Since portraits have been updated, if a player gets traded will he still keep his portrait or will it be the generic animated one?

Ive often thought this as well. Its understandable to have some minor things slip thru the cracks, but it seems every yr, there are some major issues at release, that shouldnt be missed.

One thing to keep in mind.. the game is MASSIVE and think about all the possible permutations of your data's state there can be at any given time with all the modes, rosters, point in the career, bought items, etc. You could never hire enough testers to actually test the game as thoroughly as you'd need to, and even if you could hire them you couldn't manage them, it's unwieldy at some point.

Also, keep in mind that even if you have 3-4 solid months of QA testing of some feature or mode by knowledgeable testers, someone could accidentally break it by making a code or data change the day the game is locked for submission, at which point you only get the Sony or Microsoft internal testers looking at it and they wont be nearly as thorough.

Playing NBA Today game on hof default Lakers(cpu) vs. Blazers(user) and my guards are getting more rebounds now, usually my PF and C has been getting all of the rebounds, also seeing alot more long rebounds which is probably why my smaller players are getting more boards. Hope I continue to see this. I'll keep ya'll posted.

Lack of dunk type consistency is still an issue.

Yes, I agree with what you said. But when you have the same issue every yr with the game, that goes unfixed, is what really irks me. We have had issues every since NBA2k14, might even be as far back as 13, I cant remember for sure, but I know for sure every since 14, the CPU has managed foul trouble horribly. In 4 yrs you dont fix it, and they have got to know its a issue, after all the devs do play the game too.

I do understand, even though its frustrating to have MyLeague issues, at the start, especially this yr when they added so much into it, as like you said, it may have been fine, and something later in the build right before release date could have broke something, so as long as it gets fixed in a patch, Im OK with that, as I usually wait till a week or so after the NBA season starts, to dive into MyLeague.

I hate to tell you this but every video game has clipping. You will never escape it especially in a game where bodies fly around in close quarters.

It's annoyed me at times but 2K has done a good job in atleast fixing the ball clipping through players most of the time and that's more important to me than the little speck of elbow going into someone's head.

There is more clipping than previous years because 2k wanted to make stronger player more dominant in the paint vs weaker one for this game. Also there is way more clipping on the dribble animations, in 2k17 you'd lose ball almost every time while going for spin move or behind back into defender's body, now often dribbler just phase through defender without losing ball.

Little speck of elbow... right

I'm having trouble inserting a video, but i've seen full body faze through my 330lb 99 strength center. In post. Off line. So yeah...

what's the time out issue?

My question is when you call a time out after a free throw and then you can't see your player shooting for the 2nd shot. Is that what you're talking about? Is that really still in the game? That's disappointing. That's a major glitch IMO. Not being able to see your shooter shoot the free throw is unacceptable.

PS4 - CPU during fast matches does not call timeouts. (Call them but only if the user is winning with a large margin)

And then this happens (user Phila - CPU Detroit):

Yeah I played a 9 min game in my GM and the cpu never called a single time out. I also am having problems geting icon passing to work. I’ll have to press the icons passing button 2-3 times to get it to activate . These are very problematic for me

No there is more clipping this year bacause 2k removed the 2 man canned animations
