Holy Sweet Pete! Still working on 'Acrobat'. I want to say this as politely as possible, I don't need a 'how to'. I need to see if there is anyone out there that has had this issue and figured out how to get 'Acrobat'.

I can't list all the things I've done, it would be way too long. The basics, MyPlayer stopped doing change of layups about a week or 2 ago. I had already reached my 15 reverse layups. I already have 2 change of direction shots. I bought the Drexler dunk package around when this happened. ????????

To give you a very small taste of what I've done...I've equipped 1 (only) dunk package and have run through the entire list in the practice gym. Let me clarify, I've selected 1 dunk package and tried 10 times each dunk package and MyPlayer will NOT change their shot.

This is just a very minor sample of the things I've tried this weekend. Please don't respond if you're going to tell me how to do the change of direction shot. I know how, read my previous posts.

I am only looking for OSers that had an issue with change of shot not happening at all!!!

If someone asked about 'Acrobat' today, I'd say get your 4 change of shots immediately before getting your 15 reverses.

I have a resolution to my 'Acrobat' problem. Unfortunately it's not a solution, but it is a work around. So out of everything I've done I've been unable to perform a change shot dunk. It just won't happen any more. But I did find that I can change my layup shot.

So if anyone is having this or has this happen in the future...Stop, jump stop, slow down about 2 feet from the hoop. I could only do this using analog btw. Crack your right analog towards the hoop and do a circle or semi-circle as quickly as you can. Works 95% of the time. Your player will go into their shot animation and look like a complete spaz and change the shot direction. Again, I can no longer change my dunk animation, just my layup.

Why were you trying it with dunks didn't people tell you to do it with layups as they're slower and less canned

Because since launch I could do it with dunks whenever I tried. You get a longer 'held ball' animation with (HA! they edited CxCK ->) **** back tomahawk dunks.

Not the point either. If I tried doing it on a driving layup it won't work. I need to actually stop my forward momentum and then start my layup animation.

Have you tried it with the Jordan animation? Probable won't make a difference but that's what I used on 5 careers to get it.

[BellSKA]

Yeah, I tried it with MJ. I got it right after I figured out my work around. I just needed 2 change of direction shots. Not sure what triggered my lack of change of direction shots though.

I'll try and make another MyPlayer and see what happens if I get my 4 change of shots first then get 15 reverse layups. I got my reverses in a couple games. It's very easy, unless something like this happens.

Can someone please tell me exactly
what Defensive assist strength and Boxout Assist strength is??? I know its suppose to help guide you in some way but I never really understood what exactly turning it from 0 to 100 or 100 to 0 is suppose to do? Is it just a placebo effect or does it really matter. What are the games default settings for these?

I can't tell you exactly, but I can tell you what I've done. My box out assist is at zero. I felt like MyPlayer was boxing out anyone and everyone even if they were out at the 3 point line. Now I just go into box out animation and then search for the nearest player crashing the boards to box out. Defensive assist strength I have set at 55. My defender tends to help better during picks/ screens. I also have my shot defense set to aggressive. I don't like to jump aimlessly all over the court. If I have my right analog on & my hands up MyPlayer will contest the shot IF they actually take it.
