Ostertag, I am tire of being able to block 10 shots per game with Yao, and I am tire of computer not giving Shaq or Duncan the ball!

Something should not be designed for another purpose other than to reflect how the real game is play.įor others like me, I want it to be realistic. Live even said that the “pro-hop” was purposely designed for people to abuse it, particularly those who are new to the game. Players who are not true game or sports players wants the high flying basketball game where you can dunk every time and score when ever possible. In fact, I believe the reason why most sports game are not realistic is because it is trying to attract players who are not true game or sports player. For those who either play basketball or watch basketball their whole life knows how the real game is play and we can obviously see that the game does not reflect realism. A lot of people just play the game, as it is designed and reflect little on how it can improve. People who know most about the game are the one who can find faults, challenge it, and change it for the better. However, this does not mean that I can not voice my own opinions on what Live can do to better game playing. I am probably one of the biggest Live fans out there.

To compensate for thisĥ) Decrease every player’s shooting abilities and three point abilities by 1 (except players on Charlotte Bobcats, Live made them worse than they really are) The draw back with decreasing blocking abilities is that it becomes easier to make shots. This works best if you play with All-Star mode.ġ) Change computer's adjustable shot frequency to 100Ģ) Decrease both user and computer blocking abilities to 30ģ) Change lay-up, dunk block abilities to 10 Here is the best solution I found so far.

Realistic scoring, most of you will end up shooting somewhere in the range of. Harder to score when being double teamed, making players more willing to give the ball up More injuries, most NBA players do not play at 100% Harder to make 3’s, you can't just come up and shoot, you have to make an effort to run your offense if you want to score, average about.
