ProAm/JRC/Park Patch Thread

Re: ProAm/JRC/Park Patch Thread

I been gone, mostly just playing the game lol but..my takeaways are mostly the same.

IF you put in the time, a pure sharp is absolutely OP. Full disclaimer I made one..just to test, and yes, it's almost unfair.

I only have silver catch and shoot, limitless, and bronze deadeye...a 93 rated 3 tho, and I'm hitting like 60, 70 % of my threes. I don't even wanna think if this was my main build and these badges were gold or even hof.

Plus takeover? Nah, that's insane. Pull from half court and green, fading threes in someone's face ..

Tone it down.

Secondly, the steals. Okay, they're not as bad as when the game started, but they're still bad in my opinion. You learn to pass more, when to pass before the steal spam starts, when not to pass, and how to protect the ball. In a sense it makes you a better player..but at the same time I don't believe it's just balanced right.

My last issue I've been noticing is the screens. Now I'd like input on this one.

Is it a problem to you all as well? Mainly in park, because you have less people on the court therefore less help on defense, but I feel like the screen spamming is back as well.

Lots of screens where my player is being held and almost dragged away out of the play itself...where it's practically impossible to regain control on the play defensively.

Is it because my guys only 180? Or is it happening to heavier guys also?

Pure sharps are definitely as OP as ever. My teammate finally got his badges and uh......................yeah

games with 8-10 threes are a regular occurrence, and many of those makes are contested. A lot of it is that he shoots so quickly that his opponent doesn't have time to get a hand up, and while I do believe in needing a hand up, it almost seems too......unfair

Yes that's what I noticed too..

It don't seem to matter about contests, if the defender isn't there once the shot animation begins it doesn't seem to change anything.

Right, I notice all they try and do now is run off of teammates..like behind or thru traffic...lots of collisions and getting stuck defensively

that’s basically what our sharp does. run around the top of the key in a semi circle until his guy loses him

and then he can pretty much pull up from anywhere off my passes

we benefit from it and even I can acknowledge its trash basketball, lol

Re: ProAm/JRC/Park Patch Thread

JRC = Step backwards. What was 2K thinking. Shooting around > Waiting in locker room with 2 other dude, unable to backout til like 5min in. Do they process these things or just blindly do what a subset of the community says "bring back JRC!". Do they not think about the user experience at all. Like where is the person that says "hey this might not be such a good idea".

Re: ProAm/JRC/Park Patch Thread

JRC definitely needs a nice lil patch. The matchmaking is terrible right now. We had 3 PG's on our team 95% of the games we played last night. SMH

Re: ProAm/JRC/Park Patch Thread

The 3 point shooting is even worse this year than the previous 2 years, I just don't understand why they wont tone it down? Take a look at the pro-am stats, the leaders are making 10-12 threes a game, so a game half as long as an NBA game results in 3x what the NBA leaders make, insane.

Cause sharpshooters are the easiest build to use, easiest to level up and always get the most overpowered offensive badges ever year. Its an archetype that encourages you to jack up shots without any skill or strategy.

Look at this badge combo. if you know how to press the shoot button, you can score 30.

HOF catch and shoot
HOF corner specialist
HOF deep range deadeye
HOF limitless range

Its absolutely ridiculous no other build in the game even comes close to that kind of badge combo for their archetype. Every time you shoot you are probably activating atleast two of those badges.

if they were to tone down the percentages on open looks it would be hell on twitter. people want to green every single open look they get.

They've painted themselves into a corner then, Zach and Mike said the shooting would be more difficult prior to launch, and it's literally been the opposite. In a few weeks we're going to see nothing but sharp shooter teams as people dump their current players to make sharps and the gameplay will be stale.

Yup, which is why they need to nerf deep range + limitless

Definitely the most casual build in the game and it’s not even close .
