Re: 2K17 Shooting

I get where you're coming from. But If you're playing someone who views the game the same way you do this shouldn't be an issue. Dealing with the win at all cost types online is a different deal all together. I'm looking at this from a sim head v sim head pov. If all the two guys lack in common is one likes shooting with the button and one likes shooting with the stick, boosts shouldn't be on the table.

Can't agree more with that last line. Stick skills, IMO, should solely be based off of being able to outplay your opponent with on-ball maneuvers and specialty shots. Giving a bonus to the basic jumpshot over the button users (something I've used on basketball games since well before 2k was even thought of) seems kinda screwed up, IMO.

But hey, not in my hands. I'll probably still use the button, and continue to save the stick for specialty shots.

Gonna be funny being on the mic, though:

"I missed a green release with the shot stick perfectly aimed! WTF 2K!!"

Re: 2K17 Shooting

You all know how 'accurate' directional passing is, correct? Oh, just wait until you see how 'accurate' directional shooting is. Think about that for a second, let it sink in.

And nobody has thought of how that'll affect pull-up jumpers.

Oh, this is gonna be fun, lol

Risk vs Reward?

I just don't see the value in using the stick if I can get greens with the face button esp. using a custom jumper

Re: 2K17 Shooting

This Thread has turned into a bunch of speculation and resistance LOL older people don't care about stick skills when it's obviously a part of the game especially with the new dribble mechanics starting and younger people are defending the changes. Bottom line it doesn't matter everyone will assimilate to the new changes
