    More greens from 3

    I picked up Rice and was getting some shots up in freestyle. Just about every 3 was green, I thought this card has the easiest release in the game for a sec. Getting that manny greens from 3 was unusual. That's when I put KD then CP3 and they were hitting greens.
    I know MT freestyle difficulty settings are low so I went to the main menu. I started a freestyle on HOF/SIM with the Knicks. On HOF/SIM I rarely got any green 3s before today. Melo and Afflalo were getting greens on the regular.
    Then I played a RTTF game and I got some greens on wide open 3s. It seemly like they increased the window for green releases on open 3s. I don't know how it translates yet.

    Hi, I don't know when it happened but protect the paint and/or zone was the way to go until november when I stopped playing. 3s were to difficult to hit evenwith great shooters as Amethyst Mullin and KD.

    I returned to the game 2-3 weeks ago and find out that this is not possible anymore. I start my games neutral plus in great shooters (Mullin/Klay/Allen/Curry) i play deny, and on great shooters like KD I play Tight.

    There are still some players who abuse 3s, but without anywhere near similar success as last year.

      It may just be coincidence that you are having a good shooting day, paying extra close attention or really focused, I don't know. The game was not patched this morning so there is no way that the shooting percentages became more relaxed all of a sudden today.

      Glen Rice is an absolute sniper though. He bangs in the 3s all day.

        Same thing happened to me about 2 days back. I was fooling around with Mitch Richmond in freestyle and I was getting greens from EVERYWHERE even the long bombs. At first I thought it was just that I finally got that fool's release down, but then I had an opponent burn me for like 10 3's in Gauntlet (mostly wide open looks but w/e) so I know something has changed.

          They patched something across the game can feel it. I feel it most in my career/park lots of more greens now. Also in my team my cp3 green lights a bunch now.

            Devs can tune shooting w/o a patch this year.

              I stand corrected then. The lack of transparency between the developers and the community is awful. So many things change behind the scenes and we really have no idea what's going on. It is very possible then that they made some shooting tweaks without any disclosure.

                Playing a challenge to see if what he said is true, it's not even half-time and I'm 6/6 from 3 as a team with 3 perfect releases. Th best I've ever shot in this game was 8/10 once. I'll post pics when done.

                    Ah that sucks. Especially online when guys leave their man wide open in the corner. Also transition 3 cheese will probally become a thing.

                      And here is the final result. This also goes to show the devs switch things up all the time without letting us know. Trustworthy eh??

                        i'm actually getting greens from the 3 point line with clyde the glyde all the time now in freestyle. They def did a lowkey shooting patch because i never got any greens with clyde before at the 3 point line.

                          Yeah they boosted green release from open 3s. I can hit all greens in freestyle but it's not as easy to get in games.

                            yes, this is true, devs can tune a lot of stuff without patches. they have tuned Gauntlet numerous times...and now I feel it plays its best.

                            I was getting decent greens before in freestyle with some guys like Draymond, from his hot zones. could crank em out 10 in a row. In game though...Draymond has been solid but inconsistent from 3 sometimes. When this thread was release though...I had played several games days before with Draymond having +6 shoe on. He hit maybe 40%, but as I said...inconsistent. It was either make two/miss two or something of the sort.

                            His shoe had expired and I didn't bother to put another one on him, just put speed shoe on instead. The next challenge I played with him he went 4-4 from 3pt range and I thought that was odd, then I read this.
