    LITERALLY Every Made Shot Is a Swish

    I'm not sure if this has been brought up in other threads, but I thought for sure it needs its own thread.

    I really wish I could un-notice this because swishes feel Soo good this year lol. I've only played one full 6 min quarter game and about 30+ mins of practice, but it's sure looking like literally (and I'm using the word literally to mean LITERALLY lol) every made jumpshot is a Swish.

    After my first game I went to 'Score Summary' and replayed every 'made jumpshot' and sure enough, didn't hit rim one. And even weirder, if you turn off shot timing and play w real fg% you get ZERO swishes lol.

    The game is playing amazing right now so I hope they can sort this out sooner rather than later.

    Ps. As I'm finishing up typing this I see an Update Required message in my pause screen, so fingers crossed.

    Pps. The ads on OS on mobile are getting absolutely ridiculous. I had to X out of 3 full page popup ads just to finish this thread

    On user shots I'm getting fairly good variety but the cpu shots not so much. Not every shot is a swish but it's definetly much higher than real life. Also when it's not a swish, it almost is if that makes sense. I haven't seen one rim rattle around or anything like that in about 20 mynba games.

      On HOF,I see very inconsistent shot percentage on both ends of the spectrum.

      CPU shots either go full swish or they can't put a dime in out of ten shots.Even when i purposely pull the defender and give the CPU "Kevin Durant" space to shoot.

      I think this issue needs be reviewed before calling for the nerf hammer.

        Ive seen a decent amount of variety. Def not every shot is a swish for me or the cpu in my experience.

          On launch day I thought every made shot was bank shots so I kept on looking at replays showing swish I thought my mind was Trippin 😕

            Well... you are almost right.
            Every green release is a swish, others are not

              Just played G1 of the Jordan Challenge and saw about 2 or 3 shots made that hit rim for me so I'm proven wrong but I think I know the cause. I just very rarely make shots that I don't green, and all greens are swishes, I'm pretty sure about that. Would love to see more variety on greens, but just being nitpicky I'm loving the game. Had so much fun

                I’m seeing only swishes on made jump shots from the AI on the Magic/Bird era gameplay.

                  What are your sliders?

                  This is a really annoying issue in an otherwise incredible game.

                  Hopefully it gets patched as it’s in dire need. But if it’s something hard coded we’re screwed. The cure then would be to figure out how to get cpu to make shots that aren’t only greens. Anyone know?

                    Green = Swish.
                    Not green = Miss.
                    So therefore, make = swish.

                    There is the oversimplified explanation for anyone wondering. Especially on Superstar or HoF difficulty, you basically have to green the shot in order for it to go in, and the same for the CPU (yes, the CPU is stuck on Shot Timing for god knows what reason).

                    This is also why lower difficulties can sometimes be more difficult against the CPU, because lower difficulties make the green "zone" bigger on the shot meter, meaning more mistimed shots are considered greens, therefore the CPU ends up shooting a higher percentage than on higher difficulties.

                      Can a fix be lowering the CPU’s shot timing impact slider? Or would that mean they just green more which means more swishes?

                        You can definitely make that tweak (which is what I do), and if set to 0 the AI can make even those red Early/Late mistimed shots due to the whole equation now boiling down to their shot ratings vs. the defensive coverage rating.

                        Definitely a huge improvement IMO.

                          Nice. Ok this is what I’ll be doing. Gonna have to balance lowering cpu shot success sliders with lowering their impact timing sliders. I put cpu shot success at 47 and timing impact at 20 and I saw their first “non swishes” finally. Two shots hit clanked a little bit of rim as they went in. I might try shooting success ar 40-45 for cpu and put timing impact at 0-10.

                          The constant swishes are grating. And it ruins the usually cool effect of an actual swish. When there’s a swish every play, it doesn’t feel like a swish anymore.

                            So you’re telling me Real Shooting % doesn’t have swishes? I remember this was a problem a couple years ago but I know for a fact it was not an issue last year
