3point shot
I'm playing PG 2nd season, overal 87, shot rating 95 (max) and for some reason after last week update (had 2 on FRI&SAT) I can't hit even a wide open 3pointer, not to say when the defender is closing in to block. Did not have 1 out of 20+ attempts. Although many guys posted that the shooing has improved after latest update, seems like for me it worked the other way around.
Any help is welcome.

My overall is 71, and I make open jumpers all the time. Maybe its your release?

try monta ellis quick release. Also its way way more difficult to get a perfect release if you are playing on hall of fame difficulty lower diffucultys makes it easier to score so if you are missing wide open shots in hall of fame difficulty it's not you its the game. Its how they make the game harder by making the player weaker :)

I'm playing HOF from the beginning and I have made 3 pointers before, now it just seems impossible and the more I try...

like i said its the game its better to drive into the paint and get layups/dunks or jumpers close to the rim then when your player gets on fire(double red rings) he can swoosh threes open or slightly contested.

My player never gets hot even though I'm scoring 40 a game. Always just 1 ring inside the main big circle.

you must not have the badges yet but once you get them you get hot in a hurry. Microwave+volume shooter+heat retention(idk what its really named i forgot) and you will be on fire all the time.

Yeah that seems to explain it, coz I do not have those badges.
However in another MC where I play as a C 77 overall I have no badges and yet getting hot very quickly. Any explanation to that?

You could be doing more as a center in the form of rebounding, setting picks, etc that could be bumping that meter up faster. And as a center you're going to be taking higher percentage shots in general most of the time.

Users make the mistake of watching the timer instead of the players shot form. The purest shot forms in the game, in my opinion, are: Ray Allen, John Wall, KD, Kobe Bryant, and Tony Parker, all set to quick. It just depends on what form your most comfortable with. I play on HF all the time and have no problem hitting shots.

Do you know any shot forms that are free? Just don't want to spend all the VC to find out later it doesn't work for me.
