NBA 2K15 Patch #4 Available Now, Primarily Addresses Shoe Issues

03:17 PM - March 12, 2015 by Steve_OS

NBA 2K15 patch #4 has been released for PlayStation 4 and PC users. It is not available yet for Xbox One users. The patch primarily addresses the shoe issues in the game, more specifically in MyCAREER mode. You can see the workaround here.

After you download it, let us know what you are seeing. Once 2K releases the patch notes, we will update this post.

UPDATE: (via @Ronnie2K) Another thing addressed last night was fix to deal w/ rare occurrences that led to NBA 2K15 MyPARK rep being stuck. Should no longer happen.

Last game I played, I shot 70% and most of my shots were outside the paint. Now it really feels like you don't need much skill to play this game. The worst thing is I can't fix this with sliders either. I've tried everything and the outcome is the same. I've tried to get rid of the patch by reinstalling the game (PS4), but the teams I play with are my own made so it's crucial for me to keep the created players. Now, after the reinstall the game deleted all my created players, but I have them in a saved roster. Now, the problem I have is after reinstalling the game (without the patch) it won't recognize my MyPlayer account because it won't go online anymore. It has to recognize it if I want to get my roster file back. I click the "connect" button in the main menu, but it does nothing after 10 seconds. So is there any way I can get my players back WITHOUT downloading the patch?

The shooting is way too easy and the speed/quickness of players has increased as well. Sliders should fix this if 2K doesn't.

Wasn't the game 'awful' for you before the patch though?, and before that patch as well?

I play primarily offline. Patch is ok.

I really liked the game pre patch and didn't really have many issues . Seems like my defenders are doing odd slides out of position now....which was a peeve of mine in prior 2k games that I hadn't seen this year so that's a bummer. I'll have to get some more games in though.

Am I the only one that feels the default setting plays a better game then the simulation setting?

I am surprised they released another patch for 2K15. I am just hoping it doesn't affect the shoe workaround or messes up anything else.

# 224 zrohman @ 03/15/15 01:26 PM

In online play h2h I would only get like two greenies a game. So every shot was a roll of the dice. I've played over 70 games with the kings so I'm used to their shots.

It was a little too hard in h2h in my opinion. Now it's a little too easy. Of course it wasn't fully broken before but I feel like it did need a tweak. Now it's just a little too easy

None of the free agents at the end of the season(before the playoffs) were in the offseason free agency, from the mid 70s to players dropped after their rookie season. All gone.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE fix this before 2K16, 2K.

I have been playing more game online and I finally feel rewarded for playing basketball.

The shooting is suspect at times (I have made a few shots with the meter in the red) but overall id say its fairly balanced.

I have played 3 games online where i just do random select. Great games verse randoms so i know v sim heads it will be even more epic battles.

If any PSN league are open lmk...and add me on PSN

Isn't a way to go back to the previous patch? PS4

# 228 NINJAK2 @ 03/15/15 02:43 PM

Some of these patch opinions have me a little worried. I had no problem with the shooting being difficult(I use Sixers so I expect to miss most of my shots). Some of you make it sound like you can make 75% of your jumpshots with your eyes closed now. Don't like the sound of that as I love a challenge(mostly offline player).

Have you guys noticed if they changed any player art such as hawes hair change or Caldwell pope haircut, etc?

# 229 Jrocc23 @ 03/15/15 03:02 PM

I'm very nervous. I am actually enjoying this game a lot gameplay wise besides some issues. But for me, this patch sounds bad. All the negatives I am hearing is things I would hate. Heard a few things that I would like, but I mostly not liking what I am hearing.

I appreciate 2K for coming out with a patch this late though. But it might've been best to wait for 2K16. I doubt we'll get another to fix the issues this one caused.

# 230 MeloNYK7 @ 03/15/15 03:59 PM

But back to the topic at hand. Offline users cant complain com'on u guys have sliders to fix problems. Us online users are just happy and thankful to MIKE WANG for finally giving us a playable game were u can actually hit wide open shots. the game is finally fun again. (I rather my opponent and i make too make shots than have both us shooting 15% from three wide open every game btw)

# 231 IrateDreamer @ 03/15/15 04:07 PM

Don't know if somebody talked about it, and don't really have the time to look through all the pages, but did the patch bring any ''cosmetic'' updates like new player faces, hairstyles etc.?

# 232 capitolrf @ 03/15/15 04:10 PM

My opinion on Patch 4, it basically made you more accountable.

Offensively - Shot timing has been fixed, all shooting forms are now able to get green releases. You are now rewarded for running plays & getting good looks at the rim. So if you're playing an opponent User or CPU and defensive breakdowns occur, you can make them pay. I don't think shooting is easier, just that the defense have to make adjustment that they wasn't making prior to the patch.

Defensively - You now have to play legit defense. No packing the paint, because jumpers were rarely going in. Now you have to pick your poison on what your willing to give up. You now have to defend all aspects of the game or the offense will make you pay.

Game Play - The game runs smoother, most of the unnecessary animations have been removed ( the auto hesi dribble, that happens during P&R or Iso). The game seems faster because you are no longer sucked into an animation which you can't break, there are a few still in the game.

Preference - I mainly play online H2H, HOF/Sim 12m quarters (sometimes Park/Rec) & offline (Quick Game, MyCareer) HOF/Sim. I don't play the other modes because of the difficulty level and I assume it can definitely be a cheese fest playing on a lower setting which it makes it even easier to time shots. Which is why the Park/Rec can seem unreal now with 99 Ovr. running around with all 70+ badges.

My last 2 online league games I'm the Wizards (C2K League - HOF/Sim 12m quarters)

Hornets preferred to protect the paint & let me live on the arc. While Rockets played all around solid defense. All Patch 4 did was make you more accountable for you actions.

# 233 tril @ 03/15/15 05:47 PM

shooting and driving has definitely gotten easier- 2k listened to the majority of folks complaining and they made it easier. 2k always does this. Im just happy they didnt do it with the first 2 patches. This years cycle of NBA is winding down. so if shooting continues to be easy Ill adjust the sliders accordingly.

defense is more responsive, but I do notice some anomalies with the ai teammates. when rotating theyll rotate as a normal player would, but when they go back to their man, the player kind of morphs/skates to their player very quickly and abnormally. at times it ooks like a road runner animation with the players legs.

alot more hard fouls also, players crashing to the floor.

these are the 2/3 things I noticed after 2 games

I still like the game so I cant really complain. and Im offline

Do yourself a huge favor and don't let the OP determine if this patch is worth it or not...

People on this site will always complain so I implore you to find out for yourself, everyone plays this game differently some people play sim bball vs people who think they know what sim is......

You want to have your cake and eat it, without considering any other users of the software. 2k are back in my circle of trust.

# 239 eko718 @ 03/15/15 09:49 PM

Gameplay was at its best imo after patch 3. Seems like the good they did was undone with this patch. I really wish they'd find a way to make tunes to gameplay optional.

It's not just the OP. I have had friends that I know what they are talking about message me on Xbox that has PS4 also and basically are saying the same things. And also some posters on here I used to play with.

I still need to play it myself though, but am pretty sure it'll be like most people are saying.
