Yo Popboy! Love your work, always has :) Quick question: I noticed it's super tough to make post shots. Any adjustments we can do for bigs like Jokic, Vucevic, and Embiid to be more used as how they play in real life? I'd love to dominate with them with post hooks without having to spam drop stepper which seems to be the only usable move when posting up.

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Hey yo thank u!! Man u could not be more right. This might be my least fav thing in the entire game. I've done testing just isolating post shots and it's not pretty at all. The CPU actually sucks at it too...but it's the worst for the user. And the problem doesn't even have anything to do with the defense cuz the contest grades r actually pretty low. It's partially the meter and partially just a flaw in their programming. We can't do anything about the latter, but we can do some things with the meter. The only problem is we don't wanna mess up all the other types of shots. So once again, 2K kinda gets us stuck between a rock and hard place. By any chance r u playing on player lock?

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Ya know actually this is one of the areas I was so happy with in 2K24. It's a lot easier now imo. So in the offensive settings, I select my usual fav plays...and then I literally leave everything else on auto. The 4 freelance settings and the series thing at the bottom r all auto for me. When u do that, the coach will simply call a play from ur playbook each time down the floor. It takes all that crap we had to deal with last year out. No more calling like the same 2 actions every single time and getting super repetitive. It's great as long as u like the plays in ur playbook, can recognize them and u know how to run them. And then of course u can easily override the coach's call by calling a play on ur list of fav plays or the normal positional play calling. That's why I would recommend not even messing with the freelance or the series stuff this year. U can customize ur playbook and put those same actions and concepts in ur playbook anyway👍👍

@randallbowman2930 Ай бұрын

I apologize if you've already mentioned this and I just missed it, but one thing I learned the hard, brutally agonizing way, is that settings are era-specific for a reason. Not just because of the way the game itself was different back in the 80's and 90's, but also because, loading your modern era settings into any of those older eras will result in bringing along the play-in tournament for the postseason. It took me three complete resets of MyNBA franchises to finally catch this. Once I reloaded your Jordan era settings, the play-in tournament disappeared (You can tell by looking at the standings. If "PI - clinched play-in berth" isn't there, that means you have a legacy playoff format). Thank you again for your hard work!

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Yeah that's a great point. U would think it just wouldn't even give u the option in the past eras so the setting wouldn't even matter. So wait tho...now that I'm thinking more about it...when u start a new MyNBA in the one of the past eras, doesn't it give u the option before u get to the settings to have or not have the play-in? Know what I mean? On the setup screen with all the squares??

@randallbowman2930 Ай бұрын

@@ThePopboy That's the crazy thing, sir! They do NOT give you the option for a play-in tournament in those older eras. They only let you choose the number games for each playoff round. I mean, is it possible that I am still just missing that somewhere (when I restart a MyNBA franchise from scratch)? Sure. But my goodness, I spent a great deal of time carefully scouring over every possible option, especially within the rule changes section... nothing. NOTHING about a play-in tournament shows up, at least not in the Jordan or earlier eras. So here's how I finally discovered how my Jordan-era saves got "infected" by the play-in tournament: I opened a save that still had the legacy playoff format in place. I exported the settings, opened up a "corrupted" save and imported those other settings. Doing that made the play-in tournament disappear. But when I reloaded YOUR settings, it came back! So I just said screw it, and I reloaded my other settings and then manually entered all of your settings. And now it's all good. So now I am just wondering, what on earth is happening within the settings import process, that is causing the playoff format to change? That is just totally bizarre to me. On another note, I really wish 2K would give us the option to choose between a 2-3-2 or 2-2-1-1-1 Finals format. Anyway, I rambled long enough. Thank you for your feedback!

Hey Popboy, I appreciate all the work you put into these sliders, I was wondering which slider set would you recommend for someone who plays player locked? I like to play my franchise as a random player each game and I find the beyond HoF sliders aren't working for me as a player locked position so far. It might be because I'm playing as an expansion team with low talent, but I'm wondering if you have a recommendation for the player locked players like myself. Thank you in advance!

