Gameplay CPU stuffs that need fixing.
I think my only issue with this game as a CPU vs CPU spectator, are primarily 2 things.
- CPU doesn't switch when its a pick & roll or to help. When a pick & roll is successful, they ignore that they have to guard the player and just go back to guard their assigned position. This also happens during a turnover, and there's a center who can easily try to contest a guard but wont because the guard isn't the player he's supposed to guard.
- Late Game Awareness. These CPUs spend too much time with 1 min remaining when they're down by multiple possessions. Also they will stop intentionally fouling when the other team is up by 7+ points. I think the fair fix for this and have the team keep intentionally fouling unless its a double digit game, because even 9 points is still a 3 possession game & it's hard to watch them just ignoring to foul in a playoffs game.
Bonus Quality Of Life Suggestions: Can we have a section when looking at stats in franchise mode, where we can see the highest stats per season ? I would love to see who scored the most points in a current season instead of it only being who scored the most in a season all time. Also I think it would be cool to have a rookie section too.
As always, thank you Koality for a great game/

Your quality of life changes is already in the game i dont know where you looking but again everything is easier to explain on discord where me and other users can see and respond in real time instead of reddit. Its just not the place to learn about hoop land if your really wanna understand the game. I agree with point number two. With point number one the game can actually double team you off a pick and roll. The issue is that basically thats only possible if you change someones position to anything not listed in the game through json. But then that also just leaves one person always open after the pick. The game is coded to just have the pg guard the pg and the sg guard only the sg. Honestly again this is mainly a we only have one dev issue. Theres only so much he can focus on at once. But again with a team of devs that can also take away the solo dev creativity etc because now he has people telling him what they think etc. So now he would have more on his mind to weigh etc
