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).

You went way back for that one, lol! I swear Anderson was never the same player after that. It was like dude fell off the planet. I actually watched that game.

I think they are done with the patches...personally, as an offline player I'm waiting for that magical tendencies update for the whole league.

Beds has done a great job but I wonder why he stays away form tendencies changes? Did he do any last year?

I just gotta find a way to get myself going in the pro am as an outside SG. I'm starting a lot of games 1-4 or 0-3. Very unfamiliar territory for me. Not complaining tho I enjoy the tougher shooting

Do you always use the raptors? and have you tried HOF Sim? I think SS Sim is the best tho!

Shooting has been tuned again it seems with the update this morning. I really wish they would pick something and stick with it. It's nice to have the ability to change shooting without a patch.....but something delicate like shooting shouldn't change this often.

Definitely feels like %'s have been lowered.

Could tell right off the bat labbing with some shots earlier...

I can't make slightly early FT's with James Harden and I can't make a wide open Green release with Paul George either. Yeah I know someone will tell me green doesn't mean it will go in blah, blah, blah. https://youtu.be/foFAksNsJLg

I feel it has. Not my style make that comment after one game....I'm always in practice so I could feel it, and felt it through a couple games...

All good though, probably won't be confirmed either way....and I'm not the type to do the whining thing about missing, I'll jus have to adjust.....

I went to edit my pro am jerseys and now my accessories no longer match my jerseys . This was fixed in patch 3. Just in case any of you guys were thinking about editing your jerseys

The CPU OBD also seems to have been tuned. I know I can't be the only guy to notice? Maybe b/c I play w/ no slider adj? Lol

Some combo work:

I'd like to know why green releases miss.

I didn't play 2K for the past couple of years so I'm missing some info. I thought a green release meant that the form of the shot is perfect for that situation. So, shouldn't they all go in?

I'm obviously quite wrong on this, but I'd like to know why. Being out of the game for so long means I missed a lot of stuff.

Perfect, thank you.

Gonna test stuff out this morning. I play with default settings so hopefully shooting hasn't changed too much.

Edit: I also feel that they have tweaked the shooting. Harder to hit a shot now. Played 10 games and since I play my league I can keep track of my stats. Shooting about 3% worse over the span of those games.