@ThePopboy 2 ай бұрын

Yeah that's a great question...I've wanted to do sliders just for player lock for a while but I haven't been happy with them yet. I really just wish 2K would give us a 3rd side of sliders for player lock so we have sliders that only apply to our player and separate sliders that only apply to our teammates. Until they give us that, we're left kinda doing a dance and tryna accomplish 2 different things with one slider. That being said, I do test the normal sliders on player lock as well, and I'd recommend dropping down 1 diff level from what u'd normally play on...especially if ur teammates r lacking in talent. If ur doing a rebuild of one of the worst teams in the league, then I'd even consider just starting at 2 levels down from ur normal. Then u can move if/when u improve the roster.

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Lol I'm actually doing a Pistons rebuild and I've been doing all his training on his outside shooting tryna make him somewhat decent from 3. I've made exactly 2 3's with him over like a season and a half🤣 I know what u mean for sure tho...the CPU makes 3's with some guys and I'm like wow I would NEVER be able to make a 3 with that guy if he were on my team. The problem with the sliders is they're not player-specific. Know what I mean? So we could say okay let's lower the CPU's 3PT success slider to help the problem...but then they're actual good 3PT shooters r gonna miss too many. However, I do believe this problem, at least partly, comes from the fact that the CPU kinda has like "auto timing" on their shots. So as of right now, we have the CPU's shot timing impact slider at zero, which is the default...that does make sense cuz they don't really have to time their meter like a person would. But u could try to raise the CPU's timing impact to penalize them more for sub-par timing on their shots. That slider is our best chance at cutting to the root of the problem. That does affect the good shooters as well, but it affects the average/below average shooters more. I would maybe only raise it like 5-10 notches if u wanna try that cuz we don't wanna downgrade their good shooters too much. What kinda 3PT %'s does the CPU normally shoot against u overall??

@brynebruce Ай бұрын

A couple things ive noticed. For reference I use Beyond HOF and play Player Lock. One is Ive noticed CPU make 80% or higher contested 3PT shots WAYY more often than they should be, what would I have to change for that? Also, with the 3Pt tendencies being so high, 65 and lower 3pt rating players will always shoot the 3 if left wide open and still make it at a decent rate. Last thing is how do i stop the CPUs from pulling up for a 5 foot shot instead of taking a layup/dunk when the lane is wide open, its so frustrating to see. LOVE your work tho, been using your sliders for a while now!

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Hey thank u for the feedback!! Really appreciate it!! So the thing with them pulling up for those dumb little shots instead of going all the way...I know EXACTLY what ur talking about and I also cannot stand that. I've actually done some testing to try to isolate just that situation, and unfortunately, it truly is just a flaw in the programming. Guys still do it at pretty much the same exact rate regardless of the sliders and the player tendency ratings. It's so dumb cuz it's even with guys who r known for poster dunks/contact dunks🤦‍♂ The other thing with guys who have lower 3pt ratings still shooting open 3's...I also know what u mean here. That's getting into the whole player tendency ratings thing, which is a whole other can of worms. That's part of the custom roster side of things. I really want to get more into that in the future but I haven't been able to that much yet. I know that fixing that would involve lowering the open 3 tendency rating for each individual player. What roster do u use currently? The official 2K one or another? The other thing is one of the reasons I was disappointed when 2K took out the contested shot ratings!! Remember they used to have a rating for every player: there was an open 3 rating, and moving 3 rating and a contested 3 rating. And then the same for mid range!! Now they try to stuff all that into 1 3pt shot rating and it just loses some nuance. That doesn't mean that we can't make this better tho. So 1st, can u tell me when u get to the end of a game, what kind of 3pt % does the CPU normally end up with? Also, do u play on 12 min quarters or something else? And roughly how many 3pt attempts is the CPU taking per game. Sorry for all the questions!! I'll keep a close eye out for ur reply so I can get back to u fast!! 👍👍

