NBA 2K15: Fixing Broken Shot Forms Exposes Flaw in Shooting System

[jeebs9]

I know one thing... 2k regrets the day they put in the whole green visual system at the bottom of players. This thing has caused more problems and threads than I've ever seen.

I still use the visual of the wrist for timing all my shots. And I've been really happy with the results. I think the way it was before was better (before the post).

And also, this is stretching a little, but 3-pointers and mid-range are almost identical when it comes to timing and green releases, at least in the Rec center and especially in the corners. I can't say that it isn't fun to go out and score a ton of points all the time, but when anyone can do it anytime--that's a big problem, and that's why I'm not down with the online shooting mechanics. Since the last 2 patches, every other game there will be at least one team scoring over 100 easy in the rec, unless the teams don't know how to shoot or move the ball around.

If you play in the rec, do people use a my player and get to choose the release they want?

Is the patch worth downloading? I am strictly offline player (MyLeague and recently MyPlayer) and play on Superstar/SimWorld sliders. I put it on hold because of mass dissatisfaction..but realized most of those complaints are online players. How are offline players feeling about the patch?

Most complaints I read are from offline players

Which are easily fixable (changing sliders/lowering shooting ones). What other changes do people notice? I read they fixed the animation after turbo when driving, many MyCareer stuff and progression. If the only thing that's 'wrong' is shooting...I will download it.

Go ahead, find out yourself. Sliders do not fix the issue 100% because of the perfect releases. The shooting is broken. I really love the other things that they added to this patch, and the only thing i've ever complained about in this game was regression. Now that that's fixed, there's yet another huge problem that isn't fixable 100% and ruins the realism in the games.

the more I play the more I realize that the stats are starting to fall in line. 3pt% for user and cpu have been declining. 3 pt% is still a tad bit high.
not an issue now. the defense is very responsive. seeing some nice animations on fouls. Fouling a player from behind when going up for a layup etc. nice defensive recovery animations. .

Thanks to both of you. Download is small, thanks Steam <3

Will try it tomorrow because my dad is clogging the download speed with his work.
