Re: NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now For Xbox One

I just started a MyLeague, it's available there but not in MyGM, which makes no sense. Players don complain in MyLeague, what a joke

Available where?

I thought that side stepping into shots when players are wide open was going to be patched. Seen it happen as usual.

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now For Xbox One

I played 3 online games when I got home from work today, 2 in Play Now and one in MyTeam. I won all 3......But some of the issues that plague this years 2K are still somewhat prevalent. Let's review:

1. The bump steal is back and better than ever, regardless of ballhandler ball rating. If you get hit from the side by a player on the opposite team, you will almost certainly lose the ball. The behind the back steal is also annoyingly effective, so unless you're protecting the ball at all times get ready for some "what the heck?" turnovers.

2. Transition defense is sort of fixed. What'll happen now is that your center will sort of camp in the middle of the paint until everyone gets back. Unfortunately, one of the people I played quickly figured out a way around this: Just pull-up for 3. It feels more like they slapped a band-aid on it rather than make actual fixes.

3. On-ball defense itself feels very nerfed. All 3 people I played were essentially turboing around me to get into the paint to dunk, using half-spins and baseline spin moves. And they were mostly successful. Your AI teammates sometimes over-help to the point where they'll ignore 3 point threats. However this actually helps in terms of Pick and roll defense, as they will automatically rotate over to cover the screener.

4. Jumping fouls (where you pump fake and the opponent bites and your player shoots the ball and gets the whistle) seem very toned down. Too much I think, since people can pretty much jump into you 3 or 4 times in a row and get away with it. And they come up with steals doing that too. Very annoying.

That's about it.

You are very on the point. 1 and 3 are the worst online. As a center, getting the ball anywhere but an open dunk under the basket so far has lead to someone bumping into me to get the steal almost every time. Then the on ball defense is basically guys standing (even bigs) and then blowing by and getting into the paint and making almost every lay up. There were also some ridiculous 3's going in.

So far, I'm in the middle. Some of the new addition/fixes are nice but it's going to be an annoyance trying to play defense and it doesn't seem like the whole Center getting stripped thing is much better at all. In a positive, the CPU players in Pro-Am are better and they take position into account now so whatever position you're missing, you'll get someone for.

Also seems like my replays are also broken as well. When it's about to go to a replay, it just like glitches and go back to the game. Thinking that's also what happen to my ring ceremony, it just skipped it. Hopefully, that stuff can be cleaned up soon..

This started for me last night.

Was back this morning



Hopefully just a blip

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now For Xbox One

and laggy defense when you play is a joke. sometimes when you attempt to add more animations to a game it suffers till the end of the year before it plays good. i am tired of having to wait for the game to be responsive to my actions on the court i feel like a person who has alzheimer's when i attempt to play defense..

This statement is my biggest biggest issue with 2ks gameplay.. Post patch there are some notable improvements ... But this statement above kills the game for me...

Here's the deal:

2k gives us so much control... They include defensive and offensive tutorial vids in the game... They give us PoE.. Sampham and daCzar post helpful defensive tips on man to man defensive ...

So 2K.. Why give us all this control on defense... If your going to decide the outcome for us when the cpu AI decide to make a scoring move to the basket ???? And you use a Jedi mind trick to lag the user on defense then release us once the cpu has had its way with us .. and hope our minds and eyes believe it's all a legit fluent behavior ..??? Yes it works against kids who can't tell the difference ... But 2k has to know it's mostly older teenagers and Aldults who play mygm and my league and use all the tools the game give us to create a realistic experience as much as possible...

All the feed back post patch is great guys but I feel with all the different modes on this game there needs to be split post patch comments threads ... It's hard to read through all the issues with Myplayer and my career when those are modes some of us don't touch and vice versa... Sorry you guys are having sooo many issues post patch with those modes man. I will start a thread for MyGm / MyLeague post patch Sim impressions ... If a mod thinks it's a bad idea then let me know ..

