NBA 2K15 Patch #4 Available Now, Primarily Addresses Shoe Issues

[OneDrop]

The new shooting online is awful. MyPark games have turned into 3-point shooting contests. I could hit a good amount of jumpshots pre-patch, now everybody's a shooter. I remember scoring three consecutive three pointers pre-patch and I felt like my shooting game was on fleek that game because it wasn't something that occured a lot until now, people run up, zig zag around and hit every three pointer even if well contested. I hit two perfect releases yesterday with hands in my face, it's just ridiculous.

Not sure but after simulating through a season in a new MyLeague post patch I think they did tweak the regression. Here are ALL the overall rating drops of players under 30 years old after season 1:

JR Smith -1
Ilyasova -1
Shumpert -1
Horford -1
Deng -2
Kidd-Gilchrist -2 (played just 10 games due to injury)
Ty Lawson -1 (injury)
Embiid -2 (injury)
Aaron Gordon -1 (injury)
JJ Hickson -1
George Hill -1
Damjan Rudez -1
Roy Hibbert -1
Paul George -2 (injury)
Omer Asik -2
Jodie Meeks -2
Gerald Green -2
Wilson Chandley -1
Amir Johnson -1
Seraphin -1
Ariza -1
Josh Smith -3 (Torn Achilles)
Jeremy Lamb -2 (played 1 game)
Nikola Pekovic -2
Nicolas Batum -4 (Torn MCL)

That is EVERYBODY in MyLeague who regressed that was under 30 years old. Only a few guys above 30 y/o lossed more than 3 points (Tim Duncan, Pau Gasol, David Lee, Kevin Martin, Amare Stoudemire, Chris Anderson, Tony Allen, Turkoglu, Varejao, G. Wallace, Nene, Taj, and Zaza)

Regression seems to be fixed.

If you're referring to the park in MyPark, then I have no clue what game you've been playing the past 6 months because the park has and will always be like that.

I think the new patch is great, and I'll stand by that. The shoes are fixed, the rest of the badges are fixed, the game runs smoother than ever at the Rec, defensive movements feel better, and the shooting feels great.

The only thing I could mention negatively would be the man-to-man defensive icons, they seem to be a little haywire. But I will take the high road and just assume that we all need to be bumping off our man better and play help defense/switch.

Bottom line: the game just got a little better in my opinion, and I'm totally cool widdat.

If you have qualms with the park/rec based on the new patch, that's fine, but trust me, overall it's better, there's always going to be things/people that just cheese it out because it's an online sports game.

Unfortunately my download took all night (it's done now). Any ranked match head to head impressions ?? Anything changed/tweaked ?

I know they tweaked the gameplay with after the all-star roster update (more blocks, missed dunks etc).

This, basically. Sure, some BS shots are gonna fall, that's what happens in basketball. You can only play good defense and hope it was enough to cause a miss. But it was ridiculous having to go like 3-14 on all wide open shots in some games. If you are successful in getting to the open spots or breaking your man down in order to get open, you should be rewarded with a higher volumes of makes.

No you are rewarded with a open shot attempt. Release, type of shot ,spot on floor and individual shot ratings still matter.

Glad to be able to get Bruiser on both my PF and C.
