Been a couple of weeks since I played, so I'll update & try to play some later.

The pass to Beverly here is my biggest issue with contesting as well...Monta is in the paint when the pass is made...that whole sequence needs to be faster....because the penalty for semi contests is already severe...

If they really, finally removed that ugly under the basket jumper....

There's time where this game plays up speed, and other times it's slow as hell and lags, had the same problem in 14. Not sure if it's an in game problem, a server problem or something else. There are days where the game plays better/responsive than others. It's hard to know what it is because you can edit anything. But when this game plays fast, it's fun as hell.

* it could also be a frame rate issue, cause the game does skip once in a while on the Xbox one

I can relate to what you are saying in regards to the framerate fluctuations. The game ran faster and smoother out of nowhere last night and it made for a very fun and exciting game when this occurred. When did your game speed up? It does make you wonder what causes this although I have a hunch. I also see skipping especially when or after shooting the ball, disrupting timing! It's definitely more engaging at a faster and smoother pace!

If the game is animation driven, then the ratings are what trigger certain animations or keep certain animations from happening. So just like someone said earlier, there doesn't have to be a patch for this to take place...just knowledge of what ratings do what.

Have you guys noticed that trades are reflected almost instantaneously now? I believe this is what Fernando was referring to in regards to upcoming changes to address our concerns related to roster changes. Mozgov is already playing for the Cavs and Jeff Green is no longer on the Celtics roster. It appears to be more dynamic now.

I made a post about this a month a go in a thread, but nobody knew what I was talking about lol. When the game plays faster it tends to skip frames, but the overall game play is MUCH better overall. I played the game for 5 hours straight cause it was that fun.

And yeah, usually after the release you'd see a small skip, it doesn't bother me as much though tbh

If that was patched in why wouldn't they release something about it and release notes? Wouldn't things like this get them good press???

They already told us that roster movement is done manually, not on its own, so in this case there's really nothing to tell us....

I agree in general though....I have my doubts that all these elements are being patched and no one is saying anything...
