Re: Tips on Getting a Green Release in NBA 2K15 MyCAREER Mode

I'm glad this has gotten exposure. IMO releases have been a problem not just in MyCareer but for specific players for a long time. Some players have always been easy to use on offense basically because of one thing - the release given to them, while others are so difficult even if you have a good shooter, you can't hit shots with them on HOF sim.

I got a lot more perfect releases off the dribble than a set three . Idk if it was Because of shot creator or not .

Re: Tips on Getting a Green Release in NBA 2K15 MyCAREER Mode

This is the first issue that clearly affects the competitive balance of the game. It handicaps certain teams and certain players and favors others. I am sure 2k will fix this. I doubt they will allow over half of the teams to stay handicapped.

Some having windows that are so tight, it's extremely difficult to get it in an open gym to even find it. I use Kobe's shot and what you'll find if you play long enough is that the shot is impacted if you have a good defender on you - even if he doesnt contest the shot. The release has so many factors, it's hard to get a good release. But that's the fun and for the most part it's realistic.

The problem comes into play on Free Throws. The release on A LOT of them seems to take forever. MJ's FT shot is quick, Lebron's isnt but you still find yourself waiting a lil bot to release.

I think your best bet is to use the button instead of the thumb stick.

I turned the shot meter off it was such a distraction . Visually it doesn't seem to mesh with the release online

Kobe's got a nice shot. I used him once this year and absolutely torched on HOF sim and was able to get green releases with him without ever having practiced his shot.
