OBG's NHL 18 Supersim Sliders (low passing percentages guaranteed)

[onlybygrace]

Ok guys...

With this set the CPU and Human end up with passing percentages in the high 50s and low 60s.

NOTE: DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT CHECK PASSING PERCENTAGES JUST A FEW MINUTES INTO THE GAME BUT ALLOW FATIGUE TO SET IN AND THATS WHEN YOULL SEE THE NUMBERS BEGIN TO PAN OUT!!!!

Ive had teams pass at 90 percent for the first few minutes of the game and end up at 70 percent by the end of the 1st period, 65 midway through the 2nd, and be around 60 at the end of the game.

Hopefully Ive been clear on that.

Additionally, dont sit back and watch the CPU pass the puck around waiting for them to make bad passes. Lower pass percentages come after fatigue has set in and combined with good defense. Give them time and space and youll be burned.

Below I will post the sliders AND a couple gameplay montages so that you can see highlights WHICH INCLUDE GAME STATS

Additionally...

There are some slider values you wont be accustomed to seeing at the point they are at. Just try them.

Ratings sliders are heavily boosted to increase player separation. Slap shot power increase has allowed point shots to have a very realistic chance of finding the net just often enough to make them a threat with the right shooters. This has NOT caused an increase of slap shot goals by forwards, if youre wondering.

Just punch them in and give them a few games. Gameplay is skilled yet sloppy as the above linked videos show.

Once again, sorry for the method. Dont shoot me. Lol

Enjoy.

Here is gameclips from my official opening night in Pittsburgh. Im satisfied but thinking of upping period length from 8 to 9. Gonna wait a bit on that.

Btw, i was just notified that i didnt include the General section of the sliders in my little video. DOH!!!! So the next post will have them all written out. Ugh, i hate doing this. Lol

Sliders posted. I guess that wasnt so bad. Hehe

[Steven547]

It's nice to see the passing % low. It seems that is affected by the pass reception rating. Are you seeing proper player separation?

Yeppers. Sure am.

Some of the ones that seem odd you indicate that yes, that is the value, but for CPU Fatigue Effect, you don't at '8'. Is it supposed to be '8' or a typo of '80'?
