Freshman to Sophmore hookup on a sick oop 💪🏾

6’6 SG Luis Huertas has been lighting it up at Florida State this season and this lob is indicative of a deep title run for Florida State under Coach Harris after losing last year in the Sweet Sixteen.

Frustrating Sim

I love this game, but i swear on my life it makes me want to drive off a bride sometimes. Best squad I had at Utah Vally with two seniors in the 90s and another one high 80s and I sim the first game in the conference tournament against a team that's won 5 games all season and I lose. Another NIT appearance for my team that went 25-6.

DualShock 4 PS3 NCAA 10

Hi all. I’m thinking about pulling out my PS3 and buying NCAA 10 on eBay but I had a question about DualShock 4 compatibility. My PS3 controller has some buttons that are not working and I was reading where the DualShock 4 is basically plug and play but compatibility varies by game? Idk how true that is so I’m asking here. Anybody playing NCAA 10 with a DualShock 4 controller? Any issues? Thanks!

Which gameplay is better in terms of realism 2k8 or ncca 10?

Don’t really care about graphics and I understand that 2k 8 hoops has a better dynasty, but which gameplay is more realistic and does ncca 10 have real player rosters? Happy Thanksgiving guys!

Does the recruits that are interested in you increase as you improve

So say you are a school like Grambling and eventually win a few titles. Do better recruits become more interested in your school as a result?

How do you sign 5⭐️ players at mid major schools in 2k8?

I feel like I sometimes see people on this subreddit signing a few 5 stars at mid majors. How do I do that?

Mouse In The House 🐁

I use to watch A lot of Cleveland Cavaliers basketball with my dad when Kyrie was a rookie/till he left Cleveland.

Anyway..

They had an announcer who would always say “We got a mouse in the house” when a guard would switch off to a C/PF.

Has always stuck with me in memory that I have to get them the ball when switched happen lol

Gameplay Advice/Help

I know this is a near 20 year old game so expectations should be tempered in line with that, but despite absolutely adoring the depth of the Legacy Mode, I'm banging my head up against gameplay a little.

It should be noted I'm playing with a custom slider set I found online (which seemed well reviewed), but I'm finding the gameplay a bit difficult to get a genuine/realistically flowing offense in.

I've run both Motion and 4-out offenses and find that generally my offense comes down to:

A. An open 3 if the defender gets strangely loose
B. Dumping into the post and looking for the up and under or kick-out
C. Panicking and RT dribbling towards the paint and looking for a foul or a lucky finish

I also find that running plays manually/automatically rarely leads to an open shot being generated.

I'm playing on the hardest difficulty and I'm finding myself able to beat the AI, so its not that (just knocked off LSU in a non-conference tournament in season 2 of my Kennesaw State save) but I find it really hard to get an offense going that feels smooth or where I get realistic stats; I basically generate 4-5 shots off assists in any given game and as someone with a bit of stat OCD when it comes to sports games this really bothers me.

Does anyone in the community have any advice re: playbooks, sliders or anything else that they find helps with this, or is it kind of just one of those things you deal with given the games age?

Is recruiting really just calling, emailing, scouting, requesting tape, and visiting them every week?

Are there other options unlocked at certain interest levels or something? Am I doing it wrong?

I'm not sure what I'm expecting from a game that's almost 20 years old but I just want to make sure I'm recruiting right.

I just got 2K7 and I'm playing as Stanford because they have the Lopez twins as freshmen. I have a few 4 stars and a 3 star with me as their top school but I only had 1 scholarship to offer. Will the other ones play for me without one? Will they just drop me for their top school with an offer?

Freezing issues while downloading to hardrive

I have encountered some freezing issues at the end of the season in my dynasty and decided I would try to download the game directly to harddrive. It gets to about 30% during the dowload and then hits me with a "the disc is dirty/scratched blah blah blah" (The disc is relatively clean/unscratched)

Are you guys able to download directly to your console? Any work around I can try? Would downloading to my hardrive even fix the bugs???

I've played the game for over a decade now and know that dynasty is buggy but I did not expect to encounter problems when trying to dowload to my hard drive. What gives?

How to change reserves?

My game auto-assigned my best PG as a reserve and I can’t find how to change it. Somehow 3 of my better OVR players are reserves and absolute bums are locked into the line up.
