Video

planning to get a lot more videos out, appreciate the insight aswell!

its one of the more in depth sports game that was made, the reborn mod is bringing a new life to it aswell!

this a mod, i linked the discord to the mod in the description

just wait until you see Part 2!

My game crashes quite often also i have to make sure to save often, but it is a lot for the pc to handle being you are running a ps3 on your pc.

i know you can on console but i haven’t tried to do it on the PC yet

I did the same I’m getting it this Thursday through Amazon lol

Or get it free on ur pc🤦‍♂️

@@smothersu3932 I prefer console I dont have a PC, I have a macbook

@@fortunehby Macs can run psx2, save yourself 150 big ones my man

unfortunately you can’t on this game

yessir! the makers of this mod redid all the courts also. it looked really nice

The Albany court looked the same as my old version and my larger point was that the Final 4 was played in a high school gym?

that’s weird and very unfortunate my auto save works just fine i do believe it’s a setting you have to turn on tho

i only tested from 1 min half’s up to 5 min half and the points you earned for scouting did not change during this. you received 40 points for playing the game regardless of half length.

@@yerpmansports Thank you.

i am using a ps3 emulator on pc as of right now the reborn mod is not available for xbox

Can’t wait till it comes to Xbox (if ever) I play 2k7 but would pay the $65 for 2k8 if it did

@@user-fi5cc5tv7u College Hoops 2k8 is on xbox 360 the price for a disc these days are getting pretty high though

@@yerpmansports I meant the mod not 2k8 lol 😂

it’s on the way!

I really appreciate this man, really gives me the motivation to keep going! would love to work together on some stuff some day for sure!

thanks for the tip! on this mod it seems they have added a lot more 4 and 5 star recruits each year, making it a lot easier as a beginner school

You can kind of tell where they rank if you put them on your target list with the ranked US players you're going after and sort by rating.

They seem to have pretty bad potential.

not that i am aware of.

More to come!

@@yerpmansportsdo Long beach State👍🏾

Gonna get start it after releasing this next video!

that’s a great idea i appreciate it! will start working on something like this asap!

Vimm’s lair, but first you need to download an emulator. For either the xbox 360 or ps3, whichever you prefer.

i’m not quite sure i’ll have to do some digging and testing will get back to you adap

how were you able to put the recruit on a ABL Team

i’ve haven’t had a chance to play it yet. do you think it’s better than 2k8. i honestly like the recruiting in 2k8 as it isn’t easy like ncaa

@@yerpmansports it’s not better but the recruiting is so hard in 2k8. In 2k7, once you get offered a job at a power or major college, the recruiting becomes a whole lot easier. Not the same for 2k8.

Nah this game is easy.. I usually just look for a top 10 world sophomore and stalk him for a year.. Have a 100% ratio signing the player

if you hold left trigger while defending it will keep you kinda locked in on them and move you towards them slightly but if the player starts doing a bunch a dribble moves good chances he will go right by you

Glad to help

i don’t yet, my best advice would be driving and shooting as many layups as possible. Centers are very overpowered. also turn on true shooting % so 3 point ratings actually make a difference

I play on the hardest difficulty but tuned the user shot sliders. 3pt shot, mid range and inside shots are on 60 everything else on 50. You will see more jump shots and layups fall.

red is going to be minus point and white is going to be plus points, at 1:00 in the video you can see i’ll gain 30 points in white for a perfect release on the shot but i lose 25 points in red for missing the shot. green just indicates your total score. yellow is the required score, really just color coordinations to help people not get it confused. Hope this Helps

@@yerpmansports I’m sorry I might’ve asked this wrong! Lol if you look at the individual player and their ratings. What do the different colors indicate there? My original thought of this was if it’s red they have a chance to regress or progress slowly (via simulated training), white means neutral, green meaning potential for this rating is reached..

haha all good, i think your along the right lines though, the way i look at it is i think white is normal progression, red is slowed and green is accelerated. meaning how fast each attribute will increase

@@yerpmansports awesome, never got an explanation of this and have been playing the game for years- glad I’ve been able to get some form of understanding.. thanks for the convo! 👍🏼

very late on this but i actually think that green means the player is close to upgrading the skill, white means their in the middle of it, and red means they just upgraded, hence why the numbers can change colors even for the same attribute. as an example, green could mean that the player is >80% to upgrading it, white could mean >40%, and red could mean >0%

Thank you for this 😂

honestly i would recommend not having a crazy out of conference schedule if you’re in a power conference bc your conference will be more than enough tough games to keep you ranked and get you in the tournament. player confidence plays a big part in team chemistry, if multiple players are upset it will significantly hurt the team, i would use as many pep talks and meeting with players as much as i can. also take into account the minutes everyone plays. if a guy is a starter one year and the next he’s 7th man he will take a significant drop. Some players when you recruit them their main priority is playing time especially 5 stars so if they don’t get enough in their first season they will grow to be unhappy very quick. Also need to take into account player experience when putting lineups together, it can lower a players confidence if they have no experience compared to the rest of the team having lots. one way to combat this is having a Coach on Floor.

appreciate it reggie!

got you bro will start working on it

yessir i appreciate that!!

