Fellas, loving all the info I'm finding on here...so after reading all these is the consensus to not download the "dynamic" updates or install the "patch" (sounds like they are one in the same)? It's sounding like you guys are saying that it disrupts the good gameplay, gamespeed, and team seperation. Thanks for any info on this.

Just dominated with Michigan State playing against Penn State...90-69. I decided to lower the midair collision slider down to 45 and found I was being sucked into a few less of those animations.

Anyways, Talor Battle dropped 20 on me but on 7-21 shooting with 8 turnovers so it was nice to see that Penn State recognized that he's their best player. Kalin Lucas outplayed him with 23 points and 10 assists.

I'm definitely enjoying the game!

John Wall just destroyed me in Rupp while playing with the Cardinals.

Wall 41 pts 14-21 FG, 9-11 FT, 4-6 3PT.

Dude was ballin'! I lost 82-71. I was able to cut the lead to 3 pts with about 2 minutes, but didn't have enough in the tank.

Oh, and for whatever reason, I am seeing more fastbreaks now. Not a lot, but they've come back a bit after raising the game speed slider from 42 back up to 47-49.

CPU Hands in the Post will help the CPU players to catch or hold onto the ball inside the paint.

If you want the Human player to reduce being stripped then it should go up for the Human player not the CPU.

Lovin the game. Despite a few bugs here and there, it plays a solid game of basketball. The motion offense is great, I love using it. The game definitely rewards you more if you run plays/motion offense as opposed to just running up the court and shooting. It feels like college hoops. Presentation is beyond awesome.
The tempo thing from last year is back and it once again is successful.
Can't wait to dive into Dynasty mode...but it's so hard to pick who I want to go with lol.
Varsity seems to be the way to go, with some slider tweaks in fatigue, fouls and a few other areas.
Solid game. I recommend it.

You guys are making me jealous, I've managed to play a few games but I've been so set on working on updating the rosters (SEC and ACC finished with accurate names and hometowns) and coaches (just finished all of them and updated their look to be more accurate).

I have to say one of the biggest blunders in the default EA rosters that I've seen thus far is Kenny Boynton, he's only a 61 overall! Dude should be up near 80 overall. I've seen a few other bloated (Perry Stevenson of UK, should be in the low-mid 70's) and underrated (again, can't get over Kenny Boynton).

But I have to say, I have absolutely love this game thus far and I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I'm a huge 2K homer but this game does it for me.

I couldn't pick either. I eventually just set the option to where I could only pick from the teams that offered me a job, and then I chose randomly until I picked one of the teams with "high" difficulty. I ended up with Harvard. I'm 5-6 and I'm loving it.

when u guys say in air collision slider helps with less contact animation suction. are u talking about the in air foul slider?
