Gamepad that lets you hit FTs?

Postby crapman on Wed Aug 20, 2003 1:26 pm

FTs are impossible to hit in lag online. But some people can... which amazes me and seems impossible since lag is not constant, how can you time FTs in lag?

Anyway, is it possible that there is a controller that has a Macro set to make it so you can hit FTs real easy?

I don't have pads or don't know about their macros. But this would be another good reason why there should be a option for having the AI throw the ft's for you...

Live 2003 the easiest shot was the hardest to hit... At least on super star. (Free throw)

The Thrustmaster Firestorm is pretty good for free throws, at least in my experience.

Yup, nothing will go past the Firestorms.

Unfortunately, Electronic Boutique has decided to stop selling them in Australia.

I struggle a lot with free throws even offline with my lousy framerate and the fact that I think its just FAST on the top level. I'm not sure how the pad would make a difference though since its just a button press and timing...? Even with a macro, different ratings = different speeds so... I think metsis is right about letting us sim those.

I never heard anything about a Firestorm until now... :oops: I thought everyone was using a Wingman.
