Why is shooting speed different in My Career and Park/Rec??

[ImInThis]

Is it just me? It's fustrating because I can't get used to the shooting speed. I have HOF Quick Draw equipped, but across My Career & Rec/Park/Pro Am it's slower. I've tried practicing in My Court but tbag doesn't matter because again, in Rec it's slower.

When I play My Career it feels perfect and I know when to release. Rec is a different story as I get slightly early, it sucks

most likely has to do with the servers.
lil bit of lag.

Best place to practice is in the Team Pro-am gym. Just create a base team and go into the practice gym next to the boost shop.

The servers constantly fluctuate making it frustrating to maintain consistency.

#1.Servers
#2. different sliders in rec, different sliders in pro am, different sliders for park, different sliders for my career.

The truth is this. because we know #2 is true. it means that 2k is not about a more realistic or sim like game. they are more going towards a game that does things for you or against you. meaning even though you're playing my career where you should be able to control 100% of what you do. thats not the case. 2k controls a lot of what you do or dont do.

if this game was built to be a sim experience. they would be no change in sliders from rec to pro am. i'll let park slide.

What is the difference is a local GYM REc center and the nba or even the Gleague? Competition level. there are more athletic guys in the g league than your local rec league. the guys are usually taller as well.and last but not least, they are more skilled in the gleague than they are in your local rec gym.

Thats not what 2k does. 2k allows anyone with any rating to come in either. strike 1.
then 2k changes up the sliders for each mode. strike 2.
strike 3 is that 2k thingks this is a good idea. its not.

Rec could start with a shootaround, but then 2k would have to admit this problem exists.

I play online because I enjoy playing with others and just being a role player on offense is good enough for me.

Going 1 for 5 on wide open jumpshots ruins that enjoyment completely. In that same game I was told "you are our best scorer". It doesn't matter if I can easily breakdown the defense and make an open shot for me or another guy spacing the floor properly, when I can't hit anything open without greening it.

Due to this some people online play defense like my team's 1-3 are all ben simmons...That is my biggest issue with the shooting latency. It allows idiots to win with cheese defense.


Granted I have a coax internet connection in an apartment. I have had games where I go 9/10 and green half of them. All that does is make me more upset as a role player to know its an issue..

Re: Why is shooting speed different in My Career and Park/Rec??

I don't know what is up with me, I play NBA games go 70% from 3 , if I play a rec game I can count on both hands how many times I hit a 3 in rec games. I am probably 8 for 400 in the rec . I just can't shoot with a 99% shot on my build . This frustrates me cause I see people who don't miss n I can't figure out what I am doing wrong? I have to just slash cause all I hear is how I can't shoot ,but idk what to do cause I can not figure it out. I played games when my whole team quit n I stay on keep getting the ball to try n get the timing down and still NO HOPE...

Re: Why is shooting speed different in My Career and Park/Rec??

Miss my first 3 so defender plays off me. I play good D on him and get my takeover almost full. Call for the ball in the corner, he closes out hard, I run away from the baseline and take a wide open pull up midrange driving to my left hand. HOF Middie Magician, over a 90 rated midrange, 0% covered. Slightly Late.

Bro... This isn't Dark Souls. Making shooting more "difficult" isn't how you balance the game. Right now you can make a 90 rated dunker, a 90 rated shooter from 3 AND have dribbles and defense on the same build AND you can make him up to 6'10!

So everyone is on these giant characters on the park. Dribbling, shooting 3s and dunking on the team.


Meanwhile I see guys fading out of bounds for 3 or crossing someone up until they green because Agent 3s is the best badge in the game.

So the game is "more realistic" or at least "harder" but guys are 360 shooting 3s. Ok.

And it's not like it's HARD to shoot greens. I'm almost 42 percent in the park. I did that in 2 weeks going from 13 percent. So I've already adapted.

Problem is there's no variety in the game at all.

Centers and PFs can dribble you out your gym shoes and dunk on you and light you up from deep but I can't make a turnaround fade from 17 feet.

Genius.

Giannis had 2 bad games from the free throw line in a row. Wants to make 10 free throws before he leaves the court. Montrezl Harrell and the arena staff wouldn't let the guy shoot his freethrows.

Obv I'm not an NBA player. But quite literally the only way to make this apply to 2k is I feel like I can work on my shot all I want in MyCourt and Practice Gym. But when I go to play in a game Online the basket is moving side to side. I get a stiff breeze so my release is slightly late. The gravitational pull of Venus tilted my controller slightly so I didn't green.

I get that players have bad games.

Hell the other night I went on a 9 game winning streak in the park. Only to have a game where we all went 3-17. Missing dunks, missinf wide open.

It's a cliche but "moving the goal post" is quite literally a FEATURE this year.

If everyone else is hitting them, What are they doing that you’re not?

Leaning 3s apply a different badge.

Idk why Agent 3s triggers more than Middie Magician.

On my shooter I can step back 3 with right stick to a standing shot but if I Luka snatchback into the corner I brick.

Explain to me why those are 2 different shots?

I know. Agent 3 doesn’t change timing though, it just widens the 3 window.

In general, Shots off the dribble are sped up….that’s why the snatch back is faster. The step back move considers you back in a neutral position.

This is how things are this year.

Bro... It's so much simpler.

Tell me why if I'm stationary sitting in the corner when I receive the pass is ANY different than coming off a screen and catching and firing in motion?

Klay don't care when he gets the ball, stationary or in the move he's going to square his shoulders and give it the exact same technique as every other shot.

They speed up your releases when a defender closes out. Why? The idea is I want to shoot like I normally shoot regardless of the defender. I want to use the same follow thru as shooting a freethrow.

Why is Curry so good? Because he's engraved his shot form into his brain and can then use that exact motion under every circumstance.

Sure he'll put too much spin on certain shots and he'll miss. I'd LOVE to get to decide which KIND of shot I want again. Do I try the off the glass? Should I pull back on the stick to get more space?

I'd love to concentrate on how my defender is playing me than have to decide what's the highest probability shot.

Of course I'm only catch and shoot now. I'm not confident enough to take 5 leaners in a park game, regardless if I make 3/5, I missed the first 2 so I'm not going to attempt anymore.

It's not about what is. What it SHOULD BE is my point.

Duncan Robinson can't stay on the floor because he can't defend. Not because he can't shoot.

"Shooters" the buddy hields, JJ Reddicks. They are great catch and shoot players. But you don't shoot 40 percent on only clean looks. Wide open they'd shoot 70 percent from deep

Its the coming off the screen I got 1.5 second to make a decision.. off the bounce or catch and fire you HAVE to do both to be successful in the league.

Why do we still have PG/SG/SF/PF/C in NBA 2k at all still?

People only make SF for Park or PFs that can dribble. I can't be 6'11 like Giannis but I can be 6'8 and do EVERYTHING.

The Sport of basketball has evolved beyond 2ks implementation. Period.

Re: Why is shooting speed different in My Career and Park/Rec??

Lol every other year I've complained about finishing. This year I'm complaining about shooting and people still think I'm crazy.


THIS GAME DOES NOT MIRROR THE GAME I WATCH ON TV. HASNT MIRRORED THE NBA SINCE I CAN REMEMBER. BUT I STILL PLAY CUZ UTS ALL I GOT.
