One guy used Carmello Anthony and went 9 for 9 from 3 point. He never shot anything but 3's with Melo....and one...I was so in his face I would have been happy with a foul called...and he still freaking made it...and these weren't even green releases. Defense feels mostly the same to me. And the Alley-opp thing seems to be random...I've seen a few that other people tried that were in good positions and had the numbers for some good oops...but the pass was wild or just thrown away...and then I've had guys running down the court from mid court throw alley oops with guys in position to cover them and they go up and get it...it still needs some adjusting...pretty weak how it can be abused. Honestly i feel like I'm playing NBA Jam...it opponent does nothing but shoot 3's or throw alley oops.

second part i meant in road to the playoffs...not domination.

The more I play post patch on HOF sim online, the more I realize that the shooting albeit a bit inflated, is not a game killer by any means.

When u play a terrible user, you will murder them as seen below.



When u play a good user who values defense, meaning they take the time to set up their POE and adjust their defensive settings, and make every effort to contest every shot with the on ball defender (which btw reduces fg%); then you get stats like these below. Again, judge this patch not by the extremes nut by user skill in head to head. I don't mess with offline so I cannot opine on that; plus you offline guys have sliders, something OL and OA heads would kill for.



Both games can be seen on my twitch archives linked in the sig for verification that defense can still be played, even against elite teams and elite 2k players.

Now that they nerfed the hell out of MID and 3PT ratings, is there anything else that you don't like about the patch?

I still have to play a few more games, but there's a strong possibility that this game could dethrone NBA 2K11 as my favorite game for online ranked games

I guess they don't care the league option has been broken since the game was released. We tried again and the games are still not counting. Hope they add/bring back a full league association in NBA 2K16

How is the progression and regression issue looking.What dies it do now.

2k lowered the shooting ratings for most players in the latest roster update. before they did this it was a definite game killer, now its still an issue but more fixable.

I must say that I'm happy with a few things post patch. Passing out of the pick and roll is much better now. And the improved shooting makes mid range shooting big men much more of a weapon now. With the Bulls running 3 out 2 in with space the floor, high pick and roll with Rose and Gasol is a thing of beauty. And players like Taj Gibson actually have value now. Still shooting in the mid 60s most games so I still have slider tweaking to do but I had to give 2k some credit for making some intricate parts of the game better.

The very common green releases. Nerf in ratings does not mean that the green releases are less common, not from the few games that I have played on SS/Shooting below Sim, especially mid range. Note - I'm speaking of offline only.
