OK, seriously: Why are there no fouls on 3 pointers?

This has got to be the most glaring gameplay omission in the 2K series. I've been playing since 2K11, I can't remember a single time that a player was fouled on a 3 point shot. Jumpshots in general require considerable slider tweaking to get fouls called on them at all. 3 point shots never result in either 3 free throws or potential 4 point plays. This year, it's even more glaring than its always been because there have been a number of times when a shooter is clearly fouled on a 3 point attempt, but nothing is called. It seems to me that they've modeled in actual fouling on those shots; so where are the foul calls?

Fouls calls are poor overall in this game. There's a moderately sized thread on the issue. It's supposedly being addressed in an upcoming patch.

Wish they would bring back the ability to draw fouls on jumpshots like in 2K11. People said it was an exploit, but in any game mode you play with users people fly around/into/on top of you with little to no repercussions. The ability to manually draw fouls on jumpers should be brought back.

Agreed. It's frustrating when the defender fall into you when you are pumpfaking but you can't shoot into him. Bring it back 2K.

I actually get called for fouls on jump shooters.

I've gotten a foul call on a 3 pointer before... once... in 2k14. So it does exist and is possible.

(I didn't make the shot)

I've been fouled on plenty of 3's and vice versa especially in last years game but I use my own custom sliders for contact and fouls.

I converted a 4 point play yesterday with Jordan Crawford. First one I have seen in 2k15 and I was pretty stoked that it happened with J.Crawford.
