NBA 2K13 Patch 1.02 Released, Details Included, Post Your Impressions Here (PS3, 360)

[johnnyg713]

this patch puts this game over the top imo... I stopped playing because I couldn't stand all the offensive rebounding and lack of contact in the paint. Not only that, defense is MUCH easier to play. This game really feels like 2k11 and i'm absolutely loving it. Thank you 2k

Anybody know if they fixed the glitched achievements that wouldn't unlock?

[SLOYAROLE]

Can he just do this:

A) Create his MyPLAYER (Matt Parker) how he wants him to look.

B) Create a MyCAREER with the Matt Parker from step [A] and be sure to name that file something like "SG Matt" or something. Play through the showcase and whatnot until he's drafted and on a team.

C) After steps [A] and [b] are done, go back to the main screen and edit the MyPLAYER's name to... let's say... Matthew Parker. Change his looks and whatever else.

D) Now start a new MyCAREER with the -now- Matthew Parker and make him a Power Forward. Be sure to name this file "PF Matthew" or something. Play through the showcase and whatnot until he's drafted and on a team.

E) Repeat step [C] for a third guy named Matty Parks.

F) SLOYAROLE = Win???

I haven't tried this. I only need one MyCAREER but this seems like it would work.

So he makes his MyPlayer to look somewhat like him, and gives him that name, and makes him a bald black man. Now, he makes a MyCareer file, and makes the player a 6'6" SG--named Matt Parker, a bald black man. He has fun, but one day down the line, he decides to try something different. He wants to be a center this time, with a different name and skin tone to distinguish him from the SG. So he makes a second MyCareer file, and...his name is just plain stuck as Matt Parker, and his look is stuck as a bald black man. He can't change it at the creation screen. He can change position, accessories, play style, height, and everything else about them...but not the name and race. I get that you want to stop hackers and cheaters--that's totally fine. But sometimes we like to play out what-if scenarios with our MyPlayers, you know? It's a huge hassle when we have to always go back to the MyPlayer edit screen and change his name and look for whenever we want to play a file--especially since we can't change our MyCareer Social Media handle in-game. It's stuck as whatever we chose for it at the start of our rookie year. Like, we know you couldn't retain the rights to, say, Julius Erving--that's sad, but fine, it's a business and some sacrifices need to be made, some player likenesses chosen over others. But that shouldn't stop us consumers from doing the next-best thing through MyCareer, looking to see if that legend could still dominate basketball today...

Seriously. All I want is to be able to stay on the Bulls. But every time I ask for a contract extension my xbox freezes and I have to reset it manually. I got hit with so many bugs in this game. Did you get the all-star break bugs or the auto sim?

Im loving how the spam steals are reach in fouls now and passes down the court are going out of bounds. Should of played like this out the box.

[FINCANEfan]

this is how the game is supposed to play. i just completed a game in my association as the heat (93 OVR) versus the spurs (92 OVR). had them up by 9 going into the 4th quarter (86-77) and lost by 2 101-99. it was my fault with some late mistakes. i held them to just 12 points in the 2nd quarter. Rebound margin was only +3 spurs. both put up around 80 shots. Game was played on Superstar/Simulation 12 min.

Just played an online game And there were errant short and long passes. I personally like the way they handle double team passing. Passes are tipped and it seems like the longer u hold the ball in a double team the harder it is to pass accuratley. There were a lot of turnovers even with the inability to reach without drawing a foul. Also, on poor ball handlers if you body up on them you fan get a steal like 2k11.

Rebounding finally matters. Teams will be penalized for going small without a rebounder on the floor. They corrected the rebounding without killing teams who really can offensive rebound. Blocking is slightly better, but its still hard to block a shot with the block button. All my blocks come off of left trigger.
