Note: Didn't see an OT for the game, and no one seemed to be working on it so decided to whip up something quick for those of us who are playing!

 

[Face it Tiger..]

this is why we have a OT co-ordination thread :p

Started MYGM Bulls on HOF. Gosh it's so hard to freaking win some games. (I play the actual games except when it's against some top teams).

Yeah I asked in the OTs thread if anyone was working on it and no one did, so I just went ahead and made it. Maybe this one should be deleted, and we should all transition to yours?

Nice seeing you too aha. Yes I made the jump!

Speaking about the game now, I for the longest time couldn't make any shots. Taking away the shot meter actually helped me to time my releases better. Yesterday I decided to put the shot meter back on, and what do you know, all that the time I spent playing without it actually gave me the muscle memory needed to make more shots. I now make more Excellent/Good shots than ever.

I encourage those struggling to turn the meter off and time their shots based on your player's animation (you should be releasing at the peak of their jump), and once you feel comfortable taking shots without the meter, put it back on to get that extra visual representation to guide your releases.

Who has this on xbone and plays Pro-Am or in the park?

I need players to squad up with as randoms are extremely hit and miss. Mostly miss.

Gonna try without the shot meter. You're the second or third person I've seen recommend that.

When the game first released I was fine, but a week or two later I couldn't get a bucket if my life depended on it. I'm sure they changed something.

It really does work. At first it'll feel strange, but as you play more and more you will learn to read your player's jump and time your shots better. When your percentage gets higher, bring the shot meter back and you'll do great.

Just remember, stats matter. A "Good" shot is basically a perfect release that isn't "Excellent" because of your player stats.
