post my Varsity sliders in the next few days, just need to do some more tweaking and testing to try and lower the CPU post issue.
