NBA 2K9 Patch Released For 360/PS3, Impressions Here

[Walker8]

Just picked up the game again and played a few games.. I'm not understanding the complaints. Seems like 2k really came through here and improved the issues I was having with this game. Are people really still playing this game with sliders that were for pre patch with this patch? That makes no logical sense to me..... Game plays really nice now on default.

Game stats: the final score is 84-69 Blazers

Knicks(cpu) shot 27\62 43% FG 7\20 35% 3P 8\9 FT

32 points in the paint

Blazers(me) shot 34\57 59% FG 4\11 36% 3P 12\18 FT

38 points in the paint


As I stated earlier, players now run through screens instead of walking, which additionally gets you an open shot and more room ( the defender recovery time seems slower). I guess what they did, if it is possible at all, was that they made offensive player quicker in order to decrease defensive player's recovery time.

I've played 3 games so far on pro with default sliders and had a blast

Some people just can't be pleased.

Muzyk23,

Do you see players running to set picks as well? they always seemed to run off screens for me.

They still walk sometimes after the patch.

I notice more deflected passes in the paint, and more on ball steals....I especially like how teammates get out on the fast-break on steals, much more realistic....

running? I'm not sure, but I've seen good and timely picks set

Thanks edubbs. They definetly need to work on that for next year. Sometimes these cats run plays like a plumber getting paid by the hour..takes all day.

Thanks Muzyk. I'll check this out tonight.
