Shot meter help

Anyway to make this stupid thing start earlier? I always shoot in the red because the damn thing comes up when Midshot, then I release too early afterwards to compensate…

Do not follow the movement of the shot meter. Just use it as kind of feedback and shoot by the shooting animation and/or your muscle memory. Online it doesn't even work that you "watch" the shot meter to release the shot because of the delay.

This. I have mainly played offline and I can tell you that the latency or lag in the meter online is bad. It's like I have to relearn the release point because the meter doesn't stop when I release the button or stick. I know this has been a 2K issue for years. Even the NBA games in My Career are similar to offline games. Once I go to the parks and indoor courts, it's a totally different game because of meter latency and lag in player movement. It's not my internet.

So when you turn it off do you choose shot timing “off” or “real player %”.

I choose off.

But you must know/practice your players release. I'm mainly a H2H guy. So I know multiple releases . I spend a lot of time in freestyle. But for the most part. I can pick any random players shot in about 2-3 jumpers.

as you like it. realfg% takes timing completely out of the equation, you just have to start the shooting motion. off still includes the timing but you dont see a meter.