Huge! really let’s you know how get a player is going to be. i put potential over just about anything when recruiting a player

@@yerpmansports alright thank you

each player gets a randomly assigned free throw best thing you can do is find one you really like and then change everyone’s free throw on your team to that one. free throws are very hard especially if your using different ones for every player

@@yerpmansports what do I press and how should the timing be because I’m doing a rebuild type legacy and I missed ever single one I took in the first game

use Right analog stick pull it down then when the ball gets close to the top his head pull it back up

@@claytoncook3862 go to options, gameplay and its at the bottom. You should be able to change it to the right stick. Mine was set to motion and I had to move my control like flicking a wrist to shoot. It is challenging that way.

team performance highly effects your job offers more than anything the next best thing is coaching stats the game doesn’t care to much for top recruiting classes if they don’t perform

@@yerpmansports is this ps2 or ps3 version?

i’m using xbox 360 version

@@yerpmansports by using xbox 360 emulator or xbox 360 system ?

xbox 360 system i do believe there is a emulator version out there for playstation

3 pointers are kinda funny in this game well shots in general as you play you will notice a lot of made shots where you felt as if you were playing really good defense and you were right in there face I think the game works more off of player rating rather than how well you can contest the shot, you should keep this in mind if you have a really good 3 point shooter, if you have even just a little space its worth the shot. I always run the All Plays playbook, in-game I typically will run a lot of Pick-N-Roll and Quick Post up plays, once my center gets hot enough they will start sending help defenders and I will kick out to the open guy. if you have a 3 point shooter in the corner, you can get a quick post up in front of it and back down the defender to the point where the corner defender will come help this will leave him wide open. you can typically do this at any spot on the floor my favorite is just the corner. One of my favorite plays is Double Cross 2, you can either take the first shot after the pass drive past the screen take the layup or have the other wing player open on the 3 aswell.

@@yerpmansports ok cool thanks so much I’m still fairly new to the game so its like my offense is just passing around until the shot clock winds down. Also do you have any game sliders that you recommend?

i don’t play on any sliders atm i do always run off 5 second closely guarded.. you use the buttons to do dribble moves and such i’ve found that if your on a fast break and running towards the corner if you press B for a dribble move you typically will go right past the guy for a easy layup. that’s my go to when i need quick points. Big men and Layups are very overpowered in this game i would use that to your advantage as your still learning

@@yerpmansports Bet good looks

Thanks a lot man really grateful for all the support you have been giving me!

down on the d pad it will then pull up a list of plays on the right with differnet buttons to call the play

Thank you

once the interest bar reaches 100 that’s when you know they will commit if you add a WRLD player to late it’s hard to get the interest bar all the way to 100 because you can only do phone calls, i agree with the juco players they do typically come pretty easy i do sometimes have a problem that when they aren’t playing as much come their junior and senior years their player confidence is very low and often transfers out. the 5 stars are typically pretty good but 4 stars typically average out to the same overall as a high school players.

@@yerpmansports good stuff thanks for the reply!

I would suggest always putting all the 4 and 5 star or any WORLD players you like on you board at that start of the season and always give them their phone calls each week, I typically wont offer them up until the end of the season if I cant get my high school players. once you offer the scholarship you will see the interest bar go up if its not at least 90% by the last week of off season recruiting it probably wont reach 100%. I hope this is a better answer that helps!

is there a way to creat a roster on more than one team and then add those teams and rosters you made to a legacy season?

thanks man means a lot! honestly player development is kinda already set most players can only go up 2-3 per off season so based off their freshman overall you can kinda guess what they will be by their senior year. if you keep a players confidence up and/or play very well with the team throughout the season they can go up 1-2 overall over the course of the season. the best way i would say to improve players is if your team is playing very good with very few losses throughout the regular season most of your team will go up 1-2 overalls throughout the season.

theres also a training tab somewhere in development, where you can set specific players to work on specific skills for that week. it doesn't help a lot but if you want a dude to get just a bit better at something its great

Make sure too look for assistant coaches that have a high teaching and charisma rating. Charisma helps u attract recruits teaching helps the players develop.

completely agree. all stats on assistant coaches will go up over time kinda like a players rating as long as you have them working on it, and they have decent ambitions. if you do enough recruiting in one season with one coach his grade could go from C charisma to B in one season. this could be the case for any of their stats.
