B) CPU now taking too many circus 3-point shots. In my game against the Cavs, they took 7 first-half 3-pt shots from idiotic spots, including one shot by Shaq! None of the shots came with shot clock winding down. They simply took bad shots. This was on all-star default. C) I noticed more fouls, but 75% were against me, not the CPU. That could be the all-star cheat just kicking in D) Game froze right after I installed the patch. I needed to restart it again. E) Didn't notice any psychotic dunks after cpu offensive rebounds, but they didn't kick it out to set up a new offensive play either.

Dave...I was looking specifically for your comments as you are pretty much the biggest LIVE fan on these boards and have made a lot of good posts on the game for two seasons now.

So...to read of all those problems + crazy 3 point shots + no kick outs is kind of dissapointing.

Everyone seems to be saying the offense is now way too quick, 7 seconds and less stuff like the Mike D offense...is the game really this bad? Your opinion is pretty similar to mine on this game on most issues.

Maybe the DNA just doesn't allow the CPU to attack in transition? I had high hopes for this patch. Is rebounding improved at all? Does the CPU now kick the ball out and re-set it's offense at all?

I've already mentioned a few times how to get the CPU to attack the basket in transistion.

It's just like it was in 2k10 they put some kind of code for all players at zero for layup vs dunk aggresiveness. You got to go in and change it on your own or waite for EA to assign an actual rating for all players.

Damm...how does that happen?

This is online only, right?

I am / was going to play a dynamic season PM...so I can only use EA's rosters.

In fairness Court, I could only base my opinions on one game post-patch. It's all I had time for.
I need to play a few more before I make a final judgement.

Free throw feels more responsive, more accurate. Very nice.

That's interesting. Hopefully Marcus and Beluba will read that and we may see some changes via DNA.

Yup, you'll notice more fouls on collisions going to the rim, and they don't feel cheap. Very happy about this.
