LMAO I swear the casuals are so dumb. Every video about the news, I read the comments and they all said the same thing.


This is excellent news tho. I'm glad their changing, but they should've never used the term perfect release ever. Because patch 4 WAS all perfect releases

This is a situation of a bunch of smart guys getting in a room together and overthinking things. A perfectly released shot goes in, period. That's the point of a defender contesting a shot. To alter the mechanics enough to force a miss.

Making the release harder to get is logical. Saying a perfectly shot ball won't go in, is not.

Good shot > good timing

Great news, cuz patch 4, really hurt the game in 2k15

I bet that someone has already suggested that but:

What about a system where green release only means player can make a shot only at max of his real %?

For example (not actual statistics) - Lebron James - top left 3pt area:
- hit 70.2 % of uncontested shots
- hit 12,5 % of contested shots

The green release for Lebron James in this area only means, that he will hit in 70.2 % when uncontested and only 12.5% if the shot is contested. Maybe we could break down uncontested/contested shots even further... for example:

Green Release:
- hit 70.2% when uncontested
- hit 27.6 % when lightly contested
- hit 12,5 % when contested

Yellow Release (slightly early/late):
- hit 33.4% when uncontested
- hit 15.6% when lightly contested
- hit 5.5% when contested

Red Release (very early/late):
- hit 8.5% when uncontested
- hit 1.5% when lightly contested
- hit 0.05% when contested

I think that with such a system we will have a good compromise between user skills and realistic shooting percentage. In order to compete you will have to learn player shooting release, but also you can't except to make trees after threes with green releases with Deandre Jordan...

Just my 5 cents...

Great news, now what are you guys doing with the zig zagging problem?

That's what I was suggesting

[Ro Da Truth]

I rather have a whole new shot meter. The shot meter is inconsistent and seems out of sync at times.
