Stats bug. Help, please :(

[X-Raptor]

Hi,

I have this strange problem. When playing any match - play now, dynasty, doesn't matter, every 3 pointer I shoot also counts as a field goal and in a long dynasty this really messes up my stats. For example, if I make 4/6 FG and 3/6 3pts, the stats will show 7/12 FG. The strangest thing is this - the same problem occurs on nba live 2008 just as well. Any solutions?

Thanks in advance.

That's not a bug. That's exactly how stats are recorded in the NBA. Three point attempts are still field goal attempts, but they are also tracked separately in the boxscores and overall season/career statistics.

Oh, I see Thank You for that information. I wasn't aware of that.

No problem, glad I clear that up.

NBA Live 06 does actually have a stats bug though, when it comes to turnovers. Deflections out of bounds on steal attempts and blocks are counted as turnovers in NBA Live 06, which is not the way it's supposed to be. A minor flaw in an otherwise fairly solid title (indeed, one of my favourites in the series to date).
