Arrow Nearly impossible to hit two straight 3's in a row

Has anybody else experienced this? I've played about 70-80 online ranked games and I get soooooooooooooo many opportunities to hit a 2nd straight 3pt shot with a player and he ALWAYS misses.

These shots are wide open but it doesn't matter. The 2nd one always misses. I think I've only hit 2 in a row once and that was with Ray Allen. Even with two different players it is very hard to hit two 3's in a row.

This confuses me because how is a player supposed to get in a shooting rhythm if the 2nd one always misses? Usually after a made 3, the shooter gets some rhythm going and is MORE likely to hit the 2nd one.....but its never like that in 2k.

I'm beginning to think this is some kind of glitch because it happens all the time, no exaggeration. It's come to the point where I pass up on an open 3 if i just hit one the possession before....because I know its gonna miss.

Don't get me wrong....i love where the shooting is at the moment. This aspect of it just annoys me because it's coming off as a legit bug in the game because it happens so often.

Yes. Not only is it nearly impossible to hit two threes with the same guy, it's just as impossible to hit two threes in a row in general.

Yup, thats what i'm saying. It's crazy because this doesn't allow you to build momentum from 3pt shooting.

When teams go on runs in real life, two straight 3's can shift the momentum heavily to their side. But this is nearly impossible in 2k16.

I've hit two 3's in a row MAYBE twice the whole time I've played this game. It does seem fairly impossible to do

Re: Nearly impossible to hit two straight 3's in a row

This is definitely true. U can be wide open with an elite shooter and he never hits two in a row. Which is annoying because it keeps u from blowing someone out online. Its like the game won't let u and its lame. I should be able to punish a user if he's playing bad defense and the game simply will not let u. It's beyond frustrating.

Don't know about online, but offline it's certainly possible. Even in the playoffs, especially when behind.

Real talk man. Sometimes I feel like the game is programmed to always keep it close online. It's crazy.

I've had so many close games because of consecutive shots not dropping even when wide open. I don't want to have a close game every time i play someone, i want to be rewarded for playing properly.
