Is anyone as frustrated as me with offensive rebounding?

Sun Nov 09, 2014 2:16 am

Don't get me wrong, I love the improvements made in the gameplay of 2K15. However, the offensive rebounding still is a sore spot for me. I can be playing great defense, trying to block out on the boards when the computer has a player come out of nowhere to grab the offensive rebound around 2 or 3 players. I know some players strength is grabbing them, but it's borderline ridiculous that you can't block out well enough on the defensive glass. Also annoying, is how easy are the layups that are made at the front of the rim. You send the help side defender over after they get in the lane, and they always make the shot, with very few blocks. Dribble penetration is in full force. Maybe I'm just a poor defender, or does this happen to others as well? Please describe some tips on how to deal with this. What about slider adjustments?

I noticed this as well. Perfect example of this was last night when I played against Kings (warriors vs. kings) and DeMarcus Cousins had 15 offensive boards with so many put-backs. I got killed in the paint. This isn't just one game, it happened on numerous occasions (at least for those games that did not crash/freeze). I did not bother to adjust the sliders. From now, as soon as the shot is released I just run with a point guard straight to the paint to block out and grab the rebound (now Steph has the same stat line like lebron lol 25pts, 11 assists, 8 rebounds, 2 steals).

Before the game got patched the offensive rebounding was out of control, the mycareer cpu had 15 offensive rebounds by end of 1st quarter.

But since the 2 patches we got it's been better, maybe only like 5-6 a game.
