Another NBA 2K17 Gameplay Patch is Coming - What Would You Like to See Patched?

[theman824]

I play mostly MyLeague this year.
After so many patches, the most annoying bugs for me are still (not gameplay-relatet though):

1. Substitutions are often not performed as I said they should, so I have to waste another timeout to make the game get it right. Hard to believe that a bug like this would still be in at this point.

2. Everything takes too long during a game. Why do I have to wait untill some commentator finishes his sentence before I can inbound the ball or shoot a free-throw? Or why can't i skip a timeout completely, immediatly, if I do not want to make any changes? I find myself spamming buttons all the time, to try and skip so many things.
I don't have a lot of time, so if i want to play I want to PLAY. Not watch scenes and be forced to wait, wait, wait.

I might think of more later.


Edit (just adding what others have mentioned and I forgot to, but totally agree):
3. Of course, how could i forget the frequent step back jumpers with no defender around by the AI. Good point.

4. Oh yes, and the automatic "covering the basket" on opponent fast breaks, especially usefull when matched up against an all time great 3pt-shooter.

Defense:

On fastbreaks or any transition defense stop dropping the PG in the middle of the paint to stop the layup, he is playing defense on an area not a man . This is destroying my defense, open threes and is messes up my defense rotation.

Fix loss of momentum animations. Examples:

-chase down blocks
-outlet passes (feels like the pass has to complete before I can begin movement)
-close outs

[cthurt]

I just want to be able to drive past my defender without an auto post up animation happening not sure why it hasnt been patched out the game yet

And add another 20 minutes to loading the game?

Player movement on D. Player should be able to stop and not feel like a "semi truck" with sluggish controls.


When running back on Defence that ridiculous "trot" and 180 degree at half speed has got to go. Turing around shouldn't feel so robotic these are NBA players.


CPU double teams. you really should remove the red circles under the players because player shouldn't know its coming! Player should be aware and make a decision based on the players playing D, not a bright circle warning them it's coming.


I believe another member brought up the player running under the hoop to prevent the layup/dunk...leaving player B open to 3pts/mid ranges all day long. and with CPU logic not picking up that assignment makes transition D very stressful.


If these issues are fixed you're on the way to a beautiful basketball game.
Thanks for looking into another patch BTW.

WHY ON EARTH! IS DEANDRE JORDAN SPRINTING to the corner 3

on a 2 on 1 Fastbreak!!!

This is what happens when you watch GSW Highlights, You get Deandre Ready to pop 3s, you get Bigs doing step back three animations from the mid to the 3 point line.

^^^This X1000!

And I think to balance it out they made the fastbreak DEFENSE just as bad. Everybody runs to the paint. Man, looking through this list there's A LOT wrong with this game because I couldn't agree more with all of it.

- Stupid and pointless double teams when a player hasn't even taken a shot in minutes. And along with that, improve the rotations of team mates so one can be open, instead of all of them "magically" making cuts that make no sense so you can't pass it to them properly.

- Unnecessary step-back jumpers by a CPU player whe he is WIDE OPEN for an easy shot. It's especially infuriating when it happens with players that are only catch-and-shoot shooters, but it happens with almost everyone. Even more stupid than double teams.

- Improve the AI defensive logic, especially on (supposedly) good defensive players. It's so frustrating to see people like Jimmy Butler or Justice Young ( 90+ defensive attributes) inexplicably go to the paint and leave players completely open; a few days ago while playing MC, Anthony Morrow nailed at least 3 wide-open threes on that kind of situations

- That stupid play when you make a steal and half a second later the opposite player magically recovers it, usually ending up in a foul and/or a basket. It started to happen really often since last few patches.
