I'd say so. Much better.

I played two games, with 10 users in each. The game played smooth. Very playable now. No more slow down or "waiting for opponent" message popping up every 10 seconds.

The only thing is that there is still that half-second lag when you try to do something. Makes it very hard to guard people or stay with them with they don't have the ball and are constantly moving around.

But other than that. Much much improved. They also added a few different camera angles too which work well.

I'm guessing there's no camera flip for High camera still? At least I can play on 2k.

Thanks Dakkon. I'll take that over orange chin.

Its a lor smoother rarley any lag but the problems that were going before still happen a lot. Sometimes you join a Ranked team up and it will not find 9 other players in a span of 2 minutes. Other times when there are 10 people and the clock hits 0 it freezes and you can still shoot around but it is kinda liek th egame is waiting for someone with a bad connection to quit on there own. THe whole 34 second things happens still when the 34 second clock will go down and then reset it self. Sometimes when i was in the middle of games It would end on us saying that the network connection blah blah blah so then we cant finish the games. SO basically all they did was Add new Camera angles and lessened the lag but there is still some lag sometimes but not a lot. There still work to be done on 5 on 5

Man, the game seems to really play hectic all of a sudden since the patch and I dont like it at all. Im in a game with Washington with only the strength sliders tweaked from what I had pre-patch and Ive already seen many instances where Haywood drove on defenders and took it to the rack, which is unbelievable to me. On a side note, when downloading the patch it doesnt effect my rosters or tendencies that Ive downloaded already and incorporated into my association does it?

don't know if this was mentioned but the quick menu during gameplay now shows how many fouls a player has.

I didnt notice a fix in Jose's jumper ???

Bosh and Bargnani were changed for sure though.

Jose still has that delay that takes too long before he releases the shot.

Thats latency. That happens with online game on every game. You just have to adjust to that. Its like that in football games, online fps games and just all online games in general. It also depends on how good your connection is. If you have crappy ping, its going to get worse.
