That risk reward shooting is going to be broken. I’m going gamble and to set mine to high risk reward and learn to shoot. This is 2K so something will be broken so I’m going to guess this option may lead to 2K22 contested Luka style shots going in etc. If not, the opposite will be the low risk reward will work like 2K22 where you just need to get open and if you’re moderately okay at shooting it’ll go in and we’ll get 85-90% from 3 games back again. Either way that’ll be the thing that ruins this year. Edit: the only way this could maybe be balance is if low risk can make some slightly early/lates when wide open but high risk can make much heavier contests and any contest on low risk means it’ll miss. Edit 2: I’ve watched further and saw the defence changes…if this works, and I mean works, people are going to complain so much this year about not being able to defend. The amount of people relying on ghost contests and hands down contests is ridiculous. This may break the community in half.
Im really curious about the changes to AI, and the not gonna lie i feel you om the shoving a controller through my tv. I try to run isolation quick plays and yet my AI teammates still cut to the basket and clog the paint sometimes even when i have driving to basket set to manual. And also hoping the changes to AI means they can tweak the AI per game mode so we dont have 99 ovr defenders with the same brain that is used for the AI in MyCareer REC.
That happens cause we’re still playing 2K14 in a dress. The AI at its core isn’t built to think like modern NBA players. It’s why they still cut over staying open for 3 and why the AI STILL helps off the corners even though the drive is covered.
I'm curious what features AI will have access to. If right stick fake outs for a bad read are too devastating, it will drive more people to play exclusively off-ball defense because typically the rules and mechanics haven't applied to AI the same way. They're hyping up some ideas that sound like they've got great potential, but I've bought their games enough times to know that their hype-to-progress ratio is pretty bad sometimes
They definitely need wayyyyy more dribble sigs it’s 2024 we should have more then just Everyone having Kyrie or Jordan dribble style on every damn player
