Issues with shooting in online game modes
10 days ago I bought 2K26. I've been playing 2K every year since 2K15. My favourite game is still 2K16, I played so much MyPark that year that I hit Legend 3. Back then I ran a 6'3 outside scorer PG.
2K17 was also a blast; that year I used a 6'6 PG. From 2K18 to 2K20 I switched to a 7'3 post-scoring center and was dominant with it, high FG%, high win rate, all that.
But after that something changed. For the last 5 editions of 2K, I’ve constantly felt like my shot meter is glitched or delayed in online modes. Because of that I stopped playing online and only played a handful of games each year. I brick everything, it’s honestly unbelievable.
Today I tried some Event Center games vs AI but with online teammates, and if I shot 30% from three across all games, it would be a lot. I have a 96 3-ball this year on my 6'4 PG with maxed badges. I even tried turning the meter off and switching to rhythm shooting — it got even worse.
At this point I'm done. I'm deleting the game and going back to single-player story games.
Just wanted to rant lol.
