Hi! Firs, i apologize my bad english.
Its extremely hard to hit 3pointer in nba live 2008. My opinion is, take a good shooter and go practice mode. Take about 3x10 3ptrs. If you are able to hit about 80-90% percent, then you get the right value. Every good shooter in nba can hit this much in real practice. I think that accurate slider value is 60-65 in superstar mode. Medium and short range shooting values are much lower.

Here are my sliders for 12min and superstar:

Global Sliders

Game Speed 25 (i like slower pace, but im european :wink: )
Free Throw Dif. 70 (depends how good are you. Its common, that you have to rise this value after some time)
Boundary Force 75
Injury Frequency 15
Charge/Block Foul 60
Shooting Foul 96
Reach-in Foul 60
In-air Collision Foul 80

User Sliders

Steal 20 (its littlebit high, but i have bad habit to reach and try steal the ball. Because of that i use high reachin foul value. Sometimes you can steal, but sometimes if you player dont have high steal rating its foul.).
Interception 10
Shot Block 20
Dunk/Lay-up Block 80
Freestyle Eff. 60
Dunk vs. Lay-up 5 (dunkfiesta is not realistic)
On-ball Defense 50
Offensive Reb. 5
Defensive Reb. 95
Fakeout 10
Short Range 43
Medium Range 50
Long Range 64
Dunk % 44
Lay-up % 44
Adjusted Shot % 50
On-ball Physical 50
Poor Release Shot % 50
Double-team Eff. 60
Pro-Hop Eff. 5
Drop Step Eff. 5

CPU Sliders

Steal 35
Interception 30 (you must think if you pass the ball)
Shot Block 40
Dunk/Lay-up Block 95 (before you go and take a easy layup, you have to judge the situation. If poor sg goes facetoface with good shotblocker, its extremly possible to get blocked. You must think and then act like in real game)
Freestyle Eff. 60
Dunk Freq. 5 (dunkfiesta!)
Substitution 50
Offensive Reb. 10
Defensive Reb. 98
Fakeout 60
Short Range 40
Medium Range 40
Long Range 41
Dunk % 40
Lay-up % 47
Adjusted Shot % 47
Adjusted Shot Freq. 20
On-ball Physical 55 (this rating is one of the most important in game. Lower the rating and CPU player cant run past your defence)
Poor Release Shot % 39
Double-team Eff. 60
Pro-Hop Eff. 30
Drop Step Eff. 30

I apologize again, my english is bad, but i hope your understand. I get pretty realistic stats. Its important to adjust your game. If you pass sloppy and take wrong shots and layups, the balance in stats is gone.

The PC and PS2 versions are identical in terms of gameplay so any PC sliders should be fine to use with the PS2 version.

I really like your sliders saatanus.

Is there anything we can do about the lots of turnovers the cpu still commits. It's like i see 5 till 10 times a Backcourt violation of the cpu every game. Also their shooting percentage is sometimes really superb.

I have the feeling the user momentum is based on turnovers of the cpu.
And the cpu momentum is based on missing shots of the user.

This will be my first post.

First of all, greetings to community. and merry christmas :xmas:

Here is my sliders after a significant amount of try & test.

Platform: PC
Difficulty: Superstar
Quarter Length: 7-8 min.

I am too lazy to write it all of the values down so here is the sequential screenshots of them:

Global
Image

User1
Image

User2
Image

User3
Image

CPU1
Image

CPU2
Image

CPU3
Image

I hope these are the sliders for people who are seeking the ultimate one :wink: Please don't ask why that value is 32 instead of 35 or 87 in place of a simple 90. Those are hiding that I've made up :P joking apart, all of them have rationale. (hopefully for everyone else)

I agree with Saatanus: it's extremely hard to hit 3pointer in nba live 2008. Need 60+ value.
The short range shooting values are much lower.
And the cpu defense in Live 08 is a very shit.

I like realistic game but without annoying features (like too much fouls, or a lot of dunk)
These sliders are for gameplay realistic and amusing. :wink:

Sliders set for 6-7-8 min. in Superstar mode, Realistic Roster v.2 (aiact Kris 1.32 + ILT patch) with Maek fatigue fix 1.3

On-Ball Physic. Defense 100
Poor Release Shot Perc. 40
Double-Team Effect. 70
Pro-Hop Effect. 55

The values opf cpu is high because in Live 08 is too easy driving to the rim.
I think only the best highflyer and great insiders/slashers players have this easy life... :wink:

Is there a way by the sliders to eliminate (or minimize) those shitty lay-ups where the player hits the rim with the ball like he has never played basketball before? It happens when the player is below the rim (not always).

And I have a little problem with the CPU substitution. The stars of the CPU team don't play the last minutes of the game. It's like they play almost the entire game and are too tired at the end. I'm playing 5 minutes, superstar with fatigue effect on High.
Thanks...

So saatanus sliders are good? Do they work ok for 8 minute quarters?

What kinds of scores and stats do you get?

Cheers.

So whats the verdict on the best PC sliders for realistic stats and gameplay?

Ive only just got the game. Im about 8 or 9 games into my dynasty and I'm getting bored with the gameplay out of the box. I play superstar 8 mins at the moment and its too easy driving to the hoop all day long for dunks, while i cant shoot to save myself.

i think ive only hit 1 or 2 three pointers so far!

And Kirk Heinrich is a league leading rebounder.

The players will still take and make too many dunks.
Lay-ups in traffic will be missed.
Crazy Layups will be missed.
Open Jumpers and open layups will go in.
GO TO Moves still work.
Field goal percentages will be down, but still a bit too high.
Charges will be taken.
Players will get into foul trouble.

Overall this should give you a more simulation like experience.

PC Sliders for level Superstar 8 minutes please. I always seem to win with all tha slider i've tried except for lagoa's hardcore slider. it seems impossible to win with that slider. i want to have some close games and lose some games.

Edit: i notice that changin camera view to broadcast makes tha game a little harder becuz im used to baseline view. to have a close game i would say lower user's layup percentage,freestyle effectiveness,dunk vs layup freq. and game speed. and raise up the cpu shooting percentage or have it as the same as the user's
