v1.00 released...

[Andrew]

Well i have to say something other than the ratings.. i've played with my friend.. i was playing with the kings and i penetrate into the basket with bibby and he did 360 -.-" and my friend thought i raised the ratings..

you'r patch did bibby+nash crazy dunkers.. and i dont think nash can dunk -.- and do 360..

check it man

Yes, I already know about things like that. Unfortunately this year dunkpacks are also recalculated oddly. Just something else that has been holding back the releases and make the patch a real chore to work on.

Hi Andrew - in general, are there any aspect of gameplay that you(others) do not like, are u planning to make any changes that will result in more realistic gameplay? ie. in your note about an up coming roster it said a mass shift in ratings will happen along with a change in sliders.

can you provide some insight on how game play will be impacted? im looking forward to the newwest patch

I didn't say I was releasing sliders with 1.01. I hoped to, but to be honest I hardly have any time to play at the moment so I'd rather not release the sliders I'm still working on. Sorry.

I cannot guarantee gameplay that's improved out of sight. There are some things you just can't do with a roster patch, at least to the point of perfection. Basically I'll be going through and changing as many ratings as I see fit, particularly blocking and rebounding ratings. I anticipate it will result in improved gameplay and simulated performance with some players showing more true to life performances in both areas but please understand at the end of the day I'm restricted by the AI/logic and some things can't be completely overcome by editing/sliders.

And again, everyone: I'm going through all the ratings. All means everyone, so you don't need to remind me to look at a particular player. Thanks.

Thanks for the response Andrew. Much appreciated

But Andrew, you WILL also include a UnInjured roster (the one that will be released tomorrow or so --> 1.01), right?
With all the superstars active on the roster...

[Jugs]

Just fix the un-injured rosters your self you lazy fucking Jasikevicius fan

[Jasikevicius3]

Yeah but I don't live in the USA.

So I don't know the REAL starting Lineups

Besides; Andrew does the UnInjured rosters anyway every year you

[Jona]

Please tell me you are joking.

[R.J.]

What's the point of playing a game when you don't even know who you are playing with?

[Scr0ll]

Haha, so you are not able to check out nba.com and look for the boxscore's?
