NBA 2K10 Patch #2 Available For 360 & PS3, Post Impressions Here

[plastekt]

Played my first game in association, changed it to default sliders and lowered the difficulty to superstar from hall of fame (with 10 minute quarters). Shot 67% and the CPU shot 56%. Ended up winning 128-112. I think it has more to do with me being used to playing with the sliders but driving seemed way too easy.

I also had the three point problem
Etan Thomas and Nick Collison both attempted three 3-pters against me. Of course they were also the only players who missed threes for the computer.

Definitely going to have to re-slide this one up. I scored season highs with two different players.

Does anyone with a PS3 play online!!!!! everyone is to concerned about single player mode franchise and my player. WHere are my league ballers ?

I have!

Things I've noticed

*Pick & Roll is less effective due to proper defensive rotations
*In paint play is much more physical(Loved it resembles the combine but maybe better)

*Dribbling moves are more difficult
*Long pass isn't as effective depending on player passing rating and how far the pass is

Well I turned off team chemistry and checked out the sim games again. Still a 3 problem. Big men still jacking them up. 2k better fix this, seriously. I don't care if it's a roster update or what but this is unacceptable and I'm not one to bash 2k in general. I'll suggest tweaks and what can be improved, but in general when you think about what basketball games used to be like (I started out on the old intellivsion basketball) and what it is today you can't complain much. That said, again the big men shooting three thing is unacceptable, particularly when it didn't exist and now it does. I can't imagine how this could have happened.

Okay so the 3pt shooting is screwed up but what else is it screwing up? Are there more shots per game? Possessions per game? Are these shots being taken from somewhere else? Are FT per game the same?

I don't have a PS3 so ignore me if you will but if we know what the problem is we might want to examine what else is affected and what that what caused this effect.

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch #2 Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3)

so yall telling me to avoid this patch. SO this patch have destroy association mode sim stats, big men are now starting to jack up threes. If so im done with this NBA2k cuz im not waiting another 2 months for a potential patch #3. I have put too much work in these sliders i have yet to play assiocation mode because i waiting for patch number 2 and now to find out its a game killer patch o hell no man. Forget this moving back to MW2.

What are the cons of Team Chemistry off?

You will see a good amount of playoff caliber teams miss the playoffs like spurs or lakers and see a good amount of garbage teams make the playoffs like warriors or wolves.

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch #2 Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3)

Do the big men jack up threes while playing?

I wonder what is causing this. It would kinda suck seeing big men with lots of 3pt attempts.

[Brock]

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch #2 Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3)

Yea they do shoot threes. Oden shot two of them and made 1, thats when I quit the game. This patch has messed up my association so I am probably going to stop playing association till they fix it

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch #2 Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3)

so there are still 3 pt problems both with sim stats and while playing even with team chemistry off? some people are saying yes and some saying no. can anyone else weigh in? state, good call about what happens with it off...that's a huge letdown. i was going to just play without it on but i mean, the nets in the finals? come on...

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch #2 Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3)

Can someone instruct me on how to "delete" the patch? I read this thread after I DL'ed the patch. I didnt even realize it [3pt shooting] after I played 2 games last night. I had a rookie PF take 2 3's in a game (I didn't think much of it because he has a jump shot) and then Spencer Hawes take and hit a 3 in my next game (still didnt think about it too much). Then I read this thread and checked simmed stats. First box score I check was Magic vs Pistons. Dwight Howard went 0-5 from 3pt! I am way too deep in my association to start over or turn off chemistry or player morale.

I really put a lot of work in with draft classes/signings/etc. I cannot start over. Anyone know how to delete this patch? I know people have mentioned deleting Cache? HOw do you do that and will it erase both patches? Please help!

Deleting the cache wille erase both patches. I really don't think there is a way to revert back to the previous patch once you update to the most recent one.

I see that some people are reporting that sim stats are still off even when turning off team chemistry. For those people, did you do this to an existing Association or start a new one?

I found that if you turn off Team Chemistry and start a new association, there are no problems with big men taking too many threes in sim stats. Actually, now that I think about it I turned off Player Roles in my tests as well (I did it automatically because I always turn off that feature). Maybe that has something to do with it? I guess I broke the golden rules of the scientific method by altering two variables at a time.

I might post some screen shots or do a video tonight to show you 360 guys who can't test this yourselves yet what I'm seeing.

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch #2 Available, Post Impressions Here (PS3)

so is this three point problem an Association thing? hmm doesnt really bother me much but sucks for the association guys....

mine is more of gameplay concern...does the turbo work? i found that it was broken from the last patch...i would press turbo and the guy wouldn't go to turbo animation mode instead he would just dribble the ball up normally...

I'm totally behind it. I love seeing how the help man will come over to help on the roller until your their defender can recover. It beautiful now. There are more blocks for sure. Long passes are one of my favorite new fixes. No more stupid/cheap passes. I think leagues should look into changing rules now. Because you can literally shut down the paint and shut down users offense. My fast break defense was awesome before the patch. Now my it's close to unstoppable....because of the fixes above.
