Shot % Tweaks needed?

Re: Shot % Tweaks needed?

From my personally experience i still think there are too many missed wide open threes with good to great shooters. Definitely frustrating to get your shooters multiple wide open looks just to watch it brick off and rim and not even a good quality. wide open shots should definitely get a boost in % and shot quality.

Re: Shot % Tweaks needed?

more like 5% , but 1 thing at a time

I play in a Online League on HOF and it's literally a brick fest from 3. Wide open shots too. I just started leaving people wide open cause whats the worst that good happen right..?

Ya i would say a boost in wide open 3s would be really nice. I'm tired of these brickfest even with my opponent leaving my shooters wide open. its just not fun.

Re: Shot % Tweaks needed?

So at first, people wanted to turn shooting into a brick fest, now we wanna turn attacking the basket into another part of the game that requires strategy and focus? Boy, y'all won't be satisfied until people who force poor shots are shooting 10% or less online.

go to practice mode (I play on HOF) with a good shooter (let's say Parsons) and see how many wide open 3s u miss. no doubt wide open threes need a boost in quality and %.

Re: Shot % Tweaks needed?

like i played a guy in MT who left me open on the 3 point line and nothing would fall, that is annoying as ****. like i get the 3 wont fall 100% of the time. but if you going to sag off good shooters and bait them into a shot, you should be punished. thats not even the 2k player in me talking. thats the baller in me talking.

if im open and you refuse to D up. ima make you pay

I was just asking. Haven't played online HOF.

See, that's just not true at all. I move the ball a lot and get wide-open 3's but they just won't fall on a consistent basis. I also have no problems with missing layups that are heavily contested, but there are too many dunks and layups that I miss just because a defender is in the general vicinity.

I've had a lot of fun already with NBA 2K16 but there is no denying it could be a lot more fun if we could get more consistently rewarded for smart basketball. Right now the best strategy is to cheese by sprinting up the court and getting a dunk or a layup before the defense can get back.

All I'm asking for is a more realistic, rewarding experience. What's wrong with that?

Mid Range and Around the basket shots in the Park could use a reduction in my opinion, they seem to be going in at high clip even contested.

I play SS Sim. Three point percentages are perfect for good and bad shooters. My A+ rated 3 point SF in MyLeague shoots 40% + from three. Hard to hit much with bad shooters. Very realistic, very ideal. Three point shooting is perfect for SS Sim offline.

Driving layups are good too. You have to have a good rating to consistently convert layups. I can't just spam the layup button with bad players.

Face-ups... Kevin Durant... LeBron. They're not in this game. You can't just rise and elevate in this game. If you do it's an auto brick.

Shot % Tweaks needed?

In my opinion:



Contested and contact lay ups need to be lowered online\



Contested 2-5 foot jumpers should be lowered offline (the CPU abuses this)



Face up jumpers (by guys like Melo\ Durant should be raised slightly. This is a tricky one b\c I know you guys are tweaking the contested shot logic...it may solve itself after that is tweaked...



Step back jumper % could use a slight boost

Everything said here.

Everything else is fine as is.

Lower your difficulty until you master players. You aren't gonna shoot 50%or above every game. Tell the league admin to change sliders to make it easier for you guys if playing on lower difficulty isn't a option

Right. That's why wide open midranges were nerfed. Now you're talking about reducing success when attacking the basket, since shooting is so iffy. There's another topic talking about reducing floaters. I'm just waiting to see what the hell the next thing is that you guys cry about.

Cause there's a defender in their face lol. Create space after faceup then shoot. There is no "face up" jumper rating in 2k

Online Play Now mode.

Personally, I thought the release date shooting percentages were fine minus the midrange shots being overpowered. I think midrange shots could use a slight increase for open shots from the current percentage, and contact layups could use a decrease. Seems like online players are taking their highest rated layup players and attacking the basket on every possession.
