In my last dynasty game (Superstar difficulty) with the Brooklyn Nets, Deron Williams had 10 steals, that has to be fixed. Also, on 12 minute quarters my starters logged 48 minutes, not a single sub checked into the game. The other thing is the scoring inside, if the computer gets it into the paint, they're going to score and there's not a whole hell'uva lot you can do about it. Having fun with this, but it definitely needs some work.

1) Easy steals: Turn up reach in foul slider

2) No subs: In settings do you have subs on "auto"? Haven't had a problem with that

3) D in the key: It's still tough for me but I've gotten better by drawing charges and trying to strip the ball when they start to go up...but yes it's tough...

The great thing with this game is EA can change animations "on the fly". No official patch needed. I agree there are too many double pump flip shots which is especially crazy when I see the 7 footers doing it...

And the retail game is tons better than the demo! I've never bought 2 games of the same sport and didn't plan on it but now I have both games and have been playing Live nonstop...

Just update the damn rosters already...

I don't know what it is but it's just a fun game and looks great. I have 2K and I feel like I'm cheating on it by wanting live lol.

Pacers just shot 60% from 3pt line against me. This game is bipolar. They made 15 of them in the first half alone. With 10 of them over double teams.

The CPU can pretty much call upon that catch and shoot 3 anytime they feel like it, lol

I don't dare double team and leave anyone open behind the 3 pt line...automatic death...

# 609 Gotmadskillzson @ 11/03/14 02:08 AM

Kobe is a 3pt shooting god, he can hit 3s from anywhere. Which is weird considering he is rated 78 in 3pt shooting. Must be because of his 92 clutch rating.

Last year they shot 35% as a team (17th overall)

This year in a smaller sample they are at about 36%

I'd say the inflation is more a result of the Super Star level....you should test play on Pro and see if their numbers come close to their average from last or even their early season production.

When you see it happen if possible please show a video of it.

I'm more interested in the AI ability to execute this type of play in the game more than Human player input.

I've been beating a dead horse over it.

Thanks in advance if you ever witness it and can record it.

Set defense on shooters to tight (off and on ball). I rarely get high perrcentages from downtown shot against me by the cpu if I do this.

Never seen a one handed alley but you can definitely throw one to the roll man! Do it once a game

Right now I'm working on a alley to my SG or sf while calling a cut play to the bbasket. Seen the CPU pull it off once.

If they can fix that area of that game along with more control over the ball handler ill forget about sliders for one more year lol

# 619 The 24th Letter @ 11/03/14 09:19 AM

Anyone wanna get a game in online? PS4?

# 620 BL8001 @ 11/03/14 09:22 AM

I think I know why points in the paint are so high.

You can't really make the CPU pick up thier dribble with contact, certainly not with the frequency and probability of that on the CPU D end when you are dribbling.

It's the second component to the force field defense they have. One they repel you and Two if you keep pushing into them the game makes your player pick up his dribble.

Now on your D end the CPU can just push into you and push you back no matter the size of your player AND retain the dribble.

I know they can't/won't/shouldn't give us the force field but they could at least make our defenders with a serious size advantage force them to pick up the dribble if we establish a good defensive position.

The user just needs something to counter the force the CPU has going to the rim.

If you want to see it in action for observation purposes just control your PG and move him to the side allowing the CPU pg the lane. Then try to defend his attack down the lane.

The only way you have any success is if your defender times his jump and knocks the shot away. You can't use any defensive will and strength to keep them from the hoop. It's not something our controlled players have to use.
