3pt Shooting has been Tweaked(Feedback Thread)

[EarvGotti]

Mike Wang's 3pt shooting tweak went live this morning. I haven't tried it for myself yet, but so far i'm hearing a lot of reports that its way harder now.

People are getting way less green releases from 3, other than the corner 3. Lets get some feedback going for Mike over the next couple of days.

I'll do some testing myself in a few.

I'll test this out in a bit myself. Gonna be from a MC vantage point

I personally think this was done so anybody that has low 3pt ratings can't shoot 3s well.

I don't mind because I use the midrange more than 3 by a whole lot (shot creator my main player: use him 90% of the time.)
Only time I shoot standing 3s is in corner.

I don't use moving threes anymore because they were nerfed heavily.

I played with one random who left his man (sharpshooter; like 91 overall and all badges HOF but Midrange Deadeye) wide open and he shot 3/7. The random was a rookie 4 70 something overall btw.

This is the worst shooting tweak yet - my sharpshooter can barely green in my own practice court now.

So after playing a few My Team games online and shooting around in practice....WOW....3's really took a HEAVY hit.

Shooting with guys that have 95+ 3pt rating and i couldn't green any 3 other than the corner 3. Paul George has the easiest release in the game and used to green everything for me before. Now he doesn't green anything anymore.

I think the hit to open 3s is a bit too much. If wide open, then i should be able to green a bit easier.

Totally messed up, this wasn't​ a tweak this was a monumental shift. To play with this change I would literally have to change how I've played every 2k game ever.

Change it back until you can get it right. Really all you need to do is dial back contested, fadeaway, and corner threes and stop bigs with high midrange be able to hit the corner ones.

Dude. This is rough af. I usually don't complain and I never beg for tweaks and changes online. In fact, I have tons of disdain for crybabies here on OS and elsewhere. But this is just insane. I'll adjust, but this seems drastic as hell.

Well good thing is he said he would be looking for feedback on the weekend so he will probably tweak it again - the thing about 2k is that they tweak things by extremes. Is either too easy or too hard. Not sure why they can't find a balance.

I mostly use my lockdown and i have been shooting pretty great with him from the corners - but i'm willing to sacrifice that aspect in order for the game to be balanced. The main thing that bothers me is that many people increased their 3 on their players to take advantage of the past shooting meta - now with it being changed we all pretty much lost how many upgrades?. And that's quite an unfair thing - we should be able to atleast get our upgrades back when such changes occur. So we can readjust our playstyle. Would that be too much to ask?. (Probably yes since 2k is money hungry).

But yea - you have to realize how this affects many archetypes from a wasted upgrades perspective. It's not our problem you can't balance your stuff. If you will make it impossible to make 3s - then don't give us low rated 3 guys even the option to upgrade. Because what's the point?. To hit 3/10?. Not worth it.

The thing is - my main complaint is limitless range - i just feel like people sinking very deep 3s consistently is cheap as hell. I would kind of rather that sharpshooters can hit contested 3s a bit better than limitless range 3s.

Because it's just SOOO much ground to cover on defense - and since most archetypes are slow and have low defense (coupled with the sluggish defensive movement) it's a consistent thing for sharpshooters to be left wide open on these deep 3s. If defense was better i wouldn't mind - but it's just not. Not to mention brick wall cheese. And archetypes like playmakers that can easily get past most people so you have to be forced to constantly switch or give up easy points.

But anyways - yes you can defend it - but with randoms is quite an annoyance. Those are the main issues for me when it comes to shooting.

Normal 3s i don't mind - because it's a more realistic ground to cover. Heck in some way i rather they sink all open 3s from normal range - then they sink limitless range 3s consistently. Because again - it's a more realistic ground to cover - it doesn't make it as horrible for us people who play with randoms and constantly have to help on defense.
