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).

I'll tell you. Green doesn't mean it will go in.

It's irritating, but I've been missing a good amount of wide open midrange greens. We knew about this before the game dropped. They go in most of the time though.

After patch4,

I can't finish MyLeague Online Playoff Games on 12mn quarters.

I can finish 10mn quarters w/o any problems but if the playoffs serie is 7 game after first 2 games of the series in each i cant finish, all my games drop afterwards in that round if i advance to next round again i can finish first 2 games than nada nothing all games starts dropping. If i make it 10mn quarters then i can finish or 8-6 whatever.

Things i've tried on my end are;

- Modem back to factory settings
- Initialize Ps4 wiped all data reinstalled everything
- Isp signal etc.

None nothing worked i can't play my beloved Online MyLeague Playoffs Games..

Have you tried 2k Support ataman?

They helped me with a PNO issue I had earlier in the year...

Hey man mind if i ask what's PNO ?

I must have opened up 4 different tickets trying to explain every detail and every workaround i've tried etc. i'm now at the edge of throwing my ps4 other than this i'm w/o solution.

Is it possible they banned my psn or ip or smt from 2k server side i don't know, i can't think of anything else but it's too strange that 7 game playoff series i can finish first 2 in each round but afterwards none.. If it's a 3 game series no games can be finished on 12mn q's.

I can finish 10-8-6 mn quarters w/o problems.

It's not on my end i've tried my best giving the utmost effort that i shouldn't give to a game to be able to finish game smfh..

Awfully disturbing and a wate of my F. precious time.

I'm sorry but i'm really mad!

Yeaa exactly kinda like the same in MyLeague Online mode! Which i play religiously only this mode, i assume you were playing a lot PNO as well.

It happens the very same way all the time in the very same sequences like first of all always on the second halves and whenever i drop it starts right after foul shots leading to numerous time expiring 14-13-12-11 and then fast skipping some and voila connection drops. Sometimes sim sometimes don't.

To add to what i'm having in terms my games dropping on 2nd halves in MyLeague Online Playoffs 7 Game Series and after 2nd games. So you know the situation.

In order to really specify the situation it's now clear that it's all 2k dropping the ball!!

Yesterday against the very same person i was able to finish one 2OT Regular Season 12mn MyLeague Online game. And then another 12mn Regular Season. Right after these we got in to another Playoffs 7 Game Series and 3rd Game and it dropped the very same way and then to 4th game of the 7 game series and dropped again. So 2k i'm expecting a real answer and solution now...

Don't know why this game feels different every other time I play it. Right now there is way too much bouncing off of other players and the skating around is way worse than it was at one point in the game. The less skating part was one of the best things I loved when this game came out.

Exactly what i'm feeling, every other day the game feels different. Some hiccups here and there, some days the game is all clunky and there happens 1,5 sec delays, some days it's too fast.. Etc. etc...

I think that ever since the game is connected to servers 7/24 then we started feeling all these, you know.

Also there haven't been any answer from 2k on my issue about not being able to finish MyLeague Online Playoff games...

SS sim 12 min mygm... More scripted AI outcomes... This has happen to me 5 times every time the games are close. 2K has the game coded to this outcome way to much overtop lol .... Tack on they made javel McGee foul over the back on a non rebound shot lol.

2k if you read this listen up.... Every game to come down to the wire. It is OK to have some games were you can get up by 10 to 15 points and maintained a lead and blow some teams out. Long the line someone has convinced you guys that in order for your game to be great every basketball game versus the CPU to come down to the wire there today this is a realistic and untrue please change this. ... Btw he makes the freethrows and I lose the game in overtimehttps://vimeo.com/152000696

Why does shot blocking never work for big men. They barley get off the ground. If I have a high verticle and high shot blocking why won't they jump higher

# 615 Jttwin1 @ 01/18/16 09:57 PM
Mc or ml. My athletic pf just won't really jump. If I do get blocked shots it's with his elbow and looks so unnatural

It's the connection quality man! Don't understand this as speed, it's about quality of your bandwith and config.

Yea i know it must sound really silly but it's true i'm sorry.. I've done excessive testing and sampling, no bs i've done a lot i know exactly what you mean and it's bcs the way your connection is configured on your side, on your isp side, on your router config etc.

After all my testings i know for a fact both offline/online, 2k is a huge game and really heavy on server side and really needs good bandwith and no packet loss and perfect config on router and signal every time.

I wonder what the difference is between PNO and Pro Am regarding the post game....

I usually destroy dudes with TD in the post....even got a angry message saying "all you can do it post up"

Stop putting Iman Shumoert on Tim Duncan idiot

Hey 24th the standing layup for a lot of big men in game can go 94+ . Even average big men have a standing layup of 88-90. In mycareer the highest your standing layup can go IS 90.

Right now Tim Duncan has a standing layup of 94. Aldridge and Duncan have very good post ratings and are going against centers who aren't always a 94 in post defense.

Also the defender doesn't even have to contest your shot on time. If he's 7'3 maxed height/wingspan/defense and all the defensive badges you will miss even if you got him beat; just because he's in the area.

There aren't as many centers that huge with that kind of defensive power. Also not as many centers have pick pocket gold where you can get stripped as easily
