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

Just being honest man- It doesn’t really matter what you think the implementation should be. I’m all for giving feedback but expecting 2K to cater to your personal interpretation of basketball just isn’t realistic.

Outside of that, The things your claiming to be impossible are being done. I’m damn near doing all of it at 7’2. I’m shooting 62% from 3. You’ve been given literal examples…You keep side stepping them to say that it’s impossible because you can’t do it….instead of looking for feedback on how to.

It doesn’t matter that you’re on Switch, Its identical to current gen on the other systems. This is online competition. A lot of players have adapted. You have to do the same. 2K isn’t going to change the game for you specifically.

but this is the last time I’ll comment on this. I just don’t like the misinformation because there are some players who want to improve and we should be sharing tips instead of calling everything broken. There is plenty to call out about this game, but this ain’t it.

So I'm side stepping the real issue and spreading misinformation?

Lol bro... I HAVE adapted. I don't take those shots anymore.

I've stated on several occasions I could agree on MOST of the changes. Better defense. The adrenaline bar. I REALLY like certain aspects of the game. I made a thread about contact alley oops, nobody cares. That was a FANTASTIC addition to the game. But... Because 2k, no one can catch them in the park because FOR THE FIRST YEAR EVER there's a timing to receive alley oops. There's timing on layups. There's timing on Dunks with the dunk meter.

They found MORE ways to implement the GREEEEEEEEEN dopamine that you get from shots.

Allllllllll of that has been side commentary for me.

My only REAL gripe is the no whites/yellows. That's misinformation?

I can counterpoint ANYTHING you say to me like I'm trash by the fact I was LVL 40 within TWO weeks of this season. I'm shooting 40 percent from deep. I win almost 70 percent of my games WITHOUT playing as a shot creator.

I was even SO convinced by YOU and this board that I spent real money on a new character!

From the DAY I bought this game I've stated no whites is CRIMINAL.

But whatever you can just ban me if I'm so toxic.

No one said anything about banning you because we have different opinions…I do want you to think on the irony of that for a second though

You tell me hitting mid range jumpers is impossible with HOF Middy Magician of all things. I post a video of a guy literally hitting them with yellows. Your response is…””Nah I can’t hit them” That’s not a counterpoint, that’s being stubborn, lol.

but it’s all good, like I said- I’m done commenting on it….

Last I checked my internet connection I tested with Ookla Speed Test is over 100mbps.

When I go to the neighborhood there is ALWAYS a slight delay and it varies. I've been able to identify the apex of my jumper. Standing jumper is too easy, but quite often I will still miss a yellow release. Sometimes I get 3 yellows in a game with takeover.


I VERY rarely make a yellow standing. I get most of my yellows if my feet aren't right on the line. I think it changes it to a Limitless shot but I'm not in the zone for Limitless to trigger.

In the same token I can do a large step back from the line and trigger an Agent 3 from the logo.

There is nothing to discuss. If we're talking BASKETBALL vs. a video game my point is indisputable.

The game has been outside-in since Steph's MVP season. I've learned what is considered "2K Ball".

Was watching a "shot creator" video earlier today trying to get pointers. He was ONLY shooting leaning 3s vs standing 3s. WHAT?

2k tutes and 2k lab have both proved Agent 3 is the PREMIERE shooting badge this year. Catch and Shoot is recommended on BRONZE.

I'm being penalized for taking smart shots. It's not a matter of if *I* cant do it as well as others. It's that the game PRIORITIZES bad ball.

Glove was designed for spammers. It literally says REDUCES THE RISK OF REACH IN FOULS. What? Have you ever had a character with 99 steal and no badge? Worthless.

Oh coaches STOPPED teaching boxing out in grade school and AAU right? There's a badge to BOX OUT.

Lol... It's insane how backwards this game is from the actual SPORT of basketball.

Gatorade boost so you can hold turbo all game. Kyrie Irving does left and right zig zag dribbles so his stamina bar doesn't drop and he can shoot a leaning 3.

Come on bro. Stop acting like this game didn't turn basketball into a Mobile Pay to Win game 10 years ago.
