Just your average RTTP game?

[Readysetdiego]

Pretty much the average box score after most games. Some closer than others... I was the away Team, and to start off the game when he had momentum, he was shooting like 60-70% from 3 for the first half.

Notice the insane assist differential... Worst part is that it wasn't even Iso shots killing me. If you torch me in an Iso situation without zig zagging then I could care less, but zig zagging is too effective even on good on ball defense. Percentages do catch up to you but there are those occasions where they don't.


He had a 2 point lead at one point, which didn't last too long but still. For the majority of the first half and half of the 3rd quarter it was just volume 3's and zig zagging for open long range perimeter shots.

Once I clamped down on defense he couldn't get most of them off with a clean look. He still however was knocking down highly contested shots.

3 point chuckers can hang with anyone it seems, as my last game was a 88-83, but I forgot to screen shot the box score. The guy zigged all game long and shot like 45% from 3 on like 40 attempts.

This patch is nice for us who get shooters open the right way and then we knock down the shots. However, the zig zagging ruins it... A shot penalty resulting from zigging and zagging should be implementing. And stripping the ball from those players should be a lot easier like someone has mentioned here before.

Even if you contest heavily they'll shoot 55% usually.

Yea, thats happened to me a few times. It's stupid, not to mention lockdown defender seems to be useless in this game.

Oh and I bought a Jordan, and I can't upgrade his PLD badge at all, everything else is gold

Re: Just your average RTTP game?

Remember when people considered scoring a high percentage of your points in the paint to be cheese?

Re: Just your average RTTP game?

Really average game. Most have more than thirty 3 pointers

It looks like a quick game to me not MT. Why are the teams named Orlando Magic and Brooklyn Nets? Normally the teams have custom names like the Brooklyn Blue Waffles or whatever.

I didn't even know Orlando was an option I thought you could only use florida?

Since he came with the badge, upgrading it "consumes" an open badge slot. If he doesn't have it by default, it seems to work fine. Same goes for drop stepper.

So, assuming he has no empty slots, he can't upgrade either badge. If he has 1 empty, and Drop Stepper is gold, it's likely that.

That's been the result of my testing so far.

Re: Just your average RTTP game?

And I don't think there's an issue with taking that many 3 point shots. That's how some teams are built irl. Look at Houston they can take about 30 three point attempts on any given night.

The difference is how you do it. If you're swinging the ball to the weak side, playing 4-1 and using screens or plays etc to get guys open then I see no issue with it whatsoever.

But when you're zig zagging and hitting fade aways from 30ft. Thats just cheese.

You're comparing full 48 minute games with 12 minute quarters to the game which is 24 minutes with 6 minute quarters.

Post patch, most of my games are composed of people shooting 30+ 3 pt shots per game. Do teams in real life shoot 60+ 3 pt shots in a game?

Yeah but you're playing it like it's real life. Like it is 12min. Nobody averages that many assists or that many points in the paint in 6 minute quarters real life either. You should be playing like real life.

As I said. I think it would be b.s to only take 5 threes per game or whatever weak sauce people on here are wanting. It's about how you shoot not how many. Zig zag is cheese. Swinging the ball around, moving it to the weak side, running picks, different plays etc. If you're scoring off that it's legit.

If anything they need to patch the % of makes. The quantity is fine Imo. Anyone shooting less than 10 threes per game probably has terrible floor spacing and loses often.

Baseline dunk cheese is worse. Only thing worse than that is zig zag.

In an average myTeam game, you average about ~50 shots. You're saying that 30+ 3pt shots is okay and realistic as long as they don't "cheese". So taking 60%+ of your shots from 3 is realistic to you?

Ok, we can all agree that it is a game and not an actual basketball sim, thus we score 70 ppg in 20mins on myteam. But sorry man having 60-70% of your offenses 3 point shot Permenanlty and against man to man, is not realistic. You can not guard either. All this non sense about on-ball defense. People just stepback frezze and shoot, or pass catch and soot instantly. You just can not guard this.

shooting 10-15 even 20 3 in SOME games foe instance against zone etc could be ok. But right now the game is fine played by a player taking the ball from one side to another, stepback and shoot 3, or turbo to the corner and shoot 3, and even pass, catch and immidietely shoot 3.Many of the offenses are in less than 5 seconds against an ORGANIZED defense after theopponent has scored a basket. It's irrational for players like that to have 50-60% . If someone wants to play like this is fine byme, the problem is that it is just too awarding. A team playing like that would never have more than 33%. You see games with 60-75% from 3's.How many games have you seen for a team shooting so much from3s having such 3PT%? By the way I can't remember how long i have since I lost a wide open 3 with durant or Mullin. I mean for the last 10-15 games I have not missed ANY wide open 3 with these guys
