I chuckled at the new 2KTV episode because Scott OG is saying how ACE in MyCareer makes a lot of teams defend you differently and scoring is lower and etc. I am looking like what?

Every single game I just get doubled the same exact way and I am scoring way more than I did in 2K16. At least in 2K16 some teams played me without doubling. If they are going to double at least make it difficult and not a silly double team that leaves a big man open right in the paint everytime.

The only obvious sign of ACE is Kawhi or Klay guarding me. That's it.

I almost dropped my controller when I saw him discussing that...
ACE is horrendous this year and its not just the defensive CPU ACE for OG but Czar and his adjustments to transition offense as well as CPU off IQ level when running plays has been atrociously bad compared to past 2k's on superstar or HOF difficulty.

The main problems with CPU ACE is the double teaming with jr. high level help defense and rotations off double teams (in other words none at all) and when CPU players dig on post players, the digging OG implemented is nothing but the CPU spamming the steal button and racking up reach in fouls. CPU Curry picked up 3 fouls in 2 minutes because I kept posting up Anthony Davis on his side of the court and Curry would "dig" b/c the ACE told him Anthony Davis was hot, but curry would just slap at the ball picking up foul after foul...

The animations and fluidity of the game is a big upgrade from 2k16, but the CPU IQ took a noticeable step back when playing on SS or HOF

Here are some things Im seeing.

The CPU always varying its pick and roll coverage based on who theyare playing and who is hot/cold. Sometimes they go over, under, switch, hedge, stay attached.

They cross match bigs a lot. Often the CPU will put their 5 on my Blake Griffin if theyy have a small 4.

They switch on late game defensive possessions.

They double off your poorest shooter.

They double at good times (although yeah its over done).

They put their best defenders on your best scorers regardless of position.

Doesn't happen for me at all. Besides the Kawhi or Klay being on you. Doesn't really happen for any other team besides the obvious like it was in 2K16. Other than that. The doubles are very random. They'll send a big all the way to you from the paint and leave a big right under the rim.

This defensive ACE stuff is nothing like he was saying for me. Almost every team plays the same exact way on defense. Which is why this is the easiest HOF has ever been for me.

And we have to be playing a different game. They double at good times? Wow. That might be the craziest thing I've heard this year about this game. I can get 20 assist a game off the horrible doubles they send. And score 60 if I wanted to. Even a dev said they looking at working on them. Wow the double teams are nowhere near sent at good times. I wish I had your copy.

My leading scorer is only averaging 22 ppg, so that may be why Im not seeing a heap of doubles. The CPU does have a tendency to double one pass away off good shooters which I hope is fixed up.

Here's a really simple one. I play with the Clippers. Most teams go over the PNR with Paul. They always go under on Felton.

Who do you play with?

Are you talking MyGM or MyLeague? I am talking about MyCareer because that's what OG was talking about in the video. He said teams will play your guy differently. If he's in the corner they'll double in the corners or some other stuff. But most of what he was saying doesn't happen. It's just random double teams that leave any shooter open. I don't care if it's Steph Curry or leave a big wide open in the paint just to double you.

Maybe it works as advertised there. Not in MyCareer like he was saying.
