And there is the main problem. 2K is not going to do that. The better way to handle it though is to give those guys subtle boost until we have a long enough time to warrent those kinds of increases. i mean we have a 15 game sample size here. There is no reason to completely wipe out a rating based on 82 games of play for what has happened in 15.

I mean like you said what happens if next week they have a bad shooting week and that percentage drops to mid 30's?? Now we would still have these guys dropping threes like they are 3pt bombers.

I love that we have others options(change ratings or use other rosters) for offline play and I pretty much play only offline but damn do I feel bad for you mostly online or online only guys and I would be upset if I had to deal with that kind of stuff online.

I just don't understand how a professional company can just continue to joke the customers like this. This has to be some sort of joke. It has to be. There is no way the 2K Insider man isn't sitting behind his screen just laughing at how upset he makes OperationSports. It has to be a joke. I can't possibly believe someone can put out work so horrible.

C'mon I'm sure it's not their intention to purposely piss off the fanbase; there's no purpose to that/give them at least a little credit. I'd be curious to know how these ratings correlate to actual play. Since the 2nd patch, overall 3pt shooting was reduced - especially on contested shots. I don't play online a lot, but I haven't had an online opponent shoot over 45% from 3. Or shoot above 50% for the game and I'm not that good. Offline I think I may have shot above 50% once or twice; I generally shoot in the low-to-mid 40s percentage wise. And that's with my shot sliders at 45/45/47/50

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying these rosters are good or even average compared to the detail some in the community give to their rosters. Just saying I don't see how it's that out of whack that it's outright insulting/disrespectful to the community. I think it takes more than just looking at a number and freaking out about it; wondering how it correlates to actual in-game play.
