    Last time I had such a controller was for nintendo. Does that even count as a modded controller where I didn't have to keep jamming on the A button?

    I think i used it for that Konami game where I was a Olympic runner. Man the nostalgia lol

          So am I the only one who took the honorable way of putting my thumb inside of my shirt and rubbing against the buttons as fast as I could?

            Yeah... How is this only a thing now?

            People have been lighting up the scoreboards since the Sharpshooter class was invented in 17. Even in 16 as an "outside" archetype, there were ways to defend them.

            But hiding behind a screen and shooting green after green has plagued this game for YEARS.

            Enough is enough. Banish the automatic make, PERIOD. Layup or otherwise, NO shot, not even a DUNK should be 100%.

            A two handed dunk still has the chance to rim out on this game. I've encountered it several times even on fast breaks WIDE OPEN.

            How a three has had a higher success rate than a DUNK never made sense to me.

              That's nothing, Rookie.

              I used a comb to press the buttons to run faster on arcade cabinet game Track and Field.

                Man...there's a higher chance of me missing a dunk or getting blocked on a dunk attempt than there is of me blocking the shot of someone who "mastered" their shooting.

                  Great write up buddy!!! I think you covered all the bases!

                  That's why I think it's time to do away with the green Releases. Screwed up the game from the get.

                  Not very interested in this years game.

                    Haha. Thanks for that article. I had no idea that this existed. The CPU can be aimbot on 2 point shots and fts sometimes making every shot contested or not.

                    Hopefully this will be the death of the perfect release

                      I really hope it does. I'm tired of seeing it one. And tried of that dominating and a conversation about this game. Like I'd seriously go back to the headband threads. At least they were fighting for something.


                      And I do think it's hilarious that people are just learning about this stuff. Feels like when I learned about a lag switch lol

                          Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

                            This has been used for years. How this just came out makes me laugh.

                              I've been thinking since long time that introducing these arcade mechanics and mini-games as shooting bars/indicators, green releases to expect to be 100% in and all this stuff was the beginning of the end of this saga. NBA 2k in the past was a simulation oriented NBA game which we used to love, but not anymore...

                              And here we are, I didn't know of the existence of these modifiers, but what I know is that current NBA 2k gameplay mechanics encourage people to use them and that "skill gap" is not real anymore... Perhaps it's time to go back to the NBA 2k fundation and erradicate these arcade mechanics?

                              I have no issue with having release timing or aiming to factor shooting outcome, but not to this exaggerated extent, I hope NBA 2k team as a whole reacts to this and the orientation of the game go back to basketball fundamentals and ratings and not so focused on arcade mini-games...
