NBA 2K17 patch 1.03 was released last night for PlayStation 4 users. Here are the official patch notes. The patch is coming soon for Xbox One users, but no date has been given.

UPDATE: (10-3) Xbox One patch is available now, weighing in at 4.7GB.

  • Addressed an issue where some pre-order users were unable to see the ’92 Dream Team on the Play Now team select menu.
GAMEPLAY
  • Substitutions made during a timeout will now immediately apply, rather than waiting for the next dead ball.
  • Reduced the frequency of lob passes and increased pass speeds across the board.
  • Fixed the 5-Second Closely Guarded rule in Euroleague-rules games such that the violation is only called when the ball carrier is holding the ball (as opposed to dribbling the ball).
MyPARK/2K PRO-AM
  • Voice chatting has been added to the Pro-Am Team Arena.
  • As your Pro-Am Team levels up, you will now begin to see your Sponsors’ logos appearing on your custom arena walls!

  • The Turbo meter will now flash red when depleted in MyPARK/Pro-Am games.
  • Travelling as a team to Parks and Pro-Am games should now be a lot smoother and more reliable.

  • More reliable search capabilities when searching for players in the Free Agency feature of Pro-Am.

  • Fixed an issue where the overall rating of another player would display as 55 when viewing their player card during a shootaround.
  • MyPARK intro animations will now be shown with a greater variety when more than one is equipped.
MyCAREER/MyCOURT
  • Corrected a case where users would have an optional practice and a game overlapping on a single day, resulting in the user being forced to simulate to the next game.
  • Proper controls for “Orange Juice” are now shown in the Controls menu in the in-game pause menu.
  • The Ankle Breaker badge should now properly unlock when the appropriate conditions are met.
  • Attributes earned exclusively through off-court events (e.g. free throw shooting, stamina, etc.) should now properly be saved to your MyPLAYER once earned.
  • Coach Brubaker will no longer critique you for missing team practices while you are injured.
  • When playing as a Point Guard, the playcalling menu will no longer be brought up on-screen when attempting to use “Orange Juice” controls with the d-pad.
  • Fixed an issue where your MyPLAYER would sometimes appear out of focus during a post-game interview with the studio crew.
MyGM/MyLEAGUE
  • Removed an errant dialog during MyGM setup that prevented more than one custom-built team from being added to the league at time of league creation.
  • Fixed an issue in MyLEAGUE Online where loaded custom draft classes were not being preserved.
  • User vetoes are now respected in MyGM when your owner approaches you regarding the proposed rule changes for the upcoming season. If you don’t want a rule enacted, say no. If you are interested in the rule, say yes and it will go up for vote with the league.
  • When using a downloaded Team Design, the commentators will no longer refer to the team by an incorrect name.
  • Team Cards will now list team stats for the last 24 years, rather than the current and last season it showed previously. The more information, the better!
  • Fixed an issue where the Advanced Rotations menu was not properly updating following a trade, which could lead to a hang in some cases.
  • Players should now sign for normal contract values when the salary cap rule is turned off.
  • Commentary and crowd sounds will now be heard when jumping into a game that was initiated with SimCast.
  • Playoff stats will now be used in the Team Comparison and Player Comparison menus during the Playoffs (previously used regular season stats).
Many other small bug fixes and adjustments were also made, game-wide.

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

Just played 2 more games on HOF... defenders are more stickier after the patch. I am not getting the riding animations etc. Seems like it is even difficult to get past bigs. I played with Portland and Lillard had problems getting past his defenders.

Man 7GB! Another all night download. I wasnt that far in, although I liked how MyPlayer was made. 6'2" playmaker SG. Im staying with that. My camera just switched in one game to Broadcast (no not the right button practice switch,) and I tried the default button, tried other views, didn't feel good with any of them. So I hate to restart, but I will I guess. At least I got a feel before college now (skiped 2 yearsof 2k cause the my player teamates playing bad thing.) Now they play normal even with you. And the story doesnt seem to effect games. So I was liking it till the odd camera swith, I could not get back, even by pressing reset to default.

I'm not seeing defenders anticipate as much as they were play off certain guys and let them shoot and miss etc.. I'm not seeing the same variety with the ball physics either. Players will throw bullet passes and it's not the same. They should have left it as is and just fixed the actual bugs and not adjusted the gameplay or at least improved it vs catering to peoples complaints.. Still an improvement from past years but they listened to people who were wrong.

