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

-Definitely agree on AI Brick Wall effectiveness being lowered. It's ridiculous seeing players with HOF pick Dodgers being stuck on screens and giving up up looks. Also increase the effectiveness of Pick dodger badge. It use to be great in 2k15. Then they nerfed it last 2 iterations. Because even with badges pops up still get stuck in animations. That would go a long way in improving perimeter defense.
-Decrease AI 3pt percentage/attempts. I see too many players under 70 3pt being able to make 3s. Like I played on Raptors in MC, with DeRozan he would attempt(plays ran for him) 7-12 3pt shots a game. In real life this year, he only attempts 1.7 3-pointers a game. I understand if it is a few seconds on clock, but most shouldn't be taking low percentage shots.
-Badges not having stronger impact than ratings. I like the idea of badges separating players with close ratings. But at same time, it feels like you have to have badges just to do certain things. You can have 90+ 3pt, but without 3pt badges, you would shoot poorly. But can have HOF badges with 75-80 rating , but shoot lights out.
-Maybe next year, users not getting stuck in certain animations. Mainly when it comes in ball defense. I understand Ankle breaker badge. But that should mainly effect AI, not users. Like I was guarding AI PG, I was doing a good job of staying in front of him. Then he does one move, and my player automatically moves out position and give up open shot.

It's the game.

Only way I get around the super long load times is make a drink, go bathroom, or leave 2k open and put my PS on rest mode.

Loading on 2k is amazingly slow.

Definitely the game.

It is so infuriating to have to sprint back like a moron after made baskets and switch to 3 different players to keep the turbo abusers from getting a wide open shot. Those 2 fixes would satisfy me.

Underrated post.

I think these are easy fixes and would make the whole experience of the game 100% better.

Additionally, being able to break out of celebration animations.

I have a heart attack if I take the lead with 8 seconds left coz my players are all jumping around while the ball is already being thrown in bounds and they're still at half court.

I love the immersion it brings, but my poor heart can't take that sort of stress, and it is also easily fixable, I can break out of celebrations in Pro-Am.

Well since all the play for pay tournaments are over could 2K remove all of the automatic movements (forced dragging of my player to the corner 3pt line ond the auto post-up animation when driving into the lane).

You load up the game and get stuck at the screen with the loading ball icon which takes FOREVER sometimes.... Once that finishes, you click on the player you want to use, but notice there is no loading percentage in the bottom right corner when trying to get to your court, so you have to restart your game. Back to the spinning ball icon but this time it takes even longer so you quit out to the menu and decide screw it i'll clear my reserve space. That's a whole other issue in itself. Then you realize you have spent almost an hour just trying to play one game. This has been my experience on Xbox as of late.

Well...I have had none of the slow loading issues mentioned here so I'm not sure how it could be the game in general but whatever. I'm on PS4 BTW.

The problem with threads like this is people keep requesting more and more major things until it basically just turns into a giant wish list that couldn't possibly be implemented in a patch, let alone by 2K18.

It would help if 2K let us know the scope of what they are looking to change, e.g if it's just altering gameplay sliders to be better so as not for us to get our hopes up.
