so no word on defense ? I´d throw all non-association changes out the window in exchange for realistic CPU defense in terms of double teaming in the paint (not standing behind the teammate when double teaming aka being useless) .

and my player has officially died for me. I can´t understand this at all, instead of giving expanded user-friendly options they even take away that little bit that was there (changing on start up) .

Well, at least now we officially know where the priorities are, online play.

Brace yourself if you are an offline player, the coming years won´t be pretty ...

For as much whining went on about defense, I'd bet money that they did something about it. Ask the mods. They can ask the devs directly. Or Simballer.

As for My Player, I think that based on the change in the patch, they never intended to allow for variable length quarters. That means that the mode was BALANCED for 5 minute quarters. So, that says you're stuck with it for 2K10 unless they decide to let you break the balance of the mode. I can't imagine trying to accomplish some of these objectives with longer quarters (limit your opponent to 6 points...). Yikes.

Anyway, for ANYONE to whine and moan about this HUGE patch list and call it a waste considering everything on that list is pathetic in my opinion. You'll never be happy. Life sucks.

Hey now, the ref bouncing the ball to the FT shooter is HUGE, MONUMENTAL addition that has been a necessity for a few years now. Let's not get our priorities mixed up here.

Man, that bounce pass on the free throw thing is like in the movies when a dummy gets three wishes, and wastes the first one on a hamburger.

The difference here is that the dummy got well over 100 wishes. Choosing to eat a burger while he waited for the other wishes to come to fruition was probably a wise idea.

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch Details Announced

Yeah, thats why it was the only fix on the entire list right?........../sarcasm

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch Details Announced

That's true. Every time someone morphs through two or three people to get an unjustified alley oop, it really warms my heart to see the ref execute a pass properly while the clock is stopped. It also makes it easier when good defenders walk away from their assignments.

Oh wait, it totally doesn't.

Are you calling Pared a dummy?

FYI to everyone in this thread, I'm not saying there shouldn't be aesthetic, superficial changes in a patch. It's more of a comment on how many times certain things are brought up.

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch Details Announced

Wow Born sounds real bitter.

Just got word that there will be a lot of defensive fixes in this patch:

-Pick and roll will now be covered by help defenders
-The broken double teams where your teammate goes behind you will be fixed
-Updated Help Routines

Just to name a few.

The hamburger thing was a joke, man. You've spoken to me enough times on XBL to know that I don't get bitter. I'll be bitter if we don't get a public option in our reformed health care bill, but I think I can live with whatever the good guys over at 2k do with their games.

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch Details Announced

Whatever. I take hamburger jokes personally. Wimpy was a great character. May have been a bum with no credit, but great regardless.

Ok, no more off-topic from me! How about those defensive fixes...

Silly of the 2K forum guys to leave these off the list. Good to see "butt-rape" is hopefully addressed.

I thought that was quite funny. I'm sure he knew you were joking. It was obvious to me and I don't even know you.

Why does it matter? What does it change? If they knew about all of these, do you think they would have been able to afford missing their street date? Someone has already posted this, but it bears repeating: sports game developers have a HARD job of putting a "new" game out every year. Most AAA titles have at LEAST an 18 month dev cycle. No really good game I know of has less than a 2 year dev cycle. So, at some point, there's going to be bugs that they feel they don't have time to fix. Knowing what we know about these guys, I can guarantee that some of these were just plain missed by QA.

But asking this question is silly: every developer - games or otherwise - know that their product isn't going to go out bug free. They choose their battles and roll with the punches. But common sense says that they wouldn't ship something intentionally that they feel would HURT their product. To me, the implication would be quite insulting actually.

Well said. I was going to essentially say the same thing but now you've saved me some time. I'm thinking that short developmental cycle with a set deadline can wreak havoc on releasing a game they're completely satisfied with. I would guess they began addressing problems before it was even released.

Re: patch details here

Really glad that they have fixed the contract and morale issues in Association.

I'm not to familar with Patches...When most console games release patches do they really fix the things that they say are patched?

What are your experiences with past 2K games that have been patched?
