Re: CPU Timeout problem, reason inside

the timeout problem stems from association only, but for alot of people that dont go online (myself included) it hurts the appeal of the game.. but im tryin to make the most of it... i work but not made of money so the 20$ is appealing to me... i just wish theyd gimme a finished product 75% of the time... eh thats what we deal with

how hard would this timeout glitch be to patch tho?


All they have to do is figure out a way to give us settings that set both user & cpu timeouts on auto.. shouldn't be hard.. right?

People need to realize it was a small mistake due to the fact that these QA testers play each other not the CPU. If the QA guys were playing the CPU they would've found the CPU timeout settings was wrong too.

That can't be true. Someone had to play it against the CPU, to see if they were any crashes huge graphical glitches etc..

The thing though is that it is possible that the none of the testers caught this. I don't think they playtest games in franchise mode.

This has unfortunately killed my love for this game, I play nothing but Franchise modes in sports games and this has put the dagger in for me with this game. It hurts because other than this, the game is OUTSTANDING, I have been playing Live 05 in Franchise solely because of this, I still like ESPN NBA 2K5 much MUCH better, but this has been a deal breaker for me. I can't get over it, I have hardly played it since I realized this my second day of having it. This was a HUGE *F*U* by VC no matter how you put it, this needs patched!

So VC had testers play head to head and didn't have them test the CPU AI? LOL! Now that is comical if true, what the hell is the point of having testers. The majority of the people who buy the game are going to play against the CPU.

Re: CPU Timeout problem, reason inside

Last night I played a couple more games and really didn't find it too annoying... It should be fixed if possible, but if not, I would still stay with this. It's not like the CPU is extremely smart in dealing with timeouts anyway (when turned on under single-game mode)... It's really mechanically (just foul the first guy touches the ball regardless how close the game is) and to me, it's just a practise of freethrows (since I wouldn't be stupid enough to throw it to Shaq).

In real NBA games, I believe if there's still decent time left, they would delay the foul and wait until the lower FT% guy has the ball. Not the case here. As long as I inbound the ball, the guy's fouled and they're not smart enough to force me to pass it to a poor FT guy...

Just my $.02...

Re: CPU Timeout problem, reason inside

i doubt that the testers actually played a full association season. there are other bugs related to it that should have been addressed. it's the same for nfl 2k5. i'm pretty sure the testers just play "pick-up games" and try to catch as many bugs as they can that way. it's why the franchise modes have all these issues which seem obvious to us because we actually use the franchise modes.

VC needs to dedicate at least one guy/girl that will play all 82 games in multiple franchise seasons. there is no way he wouldn't notice that absolutely no timeouts were being called, or notice the need to turn AI trades off, or need to adjust playbooks, etc....

any volunteers??
