NBA 2K16 News Post


NBA 2K16 patch #4 is available for PlayStation 4, weighing in at 2.4GB. The same patch is scheduled to be released for PC and Xbox One very soon. Once they release, we will update this post.

UPDATE: Patch #4 is available for PC and Xbox One now.

Check out the patch notes below and let us know what you are seeing!

GENERAL
  • Addressed a hang that can occur when editing/applying tattoos in Edit Player.
  • Resolved a bug where one or more users in a co-op game would lose control of their player at some point during the game.
  • Fixed a disconnect issue that some users were seeing during online games.
  • (PC) Fixed a corruption issue where some users were experiencing hangs, missing art assets, and infinite loads. Please ensure that your virus scanning software (e.g. Avast) whitelists your Steam folder/directory. This is required for new content to properly download and install.
  • Closed a loophole where the pause timer would stop counting down when sitting in the ‘Report Image’ flow.
  • Improved the user interface when applying contracts to players in MyTEAM by removing the display of how many contracts the player would have IF the current card was applied.
  • Fixed a case where the user accepting an online invite would sometimes skip the position selection screen in the way into matchmaking.
  • Headwear should now properly unequip when attempting to do so from within the MyPARK Apparel section of the store.
  • The player portrait will now update when a new user is signed in on the main menu via the account picker.
  • A number of other optimizations and enhancements have been made to improve the user experience.
GAMEPLAY
  • Teammate free throw celebration/interaction behaviors have been corrected.
  • Slightly tuned down the frequency of ball collisions.
  • Fixed an issue that led to a temporary loss of user control on possession changes while in the 2K Cam.
  • Tuned down the frequency of missed alley-oop and putback dunks when open.
  • Fixed an issue that allowed high rated post players to shoot post fadeaway 3's at a high percentage.
MyCAREER/MyPARK/MyCOURT
  • Fixed a rare issue where the game would hang when Doris Burke interviews your MyPLAYER at the end of the first half and/or at the end of the game.
  • The correct records and rep levels will now be shown for the players on the MyPARK loading screen.
  • Corrected the wall and floor art for the San Antonio Spurs theme in MyCOURT.
  • Fixed a case where some purchased shoes were not properly appearing on the shoe racks in MyCOURT.
MyGM/MyLEAGUE
  • Resolved a hang that could occur many, many years into MyGM when entering the offseason.
  • Generated players will now wear the correct color socks for away games.
  • Fixed an issue where generated players were getting their free throw animations randomized every offseason.
  • The Strengths/Weaknesses screen in Team Comparison should now be functioning properly once again.
NOTE: All patch fixes will work in your existing game mode saves (unless specifically noted otherwise).

Did they correct Pro-Am lineup issues?

I'm a 6 10 SF and i play with shorter SF's like 6'8 but it won't put me in the PF spot. Or if we have a computer on our team, it will put me at the 3 rather than the 4.

and also a side question, ive tried lowering down sliders, do you know how i can get better shooting percentages im almost at a 60% clip superstar custom sliders,even lowered success rates
I need to play more first. Im playing the lakers with the bucks (nba today) so i dont have a ton of slashers trying to eat me up but I want to get an x1 to play 2k because im not in love with the DS4 and sports games.

Anyway so far its cool, feels a bit more smoothed out to me, but you guys be the judge. Some guys are quick twich and some of the older guys have stronger stone hands so they dont move around like that... thats one of those personal feel things.

Not seeing all the blow bys though

I have no idea what youre doing to get 60%. Up the CPU defensive awareness. it will take away some of your window for making mistakes on offense

One more question for you guys--How is your cpu teammate transition d playing? Any instances of your cpu teammates not picking up opponents leading to easy buckets?

I havent seen a single one in this half yet where my guy is out of bounds or the lakers are getting leak baskets.

Small sample size, but I'm satisfied so far.
CPU D is better? im already scoring at a high clip as ive said before, id still like a challenge to score superstar sim,

Also the CPU being able to just run through your defender sometimes as if your invisible, no contact, is that still there?

I saw some good transition D from the cpu. But it was only 1 fast break, so the sample size is tiny.

thanks for the response sir, im honestly not sure, i do get alot of fastbreak points, and easy dunks, , later on when they take that away i do alot of drive and kick......by no means am i saying im that good of a player, its just been too easy for me to score in 2k16.

Let us know if you still see some transition buckets from both user/cpu, wouldnt want that to be completely gone

Smh. They keep addressing the losing control of your player as a 2K cam issue and that its only when the ball change possessions.

It's happening on broadcast as well and it's not just happening after change of possessions. But that's a time you can definitely pinpoint when it will happen.

Hopefully, the fix they made also fixes the issue overall anyways.

Still nothing about "clunky" player movement...ahh well IF my thumbsticks break only then will I go bananas...

Well I remember Mike talking about that, in that thread about the losing control thing. You should check it out

Can anyone verify if this issue has been resolved. Mainly the ProAm Walk On issue where the MyCourt leader will make it in the locker room but the follower gets stuck/ hung at 99% black screen.

Downloading mine now. Nervous.
 
# 31 bigmike0077 @ 12/15/15 04:20 PM
anyone else who has it, let us know how you feel about the player movement on offense on defense, if its smooth or clunky
 
# 32 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 12/15/15 04:21 PM
Don't know if this is a placebo but as big man in mycareer I'm moving a lot more responsive defensively . Feels a lot better .
 
# 33 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 12/15/15 04:25 PM
Not a placebo . I'm not stuttering and moving up the floor all clunky . Also I haven't loss the ball as much.

Excellent. Now get a buddy and try out the 2 person from MyCourt ProAm Walk On issue. I'm dying to know. Thanks in advance.

After free throw transition is still pretty bad, hit two FTs and the other team inbounded and scored within 4 seconds

I've been too busy with CHoops 08 to play this, but I'll give it a try this weekend again.

Your AI teammates def D up a bit better. I saw one bad rotation by Draymond, but it wasn't something that happened on a consistent basis. I don't feel the need to switch to someone to play responsible D.

I'm eager to see how that plays out in MyCareer later on today.

1 criticism is that I saw the ball teleport thru Faried's body when I drove w/ Steph. It would be nice if it wasn't in the game, but it is. What you gonna do tho, ya know? I'm not gonna harp on that.

It didn't work for us but I'm having some REALLY BAD connectivity issues right now. My internet keeps timing out. So idk if that's fixed.
