NBA 2K15 News Post


NBA 2K15 patch #4, which arrived on March 12th for PlayStation 4 users, is available now for Xbox One users. It weighs in at 2.5 GB.

The patch primarily addresses the shoe issues in the game, more specifically in MyCAREER mode. You can see the workaround here. Once the patch notes are finally released, we will update this post.

Let us know what you are seeing.

UPDATE: The patch notes have been released.
  • Addressed an issue where purchased, created shoes in the MyPLAYER Store would revert to the unpurchased state upon leaving the menu.
  • Upon signing an endorsement deal with a shoe company in MyCAREER, shoes from that brand will once again be wearable by your MyPLAYER.
  • (XB1) Online games will no longer disconnect during gameplay when one or more users had minimized the title and returned while sitting on the Team Select screen prior to playing.
  • Made a number of improvements to the player progression/regression systems that drive player ratings in MyGM/MyLEAGUE/MyCAREER.
  • Fixed a rare case where the user team would trade for the upcoming pick mid-draft (MyGM/MyLEAGUE), but the team that traded away the pick would retain the rights to the player.
  • Fixed an issue where some users were unable to access specific Online Leagues.
  • Removed “auto-hesitation” dribble animations that played when driving near defenders. Smoothed out the sprint to jog transition in the back court.
  • Tuned shot percentages for a more obvious distinction between open and covered shots. Slight increase to contact dunk frequency for high level dunkers.
  • Corrected an issue in MyTEAM where improved player badges were not appearing in the correct color when viewing a head-to-head game. The correct badge level with appropriate gameplay adjustments are now being made.
  • The ‘Bruiser’ and ‘Hardened’ badges will now unlock properly in MyCAREER when the appropriate conditions are met.
  • Fixed a rare case where some users would occasionally see the title hang during the series of legal screens at the start of the game.
  • (XB1) Corrected an issue where Park Chat through the My NBA 2K15 app would not work for some users.
  • (XB1) Fixed an issue where a user’s gamertag would not update in the Roster Creator interface when the gamertag was changed outside of the title.

NOTE: All patch fixes will work in your existing game mode saves.

It says all patch fixes will work in your existing game mode saves? I thought to have the progression/regression fixed, you needed to start completely over? I am hoping it applies to existing MyCareers.

Is the shot glitch in the X1 patch too?

What is this ???

This might be what is causing the PS4 disconnects during online ranked matches ?? This was not in the PS4 notes.
This would happen in team up if u dashed during player selection

Glitched shots were the abundant number of players unable to achieve a perfect release on SS or HOF. They didn't really mention it here but I thought they added that for XB1 and PS4

Oh ok. That has nothing to do with ranked head to head matches.

Oh, yeah. I know PS4 players said it's fixed, so I am sure it's fixed on X1.

Why didn't they scan Tarik Black's face? There are plenty of more players in the league without a facescan too.

The challenge of HOF Sim is ruined with easy shooting . guess we wait till 2k16

I don't know what Mike was thinking with this shooting. Seems like someone would've found it was too easy across all difficulty levels.

I don't know how much it cost or how tough the process is to make another patch for the shooting, but I am hoping it gets fixed or it'll be a longggg wait till October.

2K should be able to tune the game like Madden without a patch. I don't know if that would have fixed the problem or it's something that needs a patch.

It's ridiculous man.

They have to release another patch. They either cap all perfect release chances to a certain FG% or they use real stats to rate each player based off how they shoot in real life contested, vs. open and that also has cap rating based off how they shoot in those situations. I think that would mean a new roster rating categories would be needed

I feel sorry for the My Park/Rec users. I will agree that the shooting fix should had only been applied to Ranked and League games. User were already using maxed out players and using easy shooting forms to begin with on the MyPlayer modes.

I like it for the online ranked games. However, after playing the smoother handling and less animation driven game, I think I would have accepted the challenge of keeping the pre-patch shooting, but just changing the percentages on open and contested shots.

Minus the higher FG%, the game plays perfect and feels more "natural" to me for online ranked games.

To the online ranked players, what's your opinion on the rebounding and rebounding animations?
 
# 35 DblocW @ 04/01/15 04:13 PM
wassup community....i agree with alot of things posted here....

what got me irritated is its April 1st......game came out in October of 2014...so after struggling to play this game i now have to go back and relearn timings etc...in 6 more months 2k16 gonna be out and gonna probably have yet another learning curve...which in turn going to be another hot topic.i hope that isnt the case but we shall see...i have played one online lg game and was rather pissed off, but my opponent was happy as heck cause he couldn't get green shots with Nick Young since we started months ago. so it has helped...back to the gym i go. thx for reading..

Yes! I can comfortably run a play for West and Hibbert and feel that I genuinely have a chance of scoring an actual bucket with a post-up move.

omg, i love this game!!!

I love how open jumpers get a better grade now, now its fun to run plays cause it will benefit you, pre patch no matter how open you were, most of the time it wont fall, now when youre open its most likely to go in..

Im holding my online opp to 30% or lower shooting now since noone ever runs play to free their man up...

This game is addicting now.

This 100 percent. Game isn't the same anymore with the whole shooting changes. Shots were never "glitched" as people have said, which led to 2K to change the shooting on green releases. Patch 3 the amount of green releases in a game was perfect. Patch 4 if you are open for a mid range shot, it is a green release no matter who it is shooting it.

Exactly, why would they change it? To please the 20% of 2K users who complained that they couldn't make a shot?

Well in patch 3, playing in the Jordan rec, 99% of mid range shots were green to begin with.

They should have made shooting harder, not easier. I have yet to have a park game were I've missed a wide open 3. I'm averaging like 9 points a game now, most of those from behind the arc. Haven't played in the rec yet, so I can't comment on how easy it is to shoot there.
