NBA 2K15 Patch #4 Available Now, Primarily Addresses Shoe Issues

03:17 PM - March 12, 2015 by Steve_OS

NBA 2K15 patch #4 has been released for PlayStation 4 and PC users. It is not available yet for Xbox One users. The patch primarily addresses the shoe issues in the game, more specifically in MyCAREER mode. You can see the workaround here.

After you download it, let us know what you are seeing. Once 2K releases the patch notes, we will update this post.

UPDATE: (via @Ronnie2K) Another thing addressed last night was fix to deal w/ rare occurrences that led to NBA 2K15 MyPARK rep being stuck. Should no longer happen.

Even when your shot is rated a 95? The shot meter was too unforgiving at times, especially considering the highest your offensive consistency can go is 50.

First problem- using meter instead of learning correct shot animation. Its been recommended many times here to turn it off. Slightly late or early is what you should strive for. Being open isn't enough and should never be.

On higher difficulties you have to learn hot/cold spots , whether player is good off dribble or only set shots , do badges help ( corner specialist, deadeye) , tendencies, etc etc

This game is ALOT more complicated than people here know. Having a 95 standing 3pt shot means nothing if u shoot off dribble while in a cold spot even if u consider that a open shot

I have a question : do anyone else my player go slow on fast breaks when they have the ball in their hand? I'm missing out on a bunch of fast break points due to the game slowing me down

I noticed my player getting slowed on fast breaks ever since patch #3 honestly. The cpu magically catches up most of the time from my experience.

As an FYI, any and all progression/regression tuning only applies to new saves started after installing Patch #4.

I've never had Steph Curry drop. Even before patch. And I've never seen Jeff Green lose 6 points in a season. Were there injuries? How many games did they play the season prior?

The man does it again. Nice

On superstar atleast, shooting is too easy. Also seems like they increased player speed a notch or three.

You can 'know' the shot animation all you want (I know Jordan's release nearly like the back of my hand) but nobody is ever going to hit the release on point every single time, and in some circumstances, you're just going to have games where lag can mess with the release timing. Thing is, the game sometimes punishes you because of it. Especially when the other team goes on runs. If you so happen to play the Rec religiously, you'd see what I'm talking about.

My player literally ha every single hot spot on the court, and most of the time, I can shoot in the 60%-ish range. But sometimes, no matter what I do, unless I hit perfect release after perfect release, I can't buy a bucket on wide open shots. Now I'm not saying I expect to make every shot, but I do expect to make a good percentage of them when I'm shooting smart shots. Going 30%-40% from the field with all hot spots and nothing but wide open shots is unacceptable, especially when it can sometimes happen in back-to-back games. All because they were 'slightly early' or 'slightly late.'

# 152 Andreas85 @ 03/13/15 03:52 PM

After about 30-40 park games i've noticed shooting is now overpowered as hell. Yellow shots goes in at a slightly higher percentage then before. But the big change is excellent releases, it's ridicolous how easy it is to get green releases now i had plenty of games in that 30-40 park game stretch where i went 4/4 or 5/5 from 2s where 80-100% were green releases. What have they done? Before this patch i felt lucky getting 1-2 green releases per game. However im barely seing any contested shots going in. So that seems to be good.

I'm confused. Is there any information about progression/regression tuning with this patch? What was done?

Thanks, if anyone knows.

If what is true from what I've been reading, if 2k did tremendously improve the servers, that may have a big part to play in the improved shooting.

That's great to hear that you guys tweaked that for My League, especially being as late as it is into the season. Glad I didn't start My League earlier, so I wouldn't have to start over, just getting ready to start today

LeftOS please please please address PS4 MyPark Voice chat!!!!!

# 158 FOXHOUNDxBigBoss @ 03/13/15 04:44 PM

Can we get a patch for the last gen version to fix this dumb rainbow shoes glitch? (and add cyberfaces for some of the 2014 rookies that don't have one.)

# 159 Pandetta @ 03/13/15 05:35 PM

It is not at all clear that progression/regression was meaningfully tuned. Any chance someone can chime in on positive MyLeague tuning?

Thanks for all the hard work 2k guys!

# 160 Rockie_Fresh88 @ 03/13/15 06:34 PM

Contested shots seem the same to me that being they go in way too often at the rec
