I'm not feeling this patch. It seems like anytime I get close to the defender with the ballhandler he goes into the protect the ball animation. I've only played two games so far but it seems like the patch made the game worse to me. I'll have to play some more later.

If I come across like a Jerk on these points, then so be it I guess, but I feel like most of this is simply frustration with losing, and people flat refusing to adapt.

Ive played about 20 games of dynasty mode, and probably another 20 or 30 play now games..and I dont get slaughtered on the boards routinely by the CPU.

There are things you can do with your coaching settings, you can rebound manually.

On defense, I play 100% on ball..with no slider adjustments, and I guard to tendency.

There is no magic tricks involved. I have run the CPU off of the court, I have barely beat them and I have also lost my share.

Ive had a great competitive balance between myself and the CPU..on default all star.

I cannot speak to how everyone is playing..but if you are getting hammered by CPU runs routinely, and getting smashed on the boards consistantly, the problem isnt the game...its the user, refusing to adjust the way he is playing.

I agree with the feel..its weird...One of the more bothersome things is ONLINE...Guys will bomb 3's with tight D on them but if I'm at the rim or within 10 ft they can't hit a wide open put back or midrange jumper...How the hell you gonna bomb 3's and not hit wide open shots...and I mean guys catching the ball, scrambling back to the 3pt line and launching them.

Also in transition D how does my D not get back and always seem to give up an open 3 in the corner???

I don't get it...Online play was better b4 the patch now its just a mess IMO...I will give a few more shots but after that if this game does not come through or the devs do not address this game soon...Its on the shelf and going back..This is very disappointing as post patch I was really enjoying the game on Superstar with the work around to make fatigue work...Now its no subs...no fatigue and J.R. Smith doing his best impression of Teen Wolf

Played it more last night, and there's definitely things changed here for the worst. Three point shooting seemed ridiculous, as everyone was hitting them. Boston never got set in an offense, almost every trip the 2nd guy to touch the ball shot. Rondo had 24 shots against me while Garnett had 7. UGH.

There are some things fixed, but it seems like more is broke than before.

I'm glad more folks are seeing this...This game IMO is almost unplayable...It went from sim to a 3pt-fest and arcade play.

The pace of the game is all jacked up.

That's clearly noticeable..the CPU seems to be in "7 seconds or less mode."

They are also forcing all kinds of passes into traffic, in the half court which is leading to unnecessary turnovers and breaks.

I can now break guys down off of the dribble easily, with guys like Steve Blake.

They've dummied down the game for the user, and its a little irritating.

I hope the complainers are happy now.

While I really admire the development team for putting so many fixes in the patch, including the post up button that I really like, I have to say that I liked the game better pre-patch.

Like others have seen here, I have also see the CPU offense try to get rid of the ball in most cases (not all the time) in the first 7 seconds of the shot clock. I've also seen some animations around the basket occur way too fast. As for 3 pt shooting percentages they seem ok in the few games i've played.

I general, the game feels different now, and I think I may clear the cache, and forgo any DNA updates until these issues get resolved. I had fun before the patch playing with left4dead's sliders on pro difficulty, and I think I'll go back to it.

So if I delete my live file will it go back to prepatch settings? Online would still be wack, but at least I'd be able to start my dynamic season.

Nope, Dymanic Season goes on the servers. No patch, no way to go online or on the servers.

Yeah, I suppose you're right. Damn this is disappointing.

I dunno fellas ... i kinda like the patch. Fix the Goaltending issue(which I noticed before the patch) and the OT thing and I'll be happy.

Re: NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360 Patch Only, PS3 to Follow)

This was my point in the wide open shots missed thread. I felt, feel like the majority of posters that were now posting were the whiners and the dev team would over do this patch to satisfy them. I was afraid the "squeaky wheel would get the oil" and it appears it has. The game definitely feels dumber, still playable and overall a good game (not counting for the bugs) but it feels like it's taken a few steps away from the "sim" level it originally was. I agree with the poster that said we just needed to get better at the game it blows me away to see guys say it's not the way I play when there is another credible poster getting opposite results. Unless they have multiple versions of the game it's absolutely the way you play, LOL. Oh, well it is what it is.

Re: NBA Live 10 Patch Impressions (360 Patch Only, PS3 to Follow)

lets see, pre patch, the cpu offense didnt get into the offense fast enough, post patch, now they shoot too damn fast. is there any pleasing people anymore other than a exact representation of the NBA? you're not going to get it. the goaltending and the OT, yes, if they are broke, fix them. and the online, whatever, i dont play online, but if thats messed up, then that needs fixed. but other than that, i think the way the game is played is pretty damn realistic. its just like with Madden, its as if people want the exact same thing to happen every play or every game. people are too damn picky. i like the game since the patch, fixed a few of the problems that bugged me so i'm happy. im not gonna cry over Lebron only taking 15 shots instead of 25.

Ugh. I haven't dl'ed the patch yet, but these impressions have me a bit worried. I loved the game, warts and all, pre-patch. Is it really that much different post patch? Maybe some authentic DNA updates will help?
