Why would they remove the "Shoot off the Dribble" rating? - Operation Sports Forums

Hey everyone,

We’re excited to announce that we have launched our own official Operation Sports app. It’s available on the iOS App Store and in the Google Play store:

For those of you who have been around these parts for quite some time, you might know we’ve had an app before, but the Tapatalk app was not “official” and was only a way to look at the forums on your phone. However, when the forums changed in any way, it would make that app a bit unwieldy/buggy.

It was still better than nothing, and we’re grateful it lasted as long as it did, but we did not have much control over it or ways to update it. With our own official app, we’ll be able to actually release app updates that can include new features and bug fixes.

On the app, you will be able to scope out both the front page and the forums. Since this is only the start of the app, we are aware of many known issues, particularly around the forums, and we plan to add more to it in the future based on your feedback. In addition, it may take a little longer than usual when you log-in for the first time, but it should not be the case after that initial log-in. With all that in mind, we’ll have a spot on Discord where you can provide feedback.

For example, I want to add more to the forums side of things so you all have more options when making posts and threads on the app, and I want you to more easily be able to navigate large threads with many pages of posts.

As always, we can’t do any of this stuff without you all, so thanks again for the continued support. This app along with the Discord are a couple of the steps we have taken recently to try and bring this community together in as many ways as possible, and we plan to deliver even more on that front in the months ahead.

It was made redundant by the new ability ratings.

I know this is unrelated, but will we be able to edit sliders for online assocation on the nba2k.com site?

It is still a player rating. You have to click on the player and bring up his attributes. They also have some new ratings of specific shots.

I love it how, when a 2k representative replies to a thread, other users come to ask completely unrelated question just because they think the thread got their attention!

What new ratings? Like individual shots? Pull up jumper, fadeaway, etc?

Sorry for the OT but any insights on why the custom audio, self shadowing/jersey shaders, and new pre game intros are absent from the pc version?

Sadly I'm not... a user from OS got the pc version and confirmed it for us. At this point I wouldn't be surprised to hear they didn't include Steve Kerr for the commentary in the pc version lol

Question answered - no need to go on about a different topic.

Operation Sports is NOT a website for you to bitch and moan about sports gaming.
That's not the meaning of constructive criticism.
