NBA 2K13 Patch 1.02 Released, Details Included, Post Your Impressions Here (PS3, 360)

[TeeDogg]

seems to be more wonky animations now, passing lanes are played better by the CPU. and on ball D feels alot different, im getting some wierd animations and player positions issues with on ball D. I think i may just need to work on my sliders to remedy these things. graphics for uniforms seems different too (may be placebo)

is run plays still backwards? do all coach profiles still have to be set to 0 run plays to truly tone down the breaks and get a half court game?

I saw someone in this thread ask about Finisher 3/3. I DO NOT play My Player/My Career, so can't comment on that. I don't know what the deal with how they apply Finisher to NBA guys, but I have noticed that Monta finishes ALOT better at the rim now. Whereas before, I'd miss alot of layups (ESPECIALLY and 1's), he finishes alot more plays at the rim now (ESPECIALLY and 1's).

I say this, as I'd wonder why he'd miss (literally) every single and 1, or any contact whatsoever at the rim meant a missed layup. I still miss some, but he makes alot more than he did before.


I think the patch has been a big positive as far as I'm concerned. I don't play online (who wants to deal with that nonsense on a day to day basis?), so this applies to offline only, and mainly quick games for now, as I'll be starting my Association shortly. Rebounding is much improved, and the Fast Break nonsense is also better.

Pleasssssee patch the nicknames. Instead of "Black Hole" passes to "The General" , can you please just make the announcers say their last names?

[SambFTW!]

pretty funny that I waited for them to fix playvision, only for me to see that the plays don't work.

Ok I installed this patch (PS3). The first thing I wanted to do was see how online played. As I go into the online option my game froze. I thought that was interesting.

Anyway my impression of the patch for online is offensive rebounding seems to be tuned better. I like the fact that they call reach in fouls for steal spammers now.

But I still find that 3's and mid range shots go in far too often contested or without any ball movement. It seemed to be a little better, but not to my liking. Also inside passing and scoring is still too easy/overpowered.

I haven't played my career yet to see the improvements there, but I wish 2k would fix the the speed of passing and pass/catch animations in relation to the defense. What I mean is the the defense is able to close out unrealistically because of the slow pass and catch animations. Also the AI is just flat out dumb and doesn't recognize when they are open. A lot of times they will run right into the defense AS SOON AS YOU MAKE THE PASS making the spacing poor. These issues need to be fix/patched for real.

Out of all the small issues with this game, the one thing I wanted to see fixed doesn't look like it was. It takes a act of congress to make a contested layup in this game. It really makes the game almost unplayable for me. Everyone misses lay ups if theirn contested one little bit.

If anyone has figured out some sliders or something for this, please let me know.
