I thought zig zagging was fixed?

They need to add lock on Defense from 2k8. Its impossible to shut anything down online consistently. No one moves the ball or runs sets either. Its mainly cheese and pick n roll

Lol at take a step back, that's what the offensive player wants.

If you stay close and practically hug them they can blow past you, if you sag off to cut off driving lanes they can take the shot. You have to decide what you want to live with.

They really need to make the MyPark character separate from the Career character, have them upgrade separately etc and limit them to being elite in only one offensive and one defensive area.

So if you have 99 lay up/dunk your 3pt is capped at 75-80. And if you have 90+ 3 point shooting your lay up/dunk is capped at 75-80.

Exactly movement on defense is fine. The problem is the lag that makes all the movements delayed. Offline is perfect, gameplay is great, online is atrocious .

I think you guys will enjoy the experience much more. "Zig-zag" swiss and behind the back cheddar are both addressed in there too. It's going to be a great patch imo. Full, approved notes when patch is released.

so much cheese to address.... i hope they also fix the shot clock cheese
and if they added a bit of rebounding balance then for me everything would be much better off

The way the game is now defense is none exist in the park regardless what you do. But I would rather have a guy blow by me and get help at the rim then step back and let someone shoot open threes.

I don't know, with the input lag guys really struggle to make shots. I would rather watch them brick the 3. Once they get to the rim dunks are pretty much a guarantee regardless of how much help D you get.

It's easy to make shots when you pick a quick shot then make the release quick...looks ugly as (you know) but it works and again another cheesy thing imo.

If you step back and try and anticipate someone with limitless range hits a 30 foot three...because, you know, that happens a lot.

If you have maxed out d (like me, because I rather play d than offense) and try and play lockdown d like Tony Allen it just doesn't work...the zig zag and behind the back is so impossible to defend right now you just gotta fight fire with fire and gun back.

As of right now the thing that works best is just stay a little back and have your settings where you always defend shots...if you got long arms and good ability to read the cheese you can usually get a good shot contest most of the time. But then when they wanna drive you're at their mercy still.
