Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Details Released

What settings do you have for the "Run Plays" Slider in the Coach and Playbook menus?

Whatever the default is. You can't change that in My Player.

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Details Released

Just a few things left out from my 3 games this morning. 20 second time display isn't showing. A few others I can't remember right now. NO MORE SPIN DUNK!! You have to be smart about when you use it. I can't wait to play a few online games. I a lot of those pass out of shots don't work with non-elite passers. I saw a friend of mine that threw severally passes out of bounds. A lot of things to like this morning. I love it!! Best Basketball game of all time.

Even music is playing Custom random!!

Re: NBA 2K11 Patch Details Released

My player is unplayable now. They ONLY run plays and will just stand there dribbling the ball in a spot until you get to your spot (they NEVER freestyle) and since your overall is so low, they NEVER run plays for you. I'm lucky to get 3 shots a game now. They won't even take the picks that you set for the ball handler because they are so insistent on running the play. I stand right beside their defender and set a pick and he just sets there dribbling. My player went from a very fun mode to pretty much unplayable for me.

Uh oh, thanks for the heads up.

Luckily I am a point guard, but also one for Miami who often has LBJ or Wade bringing the rock up court. So that could be trouble.

What position are you playing?

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

I play online and im loving watching the cheesers get frustrated and quit because their full court passes and dunk fests are no more. I love that there is absolutely ZERO lag for free throws and jumpshots. However i feel like im missing too many wide open mid range shots with perfect releases. But that is better than EVERY single decent release mid range shot being automatic no matter the defense.

Those wide open misses and the fact that its absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to get an offensive rebound now are the only negatives.

I feel like there is greater reward to playing great defense now. Less "thats bullsh*t" moments so far. And thats cool they fixed the Cavs court didnt expect that, or the socks.

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

Only played a half so far but the lowered bumping on drive for the cpu is nice so far.

CP3(cpu) is lighting billups (me) up. Now when Chris attacks and we make contact I can back off the contact and in most instances because of that mismatch need to or he can turn the corner.. When I do that he steps back and pops the shot... Basically I have a healthy respect for his ability to blow past me on the dribble. Yet when I do play off him and beat him to the angle h doesn't just blow past me.

So its very early but so far it seems like a great balance for the cpu. Game feels really really good to me more open and yet more structured at the same time. LOVING it but again its just a half.

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

The one thing I notice in my one game vs the CPU. Was when I dropped the CPU in the open court. He reached for the steal. I went behind the back and drove in for the layup. It perfect!!!

I got 3 games in this morning one vs a human. And all we did was try doing the spin dunk over and over and over again. Charges actually work in the lane (not like 2k9 & 10 all over the court).

Anyone notice any jersey corrections ????

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

Everything seems to work great; however, I feel like everytime I make a post move the ball gets stripped on the way up. At first I had no problems with it since I was posting up a guard; however, it happened again (twice) later on when I was matching up with a big man. Maybe the "ball security" rating actually plays a role now.

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

Lets not change ball security silder so quickly lol

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

I forgot to check that.. I know the Dallas road secoundary had a problem with the numbers being too high.

Looks like the high bank lay ups are gone.

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

Just simmed through 2015 in Association. The coach firings have indeed been fixed, but I noticed in the second season there were still only four trades the entire year, plus none in the following draft. It did go back to normal afterwards, so it seems like an isolated incident. I actually forgot to check for the home/away record splits, whoops. Drafted players overall ratings as a whole have been reduced too, but there's still some absolute studs in there. The first overall pick in 2011 was an 87 overall point guard. He didn't ever really improve from there though.

The one thing that's still in Association that bothers me is free agency gets broken after a couple of years. Through the first four years everything looked okay, with the only player I'd really call a star hitting free agency being Monta Ellis. The year after that was a little too much though. There were five players rated 90 or above and another fifteen players rated 89-80. Beneath that is the usual smattering of players rated in the mid-70s wanting eight million per year. This leads to a lot of these players remaining in free agency at the start of the season, including two generated players rated at 91 overall who average 20/10.

It's certainly irritating, but it's not really a dealbreaker. I figure that if I play every single game plus playoffs I'll MAYBE get through one season by the time The Show 11 starts stealing away playing time. Onto gameplay!

Re: NBA 2K Patch Impressions Thread

What I've noticed so far:

The paint is a painful place to be! I usually play with the Rockets, and with Yao and Scola I usually dominate in the paint... Not so much, I gotta re-learn some stuff... I can normally get uncontested hook shots with Yao... Not anymore, he drew the triple team as he started to shoot, and Gasol blocked it OVER the backboard... twice, I think awareness has been improved too.

Having said that, big men aren't having as much trouble with the little guys. About 2 minutes ago, I had Yao with a mismatch on Matt Barnes, he went over the top of him like Blake Griffin a couple of nights ago, I've never seen that before in this years game.

Way more contact on layups. I'm finally seeing the big dunks getting turned into tough layups/fouls with even tougher layups with them.

Rebounding looks real now! Balls are sailing over heads, because the guys don't jump so high, which are causing long rebounds, something I NEVER saw before the patch.

Custom arena music is all working perfect for PS3.

Turnovers look realistic... I didn't know if they would be able to pull off players who weren't looking at the ball being oblivious to the pass, but they are, it makes things a little easier to move the ball around, but the passing is still a lot harder than 2k10.

I think that's it... My favourite sports game ever just got better! Better go play some more
