NBA 2K17 News Post


NBA 2K17 patch 1.03 was released last night for PlayStation 4 users. Here are the official patch notes. The patch is coming soon for Xbox One users, but no date has been given.

UPDATE: (10-3) Xbox One patch is available now, weighing in at 4.7GB.

GENERAL
  • Updated court floors for both the New York Knicks and the Milwaukee Bucks.
  • Uniform improvements including the addition of a number of patches (e.g. Pacers 50th anniversary patch) and changes to more accurately represent uniforms for a number of teams.
  • Addressed an issue where some pre-order users were unable to see the ’92 Dream Team on the Play Now team select menu.
GAMEPLAY
  • Substitutions made during a timeout will now immediately apply, rather than waiting for the next dead ball.
  • Reduced the frequency of lob passes and increased pass speeds across the board.
  • Fixed the 5-Second Closely Guarded rule in Euroleague-rules games such that the violation is only called when the ball carrier is holding the ball (as opposed to dribbling the ball).
MyPARK/2K PRO-AM
  • Voice chatting has been added to the Pro-Am Team Arena.
  • As your Pro-Am Team levels up, you will now begin to see your Sponsors’ logos appearing on your custom arena walls!
  • Pro-Am teams of Elite 4 (and higher) will now see big heads in the crowd of their players during games.
  • The “On The Rise” and “Get Your Feet Wet” achievements should now unlock when the proper criteria has been met.
  • Injuries in MyCAREER will no longer carry over into MyPARK/Pro-Am games. Regardless of your injury status in your career, your player will now always be fully healthy in MyPARK/Pro-Am.
  • The Turbo meter will now flash red when depleted in MyPARK/Pro-Am games.
  • Travelling as a team to Parks and Pro-Am games should now be a lot smoother and more reliable.
  • Once earned, Grand Badges should now properly appear on your player in Pro-Am & MyPARK games.
  • A large number of improvements to the camera system used during Pro-Am games. The entire experience should now look and feel much cleaner.
  • Custom Wall progress will no longer disappear when changing basket types while editing a Pro-Am Team arena.
  • Made a change such that the only whistles you will hear in MyPARK are those from your current game (unless you are walking around).
  • Your Gamertag/Online ID will now correctly show on the back of your team’s Pro-Am jersey.
  • More reliable search capabilities when searching for players in the Free Agency feature of Pro-Am.
  • Corrected a number of animation upgrades for Pro-Am that had incorrect team level requirements.
  • Fixed an issue where the overall rating of another player would display as 55 when viewing their player card during a shootaround.
  • MyPARK intro animations will now be shown with a greater variety when more than one is equipped.
MyCAREER/MyCOURT
  • Corrected a case where users would have an optional practice and a game overlapping on a single day, resulting in the user being forced to simulate to the next game.
  • Proper controls for “Orange Juice” are now shown in the Controls menu in the in-game pause menu.
  • The Ankle Breaker badge should now properly unlock when the appropriate conditions are met.
  • Attributes earned exclusively through off-court events (e.g. free throw shooting, stamina, etc.) should now properly be saved to your MyPLAYER once earned.
  • Coach Brubaker will no longer critique you for missing team practices while you are injured.
  • When playing as a Point Guard, the playcalling menu will no longer be brought up on-screen when attempting to use “Orange Juice” controls with the d-pad.
  • Fixed an issue where your MyPLAYER would sometimes appear out of focus during a post-game interview with the studio crew.
MyGM/MyLEAGUE
  • Removed an errant dialog during MyGM setup that prevented more than one custom-built team from being added to the league at time of league creation.
  • Fixed an issue in MyLEAGUE Online where loaded custom draft classes were not being preserved.
  • User vetoes are now respected in MyGM when your owner approaches you regarding the proposed rule changes for the upcoming season. If you don’t want a rule enacted, say no. If you are interested in the rule, say yes and it will go up for vote with the league.
  • When using a downloaded Team Design, the commentators will no longer refer to the team by an incorrect name.
  • Team Cards will now list team stats for the last 24 years, rather than the current and last season it showed previously. The more information, the better!
  • Fixed an issue where the Advanced Rotations menu was not properly updating following a trade, which could lead to a hang in some cases.
  • Players should now sign for normal contract values when the salary cap rule is turned off.
  • Commentary and crowd sounds will now be heard when jumping into a game that was initiated with SimCast.
  • Playoff stats will now be used in the Team Comparison and Player Comparison menus during the Playoffs (previously used regular season stats).
Many other small bug fixes and adjustments were also made, game-wide.

