Uhh sounds like you were the idiot who bet thousands on a video game after a patch without practicing first.

It's okay, with that last post he made he won't be posting here long and can get all the help he obviously needs.

I just played another match for $30 on gamersaloon. I played A1 perfect defense. Best defense possible. My opponent shot 14-25 from 3 and that was a bad shooting game from him. He was making 3s all in my face with curry and thompson. I pray that the person who made this last patch dies. I pray that they have cancer and death karma. I pray that they slowly die for ruining a game so bad. This person has costed me thousands. Anyone who believes in God needs to pray with me. I am a strong believer of God and have prayed with all my might that the person who released this stupid motherfu,c,king patch suffers and dies slow for not thinking before releasing this patch.

your stories are starting to get suspicious, here you go ..stop it already.

Man, here I am going to school to get a good job when I could make a living just playing you and taking your money.

Does 2K have more then one person test out the patches before releasing? I don't see how almost every year they release a patch that screws something up. I learned from pasts years not to download patches on day 1 and take ppl's impressions on day 1 not so seriously. I appreciate my non patch 4 game even more after seeing so many ppl complain. I'm also still waiting for more ppl to sim for 5 years and see if good players are getting $500,000 contracts.

Said it before, but my biggest gripe with patch #4 is that it took away the strategy of playing the percentages and picking your poison on defense....I think this is the first 2k game since maybe 2K11 where that was implemented properly. I feel like I have to close out hard to just about everyone now. Like Mike said, it does look like contested %'s have gone down, but it's made defense more 'gamey' than realistic IMO.....besides blocking and bail out fouls I didn't have many issues defensively pre patch...

Instead of complaining about it nonstop, why not go back to playing 2K11 then? I mean, these people are human. They screw things up. It happens.

When the patch coming up for xbox one?

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

Played 2 games tonight and shooting percentages for all 4 teams were over 50%. I think the biggest thing I'm noticing that is causing the higher FG% isn't so much the tweaked success rate of shots, it's that staying in front of your man on D is a lot tougher.

I played the Golden State at Portland game and lost 110-102. In the first half I held the Blazers to under 40% from the field. In the second half, they scored a ton of points in the paint on drives to the hoop and offensive rebounds. They shot something crazy like 65% for the half, but again, most of those were close range. Lillard blew past me a ton of times and the help D was nowhere to be found. The first half, he wasn't looking to drive as much. Aldridge did work in the post and mid-range.

In my first game, Charlotte at Minnesota, the T-Wolves just had one of those games. Hitting 3's and seemingly every shot when the shot clock wound down. They shot 52% and I was at 55% and still lost by 16.

So yeah, more shots are falling but if you can contest and guard tough, the percentages stay realistic, at least on real FG%. It's when the blow-boy's start happening that the floor opens up and shots fall from all over the place.

This was all on All-Star/Simulation with no slider adjustments.

This still sounds promising to me DJ. Thanks for your impressions. I strictly play on ball defense and switch to whomever the ball is passed to. I also use the Sixers so it should hopefully still be challenging to win regardless..lol. I'm a little nervous that some are saying it's even tougher to control your guy on defense as I felt my guy was constantly moving or re-adjusting before patch 4.


To you, CaseIH, etc: Do you feel that you guys have better control of your guy on offense? Did they reduce automations (animations that often take too long to carry out leaving you out of control) and shorten up the animations so you have a little more control when moving with the ball?

Because I'm playing 2K15, and enjoying myself.....even if I give feedback on it. I also point out what I enjoy about the game...

Don't want to be one of those guys who spend all their time on the forum *****ing about every aspect of the game....then get upset when something is tweaked. I'm sure you know those types of guys...................

The player movement does seem more fluid; you'll still get stuck in animations but they don't feel as drawn out now. That could be another reason why playing defense has changed in that before you were almost guarding against the animation than you were the player; now you've got to really play the man.

I may have to try on-ball defense (I said off-ball earlier but spoke wrong) to see if that helps (I think it will).

I am still loving this game and at the end of the day if I have to adjust a couple of sliders to get the shooting percentages back to where they were before the patch, that's not a big deal to me.

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

Okay, I have to say this because what I'm seeing is so far off from what others have claimed. On my PC version I can lower the close, midrange, and 3 PT sliders to 0, get green releases and STILL brick with an F shot quality with Klay Thompson. There is an entire range of 0-50 to work with on each of those to find a sweet spot for offline play. I fail to see how this is broken and unfixable.

I'm perfectly capable of posting video showing F brick after F brick with good releases if anyone wants.

Yeah you are looking at it from a user vs. CPU offline. If you play mycareer you cannot edit sliders so they are basically stuck having a game that shooting gets way out of hand. MyPlayer is the most popular mode or it was. So it is not fixable in that sense.

Yeah, you definitely have a point there. But people seemed to be acting like the entire offline experience was broken.

I do feel for those who want to play a realistic career.

I would say offensively you have more control than on D for sure. The 1 ssue with offense I have is wen you pass the ball to a guy he slides all over the place, so where you passed to him at the elbw, he might be at the 3pt line once he secures the ball,lol. That's really th eonly offensive control issue I see since this patch.

I understand not having sliders available with the online connectivity aspect of MyCAREER, but they really should make sliders available for the offline version....

Yup and it's absolutely ridiculous that this hasn't been implemented yet...that was one thing that played a huge factor in me getting this game for the PC was the ability to use sliders in the MyCareer mode...
