played a game with diddy.
9min/hof.

LAL FG%: 38%
Celtics: 31%

i can't remember the score but it was somwhere in the 60s and 50s. very low. i like to have the league average clocking in at least in the 80s.
every other stat seemed realistic.
interior defense is good. but seems like offensive sliders need adjusting if we can manage to have PIP under 50% while having FG% above 40%.

If you and another person have the same first option for a team then my advice is to just let the guy above you take that team and go to your other options. Unless you really want that team or you're super confident you'll win. I'm just saying this because if you lose and your other two options are teams someone else wants you're gonna have to wait until everyone else picks their team first.

I'm not super confident I'll win. In fact I'm pretty confident I'd lose, but I really really want to play as the Bucks. I don't really follow any other team but them and the Bulls, so if I don't get them I guess I'm fine with whatever.

On that note, borghe, you'd be the greatest person ever if you let me have the Bucks.:lol

Is the league going to be played with real % on?
Click to expand...
that's what these test games are about. to determine whether or not real % will help create realistic stats and deflect cheesing. or the opposite.
the games with real% off, the fg% have been giving quite discouraging data.
that or i just suck and it will take a few more games to adjust.

HOF requires, literally, perfect releases in order for shots to be successful. couple that with the typical amount of latency involved in an online game (~1 second) and you're not going to be shooting much better than 40 something %. maybe real shooting % will raise the total FG % on HOF though--worth a test.

but it looks like all-star/superstar with adjusted sliders is going to be the sweet spot this year.

i assume the 2K leagues have always been on HOF in the past because of how bad the CPU AI (especially defensively) is on lower difficulty levels--among other things.

ive played with some league guys and shoot over 40% on avg. with the raised shot success rate HOF difficulty is fine for releases. there is just something about real shooting % that would make me feel even more disconnected from the action that is happening on the screen. half the fun is learning where your player likes the ball and perfecting their releases. real shooting % seems like it would take some skill outta things and leave it up to the computer 100%.

im not a proponent of real fg % for league play--assuming it works like real ft %, it removes too much user determination.

i still feel like HOF--specifically how it makes it so releases must be absolutely perfect for the game consider it to be a good release--is just not really optimal in an online environment.

i think your settings would work, or, what im gonna play with right now, your settings reversed (-3 3pt, -3 mid, etc) on superstar might work as well.

I sent Ronnie2K a message over twitter regarding the online disconnects, and his response was:

Ronnie2K
Alright that message means a divergence. We're looking into.

Whatever the hell that means.

ronnie is a pr monkey.
i take whatever he says with a grain of salt.
i still remember his countless lies back in the 2k10 fiasco.
with that said, its normal to have online bugs in the first couple of weeks of release.
i just hope the 2k engineers are up to the challenge.

EDIT: Latest:

Ronnie2K
Is anyone still having this issue mid-game? We think that this has been fixed: http://plixi.com/p/49219050

My copy was shipped. I should get it by next friday.

I want to read the 13 page manual, but every time i hit the link i get a 404 error message.

I went to the 2k website, downloads, chose 2k11 and got no results. Is there any other place i can get this manual?

Does that link work for you guys?

My last game I was disconnected. But other than that, no real problems. Slight lag of course, no stuttering. Smooth.

Kado, my bad about denying your request. I thought you were just some guy from MW2 sending an invite.
