I want to pass to Hibbert - what can I do in this situation? press the pass button - and this happens. so does this mean that I have to Jab / Pass fake etc before the pass? is this is a rule? how am i going to know when to do what to make this pass ? you say this happens "all the time" in real life - does this mean that it happens more than the opposite of this case which is completion of this what's supposed to be an easy pass ?

the point was to show that post passing is not completely fixed. actually it's probably not the passing it is the defensive awareness.

good ball physics? I am talking about human anatomy.

Human anatomy? REALLY, HUMAN ANATOMY? I'm almost done with this thread, because guys here are pulling ridiculous explanations out their a***s here.

We talkin' about HUMAN ANATOMY. I thought this was a video game.

Also, try actually getting distance between you and the post player. You know, so you can actually pass it over the defender that's guarding you with arc.

Notice the distance of the pass into the post at the end.

Don't blame 2K because you don't understand a simple concept.

lol - sorry, human capability I guess. my point was I cannot react that fast (unless I steal button mash) and I play against an opponent that can.

you are right about the distance thing - I agree. But is it not possible to pass from this distance?

all the videos I posted are to make the point that what the CPU is on the "run" they do everything perfectly/superhumanly and you always have to keep guessing what's not going to work - either it's what seems to be an easy pass (which doesn't work because of lack of animation and the boosted defensive awareness) or a defensive rebound or commiting a foul or block etc.

anyway. I am done with the videos.

Did you go back a page or two and see the videos posted of what 'we' are complaining about.

The evidence is there, the CPU spams the paint with spins, up and unders, etc, etc. They waste the shot clock doing nothing than absurdly go to the paint at will and score and if you play good defense they will get the rebound or something. It's comical.

Sadly this is true...I can beat the CPU on HOF but what i have to do to do it is kinda lame....

I really like 2k12 but i'd have to say overrall 2k11 was better

I'm appreciative of the patch, but can't help but be disappointed. While the passing was improved, the most egregious flaws still remain - unstoppable CPU flick-flicks and no double-teaming.

There are plenty of other issues, but I can selectively overlook them. Those two things I can't.

Ok I must be doing something wrong. How in the world do you get your 3pt shooters to stay behind the arc when driving?

I've been practicing for the past hour and I can't get them to stop crashing to the rim as soon as I try and pass to them.

I'm not using the icon lead passing either.

Little help, anyone?

Is there a crash offensive boards slider during the timeout?

Not sure, but there is one in the coach profile. Not sure why they would make my players run towards the hoop when they're wide on the arch.

3pt tendency still progresses in the offseason, a couple years into association bigs are shooting tons of 3s, kills their, and their teams shooting percentages. Pretty pathetic this wasn't addressed in the patch. And i'm willing to bet it doesn't get addressed in the next patch if there is one. This is the one damn thing I wanted addressed in the patch, and as I expected, it was overlooked. Pretty much proves they don't test multiple years into the association, because it sticks out like a sore thumb by year 3. Pretty disappointing, guess i'll check back next year...

Ok.

I am pleased with this patch. Played 2 games with Allstar/default settings. I am on the 360.

What I saw that I liked:

Your Defense impacts the CPU. Finally. I feel like if I hustle and play good D - I am rewarded. BUT WAIT - there's more. It works both ways. Shots that I was draining pre-patch I was clanking. The CPU defense matters now too.
3rd quarter. The dreaded 3rd quarter. 1st quarter - I was getting trounced going into the quarter and it continued. Cool. 2nd game - I was down by 6 going in - I scored the first 12 points of the quarter - quarter ended tied. It felt ... right.
Passing - good.
The CPU seems less robotic. I saw bad passes, bad footwork and overplaying by the AI.
The CPU ran it's offense much quicker. The number of times a player just dribbled the ball for 15 seconds until the shot clock is under 5 seconds has been GREATLY reduced. I just didn't see it much if at all.

Not perfect - but I am happy.
