Why not make all-star more challenging???

2k said that All-star difficulty is the most balanced from a gameplay standpoint
So why not make it more challenging by on default
When I up the sliders like offense awareness the cpu still brain dead ect..

I'm playing on All Star and cpu is far from brain dead both offensively and defensively. I'm a NBA2k vet for 24 years and this year's game is one the most challenging ones. The majority of my All Star difficulty games are so close it's getting ridiculous now. Ofc it might be a skill issue, you might be way better than me. I play on Real Player % and I feel that if I go to Superstar difficulty I'll be totally destroyed by the cpu.

My issue is that All-Star is too challenging and Pro is way too easy.

Can’t find that middle ground. Also it feels like this years version is the least differentiation between teams.

Can’t find the spot where I win most games with good teams but lose most with bad teams.

I definitely think one thing that keeps CPU in games is Offensive Rebounding seems skewed to CPU advantage and it doesn’t seem to matter who you play they almost always get 2x the amount of O boards that I do.

Played last night 91 Lakers vs 91 Twolves in myNBA. Major advantage for Lakers who I was. Got out rebounded by almost 20 and killed on o boards by Felton Spencer. Ended up winning by 9 but they got like 15 more shots than me because of o boards

I should also mention I play with Real Shooting %

In terms of standard gameplay, do you all agree that all star is the most balanced? Any notable adjustments it needs?

In previous 2K’s I had to adjust a ton to get it right.

I personally play on Superstar because I like the challenge, but I find HOF with High Risk shooting to be the most balanced. It makes me think when I play and actually take care of the ball instead of just throwing it around and getting easy wide open jumpers since the CPU AI is a little too slow/relaxed.

I think HoF is the most balanced. You can get away with too much BS on the lower levels.