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Yeah I know exactly what u mean!!! I've been yelling at them to fix it for a minute now. Sometimes it's not even that contested at all!! It's actually way worse on last gen, if u can believe it. On new gen, it really is tied to player ratings. The defensive strength sliders don't affect the meter at all. They only determine the contest grades. So putting those super low only makes it so u get like "open" shot grades when the shot was actually contested. To help with this...we have to do it in kind of a roundabout way cuz there's nothing that will literally stop the green bar from shrinking. However, we can lower the 2 impact sliders...the shot contest impact and the shot timing impact. Lowering those makes it a litter easier to make contested shots even with that shrinking green bar. I have them pretty low in my sliders...I wanna balance it so it helps contested shots but also doesn't make open shots too easy. That's why I would LOVE if they gave us those 2 sliders ONLY for contested shots!! But still u could lower these 2 more. What do u currently have those 2 set on for the user side??

Honestly NBA 2k sliders, pop boy these are good, how does the development team have shot timing for the cpu at 0 the difference between having it at 0 and 1 is a vast difference, also with coverage impact if you move that even slightly from the default of 30 on HOF to even a 32, it starts getting realistic, there shouldn't be such a big difference in 2 notches on the slider, some NBA games you have teams down the floor 3 times with out a made basket, like NBA players can miss wide open shots as well, not every wide open shot has to go in for the CPU, love your work bro

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Oh man I freaking LOVE this comment!!! I run into exactly what u said ALL the time! That's always a big part of the testing: finding that breaking point in the sliders. Sometimes u can move a slider 20 or 30 notches and it won't do much at all...but then u hit that breaking point and a single notch or 2 makes a huge difference. It's the most true thing ever in 2K: not every notch is created equal. NOT EVEN CLOSE!!! With the shot timing impact slider for the CPU, it threw me off at 1st that they had it at 0...but it kinda makes sense if u think about it. Just cuz the CPU really doesn't have to time shots like the user. Or it's kinda like "auto timing" or something. I also totally agree about the open shots. It always sucks when somebody misses a few open shots and they tell me my sliders suck. I'm like okay this person should prolly watch an NBA and see that it happens all the time...especially perimeter shots. That's actually one of the main reasons I don't like using the real player % setting: it gets too predictable with makes and misses. It almost becomes like all open shots go in and all contested shots miss. I love having the meter even tho it can be frustrating at times. I've always looked at it like this: the meter just gives u the opportunity to overcome the contest with a high level of user skill. That's great!! Also that's one of the most fun things in real games: the best players on planet earth and their incredible shot making!! Always have to balance it tho so it doesn't get cheesy.

I prefer the meter cuz I like having that element of user skill baked into my chances to make or miss a shot. That being said, I do test on both. I aim to make them produce similar results either way cuz I know some ppl just flat-out hate the using the meter. This year's meter is better than past years imo tho...just takes some practice to get a feel for. The one thing I always find with real player % is that it gets a little predictable imo. It's almost like the game focuses too much on how open the shooter is when deciding if it's gonna go in or not. So after a while, u start to be able to kinda predict what shots r gonna drop and what shots aren't. I like how using the meter gives u at least an opportunity to overcome the D with precision and skill and make more contested shots. It's def harder to hit the meter on contested shots so it doesn't get cheesy or anything. Sorry that's prolly way more than u bargained for!! lol I tend to do that!😂

