    Well its within the good-great area. Another reason why shot stick timing won't give you 100% FG percentage.

      but people shouldnt be relying on predetermined shot success offered by the CPU with real FG%. if i miss because i released late then so be it but if i hit even though i released horribly then i am handicapped

          I believe that is up to the gamer to decide.

          Personally, I don't use real FG% because I find it to be too difficult. I am consistently in the 35% area of shooting. When I bump to Shot Stick, I shoot 45%.

          Not sure why this is exactly when some people shoot too well using real FG%, but perhaps it is style of game.
          "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

            It might be.... Because from my times using it. I've always found that I shot a lower percentage. I also think some people haven't even tired it. And are just talking....

            And to the guys who posted before this. Maybe I was a little over the top when I said 100%. But when you get a good release. You get a rating boost. The example I keep using over and over. Rondo... will most likely hit a 3 if you leave him wide open and the user gets a good release. But with real player...you would threat him like Shaq out there.

              THIS is what im talking about.....when i turned RFG% i was hitting everything without even trying

                Ive tried it soon as i heard about it...couldnt hit a 3 to save my life with Kobe on HOF because his shot realease you have to Hold like forever . Soon as i turned RFG% on i didnt even have to try they just were going in with little effort

                  exactly. i had been using SHOT STICK timing since release and it just to dominant. ratings dont even matter to a point.

                  like Jeebs said, once u get a players release down and he has a decent rating then thats it. they can make damn near anything. anyone with thier Mid or 3PT rating in the upper 60's and above can become Ray Allen if u learn thier release. then things got down right ridiculous........

                  Shaq hit a 16ft jumper

                  Nenad Kristic became Durants sidekick avg 18-20 points per game.

                  Hasheem Thabeet became a mid-range threat

                  Zach Randolph became unstoppable

                  AND.......

                  O.J. Mayo became Kobe Bryant inside the arc and Dale Ellis behind it!

                  just like Jeebs i have friends who come over and play with me and my brother. he doesnt have time to sit here learn everyone's release on the Nuggets or the Magic. he just wants to play and have fun with us.

                  people have lives man. thats great thing about this game. the casuals can have fun and the game is deep enough for the hardcore. devs purposely make the games this way for different people to have fun. so when my friends come by we both can have a good time with the game.

                  Man there are no flashers... now what are we going to do for vd
                  I'm sure there's plenty of prostitutes you could pay if you really want vd.
                  yea but will they take psn cards

                    i dont know...i have never downloaded any updates ...Real FG % i dont miss. at all so i guess its just the opposite...and no one was downing the fact that people dont have time to learn the game...i agreed RFG% is very newb friendly

                      What style do you play? On sim style with Real FG % on im having huge difficulities shooting over 40% no matter what team i control. Maybe i'm not good at the game but after i tested real fg% in 3 point shootout i think real fg%+sim style doesnt work well.

                        i use what came straight out the box...HOF default

                        When i play on SIM i can shut the CPU down wayyyyy to easily they miss everything.

                        Now i know people will say default is not the way to go but the CPU makes some CRAZY stuff on HOF default. Presents far more of a challenge then when its on sim

                          I like learning and perfecting releases so I'm a shoot button/shot stick guy. I just switched my free throws over to Real Player % though and it's feeling rather foreign and uncomfortable. I figured it was for the best though because I had mastered Ben Wallace's free throw routine. I decided it was time to even things up a little with the opposition via free throws.

                            Last night I turn turned it back to shot timing. And had my first CPU blowout in about a month (Also Rondo hit 2 three pointers the CPU).... My friend and I played a game. We scored 90 points in a HOF default game 5 minute game. I was pretty shocked. It was actually an NBA today game. Our game was exactly like the actually Laker - Denver game.

                              Yea my friends and I have come to the point that we don't want to see users shooting with Shaq and Rondo 80+ from the line.

                                For free throws, why not just up the FT difficulty?
