Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

2K must address the AI playcalling and team and individual player tendencies. To me, that's the only thing holding this game back. I played a game against the Bulls and by midway through the 2nd quarter Kyle Korver attempted 16 shots. I bet if I go through his stats last year, he probably didn't exceed that many shots for a entire game the whole year, much less a quarter and a half. I checked his Shot and Touches tendencies and they are 45 and 21 respectively. Some shots were good looks... maybe 5. The other 11 was aggressive effort to get off his shot that you'd expect from a Derrick Rose or Carlos Boozer, who by the way were in the game while this was occurring. This seems to be a hardcoded issue where particular players get into a mode of shooting on EVERY possession.

In a game against the Thunder, the same 2 plays were being run for Durant literally every possession. Understandable that Durant is a 6'10 SG and is hard to stop off the pick and pop, but my computer teammates seemed to not make any adjustments to interrupt the play and the guy would hit the shot even with a hand in his face nearly every time. As a result, Durant, on 2 occasions, had about 26 points against me at the half strictly off of jump shots.

The computer AI needs to spread the ball around better and run a balanced offense that does not consist of 1 or 2 plays to one person. Also, the logic behind who is taking a shot and when needs to be addressed, as it seems the AI currently just decides which player they want to go to for the quarter and everyone else sits and watches. It should be situational to where guys shoot when they have openings and the ball is moved around looking for openings. I see too many guys creating right now that shouldn't be creating, and alot of players doing things out of character. Against Phoenix, Warrick was killing me with the corner jumper and on top of that, was executing Kevin Garnett-esque fadeaways which were very difficult to hinder. Each time I play the Knicks, Anthony Randolph is their most aggressive player offensively, though his Shot and Touches tendency say otherwise.

Last thing, I have noticed that the hand in face 'animation' is more effective at hindering the post fadeaway jumper than actually jumping and putting a hand in face while attempting a block. Should be opposite I would think....

I agree with everything you said. I think the CPU calls plays by position rather than by player. I had the CPU call the same corner three-pointer play over and over for Bargnani for the Raptors, only to see him exit the game and David Andersen take his place. The CPU then proceded to call the exact SAME plays for Andersen that he did Bargnani. Really? David Andersen? Really?

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

Please fix the shot chart. For the 5th nba 2k game in a row they manage to do the short chart wrong.
At the end of the game only the 2nd half shot taken (hit/missed) is showing.

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

Fix the black/white long socks thing and fix the length of John Stockton's shorts. They are way too long.

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

They need to credit whoever pokes the ball loose with the steal and not the player that collects the ball. 2k's been giving the steal to whomever collects the ball for years now.

Here's a clip from the 08 Finals when Kobe poked the ball loose to Odom(who collects the ball but isn't credited with the steal). The announcers heavily stresses that the steal belongs to Kobe.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSSlvsQDemA

It is also recorded in the stat books as Kobe's steal. NBA.com's history log wouldn't go past October 09' so I had to use ESPN's history as reference. The steal is recorded with 40 seconds left in the 4th quarter.

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

Not sure if this has been brought up but....in my player or Jordan create a legend mode, if i make a pass and it gets tipped but still falls into the hands of the teammate and they score, the announcers and PA will say its counted as an assist but the display where the stats are shown in the upper right corner doesn't credit me it.

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

-Allow us to change headband colors just like we can with any other accessory (been begging years for this)

-More non-shooting fouls

-More non-steal turnovers

-Iverson's headband is too high. Lower it right above his eyebrows and flip the logo to the back of his head and upside down (LOL yes, I know this is petty but still...)

-More offball movement

-Rebound ratings should be determined mostly by timing 1st and foremost, then other variables (vertical, strength, height, awareness). I am 5'5 but can out-rebound people taller than me.

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

the things that bother me the most are the frontal foul calls ..I don't know how to explain it but it almost seems like the call gets called ahead of the reach in...like the computer is jumping the gun on the call...like ..I'll reach and before I have made any contact I am already being called for the foul.

PLease, Please , Please turn up the Blocks (sound) Beluba turn it up like you guys had it in nba live 10....please (just as important as a dunk to me)

when the cheerleaders are doing their thing at halftime the game will show them putting their hands on their hips but the hands dont even touch their waist. (little thing but hey if guys can complain about socks..I can say something about this...lol)

Sliding should be addressed

Passing with the shot stick is inaccurate in a lot of instances..not all the time but most times.

NBA Today feature is not automatic when I boot up the game...I always have to start an online game to get it to show on my screen...why?

I LOVE THIS GAME!!!

OMG!!! Someone else said it!!!! I'm big on create a team and player. This is very annoying. No matter what color you chose the numbers to be on create a team for your jerseys, it only changes the numbers on the back and not the front. NBA2K delvers.....name ONE team whose numbers on the front of their jersey don't match the numbers on the back of their jersey.....don't worry.....I'll wait. This needs to be fixed!!!

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

I'm sure its been mentioned but:
Faster ref passing(meaning the refs dont hold onto the ball for 5-10 seconds during an inbound play)

Faster game passing(like someone here mentioned before, passes are only as fast as the players in the game which isn't a good thing)

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Suggestions

Fix the fastbreak logic. CPU recover too fast and your teamates (besides big men) almost never fill the right lanes or cut to the basket. I was playing with the 90-91 LAL and in a 3-on-2 situation both worthy and scott stopped behind the 3pt lines. Where is the fun?
It happened several times and with other teams. It's worse than 2k10 even if I remember a developer insight saying that fastbreak was much improved in 2k11

Fix manual passing. I know that you have icon passing and RS passing but regular passing just doesn't work fine and I really don't understand why

Probably those have already been mentioned so just count me as +1
