free throw difficulty

is There any way to achieve somewhat realistic percentages on free throw shooting? in our online League we are playing on superstar. with Either realft% or timing, most Teams Shoot above 90% for the season (worst Team sits at 82%, which wouldve been 2nd in the nba in the 19/20 season), if we use aiming, most Teams will Shoot below 50%.

the free throw difficulty slider seems to have no effect at all as there is no difference between setting it to 50 or 100.

why is nobody talking about this problem?!

Re: free throw difficulty

It has been talked about with entries in the bugs thread and several comments over in the sliders thread.

It is a Real % free throw bug that 2K needs to fix. There is nothing that sliders or other settings can resolve. Hope this fix is in an upcoming patch.

Hopefully more comments will highlight the problem, Maybe we start tweeting at 2K so they address it as this seems to be what gets addresses these days.

This needs to be fixed as soon as possible watching horrible free throw shooters shoot a high percentage is infuriating.

Re: free throw difficulty

I thinks it's because of custom sliders,

Because we have cleary seen that if you change even one slider for 1 notch than inside shot success, mid&3PT success and free throw success are affected with a lot higher %s happening. It's a lost cause. At the end of the day no sliders change really do anything good for user vs user in terms of balance, it all just weighs in some other ways.

free throw difficulty is ne only slider regarding freethrow shooting and it has no effect at all.

What i meant is 3pt slider is the only slider for 3pts but whenever we change 1 notch than all of a sudden inside shot success, mid succes gets way higher,too.

So we tested and only changed 3pt slider from 55 to 56 and all of a sudden free throws got herky jerky...

Free throws wasn't great but better on default sliders such as HOF, SS etc without any tweaks...
