Does this mean I can expect a few pleasant surprises that are not mentioned in the patch notes? I like pleasant surprises...

How can people can applaud 2k for a patch that hasn't fixed the catch up fast break bug or the association stats?

It's not a bug. A bug would be if you were on a fast break and your player fell through the floor. With the increased passing velocity it seems fast break catchup has been improved

We can applaud cause other things were fixed. One little thing doesn't make everything else irrelevant.

Well I played about 6-7 team up games online and this is what I noticed with the new patch 1.04.

Team up online (patch 1.04) PS3

pros: Connecting online in team up is a lot faster and it connects almost instantly to 6 to 10 players right away. I played several matches with up to 6 to 10 players and it ran very well without much lag. I was however disconnected a couple times with a network error. Controls feel more responsive and Passing in team up is much better overall as well. As far as onball defense goes, I was able to stay in front of my man one on one much easier and play better onball D. Team up seems to flow a lot better now and feels more balanced. I noticed that players fatigue more than they did before.

Cons: There seems to be some bugs still present with team up. Calling defensive plays with PG in Team Up is missing from last year. There is the annoying random inbounds bug, where you just cant get the ball inbounds and either end up with a 5 second call or you have to call a time out. Another Issue is in random team up games when you call a time out the substitution screens are gone at the top of the screen and so are the on the fly sub screen menu and you cant make any subs through the whole game.(this happened twice to me) I also noticed several full court inbounds passes which end up in an easy score. I was in a game where this was abused several times in one game. This needs to be toned down. Also the grading system for team up still shows most players with an F as their average grade. I do sometimes see a C grade from time to time. Now where it shows your average team up stats ie. points per game etc...seems to be way off. Now this one really gets me... I create a locker room to play teamup online with 3 or 4 friends so we can play on the same team together, only to randomly get separated and placed on the other team. This needs to be fixed.

I really hope they come out with another patch to fix a few more issues. All in all I am happy with 1.4 patch, but I expected more issues to be resolved.

Is the 1-3-1 zone the new fad now? Since the patch I have played 3 games online and all 3 opponents have used this defence.
