Blocks are ridiculous!

Re: Blocks are ridiculous!

From the shooting percentage thread. Maybe some folks will come in off of the ledge now, and stop getting their Hamlet on.

Well I hope it works out. But there is a history of patches completely nerfing stuff.

I don't know, there is an average of 7-8 blocks per game.

It is too much for a 60 point game.

Sometimes it seems that an offensive player is waiting to be blocked when trying to shot under the basket wide open or on a fast break.

Another thing that creates this issue is the fact that a lot of times under the basket you try to do a pump fake, but the game shoots

I don't understand this logic. Ppl concerned a patch will messed the game up but if game play is already compromised, then what difference does it make.


I just ran a beautiful play online against the Kings. Had a 3 on 1 break with Laborsoa in the middle and Klay fading to the 3pt line . Well the guy controls Rondo and follows Klay out to the 3pt line, but when he see's I'm going all the way with Laborsoa, he turbo back and recovers to block my lay up attempt. Now how you play two guys at once is beyond me.

Because it could mess things up worse, and you and others would be here screaming to high heaven if you had DeAndre in good position and watched as balls morph through his hands, because Too Many Blocks

Well the opposite is just as bad tho. If U have two extremes, do u think one extreme is better than the other?

What people are saying is that they'd rather deal with the blocks as is, than to go back to balls phasing completely through limbs due to 'ratings.' Which also gives the game another tool to screw users when it feels like it wants a particular event to play out.

I'll trust in Mike....he said all he's doing is toning down non shot blockers...

and while the people worried about over nerfing can calm a bit....

Hopefully some of these over exaggerated stories to get the point across can die down a bit as well...it's not even necessary lol

Something tells me this is going to include almost all guards. If it goes like I think it will, steal spamming on drives and in the paint is about to double.

Re: Blocks are ridiculous!

I'd rather those guards TRY for the steals instead of the blocks really.

Say that in Pro Am, where all 5 players have gold Pick Pocket. Have fun getting ripped out of your dunk/layup animations, lol.

If it'll be a problem then, it would already be a problem now.

If the only reason that's not happening already is because guard blocks are overpowered, then guard blocks are REALLY overpowered.

And this is where ppl are confused. Eventually ppl will feel the same about the extreme blocking. Ppl are just more tolerant now because they have endured the other extreme for a longer period of time. . Bottom line, it's a problem that needs to be fixed regardless. Ppl need to stop settling.

Re: Blocks are ridiculous!

I'm sorry if I offend anyone, but any mode with User created players, is going to be ridiculous in one way or another.

[MadManCometh]

Re: Blocks are ridiculous!

And it's not just guards that are blocking dunks. It's the blocking period. Every big in the game is Mutombo. And not every big are good at blocking shots but whatever.

The problem is more than blocks. It's that slow animation process that often takes place that allows players to recover and make up a ridiculous amount of space in the first place.

Re: Blocks are ridiculous!

I just chased down blocked with muggsy bogues on the Raptors.
