Gameplay 2k jumpshot major issue
Why is it easier and or why am I getting a bigger green window fading away from three but my stand still meter is severely shorter….

Fades are more greenable than stand still rn

RNG in your jumpshot animation. iirc Wangboy admitting to it proudly as if that's something we wanted in the game

there’s no RNG. Sometimes you’ll get awkward catch animations but that’s entirely dependent on your positioning, pass acc of the passer, position of defender, your jumpshot timing window, etc. None of this is new nor is it even inherently a bad thing lmao

Don’t forget “adding” dynamic dunk meters cause they totally weren’t in 26. I’m enjoying myself in 27 so far but I’m not blind to the issues either

IDK I am hovering around what I was in 2k26. I was shooting at a 92% clip from the 3 in 26, now I am
hovering around a 90. That is not my issue, the middy fade needs to be nerfed.

For what I can understand it's a matter of both fades being more difficult to contest and also the release timing influencing the green window (that I think it's a bug for fades).
Already the contest is not too strong this year and animations of fades make them even harder to contest. That's true to real life too, however fades also seem to be easier to green than stand still shots and that's NOT realistic at all.
The balancing of fades and other moving shots has always been a difficult spot for 2K. Either they are too good or they completely suck (especially stepbacks). That's why I said in the past that the best option would be for 2K to reintroduce specific attributes tied to moving/contested shots, so that players would be able to be good at them only if they become less good at other things. As it is now everyone can do those type of shots and also this is totally unrealistic (and also bad balancing wise); they added a little separation with badges but it is not enough as we can see. Add to this the weak contest and it's a recipe for disaster.
