Err, is there something wrong with 3pt shooting?

[trandoanhung1991]

So ummm WTF is going on with 3pt shooting? Here's my stats:



I'm taking wide open, A- 3pt attempts and this is the result:

Meanwhile, on the CPU side, also wide open shots:






WTF? Those 3 have less than 75 3pt ratings, and yet they make a total of 6-7 from deep. Meanwhile I, with 95 rating, make 2-8 of my open shots?

Just an FYI, Curry is averaging 46% from deep.
This doesn't happen in just 1 game either, this has been going on for multiple games now.

EDIT:
After a few games with a different shooting animation, my shot percentage went up to where I expect it to be given my ratings.

So what happened was that the shot animation I chose before had a tendency to cause me to step on the line and do a very long 2 instead of a 3, which seems to have terrible percentage compared to either a normal long 2 or a 3. That's probably what caused my percentage to drop so low.

So 1 game sample size?

What's your career 3pt percentage?

Re: Err, is there something wrong with 3pt shooting?

Sample size + how were they being defended + some nights you just miss shots it happens

30% this year.

As for defense, I already said they were wide open A- shots. All 8 of them, in this match. And they're corner 3s, too.

Funny you show Darrell Arthur.... I was playing All Star Team Up and I subbed him in a game and lit it up. I ended the game with 17 points, 5/5 from 3PT.

The new rules of shooting don't seem to apply to the CPU, they still making jumpers like it's 2k15.

Err, is there something wrong with 3pt shooting?

are u playing HOF? i am struggling with KD's perimeter shooting at HOF simulation sliders. novak, morrow and singler can shoot better. my stats is similar to wat u show eg 2 for 8!

i understand the window period to control the shot release is shorter as the level goes higher. it cant be i can shoot the others better than KD. he has 86 in standing 3. and i practise the shooting before game.

70 rating seems to indicate <30% from 3pt. 75 is around 30%.

And yet those players the CPU control makes 6/7 3pt shots. How the heck is that not broken?

Re: Err, is there something wrong with 3pt shooting?

Post videos. We see nothing but stats.

We don't know WHAT type of shots you are taking.
We don't know if you are really OPEN.
We don't know the momentum of the game.
We don't know the fatigue of your players

We need more info before we side with you

Post videos. It is 2015 man

You're playing on hall of fame. This is what happens on the hall of fame difficulty level.

People on OS have said it, the developers of the game have said the AI gets an unfair advantage on hall of fame.

If this is the mode you play on, adjust sliders or deal with the unfair advantage, because that's what the level was designed to do. If you can't understand that and think the game is broken because of it, there's nothing else to tell you then

The admins of this site need to ban the word broken. It's getting tossed around when talking about EVERYTHING. Now, because the hardest difficulty in the game is actually hard, the game is broken?! Give me a break with this **** it's really getting old

Re: Err, is there something wrong with 3pt shooting?

This is at least the 3rd or 4th thread I've seen on this forum where ppl complained about shooting, and 3pt. Shooting in general. I agree with the OP. Unlike some have requested, I don't need to see any videos to know it's broken. I already experienced exactly what he's talking about. I play with the Warriors and Curry and Klay misses easy open 3s a little bit to often for my taste. At this point I've come to accept it. 2k can claim sim this and sim that all that want, but IMO this game is not even remotely close to sim basketball. It's a video game and I look at it as such.

I think most of people's problems with 3 point shooting comes down to the users skill with a particular players shot really.

For me, on the Warriors I feel pretty confident with Klay, Iggy and Barnes. Not so much with Steph and Draymond. And it reflects that way in my percentages.

On the Spurs, I'm money with Parker, Diaw and Aldridge from deep. Awful with pretty much everyone else.

The current Laker team I cant hit with anyone. Even Kobe. But I just played someone last night who was knocking down threes with Kobe with no problems at all.

I tried the classic 2000 Lakers and was stroking with Isiah Rider. I even hit the only two attempts I had with Tyronne Lue. But I went 0-4 with Rick Fox on WIDE open attempts.

So I think it just boils down to getting better with our timing from certain shooters that we struggle with.

I think it's a problem within the game. Way to many ppl have complained about this to chalk it up to just a lack of skills. It's not just coming from this forum, but from other communities as well.

This is why you should track.

This is why you need video evidence. When we believe something is happening, we tend to over exaggerate how often it happens.

If you record yourself playing, you can actually chart the % of shots made when "wide open."

Look at that over a span of gameS and then compare vs the real world.

Then you bring your argument to the table.

So providing evidence is important
