The problem is that these "exploits" you talk about vary from person to person. Highly skilled players who can defend do not consider them exploits. People who can't defend do consider them exploits.

For example, I've had messages from people saying I exploit the paint too much. I've had messages from people saying I exploit the three too much.

If I pass it down low to Dwight Howard and you immediately jump every single time, of course I'm going to blow past you and get a dunk. If you are leaving Curry wide open every single possession, of course I'm going to shoot a lot of threes with him.

People think these are exploits, when instead it's just bad defense on their end.

Can't say anything on this. I play without shot meter and don't like it for myself at all.

The most exciting thing about that screenshot is the fact that there's a new type of beard for MyPlayer, not just the Harden type one. Oh yeah.....the green release stuff is cool too

The screenshot on page 1 is from NBA 2K15.

Very surprised this hasn't really been touched on, but I think the issue is Mike and the team are tweaking shooting globally. When we all know shooting online vs. offline is 100% completely different. I'm a 95% offline player and the few times I did go online I couldn't believe ppl actually play those modes primarily, because it's literally like playing a different game.

You cannot tune shooting for both to be the same. This is why patch 4 failed so badly. Offline shooting before patch 4 was fine, online had major issues (based on the complaints I saw here). For me, I was having the BEST games in my 2k life in my Bulls MyLeague. I'm talking double ot games, buzzer beaters, u name it. Competition was great. Patch 4 ruined all of it and I traded the game in 2 weeks later.

If they truly want to satisfy both groups they have to separate online shooting and offline shooting. Because "fixing" 1 only ruins the other.

I seen people thinking this is really stupid making the shot meter pointless . I guess people don't understand that just because you get a perfect release doesn't mean 98% of the shot should go in , should just mean the timing was right but more so ratings should factor the most of all . But i do kind of like the meter to be gone or at least come out the box with it off universal with the ability to cut it on .

Exactly my thoughts. Shot rating is key, not your release timing.

People will cry when things don't go as they THINK they should go. I give it by November 12.
