NBA 2K12 Video - Strategy Session 4: Shooting Slider Adjustments (Da_Czar)

[SaC_KiNg09]

Am I the only one who feels that we may not need any slider tweaks? I'm getting healthy 3pt percentages and I'm seeing wide open threes being knocked down while also seeing some missed, nothing out of the ordinary. I hope they dont tune the game where we can't hit threes.

Your right Czar, I don't know what I was thinking about. I guess I became so dependent on downloading Coach Profiles the last couple of years it slipped my mind. . . I guess it's that old school in me starting to show

I guess I can tweak the Coach Profiles for a few teams until something better get's released. Appreciate the tip brother

I was only getting to the basket a couple times a game by taken what I was given by the defense. I plan on raising the contact sliders as my iso skills improve once again. Thanks for the tips, their both working out pretty good so far.

how often do you play with other users that know the game well? It can be an eye opener when you thought your game was so realistic offline only to have a player zig-zag into shots, hit contested threes and turn scrubs into all-stars.

Interesting thanks! But IMPORTANT QUESTION. I realize that when two users/humans are playing the sliders gets labeled as Home an Away settings. Why is that? Does each User get there own sliders? I always wondered if that is the case, but then if you save the sliders (or they auto-save) the home sliders will save/over-write the User sliders, and Away sliders will do the same for the CPU sliders.

yeah i noticed that a few years ago. which is why i always create 2 different slider sets. one for me vs the CPU and one for User vs User matches.

this. in fact I put it at 49 for both just because I find the cpu struggles a bit on Pro.
