NBA 2K16 News Post


A new patch for the PC version of NBA 2K16 is available now. Check out the details below.

GENERAL
  • Support added for custom keyboard configurations.
  • Optimization improvements that increase performance across all configurations.
  • Addressed an issue where some users would notice commentary cutting out during gameplay.
  • Resolved frame rate stuttering at start of games/between quarters on moderate to high-end systems.
  • Addressed an issue where some users would see a black screen in the Edit Arena and Edit Uniform menus when ‘Special Effects’ was turned off.
  • New Video Settings option ‘Media People Detail Level’ added; reducing this will help performance on low-end and mid-range graphics cards.
  • Corrected missing/incorrect player icons when using a non-Xbox 360 controller.
  • Fixed a rare hang that could occur when attempting to fast-forward 2KTV.
  • Fixed a rare driver crash on DirectX 10.0 and DirectX 10.1 graphics cards.
  • Help text added to Video Settings menu.
  • Additional detail setting now available for Shader Detail in the Video Settings menu.
  • Fixed super sampling not working when Letterbox (formerly called Aspect Ratio Correction) was disabled.
  • The following Video Settings options should now provide the expected results when modified: Color Correction, Depth of Field, Screen Space Ambient Occlusion, Bloom, and Volumetric Effects.
  • Resolved a rare case where the game would hang when entering/exiting the Tattoo editor when customizing the tattoos on your MyPLAYER.
  • Addressed an issue on the main menu where the title would freeze for a period of time before proceeding to the selected action (e.g. loading a MyCAREER save).
  • Players will no longer slide/skate when pressing the block button during an inbound state. It was funny while it lasted.
  • Tuned crowd excitement and intensity on made buzzer beaters.
  • Resolved a case where certain players (e.g. Kristaps Porzingis) would have their hairstyle change slightly when zooming in the camera very close in replay.
MyPARK/2K PRO-AM
  • Pro-Am Team Play has been added to the game! You can now play as a full team in your custom-built arenas.
  • Addressed a number of matchmaking issues that inhibited users from playing in Pro-Am Walk-On games.
  • Fixed an issue where your player would sometimes appear with the incorrect height (if you had more than one MyCAREER save file) when entering MyPARK/Pro-Am from within MyCAREER.
  • Fixed a rare case where the ball would get stuck in the High Roller courts, thus preventing a game from concluding.
  • Improved the animation of the skateboard in MyPARK. If you don’t have this, get it. You can move between courts faster than those that are on-foot!
  • 2K Beats will now continue to play after finishing a game in MyPARK.
MyCAREER/MyCOURT
  • Fixed an issue where some users were unable to join their friends’ MyCOURTs.
  • Fixed an issue where the host user was unable to send MyCOURT invites after leaving MyPARK/Pro-Am with a squad.
  • Addressed a number of issues with Accolades not unlocking at the appropriate time within MyCAREER.
  • Pressing the back button will no longer cause the game to hang from the MyCAREER NEXT menu after being eliminated from the playoffs.
MyGM/MyLEAGUE
  • Numerous tuning and code enhancements to improve simulated player stats.
  • Playoff games (within a series) can no longer be played out of order in MyLEAGUE Online.
  • Found and fixed a case where visiting certain submenus with no head coach would cause the game to hang.
  • Fans of relocated/rebranded teams will no longer hold up signs referencing the previous identity of the team.
  • Fixed a rare hang that could occur when the ticker referenced a previous game result where all of the players on the team have since been traded.
  • Selecting to load a custom draft class will no longer cause a game hang in the MyGM offseason if you had previously been fired during that same offseason.
NOTE: All patch fixes will work in your existing game mode saves.

Waiting on any news about patch #6 on pc . I hope it arrives shortly.

Me too. Today, I got some vague answer from 2K support telling me that they think this patch will come to PC in a few months.

Few months or weeks? NBA2k17 will be released in a few months...
 
# 127 pavko99 @ 05/06/16 06:37 AM
Unfortunately, they said few months. But it could be shorter, it was a very vague answer, they just said that PC patches usually come later and expect this one to come later too.

This is another thing I don't get. Typically for games PC patches come first since there's no 1st party approval process, or at the latest they're released at the same time. This is the only game I own where PC is continually last of the bunch and/or not even acknowledged in official announcements.

Sadly a few months will be in August, about a month before the new game comes out. Wouldn't surprise me if they don't make 2k17 for the PC.

LD2K is trolling us at this point. Whenever someone asks about the patch for PC, he replies to a tweet that came right after the PC tweet.

That's because you won't be seeing one.

Everybody knows that.

Seeing one what? An actual response? A patch?

Both.........

# 135 badazzleroybrown @ 05/11/16 12:55 AM
i bought this game for both pc and for the xbox one
i got to say both versions suck when it comes to smooth gameplay versus 16
its hard to play defense when your controlled player does not move
the animations are terrible and the game seems scripted to much.

this is coming from a guy who has 2 titan z video cards and the game play is terrible when it comes to running smoothly

No

I mean if you don't get an answer from LD that's usually an indication there is nothing....aka no patch

Nothing to report, nothing coming

Not the first time

Not the first time? There have been other times where we never got a patch? That's discouraging.

We got all updates in 2k15 and 2k16 until this last one.

The official 2K Twitch account replied to a random on the last stream who was requesting something for the One/PS4 versions and said "No love for PC?". However, they didn't reply to my question asking about the patch.

The purpose of patch 6 was to keep the Road to the Finals from devolving into a cheese fest. Since no Road to the Finals for PC no patch 6 for PC. Road to the Finals is NBA 2k's attempt at becoming a legitimate esport. Speed boosting and full court passes became the go to moves of even the best teams and honestly made the game look terrible. I can see why they did it but I just wish they went the extra mile and released it for PC
