Overall, did this patch make the game way better? Does 2k12 take the title as the greatest sports game we've ever played?

Trades don't seem to happen very often but at least the trades are a bit more even in terms of value, this one doesn't really make sense though.
ONE trade happened at the trade deadline? One?

How are people not making a bigger deal about this? Do you know how many trades actually happen during an NBA season? Can you sim to the trade deadline in season 2 and see what happens?

I think trades were FINE in association mode pre-patch. If they screwed this up i'll be re-turning my unopened copy. Thanks for finding this.

I'm penetrating the hell out of the mavs with Rose( testing the mirror defense). Finishing with all kinds of crazy layups now. Just did a sick floater over marion. Dirk did reject me once though. Dare i say I'm really enjoying the game!

I have one question. Do you players actually stay (good spacing) on the 3 pt line when driving so you can have an actual drive and kick game?

Way too many times you drive and try to space to your teammates standing on the arch and they randomly run towards the hole. I HATED THAT!

Has it gotten any better?

Can someone do a test with like Shaq/Dwight, being guarded by a PG, and see how the defense reacts?
help defenders come over quicker to help contest post shots.

Max I have seen so far was 3 trades but I will do another go around. Pre-patch had the amount of trades you may see in the NBA but the deals where just insanely unrealistic

are there sliders in online association now?

But come on, 1-3 trades? This was actually a bug in last years game after the second year where 0-1 trades would happen.

If this bug is back I will be severely disappointed. Thanks for checking man.

From my one quarter of play Knicks @ Pacers i'd say so, I had amar'e faced up against West and beat him to the rim baseline, no one just randomly collapsed on my team, though Hibbert came over a little late as Amar'e was able to rise and jam it in.

other times i had Melo and drove and had Douglas stay behind the three line.


need more time to play around though.

how is the USER on ball defense now compared to before? quicker lateral speed?

Again, I may be wrong, but from my experiences in Madden I've always noticed this.
Pre-patch we got a good amount of trades even when simulating. It seems to be broken just like it was last year.

Just incredible.

Not neccesarily just help, but say you get a mismatch, like C on PG, And you post up the PG will the double come automatically like in 2k11?

i would say a lot less sluggish and more effective. not really a whole lot quicker but more responsive.
 
# 134 blues rocker @ 12/13/11 11:49 PM
bumped it up to hall of fame and it's still damn hard, but not as cheesy...you can win on hall of fame, but you have to be pretty flawless, which is how it should be...superstar looks to be my level of choice for now.
 
# 135 ChrisHansen59 @ 12/13/11 11:49 PM
I'm able to outrace slower people down the court now so I guess that's good.

Too be honest, i'd like a realistic amount of trades. The trades I was seeing weren't COMPLETELY over the top.

You could make sense out of most of them, and we got a realistic amount. I'm so disappointed right now.

Yeah just did 2 years in a row and year 1 there was 2 trades and in year 2 only 1, but I think I know why, since the cpu actually manages there teams better (which has been a constant problem with 2k) you don't have as many upset players anymore thus causing them to make less trades during the year (at least this is my theory) I will say the trades that are made are pretty decent ones but there isn't a lot of trades though. They do make a lot of d-league transactions though

Thanks for checking, I appreciate it

big men no longer hit every mid range jumper...even on hall of fame.


shot success makes sense now...i'm getting that good ol' 2k11 feeling again...shots miss when they should and go in when they should.

contested shots usually miss, open shots usually go in...what a novel idea!

Or you could control all 30 teams, pull up the good ol' ESPN trade machine, see what teams need, and play god for awhile!