Any chance I could use these with real player percentage instead of shot timing

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Yeah for sure!! I use the timing myself, but I also do testing with the sliders on real player %. Normally, my strategy is to downplay the effect of the shot meter by using a low setting for the shot timing impact slider. That would make the sliders operate very similarly on both shot timing and real player % (assuming the user is decently comfortable with the meter). So the stats should come out pretty similar on either one. The only thing I'll say about real player % is that it tends to get a little predictable imo. U start to be able to kinda predict what's gonna go in & what's not. It's like real player % makes the game focus that much more on how open u r when deciding if the shot's gonna drop or not. I guess it makes sense cuz without the timing, the game really only has openness & ratings to go on. I know the meter can be frustrating at times, but it does get better with practice imo. I've always just liked having that element of user skill play into my chances to make a shot. Another way of looking at it is the meter kinda gives u the opportunity to overcome the contest with high level skill/timing. On real player %, I just find myself saying okay well that shot was contested so there's really nothing I can do to give myself at least maybe a small chance of making it. With the meter, contested shots r still hard to make, but it's satisfying when u get that one shot where the D was great but ur offense was just better. Kinda like real life a lotta times!! With all that being said, I still know ppl who just don't like the meter, and they swear by real player %. So I say if ur enjoying it and getting good results, that's all that matters!!👍👍

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Oh boy do I know exactly what u mean!! It's prob my least fav thing about the programming in the whole game...and a lotta times, it's not even really a contact shot. Like ur pretty open and a defender comes in kinda late and ur green area gets way smaller way late. It's hard to adjust to cuz ur doing ur timing based on the green area u had at 1st. So there's a couple things here. The 1st: unless I'm WIDE open, I always try to get my meter as close to the very top as possible, just in case that green area gets smaller on me mid-shot. With the sliders, a lotta ppl think it's the defensive strength sliders. That's not it at all. Those just determine the contest % on the shots. At the end of the day, we're fighting against something that's just in the programming, so it's not like there's a 100% fix for it. However, the best way to help is to lower the user's shot timing impact slider. It's kind of a roundabout fix...cuz it'll still shrink on u and make it harder to get green. However, lowering this slider will make more yellow releases go in. So it makes it easier in that sense. The only problem is this also applies to open shots of course. That's why I wouldn't lower it too much. Maybe just like 4 notches or so at 1st. U can adjust more if u find that it's not making open shots too easy for u. Another thing is lowering the user's shot coverage impact slider. That helps a little bit--again in a roundabout way--but it's not life-changing.

@@fabs2533 Hey I saw u were having the same issue, so I just copied my response on the comment to make sure u saw it!👍⬇ Oh boy do I know exactly what u mean!! It's prob my least fav thing about the programming in the whole game...and a lotta times, it's not even really a contact shot. Like ur pretty open and a defender comes in kinda late and ur green area gets way smaller way late. It's hard to adjust to cuz ur doing ur timing based on the green area u had at 1st. So there's a couple things here. The 1st: unless I'm WIDE open, I always try to get my meter as close to the very top as possible, just in case that green area gets smaller on me mid-shot. With the sliders, a lotta ppl think it's the defensive strength sliders. That's not it at all. Those just determine the contest % on the shots. At the end of the day, we're fighting against something that's just in the programming, so it's not like there's a 100% fix for it. However, the best way to help is to lower the user's shot timing impact slider. It's kind of a roundabout fix...cuz it'll still shrink on u and make it harder to get green.

CPU offense is overpowered, they score tons of three while you, the user can't make one even you play with players like lakers with high three point rating. Reaves, Bron, Rui, Dlo couldn't make one... CPU did a lot, easily. Anyway is a good start to make it challenge it but cpu is overpowered. I only got TC 39% and a 19%3P while CPU TC 51 and 34%3P and think this is due to low consistency and awareness offensive/defensive user. Im playing in HOF. Inside shots for CPU are high as well, they just kill you.

