Blocks & Computer 3Pt Shooting Need To be Toned down

[walk with me]

my only complaints in this game are

1 computer getting WAYYYYYYYYYY to many blocks
2 players shooting 3's in high amounts who arent capable of doing so

example...

david fisher shooting cross over pull up 3's in chauncey billups face with 20 seconds left on the shot clock...
not real
the lakers finish up with 15+ blocks in mulitple games..
not real

anyone with me on that?

I still don't understand how everyone doesn't know how to work the sliders by now...

[jdiddy_ub]

yep...those are my only 2 complaints as well...other than the non court issues..like online play and camera stuff

i dont want to change the sliders... changing the sliders means im not playing the game how its meant to be played... i could also make the 3 pointer sliders for my team all the way up so i win every single game....

i want the game how its meant to be played by the makers from 2k..
so im expecting a patch at some point...

i also dont like how the computer recovers faster defensively for my fast breaks
but when i try to recover on defense for the computers fast break there is no catching up

[shadio3]

15 blocks...haahhahahah. how in the hell is that possible. Every game i have maby 2 to 3 block a game..IT's you son, learn the game. USe the sliders...or pray to get better

im not changing the sliders for 2 reasons..

1- changing the sliders are for bums who cant adapt to the game
2- when you change the sliders the only game your playing is YOUR OWN! so when you play at your friends house or online your playing a totally different game .... no sense in changing the sliders...

and its definitely not me... trying playing the game on hall of fame

rasheed wallace will never have his dunks blocked from under the basket off the vert twice in a row... its would never ever happen

play the game on hof and youll see what im talking about... or trying playing the game on the factory default

[shadio3]

well you say you dont use sliders, well i dont get people playing in HOF mode. HOF mode is not a increase in skill, its a increase CHEAT for AI....do what i do, play on default but dont use the steal BUTTON when you play....just play close defense without using the steal button....makes your games hard, but very even & fair....

i never use the steal button... hall of fame mode is way to damn hard.. you can play perfect defense on your man but your computer always lets up something stupid

im talking about teh computer getting all these blocks by the way.... not me

[ohmybob]

Shadio is the biggest fanboy I have ever seen. My god what a joke.

"i dont want to change the sliders... changing the sliders means im not playing the game how its meant to be played... "

Yea I feel the same way about sliders. I know what they're for, but I just feel odd changing it from what the developers intended for you to play on

edit: Though I'm still waiting for my game, so I don't agree with you yet on your topic. Shadio is posting in every thread defending 2k or whining about others complaints about a game they paid $60(or more) for.

there are really to many blocks in the game,i played the demo yesterday and i had 8 or 9 blocks all with bynum or gasol

[LakerFan121]

You should have seen how many blocks Oden had when I played against Portland. I think he got like 9 blocks. If he's really that good on defense, I want him on my team.

[Ray AP19]

Any big is liable to get 5+ blocks in a game if he has a good defensive game

Now if he averaged 9 BPG, I'd see your point

ive been playing the lakers on hof since 12 o clock

the lakers average more than 10 blocks per game

thats really unrealistic

[walk with me]

its not even the amount of blocks.. its whats being blocked

rasheed wallace is rare.. if not never... getting block while attempting a dunk

so for it to happen twice in a row?

kinda silly

[Ray AP19]

That's not ridiculous. I could definitely see Josh Smith or Marcus Camby doing that. The elite shot-blockers can probably block anyone's dunk with the exception of maybe LeBron, Shaq and Dwight Howard.

Who was blockin the dunks?

[jdiddy_ub]

when i played portland greg odens stat line was like 22 pts 11 rebs 12 blks...and he shot like 9/10...then when i played the lakers bynum had 9 blks and like 8 offensive rebs...if you even try to make a shot on a big man it will get blocked...i dont understand why 2k believes that players cant score on big guys..just because you are shooting when theres big man in the vincinity doesnt mean hes gonna block it in real life....and the computer makes too many AND1's...i love the fact that there are a ton more fouls in this game than in the previous years..but come on...players dont finish layups 90% of the time when they get knocked to the ground

[forsberg78]

I agree with the blocking. I keep on getting stuffed in cases where it will never happen in real life. Like in one game I was using Stoudemire and Bogut just kept denying me all game long. I was playing the low post, doing spin moves, jump shots, break on dunks, nothing. The only way I got by Bogut was posting then doing a hook shot. WTF. It's Bogut. Not Yao+Josh Smith in one. Then again, I DID play on HOF, but still. It's not realistic.

I'm going to download some realistic sliders off the 2kshare feature and see how it goes.

shaq hell no
amare... maybe but less likely
dwight.. maybe more likely
camby ... definitely
dalembert... possibly
yao... maybe but less likely
pau... hell no
bynum... hell no

it was pau & bynum.. **** is rediculous... keep in mind based of real life stats

1. Marcus Camby, DEN 3.30
2. Josh Smith, ATL 2.88
3. Chris Kaman, LAC 2.64
4. Samuel Dalembert, PHI 2.57
5. Dwight Howard, ORL 2.38

top 5 shot blockers last year.... so to get 3 in one quarter consistently is rediculous

last year pau averaged 2.14 and bynum averaged 1.56

so how they getting like 10 per game between one another.. they gotta tone blocks down


edit:

word im with jdiddy.... all the defensive features and new shot blocking style are cool... it just needs to be toned down... its excessive

[gianniz]

well i like blocks, maybe cause i am an old school who grew up playing "run and gun" and "play by play 3" by konami for the arcades. they were the best and some aspects are done way better than 2k (hint guys check out their game). Block mean no cheesy 100 dunks per game :)

[walk with me]

its either 100 cheesy dunks per game
or 100 cheesy blockers per game

there has to be a happy medium

I'm with you 200% of the way. But, man...is it me or does the rebounding on the offense for the CPU need to also be toned down

[royuncg]

Computer averages about 2 blocks a game against me. Not sure what you are doing wrong. Probably trying to drive constantly. And as far as the three, guard the man on the perimeter.

yeah ... it almost seems like if the computer misses (on hall of fame) they automatically get the offensive board... haha i swear this year the computer on hall of fame is out for blood... it doesnt bother me too much tho because i dont think its excessive.. just a little annoying...

derek fisher shooting cross over pull up 3's in my face
and pau gasol blocking rasheed wallaces dunk 4 times in 1 quarter

thats excessive

play on hall of fame.... that might change the situation with the blocks for you...
