See that's why some folks are confused. This doesn't happen outside of my career mode.

People aren't specifying which mode they play so everyone is defending or criticizing this and everyone is ripping eachothers heads off because one party is saying it's horrible, and another is saying they don't see it.

Guys really have to specify which mode they play. This double team issue is definitely not happening for me offline against the ai in my league. It seems to be a my career only thing.

I agree 200% with the notion that people need to say what mode they're playing more often.

The frequency of the double team is a problem in MyCareer for sure. My playmaking SF was averaging 9 assists vs 1 turnover in 19 mins per game, before I took a break from it.

As soon as I come in the game & score a few buckets, the D sends the double & I just idle at the top of the key & make the easy passes.

The other complaint is just about how some double teams in 2K just don't make basketball sense. Like BaeBae32 said, you don't send a double team to the perimeter because someone is scoring bunches (send being the key word because it means someone is vacating a defensive assignment & creating a 4-on-3 disadvantage). I could understand trapping a 3pt shooter in the corner, because now the floor is shrunk & defenders have an opportunity to get back to their man if an unadvised lob pass comes out of the dbl. Also, pressuring the ball up the court, taking time off the clock, and as soon as the ball crosses the time line - send the double. That makes some logical basketball sense.

But sending a double to someone dribbling 24' away from the basket? Just dribbling outside of the arc, making no attempt to do anything other than dribble...and that's when it's time to vacate assignments and create a 4-3 mismatch...that's not basketball.

We need to get back to "don't play video games, play basketball"

Just a general feedback post patch and i have so many reasons that i can list but i will just say it here it goes..

Isnt this like 2k16 identical now ? And maybe even worse with so many OP offball/unnatural movements/contacts and worse ai adjustments and plays and freelances a lot worse than 2k16 and no natural anything and offbalancing within offense and between defense and offense. I mean..

Where are these supposed illegal screens meant to be? Just played a Pro Am game in which the other team did nothing but spam screens with 3 people around 2 sharpshooters the entire game and didn't see one illegal screen foul called?

It's nothing like it was last year where you had to actually time your screens. Add in Brick Wall badge and it kills any fun or skill in the game even after the patch.

Me and the person I was talking specifically mentioned MyCareer.

If he was talking about anything else or is confused that's on them or whoever else didn't fully read my post or the post above me.

Wrong post

[Baebae32]

Paint pass spamming is an on ball defense thing. People can zip the ball around wherever they want because the on ball defender has little to no effect on the type of pass a person can throw unlike in real life. Paint spamming would improve If 2k allowed for more deflections by the on ball defender or even just prevented some passes from being made when there is good pressure on the ball (to save the kids and casuals from themselves)

AT least in my experience so far.

Guys like you are the reason this game gets patched unnecessarily. How are guys stepping out of bounds a problem? It happens all the time in the NBA. And we all know this game needs as many non-steal turnovers as possible.
