Jordan Challenge Difficulty level

[hunterfan48]

Does it always default to Pro? And do you get more points or something for beating it in a higher difficulty?

Btw...if I'm not mistaken it always sets the quarter length at 8 correct?

[hunterfan48]

anybody got an answer?

Default is 8 min., and i don't think you get anything extra for beating it on higher difficulty, although don't quote me on that.
If you have PC version, you can change qtr. length.Difficulty is always defaulted on pro, bump it up manually for every game.

I'm on 360 and I can't figure out how to change the quarter length. I put it at 12 under options but then when I start a game its back to 8. And its really hard to get six assists with Jordan on the first challenge the rest of the team is garbage. Guys missing wide open dunks and 10 footers off of perfect passes from Jordan.

Yeah you can't change it unfortunately (the qrt length).

I usually focus on the assists first because it's so easy to score that the points are pretty easy to make up but assists can be a bit more difficult.

Sucks that you can't change the quarter length, just because I'd like it to feel more realistic instead of runnin down court and jackin up shots and dunkin over people all game to score 63 or 69. You don't have time to make the game flow like a real game would. Still fun to dominate with MJ though.

At 12 min quarters I could score 100, get 15 rebounds, 10 steals, and 15 assists the way Jordan plays in the game. I understand why they keep it at 8 min. That's part of the challenge IMO.

Right now I am finding the Finals series against the Lakers impossible to win. I can get all the averages needed, but the Lakers just murder me. Looks like I am going to downgrade to rookie just so I can get this challenge done already!
