"Random outcome" random as in an attribute? Real Shooting % is in the game for a reason...as in obviously there is a certain crowd of people who would rather the attributes and NOT a mini-game bar determine whether or not you make or miss. Hence the reason 2K should have given us the OPTION.

It's not the meter that does that it's the fact that there is a timing on the layups. Meter is just there to make it more accessible.

I wish you can remove it as well. Should be optional.

If I understand the lay up meter correct, isn't it only helping you if you get it green? Meaning even if you mistime it you're not penalized it just goes in based on your lay up rating. Can anyone confirm.

Nope pretty sure you are penalized for bad shots....and for the record before anyone comes at me for not being "constructive" Im not saying the meter is good or bad I'm saying we should have had the choice.

Real Shooting % shouldn't even be a thing. It's should relate to the attribute. The fact there are two different settings is actually poor game design and undermines their shooting ratings which they have in place. So yes, just pressing a button with Real Shooting% is a random outcome. It's not using the ratings they have given each player.

That's what they said leading up to the games release.
