Re: Anybody else played the 3 PT/Dunk contest?

3 pt contest is fine. You guys are not understanding that there is a fluidity to it and if you don't follow it, you'll find your player not responding.

Is it the best design decision? Maybe not. But, I'm perfectly fine with it because it really doesn't take much to just get into a flow.

Right Trigger. Shoot. Right Trigger. Shoot. Just keep it going.

Most player release point ARE NOT AT THE HIGHEST BUT CLOSE TO THE MIDDLE WHERE HE AIMS AT THE RIM.
Click button to pick up ball immediately after the ball release.
Keep the rhythm going.

It's amazing that when I get into the zone of pressing release button and ball button, I can close my eyes and know that ball after ball will go in, just like real nba players doing the contest.

I'm sure most people would like the same ol feel control in 2k11 but that's when I can use Shaq to win the perfect score on a 3 point contest LOL NO THANKS! Players do get tired and their rhythm get messed up, I think the 3 point contest this year is spot-on.
I read your post before posting, and it has nothing to do with what I'm saying. I read about the rhythm thing the first time I tried the mode. I understand that. Hell, I scored 20 with Westbrook of all people my 2nd time out just by keeping my shots consistent. What I'm saying is that sometimes when you press square, even if you're keeping in rhythm, the animation either doesn't play out or is very delayed for some reason. Not sure if it's just my problem, but it does keep happening.

If you control all 4 contestants, (which I did) all of the dunks go by pretty quick.
