EDIT: this is for offline as i havent ventured online yet...

From my experiment, that's not the case. Some players you still shoot at the peak of the jumper, some don't.

IMO yes it did.

No more trade value bug, you can now run plays in intra squad scrimmages.

Those were the only 2 bugs I had noticed. I don't sim games. I play every single one (82 games season). So as far as AI logic...I have not seen any really dumb trades at all thus far.
and I am a week away from the trade dealine.


The game is a marvel...go enjoy it.

man, i love how the myplayer plays so far im not freelacing antmore im really play basketball as a team and my teammates are playing and scoring better. I also love the gameplay changes that were made; like going to the hole is more realistic and i love how i can make a pass now without having to be right next to my teammate and passing to him and not getting him doubled, and i like the rebounding and the shot blocking. thank you 2k

I still feel this game was just find out of the box. All that really needed changes IMO were the glitches And bugs, the defensive wall created while driving(seriously why is that still there), and tightening up the controls.

100% agree. But to my delight they made the game even better with the patch and my fear was they would dumb it down....they did not IMO.

please dont make no more changes to the gameplay and the game will be great.

That makes zero sense, in real basketball you want to shoot at the top of your jump but and that is how it was pre patch but now its not that way. That does not make any sense. They ruined shooting with this new patch, they need to go back to the way it was or at least let use choose what gameplay patch we want to use.

my second impression of this patch is not so good....i mean they fixed a lot of things that were broken but all of a sudden defence is a major problem. i played enough games to say that the take charge is still off depending on who ur trying to take a charge from and points in the paint have sky rocketed because guys just seem to run around you and get way with brutally overuse of the turbo button to get to the rim for a dunk..the whole less bumping has made defence just fragile enough to say the least.jumpshots work well for most players but some of them relise a lot now on memory that actually looking to c when the shooter is just about to peek to release the shot by that time the shot is already in the red for late.stepen curry's shot has to b release by memory cause the animation would mislead u to still b holding the shoot button.(u actually release the shot even b4 his hand is a a position to even shot the ball based on the visual of the animation...check it out for yourselve for reference)this kinda penalize a good shooter with i very difficult release IMO
the avoide shot animation is still a problem after a diffender attempt a shot block going for the fake..the shooter still does an avoide animation even if the defender flew by or even if u relocate sometime and then shoot the shooter still does a low percentage fade away avoid contact animation for no reason regarding human input
