Yes I was floor general before I got traded to the Mavs... Now that I'm on the Mavs it wont allow me to call plays.
Then just this morning it says that I was demoted from floor general, blazzy, blazzy, blah that whole thing.
It never happened pre-patch

I have some serious gripes with the patch.

My player mode is now nearly unplayable unless you are a PG.

For now, the PG on my team will literally shoot a 3 every time up court over and over and over and over.....

My PG is shooting 5% from the 3pt line and shoots 9-15 per game(12 min quarters).

When he doesn't do that we run a play EVERY SINGLE POSSESSION. Running plays really is awesome but when you have to stand in one spot for half the game because your not really involved in this play it takes away a lot of the fun factor of it.

Other than the my player issues, the online versus matches are still unplayable to me.

I love how now the shooting is more consistent when moving between offline and online shooting, but there are still many lingering issues.

3pt shooting online is still a major issue. It's nearly impossible to drop more than a handful of threes in a game even if every shot taken is wide open.

Close out times to the 3pt line are still insane and you will regularly see centers running out to the 3pt line to easily swat away shots.

Zones still have no consequence. You can run 1-3-1 or 2-3 all game and will never even have to worry about open shooters because of insane close outs and inept 3pt shooting.

I cannot bring myself to play versus matches online anymore. Just not an enjoyable experience. Sure cherry picking has been toned down quite a bit, but still cheeser paradise.

patch v1.2 did all of this.......

the whole issue with the charging not being called at appropiate timing and the less bumping and the down lower smaller defender dont change shots like a taller defender fixes.....

(VISUAL CONCEPTS)

Do I need to start my season over after the patch is applied?

# 325 RumbleCard @ 11/25/10 01:49 PM

Overall I like the patch. I still have not drawn a charge though. What's the secret to drawing charges?

Apparently no.

Ever since I got the patch, the custom arena music seems to be overlapping a lot more. If someone gets fouled, the upcourt music that was playing continues to play. Then, that delays the buzzer if a player gets subbed in, and the sound that plays in some arenas when you make a free throw.

BTW:

This may have already been said, but 20 second timeout interface is now in PS3.

It's definitely different. With the shooting animations I chose for my PG in My Player, using the same release timing from before now results in a late release.

I have not yet downloaded the patch... should I?

I say read through the impressions here and decide for yourself. I say yes, but ultimately it's your decision. Also, if you want to log in and play online you'll need the new patch.

# 333 amedawg00 @ 11/25/10 03:09 PM

If you would've told me that I had to live with these over powered dunks at the expense of the patch forcing me to relearn everyone's jump shot due to the alteration of the timings, I would have chosen the former.

Oh well, I guess the re playability of the game has been enhanced in what seems like an entirely different game pre patch. Back to the lab!

# 334 Po Pimp @ 11/25/10 03:13 PM

Do they ever release second patches?

Anyway, I like that the game just feels easier to play and not in a cheap way.

One thing I was hoping was fixed was that during signature highlights, they ONLY show baskets. I was hoping they would at least add assists. Oh well...

I'm assuming being that's it's 1.2 that the recent patch they released was the second one. So yes.

# 336 jfsolo @ 11/25/10 03:19 PM

I'm glad I had the patience to just put the game on the shelf until the patch dropped. I don't have to relearn any aspects of the game, I can just go forward with how it plays now, finally starting my Association up.

I haven't played the game in several weeks, so maybe my memory is faulty, but directional passing seems really tight now. I can actually use it 90% of the time instead of using icon passing 90% of the time.

As someone who doesn't play online or doesn't care about My Player, I'm ecstatic about this patch.

Yup. I played 5 games online and put the game on the shelf.

I've been playing 2k since the first release. I've learned since this game has come to the next generation of video game systems that the game is unplayable until at least the first real patch.

I feel as though I have some control over my player now. Not the control from 2k8 but it's better.

# 338 phenom1990 @ 11/25/10 04:12 PM

My online connection before the patch would be inconsistent but now any game I play disconnects once the first whistle is blown. Is anyone else having this issue? All of the games were unranked.

# 339 NumberOneRB @ 11/25/10 04:57 PM

I think the shooting difficulty is a bit ridiculous. I think this was a problem prior to this latest patch. I've been shooting with Derrick Rose in Practice Mode for a bit now and out of the 30 or so shots I have taken where I released the shot at the apex of his jump, I have probably been told that I shot it correctly only 5 or so times.

I think that is the main reason why many of us are seeing such low percentage games on the Sim settings. It doesn't appear to matter if you release the shot at the proper apex of the player's jump, because that is not always the preferred point in which to release the shot. I can't tell you how frustrating it is to know that a basic game shooting mechanic we have known for so many years (releasing shots at the peak of a player's jump) has appeared to be compromised.

so which is it, you have to start over or no? I don't even have a My Player but the freeze that happens when you go to "quit association" back to the main menu still happens every time. Ronnie had tweeted to me that this was going to be addressed in the patch but so far everyone seems to still be complaining about it. I really hope I dont have to start ALL my associations over just for this to work
