Does 3PT% need tuning?

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

Actually what you're saying makes it not ok. 82 for his % is ok but put hotspots on top of that and now you've got a knockdown 3pt shooter. Still saying "82" by itself means nothing. 82 within the context of NBA2K12 for Ron Artest with the slider is sky high. 82 would be ok if this were one of the last 3 games, but in this game Ron should either be 69-71, or the slider needs to take a hit about 3points.

Yeah I can agree with that but people are saying it like his rating doesn't justify it. If that was the case everyone could have came in here and said Luol Deng 81 3pt 34.5% 3pt shooter, I guess you can name any random player because they all are over rated at this point. Another name that came up was Richard Jefferson a 90 3pt, how could he be a 90? Looking at his stats he was a 44% 3pt shooter last year shooting close to 4 attempts a game. Some people are just suprised at who is good or who was good last year at three point shooting. Compared to everyone else from a rating standpoint I say he does derserves the rating compared to where everyone else is. I think what 2K should do is tweak the sliders to something lower or reset what the 50 for 3pt means the same for mid range as well. I don't see 2K touching the ratings because it impacts people who have started online associations, my player seasons, regular associations etc and that would mean everyone ratings would need to be lowered.

Players and Team 3 point tendencies set too high, some players 3 point attributes set to high. Fix this 2K problem solved.

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

Just played a game (Myplayer) where the opposing team had 81 field goal attempts, 41 of them were 3s.

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

Have anybody else tried turning the take 3pt shot tendency to zero in the game slider and minimizing the 3pt shot in coaches profile? I ran a cpu/cpu knicks vs magic game. knicks have a 95 3pt shot in coach profile and magic have 99 on the slide. halfway through the 1st quarter, magic shot 6 3's and knicks shot 5. so i re-edited both coaches 3pt to zero along with the 3pt shot tendency at zero. i replayed them and so far the only 3 that has been taken is by the magic in the whole game.

Coach Profile tendencies work very well. Most of them have an immediate impact within the game.

Yeah, I already know that. But after doing some research, I'm starting to think only certain teams needs the tone down only. Average 3pt attempts are about 13-18 with an average, give or take. But teams like Warriors, Nuggets, etc, can chuck up about 30 easy. I've already seen the Warriors made 15/27 3's in one game against the thunder, but that's an high octane spread team as well. So maybe there's a more realistic and appropriate number than the default suggestion.

The Warriors did hit 21 of 35 and the magic 15 of 32 in 5 quarters in a record setting game this season. It must have looked like CPU cheesing, but then again, it was a record setting game and that shouldn't be happening day in and day out.

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

I been playing a lot on Pro/Default...

Although the scores are very lifelike, not crazy high like 135-121... I been getting scores like 90-83, 101-80, 110-102...

Three Point shot (and maybe Mid Range) need tuning. Captain Jack on the Bucks was a beast from beyond the arc in one game I played. He would keep nailing 3s, I could've sworn he was rated 90 in 3PT - but he was only 80! The game ended 110-102, but still - Captain Jack! Haha, I adjusted sliders to 47 for 3PT (might do so for Mid Range but I see misses by players who are supposed to miss)

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

In my player mode it definitely does! other modes can be adjusted with sliders, but My Player is unplayable because of this LITERALLY, i have hung it up midway through my second season in My Player because of the ridiculous 3 point shooting and my team never playing any defense, also absolutely horrible trade logic... so I'm sitting waiting on some kind of patch....

I have played for a whole season and a half I have never had an opposing team shoot less than 45% from 3 point land, typically they go between 50% and 60%, who the hell coded this part of the game, he needs to watch an NBA game!
Take a look at the picture below, there's an example of a typical night against an opposing team in My Player, keep in mind this is only through 3 QUARTERS OF PLAY, STILL THE 4TH LEFT TO GO!!! almost every single one of these shots were contested well, only 2 maybe 3 were wide open... check out their field goals as well, and this was a game where i had KOBE @ SG, ARTEST @ SF, ODOM @ PF, and Bynum @ C, so you're telling me probably the best defensive line up in the NBA got schooled by a bunch of misfits (except Landry Fields, he's a standup guy, went to Stanford I believe)

[Se7enth_Sinn]

This has to be fixed no question... I play 9 min quarters in My Player and I lost 4-0 to the Magic in the first round because they shot 55-60 3s per game and a 60% clip. that's insane and should be fixed.

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

Ppl have spoken. When are these changes goin to b put in affect?? Do we seriously have to wait till november/dec for a patch to fix the sliders???

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

My gripe is to many players have 3pts icon's, and 50-3pt sliders for Sim... Plz fix 2k... Duces

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

Wait.....2k12 have issue's?? Say it ain't so

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

I'm gonna have to jump on board with the people hoping for change. The 3 point game is a bail out in this game. If you're a decent at best shooter in this game and you're wide open you don't miss...and we all know that's just not the case in real life.

Re: Does 3PT% need tuning?

@ Talent

The sad part is that u don't have to be open to hit the 3. I've played somebody online and they had the grizzlies. Boy oh boy was every three dropping and the bad thing is that they was all contested and it wasn't even Rudy gay. I almost broke my controller.
