If there is a way to lessen the grind, that would be appreciated. I have enough VC to make 2 more players but I dread playing mycareer and doing time consuming practices over and over.

Maybe a blocked shot towards a Rim Protector Badge on "HOF" can be worth 3(NOT STATISTICALLY) as opposed to it being worth 1 on rookie. It would make more people play on harder difficulties and learn what actually works when you go to Walk On instead of shooting weird shots because they pull it off in "Rookie" MyCareer. Just a thought.

Make the shot meter a shot release meter so we all can learn our shots better or at least give us the option to make the meter a Release Meter or Success Meter. Right now it doesn't tell you when you've released it perfectly everytime because you may not have taken a good shot and it will just fill up all white. I can't practice my ONLINE jumper in walk on because of the ball hogs and low IQs of the Kyrie Currys and the Carmelo Bryants.

Picks, Speed Boost, PnR Maestro, Brick Wall and mabey the high three point percentages have probably already been spoken of heavily so I won't add to it.

Can we patch in audio for pro am and walk on?

HOF limitless range and Brickwall are crazy effective. Very arcadey . Pick dodger and charge card could use a boost .

They seriously need to dump those HOF badges. There was absolutely no need for a 4th badge tier. What a ridiculous idea.

All I ask for is to reduce effectiveness for brick wall, slightly increase light contested shots, faster loading times and oh... fix the dribbling!!!!

The auto post animations, slow responsiveness all of it! It was perfect day 1. I was actually able to dribble with my 6'5 Shot Creator pretty well. I still can but it's not as fluid as it once was.

# 126 keshunleon @ 04/06/17 02:13 PM

Please please fix the sliders and setting reseting every time 2K server acts up. I waste so much time redoing settings just to play.

# 127 TalenT @ 04/06/17 03:35 PM

These steal animations need to be toned down! The steal button is some people's only line of defense. And there's really no rhyme or reason to how some of the animations play out. What good is protect dribble if you can still be ripped? Steals should be situational first and then based on ratings after that.

# 128 ohvitser12 @ 04/06/17 03:45 PM

Anyone has any idea ,when the patch will be available?Next week or longer?

# 129 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 04/06/17 03:53 PM

I'm shocked that people are asking for more contested shots to go in .

# 130 tatlopuyo @ 04/06/17 03:57 PM

Fix the effin body types.

# 131 JohnTaylor @ 04/06/17 06:08 PM

A patch that gives us those Park Attribute so we don't deal with park cancer anymore.

I'm not. That's the reason the game is how it is now. Heavy offense and low to no defense.

# 133 feliciasme @ 04/06/17 06:44 PM

What is the point of HOF pick dodger if my LDD still falls like he's been shot, EVERYTIME? Why are my ankles getting broken when I'm not moving at all and holding L2, especially when im playing with my LDD?

Can we please lower the effectiveness of brickwall and ankle breaker. It should be a rare occasion to cause someone to fall to the ground yet it's happening 10000x a game in pro am.

Can the defensive badges get a boost please?

I could go on and mention the fouls for someone trying to bulldoze their way through you and going out of bounds. Or the shooting fouls when I stand my ground and don't allow someone an easy dunk/layup.

Basically, I just want to be able to play defense especially with my LDD, some of those badges aren't easy to get.

# 134 Queannn @ 04/06/17 07:12 PM

Please give us the ability to watch CPU-CPU & our own games in MYGM even if it means no VC. During playoffs I want to watch the other games because I want to see how they play for enjoyment purposes. Also would like to watch my team play against the computer so I can see how they play when I'm not controlling them, and I'm a college student so it helps getting thru seasons when I can watch my team play and jump in for crucial moments.
Please 2K !

I said this 5 pages ago, and it still applies.

90% of the features you guys are requesting have NO chance of happening in a patch to fix gameplay.

You'll be lucky to see any of them incorporated in the next 2 years, let alone the final patch.

Focus on realistic gameplay tweaks and bug fixes or this thread is pointless.

I'd love to see the "RETURN TO THE MENU TO UPDATE" pop-up totally removed.

Why do I have to exit my offline game to remove this? Its nonsensical.

I wouldn't mind if it was something important, but do I really need a constant remind to return to the menu so you can tell me "ANIMATIONS ARE 20% off today!" I understand there are gameplay updates and roster adjustments, but why not give me a big list of those changes instead? I'd love to see the adjustments you are making to player attributes.

But really, make me leave the actual game play so you can try to sell me some VC? If I care about buying animations I will know if they are 20% off because I will be trying to buy them.

Most of the stuff in this thread are multiple cycle tasks, but I feel like its gotta be possible to get this yellow warning off my screen every time I wake my PS4 out of rest mode.

Seriously. Thanks for letting me know but let it disappear after a second. I'll back out when I want to. Right now its far too big and disruptive when your already in a game.

Looks like the patch is dropping tomorrow.

arite. I turned on 2k to look at some sliders. I think some of the problems can be fixed w/ sliders. A lot of them can't, obviously, but I would like to see...

Vertical globally edited -15 or more.

I know nobody wants to see player speed go down, but I think that might need to be tuned a bit. However, non-essential.

The real issue is that they have contact sliders. I feel that the contact sliders for just about everything need to be tuned down. I want to see driving, inside, on ball physicality tuned down drastically.

My next suggestion would be trickier because I don't know how it works, but basically something like this: make it so that the contact 'ability' of a defensive player approaches what it is now as defensive ratings and strength rise.

So, for instance, the best mixture of on ball D and strength would get the best on ball physicality. I'd hope it is already like this, but I mean, tune down the 'average' a lot so that non-defensive players who are not strong cannot body you well. Of course, taking into account offensive stats would be nice as well, str especially and maybe quickness, weighted a bit to the defensive side.

Then on driving and inside shot physicality, make it related to low post D and str. It's not the most optimal but it seems fair given the tools we have.

This will majorly nerf defense in an already low D game, for sure, and more extreme fixes will be needed next year, but I think it'll make it play better, more realism, more 'real offense' as well as make defensive players like LDD/PP/GC into something more worthwhile. Since the max of other players is only 20 below, it has to curve at the top.

When I turned down all of those sliders, I saw lay up animations that kind of looked real, real looking fouls, and not that same contact animation over and over again.

Even if you want to leave on ball d the way it is (and I would argue DON'T) the inside fixes alone would change the game to something more realistic. Sure inside scoring will be 'too easy', but shooting is 'too easy' and it'll level it out.

Might even find scoring goes down because people will be shooting from many different spots now that they don't have to worry about all of this unrealistic contact.

Edit: ah patch nvm. haha.

I would like to see the Dribbling brought back to its release state, and I would like to be able to edit the NBA players accessories, such as add/remove headbands, add/remove Under Armour shirts. It seems some of these players are stuck like this.
