Afterwards, I expected the 3rd patch to smooth over the gameplay and really help the fluidity of the overall product. But they, instead, focused on more cosmetic alterations. With the game playing so poorly right now, I am finding myself less and less patient and giving those like MrMBrown more and more credence.

Understood. And again, my opinion my be slightly biased because I just got the game and haven't experienced the issues everyone is having. My bigger concern - is this a sign of things to come? Can't imagine it's any easier than last gen to turn around the next year's iteration in less than one year. All the more reason IMO to release yearly updates with graphical improvements, updated rosters, and maybe a new mode every now and then for $40 instead of packaging a brand new game for $60.

Yes - tried deleting and reinstalling the game, worked for the rest of that night. This morning, back to default clothing, no NBA highlights, and I assume being unable to connect to friends lockers/park

I've probably wasted about 5 hours of my life now trying to get this game to work/connect

Freezing Continued: Could also be a bad disk. I'd exchange as well if the above steps do not work.

I tried two other things and got my clothes to work again. One thing I did was instead of using wireless I went directly into my modem. The second thing I did was signed into my profile before booting the game. So far it's been working.

The clothes thing I have seen from time to time...does not effect gameplay on the court but it is slightly annoying but it has always worked itself out. Without a patch needing to get installed. I have a feeling when that happens the servers have heavy traffic or they are working on the servers. Again good support point (as a few have mentioned) on having the files saved locally vs online would fix that issue...I would think.

I bet they are getting a ton of traffic right now. If it worked last night it will work once the servers settle down. Guessing but it makes sense. Games do not break just because you powered it off and you are referencing everything that is network based.

Not likely for me- I only got them to work by deleting and reinstalling my gamertag (but too much of a hassle to do that every time), so having it work as a one off is nothing new for me. My guess is their server has trouble with some corrupted gamertags/consoles.

The clothes not showing aren't a huge deal to me. But for me it is another symptom, with the main issue being unable to play with friends (lockers or park). NBA highlights not working are another symptom (as far as I can tell)

Edit: tried wired as phat old man suggested- clothing worked, highlights didn't, so I guess they're not symptoms of the same issue (though they worked after backing out of the park, so maybe they're ally did just need time acquiring).

I've put another switch in now, so can leave my 360 and one both on wired connections. Will update if my problems are fixed (hopefully), or not.

Second edit: wired connection seems to have solved my problems (sans corrupted saves). Been over a day now and works as it should (well input lag is still pretty bad online too)
