Superstar with a few tweaks.

Eccentric's slider set is pretty similar to mine with two notable exceptions:
1. I use real player %
2. for some attributes Eccentric lowers the AI by 5 points to offset the boost they get at SS. I don't, I allow the AI to have a ratings boost to make up for its inability to equal a human's ability to scheme/adjust

Bruhhhhh I was so happy about the the organ playing at the Staples in the mamba moments
Untill I played a Laker home game in the Kobe Era
Talk about a deflated moment

This game is beautiful, coming from PS4 really show the difference not only the graphics and the control as well, i was mind blown didnt expect it. its harder than i thought and with all the buttons for gameplays.Youtube didnt do justice how this game looks like when you actually playing it.

Im playing Offline only current NBA in HOF, Broadcast Cam as always with VTCRB roster (zero badges for all players, attached below) and adjust sliders for more realistic outcome

Mannn..the movement the graphics how alive all of them...but..

1. Ai score easily even with low sliders for both.
2. they really need to fix the floor colors and reflection.
3. Do celebrity always sit in every game? played 3 games and didnt see a single one.
4. there is a bug i guess when doing layup animation not looking on the ring almost the head is sideways. happened 3 times.
5. the jersey too tight in the torso area need a little breathing room for it to flow and not part of the player skin.
6. they need to use Ai for the announcer and crowd instead to capture the moment as of now is so bland.
7. timeouts is not consistent for all 3 games i played..sometimes Ai didnt even call a single timeout in a 12 minute quarter.
8. Still some players need to be updated and they need to add hair physics even for short hair like Luka and Sabonis at least the front part.
9. nobody sweat in a 48 minutes game???
10. clippings still there.
11. broadcast cam need adjustment as it doesnt capture some certain homecourts. ex Suns
12. they need to remove or fix this sudden speed boost from cathing the ball or the Ai on ball defense lateral quickness no matter how i adjust it still happens.
13. while defending even if you avoid the screen its like you are getting suck into this animation. no matter how you adjust the direction of your player.
14. i was hoping that the sliders wouldnt have to go on the top all the time every time i switch from CPU and user while adjusting every slides because that was not helpful at all.

This are just somethings i notice that i hope they will be able to patch in the future.

My last game i played GSW and Kings in their home court i got cooked by Fox and i wasnt even mad at all. i got cooked beautifuly

Re: Closeouts

A lot to the times you’re more open than you think.

This is a strong perimeter defender in Battier closing out to Pierce and his super slow jumper. Complete your timing and let that thing fly.

When I see things like that that just yells contract agreement. It's a sacrifice I'm ok with. I rather it be that way than playing a Kobe moment and asking why that guy isn't there. I'd love to play with Jason Williams on the Kings. But it's ok.

I've noticed with player with deadeye isn't effected on those kind of close out. You need to get to his body. I've hit a bunch of really well contested shots with Dirk.

Depends on the shooter. I would assume Pierce has a lot of badges, and a high shot immunity. Certain guys I feel comfortable with closeouts, other guys no way. But, I guess that is realistic to an extent.

Depends. Trae Young’s Deadeye ain’t Dirk’s. Ha. I think shot height, mixed with deadeye and immunity is the key.