I realized that either the players are too big or the court is just too small on 2k. I tested this and It’s a minor detail but if you edit the players height by 3 or 4 inches (I started at 7 and worked my way down I think 3 is best) the game not only looks better to me but also plays a bit better. You don’t get your cpu teammates running into each other anymore because of their wingspan and such and it creates so much space on the floor for isos. Only downside is players aren’t listed their actual height and some have to jump a bit higher to dunk. 😂 It also gives you a bit more time to get your shots off too becuz they take longer to close out. Might have to edit some things after but it’s fun. Just something I found thought I’d share with y’all. Great work tho Pop

I’ve been saying this for YEARS. If you go back to last gen 2K13/14 for the PS3/360, you’ll see how the players are smaller, which results in true midrange games, and better floor spacing. When they updated 2K14 for the new consoles, that’s when the player size increase happened, and it has been the same ever since.

@@tanirothschild4741 Hey my man yeah I do kinda see what u mean. It's harder on 3's. I guess it should be but they go overboard. Especially with guys like Luka, etc. They make the green on the meter too small when u get much past the line. It's almost hard to see. On ur actual meter preferences, do u use the large meter? That's helped me some cuz it's helps when u can actually at least kinda see that tiny green area. For the actual sliders, if everything else is coming out good, I'm not sure how much we wanna go tweaking cuz anything we do will affect all the other shots. U could lower the user's shot timing impact slider by a few notches, but I wouldn't do too much more than that. We don't wanna make all the other types of shots too easy.

@ThePopboy Ай бұрын

Sprinting is just R2/RT but I'm sure u know that...do u mean how u kinda get stuck when ur the pick n roll ball handler? Like u can't quite burst right away off the screen? That's a programming thing to stop the pick n rolls from being overpowered. I kinda get it but they went too far with it. There's 2 methods that help: 1st one is to start moving right before the screen is set. U don't wanna do too much cuz it increases the risk of a moving screen. A lotta times I'll kinda rock back n forth as he's coming up to set the screen. Or I'll find a good size up combo that kinda gets up moving some side to side. Those pre-programmed combos lower the risk of an illegal screen call vs just moving with the L stick. Number 2 is to get space between the ball handler and the screen. That reduces that rub u feel/that invisible wall u run into. From a slider perspective, lowering the user's body up sensitivity does help to offset that programming to a degree. The only problem with this is we don't want to make the 1 on 1 defense too weak. If u put that body sensitivity too low, it'll do that. That's why, if u go that route, I would only lower like 8 notches at the most. Sorry I just wrote u a novel!!! Lol I eat and breathe this stuff so I tend to do that!!🤣🤣

I did test to see if the body up sensitivity slider affects this...nope. It's literally just a flaw in the programming. In terms of player's ur not controlling, it's literally like they don't understand the object of the game. Like they don't realize there's an opportunity right in front of they're face if they would just RUN!! The worst is when they start jogging when there's a fastbreak opportunity. Some ppl thought that might be the movement sliders, but it's not. Those calibrate the relative speed of the players when they're running...it doesn't make them actually decide to run smh.

@@maniacodepresiv0 That's why I was tryna ask how much the top scoring teams in ur league were scoring...and then I was also gonna ask about total FG attempts per game. For simulated games, that's a good indicator of pace...since ur not actually watching the games so u can't see the pace. But overall shot attempts per game is a great way to measure that on simmed games imo. On my current simulation sliders, I'm getting pretty much right on with total attempts per game. I will say the scoring is a little bit high on mine...but that's to be expected to some degree. I've always believe that the shooting %'s in the played games should be just a little bit higher than irl...in the interest of overall flow and scoring numbers. So then we of course wanna make the simulated games in our league kinda on par with the played games. So I'm not too concerned if the leading teams in the league r scoring a little bit more than irl. But it shouldn't be much. I would also caution against looking at individual games to measure this. Just because simmed games in 2K can have some INSANE scores. Those should be outliers tho. That's why I'd look at the team stats and see what everybody's averaging per game in terms of PPG and FG attempts per game. If u think they're too high, u would lower the possessions slider in the simulation sliders. That will give u fewer total possessions in the simmed games.
