I tried to warn everyone last week!

I can't wait to see the YouTube mycareer guys adjust.

You wanna fire away and shot poorly for that 35 or get that 22 with 6 assists and keep it moving?

I know that allstar/superstar sim is confirmed as the best setting for sim heads as of last year and this year as far as game tuning goes. I didn't pick up 2k15, but I read somewhere here last year that the cpu attribute boosts on Superstar and HOF were no longer visible in the substitution menu. If I remember right from before, allstar was even, below allstar gave user boosts, and above meant cpu attribute boosts.

For HOF slider guys like me, that makes it tricky. I always like to play on HOF for the added challenge and to make wins feel more meaningful, but I'd also be sure to nerf those cpu boosts in my custom sliders to make it an even playing field attribute wise(ex cpu players not being faster then user players through speed boosts). Any chance those will once again be visible in the substitution screen this year?

I agree for the most part. Usually through sliders I can get almost all the stats pretty close to real life on average over the course of a full length game. While at the same time keeping a real feel to the gameplay. The beauty is in the abnormalities for example some games you shoot lights out, some you struggle, but in the end if things are averaging out to close to real sim numbers while the game is playing as realistically as possible that's what you should want out of the game.

The only one that has always bugged me personally is the turnovers. Usually I find that in order to get realistic turnover numbers (without getting unrealistically high steal numbers) on average, I have to lower pass accuracy for both teams to the point that simple passes such as even imbounds are flying over teammates heads. I'd like to see more organic turnovers off miscommunication or just a bad pass from a low rated passer without the ball being off target by like 20 yards over head lol. With the pass accuracy on default I find there to almost be no turnovers that aren't steals. Lowering hands and dribbling attributes helps some though.

The CPU Milwaukee Bucks handed out 4 L's to the community yesterday. I like to call them "Authentic L's"

There's nothing in the game that's going to cheat you, their switch scheme combined with length was causing problems.
