However, shooting in live is absolutely broken, because shot contesting in live is overpowered.

Yep the developers would stop listening to crybabies that refuse to learn how to play actual defense, and nerf the over powered BS shot contest mechanics, the game would be infinitely better.

I know I for one, am getting fed up with getting contested from 5 feet away or getting my shots contested even tho the defender is way way late to get to me and I was already in the air it with the ball released before the defender ever got his hand up.

It is pathetic at this point.

People bang contested shots on me all day. If it says contested I think it is gonna drop. They did raise the impact radius for some reason but I don't get impacted or rarely. If you're not a wing shooter or like a 3 icon guy you gotta get some rhythm before taking tough 3s. I hit 3s w pip a lot but I got the late contest trait.



Thing is, the real impact radius should be about halfway between where it was at first and where it is now, and that's only for elite defenders with a hand up at the right time. When the game dropped u had to practically block people to make them miss threes. They have gone alil overboard but only with the past two patches. But I think shooting "good shots" is easier and if it doesn't say guarded u could have made it. Haha. Maybe sometimes u can make a guarded top yellow but I don't recall making them. I've made plenty of top yellows over d tho.


N at matty Yea I mean I've known I've been talking to myself for some time but now it's like really apparent. Haha. O well.



Also disagree w lives career mode being better. Online is better. Offline is fun, but both need to be improved in different ways. Live needs Ai depth and mode depth. 2k needs mode depth like sandbox choices and less grind.
