2k13 Why adjust shooting but leave NBA Jam

[demfl]

What is going on with online shooting. I play my associations on sim mode and this shooting adjustment that apparently was made can't be sim. You can't hit anything.

This is the second time shooting is being messed with yet NBA Jam mode is still allowed. Anyone with Westbrook, Lebron, Iggy, Durant can turbo from half court and dunk on your whole team regardless of your defense. How about toning down the dunk fest?

I'm about to start running the 2-3 zone online.

Cuz that's what the kids want to see. If they had any intentions of toning down dunking, it would have been done by now.

Re: 2k13 Why adjust shooting but leave NBA Jam

Yea this is crazy. I woke up this morning to see if anything had changes...NOPE.

I played with the blazers and sum guy picked the lakers. He drove ALL game with kobe. Whole game was just run & drive. Kobe threw up 35 shots, & when he did miss of course howard cleaned up. I couldnt even play my game, so i just had to try and run with him. Close game, but with kobe's closer skill, it wasn't enough.

If i gotta play like this every time, then this isn't worth it till they fix this. Back to myplayer (which has gotten kinda boring imo)

Because one can easily be done with sliders/difficulty, the other cant be easily done (the frequency of dunks can be altered not the way they occur, aka, the sliding and omission of collision) ... in fact, it would requiere a whole new engine heavily leaned towards physics, if not a RTP ...

2k is all about adjustments, specially from the users ... take notes and adjust.

Within the last 24 hours (for me at least) there has been some trouble hitting wide open threes. Before if you were a decent shooter, you would hit 99% of your threes if you timed it right. Now I'm only hitting about 50% of my wide open threes with my guy who has 99 three point and all of that. I even have the Deadeye, spot up shooter, and microwave signature skills, and yet I can't hit any threes. I have been playing online blacktop the most and I definitely saw a change within that mode. Whenever I play one on one vs the computer in blacktop, I dont notice the shooting change. I get A's and A-'s on my shot feedback when I play vs CPU on blacktop. However when I go to Online Blacktop, the best I can get is a B-, and that is with all greens.

That's fine if they change it, but they should have warned us or something. I ended up trying a whole bunch of different shooting animations last night because I thought it was me that was causing this to happen. Guess not.

You are not alone. I've had the same problem, I thought it was my release but it isn't I turned on Feedback and I missed open shots with Perfect Release, Perfect Distance, Wide Open, and at least B grade on Blacktop.

99 3Pt
Deadeye
Anti Freeze
Corner Shooter

Money offline, Now 6-15 on Blacktop. Wtf?

I've been having the same problems with Blacktop. I can't make an open three to save my life. Stopped shooting them after a while. Figured it was just me though since I see others shooting very well from 3

Glad to see im not the only person having this problem. Ever since the last roster update, I can hardly hit any open 3s or midrange js at all online.

Same for me. Also, do you know how to see signature skills on Blacktop? I press up arrow on d-pad and nothing shows. The shot feedback is basically useless, in my opinion. It's too inconsistent.

I know my Sig Skills for Heart. Corner, Acrobat, Anti-Freeze, Dimer, and Deadeye.

Re: 2k13 Why adjust shooting but leave NBA Jam

I don't think the signature skills have any effect in Blacktop.

Re: 2k13 Why adjust shooting but leave NBA Jam

They tuned something... and whatever it is they changed I'd like it fixed asap.

Sorry but...

Lillard 0-5 3pt range

Batum 0-6 3pt range (wide open corner 3's with "corner specialist")

Pavlovic 0-2 3pt range (all green on feedback)

Babbitt 1-4 3pt range

Barton 0-1 3pt range

Matthews 0-4 3pt range (wide open corner 3's with "corner specialist")




Of course I lost this game shooting 1-23 from three on "green" uncontested releases...

Fix it!

I'm starting to wonder this too..

Re: 2k13 Why adjust shooting but leave NBA Jam

You guys just need to learn to adjust. The online 3's were out of control, so now you're just gonna have to learn to take better shots instead of just chucking 3's (or 2's in blacktop) and expecting everything to go in.

I've played blacktop and dudes are complaining about missed 2's. But they need to realize that those shots (that were going in before the update), are just bad shots that were being rewarded instead of them actually being good shots (that went in).

So basically - you're gonna have to work harder for open shots instead of just chucking and expecting them to go in all the time. Stop playing the game like it's the pre-update, and you'll have more success.
