NBA 2K15 Patch #4 Available Now, Primarily Addresses Shoe Issues

[erickonasis]

If patch 3 was so great then why the he** did you use sliders?

These statements are laughable.


Thank u 2 k for patch 4 it was much needed offline .

HOF sim is now perfect


And i challenge anyone to stream playing on HOF sim offline NO Sliders to always get Green releases like they are claimimg


I'll watch it

This issue to me isn't that it's too easy to hit green releases, it's that shots with a green release go in 99% of the time. I've only missed two green release shots all year in several hundred games played.

Maybe a better shooting system would be:

green release = you get your player's true shot rating
slightly early/slightly late release = -3 attribute points to the player's shot rating
late/early release = -9 attribute points to the player's shot rating

I'm not sure what the ideal minus values would be, but that's definitely something that could be tweaked to perfection with a little testing.

I've always preferred shooting systems that have the ratings matter more than the release timing. Dudes with 60-70 shot ratings shouldn't be draining buckets that extend well beyond their natural abilities, just because the user has mastered the timing of players' shooting animations.

Exactly, and patch 4 made things much worse in that regard. At least in patch 3, shooting was more on a realistic level in regard to player ratings. Now ratings have no effect from mid range.

I'd like to catch a stream of that too...

I consider myself a pretty seasoned player and even I can't get 9/10 green releases on HOF like some are claiming...

Not even disputing that it's the case, but I want to see it in action...

I'm on Xbone so I can't say, but checking out this thread and the slider threads, it looks like offline players haven't been able to find a good set of slider adjustments yet to keep shooting percentages sim like.

Seems like just lowering the shot making sliders isn't enough because green releases are too common and green releases seem to go in 100% of the time.

The slider set using real FG % without user timing also doesn't seem to have this all worked out yet.

There was a lot that apparently went into this patch, including some game speed related things. Maybe we'll know more when patch notes finally come out.

A lot of the game play adjustments are getting good reactions, it's just the problem of shooting becoming too easy offline, and the sliders not seeming to be sufficient to correct that.

I will do the video because I was green lighting all over the place with my Nets on HoF/Sim.
