This game’s HUD design is crazy, when I am controlling the player in the middle of the screen, how can I read the small menu on the left/right hand side? The only thing I can do is memorize all setting. Amazing that this game is 20+ generations but still have bad HUD design… looks forward to see you have videos about few more playbooks on different famous teams

    Can you break down how to break down a defender? You teach us a lot of moves, but things happen so fast I rarely can see these queues you mention or am already in a dribble move that doesn’t allow me to use size up escapes or escape jumpers. Honestly I wish people used Eye trackers, but like I never know where to look. Because if I only look at my defender to see the subtleties, I miss the rest of the court. And I actually played irl, but since I can’t feel a dribble, I can’t really look away like irl

    Is there a way to set cpu rotation setting to fatique and have it remain when you play the cpu. When playing against cpu in-game, you have to take control of the cpu team to change their roster rotation setting to fatigue. In doing so it disables all accumulated stats and milestons so they don't count for that game. How do you automatically set cpu to fatigue and have the setting remain when you actually play the cpu. Fatigue stays on effect for user controlled team but not the cpu.

    How well does the bounce and lob icon passing translate to rec and park?

    • @KevinCruz016
      @KevinCruz016  2 роки тому +1

      Oh that's a tough one because the park and rec footage I see is mostly people not understanding spacing. But if you run with a good squad that knows how to space the floor and run basic actions, these moves can be helpful. I imagine this is more of a 5 man offense type of tutorial, but definitely still something you can pick up in terms of improvising in the Rec.