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now For Xbox One

Really starting to hate this patch. Playing against the CPU is just drivng me nuts.

Perfect defense, but Monroe hits ridiculously tough shot. If that had been me shooting that, it would've been a Death Star Lego brick.

Here a nice lil' crossover by Bledsoe...but watch what happen at the other end. The CPU's perimeter bumping does not seem to be affected in the least. I understand Bledsoe is a good defender, but I still have Kyle Korver bodying up people like Rose and Curry and forcing them to pick up their dribble.

Try turning down your CPU assist, if necessary turn it down to 0, I hope this helps.

It's at zero by default always has been on 12 min superstar sim... I check it from time to time to see if it goes up ... I even raised it to 100 thinking. It may be reversed lol. Same result ... The worse is when the country rush pick and roll and the big runs under the goal and you know the cheesy pass is coming and your in front of the center waiting to steal the ball... When the AI is ready to make the pass and your in the passing lane it will move your guy out of the way and make the pass.. Or if your about to get to the passing lane... It will slow you down so it can make the pass..

But thx for the advice man I'm at a lost with the gameplay from 2k for allowing this crap in the game ..

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now For Xbox One

I like some of the improvements but I'm not really liking the on ball defense adjustments. You can just set up dribble yourself open pretty consistently. Too much interior passing as well. Not sure if its patch related but wayyy too many bailout fouls as well.

I am liking that inside shots have been toned down

After playing 5 games last night, my biggest complaint would be the on the ball defense. Not sure why I'm really surprised that it's toned down. Defense always take a backseat to the offense. However, I feel like my opponents were just "moving" past me at angles, and there was little to no contact animations unless they ran directly into me. I am happy that sliding around on defense is less noticeable overall, and DEFINITELY happy that my players are flopping less and not getting many blocking fouls.

I'm not too concern about the blocking. As much as I loved pinning the shot attempts to backboard (I will genuinely miss that, lol), realism is realism. Also, I'm going to chalk up my poor shooting to either a new behind the scenes tweak or the patch had an impact on the players' releases. I'll just go into practice mode and readjust. I was shooting a lot of C+ or lower shots. Before the patch, I was shooting a lot more B- and higher shots.

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now For Xbox One

I give this patch ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆

Park and Pro AM play very well and I love love love the 3s in the key violation in Park.

My Career plays much better in respect to AI use of ACE and plays are run at a higher tempo.

The only criticism I have is the ball security. In Pro Am my 99 balanced SG is dropping the ball with no interference initiated and no iso dribble initiated - I simply put the ball in live play and suddenly it's dislodged when I try and move... I had 6 loose ball turnovers one Pro Am game and not one of them were initiated by the defender contact or traffic... player simply loses control...

The ball security pitfall is an extremity and I'm not gonna request it be patched. Reason being: there is way more good in this patch than bad that I don't want any more tuning and patching to ball security - I can wait for 2k17.

Blocking feels fine, on ball defense feels fine, shooting, it all feels fine and so does the general gameplay in Patch 3.

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch #3 Available Now For Xbox One

I actually like the patch vs. the CPU SS Sim no slider changes. I have shot the lights out in one game with the Warriors. I was like 18/30 from 3pt and made 8/8 as a team in the 3rd. I don't recall any game like this year with multiple teams I have used. Draymond was on Barnes on. I had like 3 guys with the double rings. I had to double check the settings multiple times. It reminded me of that Clippers game.

I played another game Portland vs. Timberwolves and I shot 6/30 from three 20% and the game went into double overtime I managed to pull it out. Something is up with the clutch in this game or is it just me so many games are close or come down to the last few shots? Towns hit this midrange shot to tie the game should have recorded it just crazy with like a second left.

I know I played at least 10 plus overtime games already. The CPU just comes back it is hard to put them away.

What is clear to me is they toned down the "brain neutral" user CPU AI. Is it perfect no but it is much better post patch. It makes a big difference that your CPU teammates are helping out.

SS/SIM has felt fantastic to me post patch tbh....
