For sake of Videogame balance, lower layups across the board

Re: For sake of Videogame balance, lower layups across the board

I was simply stating the midrange game is not a major part of the NBA in recent years. I never said that it was properly represented in Live. Those stats were the teams that take the most midrange shots in the league. The purpose is to show the percentage of midrange shots taken. The Knicks take 41% of their shots from midrange and they take the most in the league. If I was trying to prove my point, wouldn't I show the 5 teams who take the least midrange shots. I don't get your logic. It's all good!!!

Yes this must be adjusted.... I'm doing a write-up on what needs to be improved for 16. I'll post here once its finished.

Working on a fix now to lower the chances of contested layups. Running simulations every day. I'm pushing hard to get it to you guys as soon as I can.

is it a way you could make the cpu take more pull up mid range jumpers and stepbacks? it rare that that the cpu
takes these shots and i would like to see more of them when i play against
guys like kyrie, lebron, melo and durant.

I hope they can fix this in this years game, if not, I'm not taking any chances with buying 16...there's no reason for them to leave a game basically broken. It was possible to make them before they patched the game...they can definitely adjust it again.

Watching the Wizards-Blazers game the other night and Gortat and Nene both were knocking down midrange jumpers left and right...there is no reason that open and some of the guarded shots shouldn't be makable with the occasional contested shots falling as well.

Is there a time frame for this to be completed?

Just had a game vs. the Raptors where literally all their attempts were inside the paint or 3 pointers.....it's crazy man, lol

If they tweak the inside success I don't know how the CPU is going to score....

Unfortunately 95% of the games against the CPU are like this. But since midrange jumpers are as successful as full court shot attempts I can see why the CPU doesn't take any.

I've all but given up on the midrange jumper...wide open, even with 85+ rated shooters...they can't knock down easy 7-10 footers...even when you find the perfect spot which would be a smart shot, they just won't fall...ever.

I don't know what EA is waiting for...the midrange game has basically been broken since they patched the game.

Last night I switched both shooting and free throw's to just ratings in my Knicks Dynasty,and I saw mid range shots fall, even pull up jumpers by Melo and Hardaway. But the back to the basket cheese was unbearable.

Free throw attempts, that is about it.

I hope this gets fixed soon. I'm trying to do the Cavs 3 point game against the Hawks and it ain't happenin', lol. Just brick after brick.

Re: For sake of Videogame balance, lower layups across the board

I haven't played in a long time. I stopped playing because I was tired of these issues. I missed the feel of nba live though.

Tried it again and it was terrible... Too much cheese. I was in the game the entire time but couldn't take it. I quit after a few minutes. I normally only play online. Would play other modes if they weren't broken.

I'm not playing again until they patch this

Re: For sake of Videogame balance, lower layups across the board

Yeah, haven't touched this in ages. Have no idea what EA is waiting for but this is on the shelf until they fix it or sold if they don't.

Re: For sake of Videogame balance, lower layups across the board

The problem is that the people dont play basketball, they play a videogame. In online they onli go run coast to coast, they no use a playbook. They run all time, they use cheese mode. I hate it, i love the basketball and i play Dynasty mode only because the CPU play better that the people online.

If you love basketball add me on psn (ID: Rukistyle) I love to play 12 minute and superstar difficult. I play simulation.

Is this problem only online? I'm considering buying this while it's on sale but not if this is offline as well.
