NBA 2K18 Patch #7 Available Now, Patch Notes Included

re: NBA 2K18 Patch #7 Available Now, Patch Notes Included

Just played a couple of offline games. Nothing feels different, which is perfectly fine for me.

I play offline only, things I've noticed:

1.Shots % seemed to be turned down a little
2.Driving the lane seems a little more challenging: can't always force that drive the lane animation 100% of the time like pre patch
3.Pick n rolls are better
4.able to play better defense
5.Contested shots force more misses for both human and cup. All star level with slight slider adjustments
6.Allys are completed and player actually catch the ball instead of the ball just flying out of bounds or off their hands
7.A few player updates
8. Colors seems darker and richer. Think NBA live
9.Player models and shoes look more detailed. I have a 55" Sony bravia 3d 1080p and graphics looked upscaled. That cartoon effect looks to be toned down.
10.Some centers do seem a little faster, witch is a good thing. Guys like Kevin Love actually run and not look like he's running a 10 second 40
11.Your shot will get blocked just running in the paint and not respecting the defense. Learn to shot floaters or pass the ball out.

That's all for now. Some stuff might just be in my head, but this is just some things that I've seem to notice

The CPU has called timeouts since the beginning for me. I keep seeing this being posted and I’m always so confused. The CPU has never not called timeouts during my time playing.

In the beginning, the cpu never called timeouts for me. I went a least 4 straight games and none were called. I've noticed that if your winning by a decent margin, the cpu will call one or two. I haven't noticed after the last path, but Imma pay attention to see the next game i play

lol he was on their 2k tv show last season give break dude with this highest priority crap there are a bunch of people with outdated face scans that are high caliber and playing . Not to mention he’s been in there doing mo Cap dunks after his rookie year. Just like the rookies who got face scans but no tattoos added and some players who go tattoos removed that had them
In the previous game. Just sounds like excuses


This is the first time they updated players since 2k16 and that’s when they do called told us last year they could seamlessly update players and didn’t . I’m happy they update some guys but I still have the right to voice if I feel a player who was in one of the biggest trades in the offseason should have gotten an update. Especially a player who debuted in the year 2014.

I dont know what's up with that dude Jeebs, he turned in a Mod / Captain2K.

That's exactly what I've been seeing. I threw at least 5 alley oops last night with Jason Kidd. As most know I've been playing with him since release. Kenyon Martin is more of these now. He even caught a few that were short. And just didn't fly out of bounds.

I honestly don't know what game your'e playing. Although I only play MY GM And exhibition modes. In 10 games, I'd say the computer might averaged 1 or 2 time outs an entire game. I might get lucky to see them call 1 at the end of the 4th quarter and that's only if I"m winning and they never take a player out in foul trouble. IF i"m losing the whole game, they never call time out. This has been a very serious issue this year since launch and I've never remember time outs ever being an issue. Back on the old 2k, they would call at last 2 time outs in a quarter regardless of what was going on in a quarter. I'm interested if it was addressed.

I honestly don't know what game your'e playing. Although I only play MY GM And exhibition modes. In 10 games, I'd say the computer might have called 6-8 time outs.

I’m playing the same game we are.

Offline, superstar, 12 min quarters.

The CPU frequently calls timeouts during the game when I play. I only see a select few people on here saying it’s a problem, and I’ve never seen it on Twitter or Reddit.

I don’t know what’s going on in other people’s games, but I see timeouts at a normal clip from the CPU

which console you on? I wonder if there is a code issue with shorter quarters? Sometimes I only play 6-8 min quarters.

Haha it would hurt my feelings. But I've keep seeing the same theme around here.

I'm not saying he doesn't need a update. I'm not trying to bs you guys. But hard truth.. He hasn't played this season. Who do you think got more request for changes. Lavine or AD getting a headband? Yup some players didn't get needed updates. I feel bad for them.

I didn't mean to sound so pissed lol. Sorry my guys. Never want to come off a dick.

I’m on PS4. It Honestly sounds like a low minute quarter issue.

Trying playing a game with 12 min quarters and post your findings.

Are you using custom rosters Gosens?

I've seen both sides of the time out thing....just posted a video the other day of the CPU calling a timeout not associated with a run....but I have also seen instances where the CPU doesnt call many. I can't call it.

yeah .I might do that. What I do know though, this never was an issue on past 2k games. And I've been playing 2k since Dreamcast and the AI always seemed to call time outs when needed and smart doing so.

re: NBA 2K18 Patch #7 Available Now, Patch Notes Included

Figured they would release something before Christmas, should i even get my hopes up that they fixed any players apperances ? 48 hours

I hope in arts changes but I think will remain a hope.

its time we need to get some art work done

My hopes- Player art changes and maybe some added defensive player movement with mo-capped animations by Bruce Bowen

Hair updates are in

Rose, Baynes, Deandre, Lonzo, Ingram, Randle,

Thank you 2k god for finally answering the most requested thread that i thought will be forgotten again this year. you have no idea how much of a big deal this is to a lot of pure hardcore realistic offline gamers. i got goose bump just typing this. i know that there are still some players that need to be updated but this time 2k deserve the praise. and i know that you will keep on updating them as the day pass by. GD im so happy right now.

I think one of the problems for 2k with timeouts. Is the new format of timeouts. It's new for the league. So how can they figure out themselves? Lol even I have trouble calling timeouts in the beginning. I can't tell you how pissed I've gotten when the CPU calls my second to last timeout right after the clocks turns 2:59 lol.

I can't imagine trying re code how the CPU calls timeouts. Problem had to throw the old format out.
