If the mods could possibly update the thread title/original post to include PC in it, that would be appreciated. A few of my brethren are wandering in the wilderness trying to determine if we've even gotten the patch (the last patch notes on the Steam patch are from Patch 1.04, back in October).

I have it on PC and PS4 and it is def not the same...the Bucks camera was fixed, but in the pc version nothing changed...etc...cpu offense sets quicker now on ps4, pc version no changes...

PS4 patch was 7gigs...

Check steam update history...still says patch 1.04 was the latest.

The Steam page is notorious for being ignored by 2K, we don't get any information there that's not available somewhere else well before 2K gets around to updating Steam.

If you check this here you'll see that the buildID has been changed, which means a new patch was submitted to Steam and pushed out. I'm fairly certain we're at 1.06 but confirmation is hard to come across via websites -- PC patches also tend to be much, much smaller than console ones, so the size is not indicative of whether the patch hit or not.

Other users within the NBA 2K17 Steam discussion area are confirming they received a 136MB patch and are seeing some changes listed in the 1.06 Patch notes, so I *think* it's out but I'm not sure, as are others. Still, the 136MB patch hitting the same day that Patch 1.06 hits for PS4 and XboxOne seems to indicate that it's the PC's Patch 1.06.

But, when it comes to PC, it's guesswork with 2K sometimes. *shrug*

With that said, still happy to see a lot more instances like this instead of being randomly knocked back or stumbling https://vimeo.com/192776453

Yeah, that looks pretty close to ideal for me as far as driving contact. You shouldn't have to go all Rucker Park to turn the corner on someone when you have a skilled slasher. My biggest issue has been the unpredictability of the controls during the bumping animations. It just feels like I can't do anything unless I have a significant amount of space between me and the defender.

Very much looking forward to playing this later, been on the fence about trading the game in for weeks. Glad I waited it out.

For the generated rookies in MyLeague/MyGM, do we still have to edit some of their tendencies? and what about their progression and regression?

This is definitely the biggest change for me. Before the patch I thought it was just an issue on my part. I assumed i either wasn't taking the right angle or just not driving at an appropriate time, glad to see it was an issue that was effecting others.

It didn't make sense to me that great ball handlers or bigger wingman, like Lebron, would be picking up their dribble just because a defender cut them off. I can understand that this will happen from time to time, both in the game and real life, but most players aren't picking up their dribble everytime they get bumped. Perhaps worst of all was the delay that wouldn't allow you to pass or shoot until the animation played out. I'd like to see them allow you to pass or shoot at any point during the animation with varying results based on the player's skill level. Someone like Lebron should still be able to pass accurately out of such a situation but a less skilled player might throw a wild pass.

But I read your comment and seen a big man shooting crazy so I decided to record a few of his shots. Some of the shots is silly that he's smacking them and was doing it all game IF he got the ball. The thing that kills me and shows me its OP the most is the nerve all these dudes have to take these silly shots. It's just telling me they know it's OP so they go take whatever shot if they have a little space lol. Two in a row: (http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/KingJrocc23/video/23803085) (http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/KingJrocc23/video/23803100) I am glad they did something about moving screens but wish they turned it up some more because it's still these screens all game. Also improve how I defend them. Look at my guy, it's like I am in a pinball machine getting bump every which way lol. That would also help combat the shooting this year.

Again, I say that ridiculous stepback hop step move needs to be either removed or make the person forced to pick up their dribble or shoot after they do it once. NO big man in NBA history does that, and it just looks stupid in general.

They need to call that multiple hop step crap a travel or double dribble, the separation it creates and still allows a stand still shot grade is moronic.

lol you answered your own question. People who buy the game but don't spend another dime after that are not priority #1. They don't buy VC or MyTeam packs or anything like that so why focus on them when they won't increase your profit margins?

Do I agree with the practice? Who cares? But I do respect the business hustle behind it

Not trying to start a war or anything but a lot of the things are being fixed in these patches are for the better of everyone not just online guys and the roster guy is not the guy who does the gameplay so gameplay fixes (for problems that affect the whole game) have nothing to do with you not getting a roster update. And we MyCareer/Park/Pro-Am guys have been very neglected too, it takes them months to fix things that are borderline game breaking exploits (Moving Screen, the inbounds steal glitch, speed boosting, the full court laser cherry pick pass every possession, etc.) and last year we didn't even get a fix to any of our problems until the game wide patch to clean up RTTF.
