Can anyone who is a regular member on these forums confirm this? I find this hard to believe. 2 people confirmed it and that usually makes me believe it after that, but I took a glance at their join dates and posts and both joined Sept/Oct and have under 100 posts.
EDIT: Can someone test this just using 2 minute quarters and on rookie mode so it'll be easier to get a tie game? I would do this experiment, but PS3 has not recieved the patch.
Ae you serious!? No overtime? Is this just online? Because I could care less about online. Ok so nothing had been done about the dynasty/sim/mpg stats glitch? Nothing has beeen done about the matchups beeing broken? And now we have no OT?! This is ridiculous! How can EA get away with this?! Shouldn't some people be losing their jobs? I lost a job on my 1st day for showing up 15 min late. And EA allows this stuff to happen year after year. I love the way this game plays but... So your telling me I HAVE to live with Kobe avg 27 mpg? I also have to live with default matchups because If I change them me and the cpu leave players WIDE open? Oh and to top it all off if I tie a game at the end of regulation, it's over. How does that even add up in the standings? That's not to even mention all the online glitches I've heard about! I mean what needs to be done to get people to do their jobs right. I give up.... rant over... Thanks EA.
I really hope this isn't true. Hopefully is it a 2KFB making it up.
If there is no OT, I don't want to D/L the patch.
I will tell you this DEFT you will be missing out by not Dling the patch. I do at the same time understand your reason for not getting it and waiting. I've only heard 2 people say it does not work so I would give it another day for more conformation
I would agree with you, but if you don't DL the patch, you don't get updated rosters, DNA, etc... And you can't play online.
In this case you are damned if you do and don't.
All that said, I have yet to come even close to an OT game.
Knowing my luck, it will happen on all-star default as I am going for my first ever win on that level.
I don't play online so that's cool with me. But, I do want Dynamic Season, DNA, Rosters, etc. Hopefully, The 10 Live Crew can work it out. I have respect for those guys.
Besides the overtime thing, this game feels so much smoother. Players move so much better not all herky jerky. It feels like a different game, it even looks like graphics are better. And the ball not falling out your hands while in the post so fast is the best improvement in imo. And im seeing way more animations I never seem before, they don't seem to be so generic. And there seems to be more variety in the cut scenes. And the computer getting into its offence earlier is nice. I hated how cpu would sit there and just dribble for 8 or 9 sec. To be honest I didn't even like the game till this patch.
I hope we can get OT in dynasty. Can anyone confirm this? I'll try to test it late tonight but... that seems ahrd to pull off. Still doen't do anything for matchups and mpg both being broke. Ok so I haven't tested the mpg/stats issue post patch. I'll try that too. I really hope this game end sup being good this year. The gameplay is great but some of the other issues are really testing my patience. I can deal with the matchups by subbing a player into the appropriate position ven thoug I have to stop play to do that. But I can't get around the stats slitch and if there is in fact no OT that'll be it for me EA.
Like most of the changes, but I've noticed that finishing size up moves isn't as successful as before, which is a good and bad thing. Case in point: Lately I've been using the Lakers to combat the Cavs and Magic fans, I used to be able to use KB on an iso at the top and size my defender up, drive to the lane and it felt like it was more often than not a successful shot attempt. This isn't something I attempted every possession, only when needed.
Now, it seems harder to drive by the defense after sizing up, and when done correctly, I'm noticing ALOT of collision animations, but there are no fouls being called and the shot isn't dropping like before. They said they fixed the fouls, but I haven't noticed it in the 3 games I've played online since the DL.
Also haven't noticed any change in the substitution menus, except that I now have to press the directional buttons numerous times before they highlight something else.

It wouldn't be hard to pull off play 2 minute quarter games on rookie and only score if the CPU scores. You can score at will with players like Wade, Bryant, James, etc.
i've been trying to test it some more but as someone said, it's hard to do. is anyone else getting this strange scenario besides me and one other person?

Play now is no problem there is overtime but I cant say whats ups with dynasty issue, I had friends play earlier in a online game and it ended in tie, the best way to get a tie is to in 4th qrt put it on 2 player and tie the score up ( cpu cant play if no one is using the controller) do it in dynasty see what happens.
in my first game after the patch, the cpu was blocking EVERYTHING. i'm not sure if it's possibly due to due to the smoother animation transitions or what, but the suns had 9 blocks on me (celtics) in the first half on pro difficulty, and that was with my block slider all the way down. steve nash (!) ended the half with 20 points, 6 assists and 3 blocks. grant hill had 3 and amare had 3. i'm certain they would have ended the game with close to 20 blocks. before the patch, both teams would end with 2-4 blocks/game with both slliders turned down a few notches. anyone else seeing this?
