NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now on PS4, Soon For Xbox One - Patch Notes Included

[bo.jangles344]

I can't believe the over exaggeration on here.

You lose the ball EVERY play? STOP DRIVING INTO TRAFFIC! I just started a new career and my PG is like a 64 right now and after the patch just about every TO i get is my fault. I can play D against the CPU with zero bars on my defense. And on top of that, lower rated defenders on my team are making good rotations and we're playing solid D.

You guys need to calm down.

i honestly am not seeing these pick and roll complaints...obviously theres video evidence so there is a disconnect somewhere, but its just not happening over here.

Let's understand the difference between a real game play issue, and lack of defense on our part. In the NBA guys do get dunked on and guys do hit 3s. In this game I feel it's hard to hit contested 3s so if u play ur man tight defense u should be able to defend the 3 ball.

I actually play all my defense manually as opposed to most and I play defense well. CPU Assistance in Controller Settings is on 0. The 3pt and offense is too easy now the setting just needed a minor tweak but they appear to have increased it too much. I haven't even seen the ball pop out of the rim animation since the patch. Its turned into a speed ball game up the court. In "PlayNow" you don't need to run plays to get open anymore you could run in circles and on missed shots fastbreak everything. Teams are all shooting a high percentage inside without real inside scorers.

Getting a rebound in the paint can be that way sometimes which is realistic since its crowded down there But guys trying to dribble by 2 defenders and in traffic are supposed to lose the ball. That setting is perfect, if 2k fixes that they mild as well call it NBA Jam!!

Is this happening only in my career?

I'm playing the Pistons/ Clippers game form last night and when I say roll, Drummond rolls....

Also, if I'm losing the ball, I understand why I lost it.....I like it because it feels like the CPU is governed by the same rule....

PnR's work great, but you must be a chess player, 2 to maybe 3 steps ahead. Know your rollers tendencies as well as the weak side help i.e. the rotator. See the floor before you strart the PnR. Check your wing and corner, once you see the rotation kick it out, and when your wing and corner start making shots the rotator will be hesitant to rotate so hard giving you that second to convert on the roll.

This. I played a bit of park yesterday to see what the fuss was about (Ok, I won't lie. The Patch notes had me Salivating). Me and the home jump into the first game. Between both squads there were about 17 turn overs. I'm not exaggerating either. Second game? We had cut our number from 8, to 4. Third Game, down to about 2.

You have to adjust now. You can still get to the rim, but you are more likely to lose the ball in heavy traffic. That's OK. Most players don't weave through traffic like that in real life. Hell, Tony Parker is the only one who does that on a consistent basis. And it's still do able, you just have to be able to Predict where each opponent is going before they get there and adjust dribbles on the fly.

This is hard, not everyone will be able to do it. Nor everyone should be able to do it. I mean users when I say this. When parker does this IRL, it's an insane combination of handles, court vision, and anticipation.

Other notes: I missed 3 wide open lay ups. This is because my inside scoring was/is at 3. It definitely felt like there's no "I can leave this unattended, it's a lay up, 2k will bail me out". Driving lay ups were a 50/50. But I didn't get buckets I used to. I'll see what happens after I run career to finish attribute min/maxing.

Mids are toned down. My threes felt toned down. I was shooting 40% from mid, about 33% from 3. This is fine also.

Last note: I'm seeing different posterizer animations again. I've only seen the 3 two hand dunks before, now I'm seeing one handers, and VICIOUS looking things. Finally. Thank you.
