1.11 update October 23

Re: 1.11 update October 23

Ok so the gameplay definitely feels different, I reset the sliders to default and the cpu was not going crazy on steals and the steals that they did get were legit bad decisions not me just tryna do a simple pass and watch it get intercepted like before. The CPU's are not making every single shot either.

The funniest **** was not even lying after the game updated, I played Suns vs Warriors (All-Star) and KD got wide open for a 3 and air-balled it LOL it was like at the beginning of the game too. Anyways I noticed the lack of foul calls so I maxed out all fouls User and CPU and it felt way better. I got smoked though but it was fun. Getting open in the mid-range is kinda difficult. I kept dominating with Ayton and then later on I would give it to Ayton and they would double team and the open guy would sometimes cut to the bucket which was cool.

The gameplay is definitely better then the 1.07 patch, I'll have to spend a bit more time though. But finally enjoying the game again

All I can say is play more. You’ll see the game is exactly the same. It’s the nature of live. Jekyl and Hyde.

I wanted to get in a few games before I commented. Played 4 games had some good, some bad, and some horrific, just like before today’s patch. I’m fairly confident nothing changed in regards to steals or blocks. Some games are good some are insane.

I will say I saw less sliding and wonkiness but I may may have just been lucky those 4 games.

Re: 1.11 update October 23

I feel like on superstar the one league the gm plays a lot more like it did at release. The cpu still blocks me but they block it out of the air. Only auto blocks came when they should have, and the passing lanes seemed more open. Had a bunch of and ones, LeBron made a bunch of tough lay ups on me.



I dunno. Maybe I'm crazy or maybe they tuned LA to be trash but it felt good again. Finally will finish icon I think. Just need to play like 2 or 3 more gms.



Lucky me my only complaint was offline superstar. We'll see how it goes when I'm not facing Mcgee but kuz was making some lay ups around me so I do think it's better. Made a bunch of hooks.

Superstar level was unequivocally tweaked with this patch! Couldn't hit open jump shots and some open layups on a consistent basis, stealing and blocking were more erratic and the game felt stiffer! The one often overlooked aspect of tweaks is it impacts the fluidity of the game similar to the induced stiffness that's often observed when one increases the defense focused sliders within the game. The game feels better now, more organic. The last patch improved All Star some but this latest patch has made Superstar more playable!

Just finished another game. Joel Embiid played the whole game and had 11 blocks

To be honest, if your playing against Joel Embiid and he has 11 blocks, definitely not the game. Need to kick it out. And if your the one doing the blocking, that's user skill too.

If you get certain cpu vs cpu stats that's a little concerning. But I'm not as concerned with one user having high or low blocks. Or the CPU playing against you. You could just be getting better or worse on the game, the only real way to tell is if other players, on normal sliders, and times, get the same results as you

I know how to play the game man. I’m one of the few that actually stick up for Lives blocking mechanics .When you have 4-5 blocks by the whole team in every other game but Embiid gets 11 himself it’s not good. Not only him getting 11 but it’s how he does it. He didn’t have 1 foul against him. I’m not even going to waste my time arguing that it’s somehow the users fault that he doesn’t sub out, doesn’t foul and blocks everything with in a 10 foot radius of the rim.

Re: 1.11 update October 23

WHOA they ramped up the trades in franchise it seems.

I’m only on week 3 of the season and 76ers traded 2 draft picks and Wilson chandler to the kings for Kosta Koufos

Celtics traded Marcus smart to the suns for a 1st round pick.

Re: 1.11 update October 23

I dunno. Like I said I haven't seen the double clutch animation in awhile. I got blocked a lot still but they were blocks out of the air or at the top of my hands not canned blocks. The part I disliked was how it seemed like you kept getting sucked into a canned animation and, to be fair, I remember posting when them gm dropped that I was gonna try to go at embiid and he rocked my ish. He basically does get a ton of canned blocks. So do other good cs. Like cuz. But it was like that I powered thru lonzo for an and 1. Passing lanes seemed way more open. Sure the cpu is capable of closing them and getting on weird runs, but I mean in my opinion the different game play per game has been there since the beginning. In the patch, they made it so that it was that way every game. Like I said Kyle Korver autoblocked me, that was trash. If Korver gets a hand on my shot I don't mind. I just wanna feel like it's up to me to put up the shot I feel is right and if they block it OK. But like you said some players have huge auto block areas and embiid is one of the worst.



Overall I think freedom of movement is considerably better and bunny lay ups drop. Sure some games you miss bunnies and get cold but you can work your way back up. To me, it's an instant difference but who knows maybe I'm tripping. I know it was actually fun for the first time in awhile. Had a 116-110 or something w vs LA. Will try more and see tho.

Edit: plays great to me. This is da live I love. Hope you guys find out the same thing.

Co-sign. Blocking for the CPU in the nba play now mode is over powered.

Re: 1.11 update October 23

Well I played some more and the game does feel better, I'm just really glad that I can pass now without being paranoid. But I gotta say they really need to bring back the mid-range game it's just w.e right now. I honestly have not had that many problems when it comes to blocking as you guys have mentioned. It's been fine for me. They still gotta fix quite a bit of stuff. They updated the rosters but even then they got things wrong. Like TJ Warren is starting over Ariza, Okobo starting over Canaan.

Can someone try this cause I never got the call, but the cpu was dribbling up the court and I guarded the guy tight so BOTH his legs cross the mid-court line and then he bumped off so he went behind the mid-court line, isn't that backcourt violation?! I did it couple times and got no call

[CujoMatty]

Re: 1.11 update October 23

Ya it seems everyone on Reddit as well are saying it’s a lot better now. Like I said I’m not really noticing a difference with blocks and steals but could be because I have steals set at 0 and that Joel Embiid game left a bad taste in my mouth blocking wise. I will say he was a problem even before any of the patches so could be different I guess.

I definitely have seen less crazy stuff and goofy animations which make for a much better experience.

Re: 1.11 update October 23

Yeah I put down the sliders to 0 as well but after the update last night I wanted to see how the game would be at default and it was much much better. Maxing out the foul sliders was also important to a better experience. It' hard for me to create space to get a shot up the CPU is glued onto when I go mid-range or 3

Lower contest shot slider. It’s more of a band aid than a fix. The defender will still be on you but it will give you a better chance of making the shot if it’s a marginal contest. I have mine at 25 and I feel like it’s given me the right balance of made shots to misses.

I'm on the fence about purchasing this game. What about it makes you two like it better then 2k?
