Its a lor smoother rarley any lag but the problems that were going before still happen a lot. Sometimes you join a Ranked team up and it will not find 9 other players in a span of 2 minutes. Other times when there are 10 people and the clock hits 0 it freezes and you can still shoot around but it is kinda liek th egame is waiting for someone with a bad connection to quit on there own. THe whole 34 second things happens still when the 34 second clock will go down and then reset it self. Sometimes when i was in the middle of games It would end on us saying that the network connection blah blah blah so then we cant finish the games. SO basically all they did was Add new Camera angles and lessened the lag but there is still some lag sometimes but not a lot. There still work to be done on 5 on 5

Man, the game seems to really play hectic all of a sudden since the patch and I dont like it at all. Im in a game with Washington with only the strength sliders tweaked from what I had pre-patch and Ive already seen many instances where Haywood drove on defenders and took it to the rack, which is unbelievable to me. On a side note, when downloading the patch it doesnt effect my rosters or tendencies that Ive downloaded already and incorporated into my association does it?

don't know if this was mentioned but the quick menu during gameplay now shows how many fouls a player has.

I didnt notice a fix in Jose's jumper ???

Bosh and Bargnani were changed for sure though.

Jose still has that delay that takes too long before he releases the shot.

literally took me 20-25 minutes to find a 5 on 5 game...

Playing in Philly was UNplayable pre-patch due to lag/ choppiness & now it's a bit better but sill choppy @ times.
Anyone else experience this or know a solution?
Thanks.

Court_Vision and everyone else wondering about help D......D Pressure all the way down, Help Defense all the way up from the coaching menu, (not the sliders). The help D is monsterous.

If you cant see it now, you just may not be wanting to see it LOL

Anyone else seeing a ton of airballs now? I mean a ridiculous number. Seems like 1/10 shots are airballs.

as a result of the shot being partially blocked....but not outright

You should watch Corey Maggette shoot threes in real life then... I bet that's why 2k thinks everyone tosses up airballs every other shot.

Go check again, it's definitely different from pre-patch.

Being 360-less and not having played with the patch (until they patch the PC version) I'm not saying you're wrong or right, but typically the first thing you'd want to do after a patch would be reset all of the sliders back to the defaults, then adjust all over again.

# 254 portlandblazer @ 12/04/08 03:32 AM

the dna glitch was not fixed. they said it was addressed but im still getting the occasional default faces but whats worse is now most players face sliders are randomly jumbled. before i would get the random thing about 1 out of 10 times and default 9 of 10 now its the opposite. i know this is very minor to most people but still the dna feature is useless if not even worse.

That is very discouraging. So you've tried creating a brand new CAP from scratch, or Dling a CAP made post patch and it still doesn't give the correct face values?

Really?

I did not have any problem at all finding games the other night. Each time I tried, I got into a game. And I tried at least 5 different times.

I could find a game easily it was actually starting a 5 on 5 game with 10 people is what took too long. There would be times where i would be in the shootaround and only like 4 people have joined so everyone quits before the clock hits 0 or times when 10 actually joined but the countdown freezes at 4 seconds and then people leave. The whole"Waiting for player" crap also still happens

aahh!!! ok so after going back and re-uploading the dna and downloading it again it is working. so only players uploaded after the patch will work correctly. thanks for leading me in the right direction.

I played a game post patch for the first time and it wasnt good. It was kinda wierd my cpu teammates were always covering the wrong man and when I would try to make the switch to stop the mismatch my teamate would follow me to cover the guy im about to cover so then i switched back to the other guy and the cpu would still follow me idk it was just one game iv played so far. I turned down the Help Defense slider all the way down and the mis matches kinda stopped. The team i played scored 105 points but 60 were in the paint and for some reason they were able to dunk just about anything. Fatigue is still terrible on default so it needs to be brought back down to 37-39. I do not know the point of the cpu having a rotation substitute setting since it doesnt work at all so i had to set it to fatigue and finally they subbed out Big Z. The cpu was getting to many calls also. They had 20FTA i only had 7. Ima play another game and see if it has the same results as my first but i dont think Default sliders were fixed at all.
