Only thing I usually adjust is the shooting sliders for shot percentages. Since the latest patches shooting then it will definitely be back to the drawing board once the patch DL. Each patch has made me completely start over. So yes, it has been 6 different sets of sliders. Just when you find the right mix, something else changes.

I'll adjust as usual but the Patrick steward meme is exactly how I feel.

The funny part since the beginning is this: there's nothing wrong with the shooting! It's the defense, fastbreaks and other crap that needs to be addressed. Offense out of the box until now has always been good regardless of how many updates they do. Offense is fine. Fix the damn defense and fastbreaks

On a good note: played 2 games last night of NBA Today. Might be a placebo but the AI doesn't have those superhuman speed bursts and on a fastbreak it's not bumper cars anymore but you still can't throw lobs. I did 2 in a game last night and that's like finding a needle in a haystack type of thing.

I will play some games later to see if it's the same. I liked what I saw last night. 2 games isn't enough for me. Will play more NBA Today games.

At this point, I don't think the defense CAN be fixed this year, hence all of the offensive hits. A lot of that has to do with the defensive ratings, though, and the bad and sluggish animations that come with low defense ratings.

You nailed it! Also, teams need to play like their ratings too. If you're ranked 30th in everything you shouldn't play elite defense or hit every shot known to man. Both have been issues I can't stand. Too many players that are ranked low play like stars and it's not realistic at all.

My running joke right now (well Aron Baynes has been for 2 years) is the way the AI plays with Aaron Brooks he would be a strong 6th man candidate. Aron Baynes plays like prime Ewing in the recent 2K games. It's unacceptable to me that these type of players play like this on a game but are not close to being this good in real life even in D-League or in a rec.

Probably be on patch #8 by the time we get these patch notes.

I hate to admit it but looks like it might end up being this way.

It's ridiculous on here if you don't care for offline you're an "cheeser who doesn't like true SIM basketball"
Or if you like art you don't care about "gameplay".
Can we just try to respect everyone's preference?

thats not what they meant. Its just clear body types will not be updated until next cycle. There are more pressing issues in the game yet yall cry about the smallest things smh.

I don't know if it's just me, but are people really using the defensive coaching settings and the regular sliders to help them customize the game to their liking?

I find playing defense very enjoyable so enjoyable I hope that as of now for me their's not anymore patches specifically for Defense in the near future. ...Is it perfect, nope but I customized each game according to my strength and weaknesses. ...

My advice would be use the sliders they definitely work....

Good job 2k!!!!!!!

2k/VC caters too much for Online scrub community who yells the loudest and who gives... 2k extra cash. This starts to look very FIFA like, where FIFA caters for FUT crowd a lot, so changing gameplay to suit FUT players and Offline Single Players? Well, they have to cope with it (aka shove it guys, you don't earn us more monahhhhh).

Seriously, 7 patches in and we still have generic Kuzminskas face and hair style? Westbrook hair style not updated since forever? Body types being worse then they were in 2k16 (there was more variety to them), kits wrong for many teams...

I do get that for most gameplay should come first, but ffs it's 2016 people. Gaming days changed. We CAN demand PROPER and FINISHED product. Hell, PES 2017 adds updated player faces to the game, FIFA can do it too. 2K is just LAZY. Also 7GB patch without graphics in it is barbaric size.

Simple gameplay fix they did takes 100MB at most and that's the size PC users get of gameplay patches (100-200MB).

Why PS4 has to download 7.5GB worth of junk I don't know!!
And there you have Operation Sports members, 2K is just lazy. SMH, when developers stop coming here, remember posts like this one by info0!

The problem I noticed so far is that the updated is tied up with the new Raptors alternate court, thus using an older roster doesn't allow you to play in this court once you select the blue Huskies uniform that will now activate this particular court. I was under the impression that the uniforms, shoes, and hopefully the new courts too, would be separated than the updated rosters. Making editing rosters useless or vice versa.

Only thing I can hope for that I know is a longshot is better movement/control on my guy on D and not to be literally pulled in different directions by 2K even while D assist is on 0. Just don't understand why I have to fight the game for control of myself.

Please for the love of God fix that 2k developers. It's super annoying especially when trying to stick to a sharpshooter but instead I'm getting pulled into the paint. It still happens on manual contest, not as much but I can still tell my player is being controlled. And I only notice this in pro am walk on. It doesn't happen to me on team up or park.

So raptors new court for huskies uniforms only works with newest roster update.

You are right that this game has many more problems to fix than just models but it seems to most that editing body types would prove to be one of the easier things they could change..lol
Well when you pay for a game with licensed players I mean yeh I kind of want them to look accurate.

I believe the patches are big because each patch contains everything from the previous patch/patches. They haven't gone down in size yet have they?

Yeah, these files aren't stacking. It's basically replacing/overwriting the previous title update files. AFAIK. I wouldn't go quoting my post on this matter, but that's always been my understanding of the way it works.
 
# 179 redsfan4life @ 12/07/16 05:14 PM
So are they just not gonna release patch notes then?
 
# 180 Wangchung91 @ 12/07/16 05:25 PM
If this alt raptors court is tied to roster updates, but shoes etc still aren't, I'm keeping my current roster. Not a big deal. Anyone notice significant tweaks to offline gameplay?
