I think pure sharps arent shooting a high enough percentage. Especially when open. Pure sharps should be shooting 100% when open. Thats what sharps do irl. Widen the skill gap bros

i dont see how there's any skill in looking at a shot meter. ****s even worse when they gave a big boost to open shots cause of all the complaining when people miss open looks.

you guys still dont understand how it SHOULD work. 2k has chosen the wrong way to design shooting from the start if they want it to be more realistic.

Why choose manual input(shot release timing)? There needs to be more mechanics put into shooting. so that manual timing release, etc is based on user input and not some 2k19 controlled percentages.

instead of just shot timing and thats it. it should be shot balance. you should have to balance yourself in the air while shooting just like real life. and maybe one other thing. now when a defender jumps on you to block your jumper you cant just press one button and green it. you have to press that button to release it on time as well as straighten up in mid air to help make the shot. those 2 things alone with a defender on you is enough to bother your shot.

people in real life miss only because they are no longer shooting and releasing the shot as they did when they made it.something is off even if its slightly offf.

That's a bit steep for a realism request.

We do have to get our feet set. It's abundantly clear that Takeover has inflated percentages as well as the ability for Stretches to have an incredibly OP vantage point that allows them to shoot over your hand and still be considered open to wide-open.

We don't need a balancing in air mechanic.

i thought these are professional basketball players..the elite of the elite when it comes to shooting if were talking about sharps. I guy like Klay thompson only needs a glance at the rim and hes good that comes from preparation and concentration. Them adjusting their shot to get over a defender or alter their release cause of the situation you described is nothing to them cause of all the practise they put in. we're controlling pro's.

Well, they did try aiming with the shot stick in NBA 2K17. Now, this might be the fault of my community (PNO players), but it was patched out at a later time.

everything went backboard for me when they had that option. Like i said shooting is all preparation guys like klay/steph put in the work. Its all muscle memory for them so when im playing 2k why am i aiming with elite shooters?

You're not aiming though...you're just pressing a button.....

That right stick aiming stuff from 2K17 was too easy to get centered and provided too much of a make bonus. They had to take it out of the game because of how easy shooting was with it turned on.

But there should be more emphasis on being set and balanced when the shot is released. Too many sharps making buckets off the dribble. Too many Steph Currys, not enough slow, spot up set shooters. If someone is gonna be a godlike shooter, they need to be super unathletic Brian Scalabrine type players.

The 3s are ridiculous yes but what about them alley oops ?? Is there any anination that can break up an alley oop ??? I am looking at the alley oop develop and i try swatting it blocking it but somehow my defender turns in this heavy slow stupid human being not able to interfere whatsoever....where is the skill gap ?? Some people see alleys coming and want to react why nerf them ?

**jyoung** · 01-10-2019, 03:10 PM

You have to hit the steal button to break up alley oops, not the block button.

Simply blocking off the running path of the ooper with your body or having someone with the rim protector badge hanging around the rim will also cause them to miss.

They are actually balanced pretty well this year. My only complaint with alley oops is that they produce too many layup animations. 95% of the time they should result in dunk animations, but it's more like 55% of the time in 2K19.

The skill gap is in the knowing how to defend it lol. What jyoung said. Best way to defend it is to see/anticipate it coming and get in the path of the ooper so he can't gain momentum.

Thats what i said i try swatting first but somehow the players on the defensive end of the alley oop turn heavy and slow in regard to the overpowered alley oop animation. Thanks for the response

While you propose for more emphasis on balance and getting set before release: in your mind, how do you emphasize this effect more?

An actual leaning 3 will indeed have a lower chance of going in than a shot you take after setting your feet and squaring up into your standard jumper.

Where 2k can isolate the numbers better is to have a dribble pull-up be considered any type of shot taken after the dribble. Sharpshooters could then take a bigger rating hit on this shot and remove their difficult shots badge and reserve that for builds with Shot-Creating in the mix.

The gameplay mechanics itself don't need more emphasis on controller inputs that trigger balance though.
