Hi!

In my game(12704705)

The statistics of points per 100 are kind odd: my bests defenders have played as PG's(OD:12,5 and 11,5). At the SG position has played a OD: 7.
My opponent salaries of SG and PG are very similar( 9k)

And the results are:
Opponent: PG 98,9 SG:43,7

I played inidividual defence. I would expect just the contrary statistics in the PG and SG positions.

Bye!

well I scrimmaged another EBBL team and caused 17 TOs and conceded 5 and out-rebounded them 2:1 to win 135-68. Now, they started their reserves but... that seems a *big* difference. Not that I'm complaining, far from it

Dear buzzerbeater-team,

after watching the scrimmage, on which the game engine updates (improved rebounding system, more turnovers, more assists) apply, I have some remarks about the game engine:

I think there are improvements on the number of assists in a game to meet realistic stats.

Concerning the turnovers per game I think, the game I had to watch was a little bit too exaggerated. Ok, the opponent team played Full court pressure, but in my opinion the number of turnovers can still be reduced. That turnover rate is only realistic in games of junior teams.

I can't say anything about rebounding, as it is difficult to say, how many rebounds I would have had with the old game engine.

I was a little surprised by the end result of our two teams (138:127). My team normally doesn't score over 110 points, but I don't know about the other team.

One thing is for sure: It is more fun to watch and I just loved the often right defensive guarding, while playing a Zone. That is definitely a huge plus, when watching the game.

These were just opinions and I am eager to read what you and other players think about the updated Game Engine.

Edit: When I first wrote this I thought I was the first writing about the new game engine, and didn't realize I posted it in the wrong forum.

13 TOs in 24 minutes.

Believe its a little unbalanced.

In general I like the higher number of assists - rebounding did not change a lot in todays game, so I cant comment on that. (12708137)

Strange rating for one of my plaaers though - 4/7 shooting, 2 Reb, 8 As, 6 Stl, 1 Foul in 29 minutes give a 4,0 rating? (8155991)

Imo the FG% and especially the FT% should be higher overall.

Outside Defense ratings are much lower than expected. Some teams in Spain have reported this.

For example this match (12703981), where the atl-estación team had a very low OD rating for a team that always have really good defenders. This could be a bug, which could explain the strange high scores of some matches... Are we playing without defense like the ASG???

no though the enthusiasm/HCA factor was turned down for better teams, can that explain this?

FT% didn't change. And they shouldn't (but that belongs to suggestions, there are threads about it.

In Spain there are several reports of teams claiming about low OD ratings, and they are teams from different leagues (from I to IV). The only rating affected is the OD defense and not for example rebound or ID which should have a similar behaviour with regard to enthusiasm/HCA.

It looks like a bug, and some users also reported that some bad players showed incredibly good shot %, against good opponents.

Very enlightening to report that my team, normally pretty decent rebounding team, scrimmaged tonight and gave up 30+ offensive boards—this with a sensational and a prolific rebounder in the lineup some, if not most, of the time. Admittedly, we played a 3-2 but it was still a little out of hand IMO...Pappy