NOTE: All patch fixes will work in your existing game mode saves.

When players retire in my league/GM some of them will become free agent staff. You can hire them as coaches, assistant GMs, scouts, whatever.

Well every year i hate to say that but patches really ruin hardcore good stuff that the unpatched game has accomplished. The game plays too fast, passes are going thru defense and a lot of other arcade unwanted stuff happening. I don't want passes to be zippier if it would make the ball gets thru bodies, the game speed was awful with my testing too much speed and a lot of arcadish gameplay back as if it was 2k15. That organic and physical feel is kinda lost to me.

Why does it take so long for them to release the Xb1 patch? It's taking forever ....

What about not being able to change the position of a player on the floor? I want to be able to switch a player from SG to SF or any other way without the need to sub the player out, wait for the sub to happen, then sub him back in!!

Glad the passes have zip! Waiting for the Xbox Download.

Okay, 2K, this patch was a good start.

Now just fix that darn help defense and we're golden.

I mean, we've gone from "wow, this game plays GREAT out of the box" to "Hey, why'd he just leave that guy wide open--AGAIN?" in record time.
It's been, what, a week?

(Though, on a lesser priority note, can you please fix the back of the Kansas City Knights' home unis? The names are white-on-white. But that's FAR down the priority list.)

I don't know what game you are playing but the crowd reacts correctly 90 percent in the games I am playing.

Same thing happening on mine post-patch. Scores are higher than normal. FG% is higher than it should be. Also, no more David Aldridge.

EDIT: Ok, moving into the second quarter now the FG% has dropped a bit more back towards normal though it's still a bit too high. AI defense seems really poor.

Also the game speed is a lot faster than it should and passes started to get thru inside players they were close to perfect b4 patch.

What about a fix for the ridiculous moving pick that a big man does to me as a point guard that pushes me clearly from the top of the key to under the basket?

Same here, it's unbelievable that they make different Launch times for a patch

Post patch:

FG% Higher

Passes definitely have more zip.

More mid range/less pull up 3's

Shooting Easier/Meter Slower/Did the SS HOF settings somehow revert to 50's somehow?

Layups Easier

Defense not as sticky

Game a little more wide open/Arcady.

Defensive Rotations still poor although on occasion surprisingly well done.

Fastbreaks are now possible

Double Team cpu nonsense leaving players wide open under the basket still exists and is a game killer, IMO.

Still can't get transition defense right after free throw make or miss. Legacy Issue.

Poorest out of the box effort I can recall from 2K. Game appears to be a couple of patches or some serious slider manipulations away from living up to its legacy.

What level are u playing on? I played last night on HOF... the defense was definitely sticky. I saw no ankle breaking animations either... I played with John Wall and Lillard.

I feel the same... I am bummed honestly. Hopefully they can get the core gameplay close to out of the box.

The faster passing speeds is sort of speeding up the animations and it plays more hectic and herky jerky. There are more open shots as a result and it feels like I'm on skates on defense.

One suggestion suggested is to turn up your defensive assist to 75% in controller settings. I am at work so I won't be able to try it till I get home. Hopefully that will help with better control on defense. At least this is what I am hoping.

Exactly the right term is herky jerky all over the court! It was a beatiful game b4 patch and the worst of all same applies to super speed defense recovery, its back now where it was beatiful b4. Smfh! I really am sad.

I liked the patch. It fixed issues that I was having, ACE I'm looking at you, and has made the game play better in my humble opinion.

Yeah I think its better. I can't point out anything specific, but the defense, the subbing, the flow, looks good.
