@BlaqKobra this is good advice. aim small, miss small.

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

@BlaqKobra this will be addressed

If a defender is in perfect guarding position but doesn't put a hand up, what contest coverage would you expect on a perimeter jump shot?

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

@tpgotgame 💪🏻

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

This is my mistake. You don't lose Perimeter Def. when you lose adrenaline, you lose Block and Steal ratings. Sorry for the confusion.

[Sheehy83 @Sheehy_83]

You should NOT lose perimeter d rating when you lose an adrenaline bar, it's like it's punishing you for trying to play defense especially when they say you need to jump at everything. @b1s man i think this is one of the worst things I've seen so far.

@__YoThatsEJ only to your builds EJ

Nothing has changed with shooting or game speed. When we do make gameplay changes, they will be announced through our official 2K channels and/or patch notes.

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

@Coreyinthahoes we have not touched any on-court gameplay. when changes happen, we will announce them through official channels.

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

@playboiinard nope

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

@Lukegmorris93 @NBA2KMovement the better your timing, the greater margin of error you’re allowed to match the Tempo. for rhythm shooting, Timing is just another factor (like coverage) that dictates the size of the green Tempo window. so timing matters but it’s not the determining factor for makes and misses.

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

@_SDarnellC_ @WoLF74 First option under Controller Settings, do you have Shot Timing turned OFF?

[Mike Wang @Beluba]

@HimothyHames @Coastal_Bucketz Usually the right stick is moving too slow or too late. might help to get a slower jumper.

@Mister_c_smoove @Baugherrr that’s a new one