Makes we wonder if their patch people are different than the actual developers. I hope if they are they don't touch it anymore.

It's also more difficult to pull of certain dribble moves where defenders more just lock onto you now. Pre patch it was fun pulling off dribble moves and sometimes you still wouldn't make the shot or get the layup. I was seeing all sorts of stuff that was just very realistic.

I'm not seeing the same variety and different fouls either that were very realistic. I also get called for fouls now if i breath on anyone where before i could really pester ball handlers and the ball would bounce around and I wouldnt get the steal and steal stats were still very accurate. Diving for loose balls etc..

This game was pretty much perfect to me out of the box minus a few bugs. It's still good but they messed it up. I was seeing so much variety of stuff happening before. Long passes and players being beaten down the other end and fumbled passes and just a lot of stuff.
Completely agree, game out of the box played a better game of basketball Imo. Does anyone know how I would go about uninstalling the patch? Is it as simple as deleting the app off of my dashboard and reinstalling?

I have the digital download, not sure I'd that makes any difference.

"The Ankle Breaker badge should now properly unlock when the appropriate conditions are met."

Does this mean we no longer have to pass to get it?

Again less points in the paint for me 16 and they had 32. Great game overall. You can actually shoot now realistically if you have space. I shot 41 percent but big shots and crazy play by isaiah working the clock and beating his man and getting to the line in overtime. Felt like the real thing. Got up by 6 on a steal and fastbreak and 1 at the other end bradley to crowder. Bulls would not go away and Butler got space and 1 at the other end. Won by 4. Amir was airballing free throws pre patch. They seem to have fixed that although kind of liked it. They may have fixed it too much. He had to hit free throws in ot and he hit them though easily. Isaiah sealed it at the line after another stop.

i need to stop listening to people and being nice. First 4 games post patch i was being nice and listening to people and I adjusted the last 2. You can do it too.

Crazy defensive game like the bulls and celtics should be. Moving the ball around and just making smart adjustments and when to go for steals. Watching their stars and Wade and Butler. Butler shot good but held him enough and Wade didn't and I won.

Seems to me like there are just balancing issues for some people and people aren't patient and willing to get better. There are some things that need adjusting but they are trying to get the right balance. Seems pretty realistic.

I was able to bother them this game and players were missing shots. The cpu is harder to hold down but i was bothering them pretty good this game and just aware. It was difficult before so it's not a huge difference. Shooting is just slightly easier for both sides, passes are faster and defenses are tighter and more tickey tack on fouls etc. Seems like they adjusted certain things and its better in ways and worse in others.

Best game I've played so far though and it was post patch. Aldridge is there at the half and at end of game but not at the start for some reason.


What difficulty?

I've only played a game and a quarter of another game where I intervened, so it's a small sample size, but shooting percentages do seem higher. I had them just about perfect before and I saw around a 10% increase in my games last night.... which was a quarter against the Nets and a game against the Spurs. I can handle the Spurs shooting 56% against me and say that they just had a great game, but seeing the Nets shooting like the Warriors was tough. Hopefully, I can correct this with sliders, but it's frustrating since I was getting nice results before. Also, I would like to see the cpu slow down quite a bit. Although, this was a problem pre-patch as well.

One other negative is my play calling menu seemed to disappear more. This happened every now and them pre-patch, but happened at least twice as much post patch. Basically, when I hit L1 to bring up the play menu it immediately disappears.

I did like that commentary/crowd works after using simcast now and that the substitutions during timeouts work and adjustments stick.... I just wished that shooting percentages would go back to the way they were. Although, like I said it could have been a bad game. Maybe I'll warm up to it after some more playtime and adjustments.

Not to my knowledge. We still don't have word when the Xbox patch will hit, so I highly suspect the PC patch will hit after the Xbox -- by at least 2-3 days, if not a week, based on the past.

Just have to sit back and wait. *sigh*

Im hearing that jerseys and ACE updates won't work for older rosters is that correct?
 
# 180 GisherJohn24 @ 09/29/16 01:36 PM
Anyone having the issue of your ai defender PF or C letting in the opponents big guys run under the basket, and instead of getting in front of him he gets behind him and them he fouls him. He attempts to make the block but he's always late getting to his guy and called for the foul. To alleviate this I usually try to take control of my C and guard the basket dilligently
