Nearly impossible to hit two straight 3's in a row

[EarvGotti]

Has anybody else experienced this? I've played about 70-80 online ranked games and I get soooooooooooooo many opportunities to hit a 2nd straight 3pt shot with a player and he ALWAYS misses.

These shots are wide open but it doesn't matter. The 2nd one always misses. I think I've only hit 2 in a row once and that was with Ray Allen. Even with two different players it is very hard to hit two 3's in a row.

This confuses me because how is a player supposed to get in a shooting rhythm if the 2nd one always misses? Usually after a made 3, the shooter gets some rhythm going and is MORE likely to hit the 2nd one.....but its never like that in 2k.

I'm beginning to think this is some kind of glitch because it happens all the time, no exaggeration. It's come to the point where I pass up on an open 3 if i just hit one the possession before....because I know its gonna miss.

Don't get me wrong....i love where the shooting is at the moment. This aspect of it just annoys me because it's coming off as a legit bug in the game because it happens so often.

Yes. Not only is it nearly impossible to hit two threes with the same guy, it's just as impossible to hit two threes in a row in general.

Yup, thats what i'm saying. It's crazy because this doesn't allow you to build momentum from 3pt shooting.

When teams go on runs in real life, two straight 3's can shift the momentum heavily to their side. But this is nearly impossible in 2k16.

I've hit two 3's in a row MAYBE twice the whole time I've played this game. It does seem fairly impossible to do

Re: Nearly impossible to hit two straight 3's in a row

This is definitely true. U can be wide open with an elite shooter and he never hits two in a row. Which is annoying because it keeps u from blowing someone out online. Its like the game won't let u and its lame. I should be able to punish a user if he's playing bad defense and the game simply will not let u. It's beyond frustrating.

Don't know about online, but offline it's certainly possible. Even in the playoffs, especially when behind.

Real talk man. Sometimes I feel like the game is programmed to always keep it close online. It's crazy.

I've had so many close games because of consecutive shots not dropping even when wide open. I don't want to have a close game every time i play someone, i want to be rewarded for playing properly.

Bro I know where you are coming from lol. Especially the comeback part but we'll talk about it on the show tonight. Hope yall call in and express your opinions..

Re: Nearly impossible to hit two straight 3's in a row

YES! I absolutely agree. I've brought this up several times here, but nobody seemed to have this problem. Seeing this thread just brought a smile to my face lol. This is the most frustrating thing about online IMO. I play perfect offense with extra passes to get a wide open look and I always miss with B+ or A- smh. And then the opponent comes and makes an early shot clock three in my face with J.R Smith. What's the point of this?

If you shoot a 3 pointer with Ray Allen... try taking a different type of shot (with another player) before attempting another 3-pointer with Ray Allen again.

Spamming consecutive 3-pointers (whether you hit them or not) is a bit cheesy.

Especially when you can get 3-point plays from GOOD ball movement & getting a foul from your opponent.

I do it all the time with Kyle Korver.

I went 3/3 with Tyreke Evans in the same quarter.

When players are hot, they're hot in this game. Use the streaks to your advantage. Maybe you're getting your shots with players that are cold/average. I know exactly what you're saying though, 90% of the time, consecutive 3's don't fall.

Is this a designed mechanic to discourage 3pt cheese? But what If i get a stop and Ray Allen ends up wide open AGAIN? It's not logical to pass up a wide open 3 with Ray Allen who just hit one the possession before. You see what I'm saying?

I understand ball movement and mixing up your shots. I do it all game. But if i get open again i shouldn't have to pass up a 3 for a different type of shot. It doesn't make basketball sense.

Re: Nearly impossible to hit two straight 3's in a row

It makes playing with certain teams very hard. I run with the Celtics and between the missed layups. Ball movement creates open looks. It hurts my soul when I run a pick and roll pass to the weak side man drive the close out and hit Crowder in the corner for a wide open 3 and its a miss. Then go on defense and k.Irving hits me with 8-9 dribble moves gets fouled/makes the shot. And I go back on offense for varied results.

I can always see where I make mistakes so it keeps me sane. But I'm tried of losing to Clevland. Lebron and Kyrie don't get tired with extremely high usuage. And if they do it doesn't seem to effect them. Why is Shumperr so f***** good in this game.


Sorry. It is hard to hit back to back with a non Elite-Elite shooter.(or iman shumpert)
