NBA 2K16 Patch #4 Available For PlayStation 4, Xbox One & PC - Details Included

Ok... The defensive rotations are sooooooo bad. If I leave my man to double, theoretically the defense should rotate right? Not when the defense is guarding Kyrie Irving and my man was Mozgov. If I choose to leave my man, the CPU IQ is nonexistent.

Also, can we please address the momentum shifts? Or is that something that's impossible? I've said this recently in another thread but I'm not a fan of these guarantees. If I'm beating someone to sleep, they shouldn't be just coming back with ease.
I'm in the middle of a MyCareer game and stopped to write this. No way Steph and Klay combine to miss 6 layups in a quarter. Not to mention I came out of the game with 6 minutes left in the third and up 25 then I go back to start the fourth and the other team is within 3. That's insane. I don't even play online anymore after a dude hit 6 straight contested threes including a half court buzzer beater, as I missed dunk after layup after turnover to come back and win a game I dominated from the start.


Oh yeah! This isn't as much of a big deal because I've learned how to offset it but the shot-making is a little frustrating. I don't mind missing a contested layup every now and then but to go back down and see a guy with a lower rating than the player I just used make a contested three on the very next play is just insane. You guys said you were gonna cut out demigods but all that it's seems you've done is make the CPU the demigod. And no I'm not turning down my difficulty because as an actual baller, the lower levels don't provide a challenge.

All my requests are about making the game more realistic, which you guys said was the goal. If it's inconceivable, let me know. I can always lower my expectations.

Yea I had the CPU rotate off of CP3 to cover DEANDRE JORDAN standing at the 3 point line. My opponent did the expect what I would of have done. Passed it back to CP3 for the wide open 3 smh.......

And the defender was Tyshaun Prince. I would of understand if it was some lowly defense rated player. But Prince would never do that.

Whatever they did to tone down losing the ball it's hard as hell to block dunks. I'm a big man a guards keep Dunking on me at the pro am

in my opinion after patch #4 the gameplay sucks....with patch #3 was perfect...now frenetic....damn!

Patch 4 isn't bad for me. I just hate Mike changed the shooting. 3s shouldn't be easier to make than midrange shots. I thought he'd give us updates when he'd change the shooting %s.

Got a chance to play some NBA Today games the other night against the cpu. It seems a little easier to get by the cpu and a little harder to create contact on players. This creates a much more wide open game than prior to patch 4. This lack of contact can also create some wonky looking moments which have been displayed in some videos in this thread. I really wish they would have just triggered more instances of forced dribble pick ups when people dribble into traffic as a substitute for the various loose ball situations prior to patch 4 that people complained about. A forced dribble pick up would reward the defense when in good position yet give the dribbler an opportunity to keep possession(even though they may be in a bad situation). This may have kept both camps happy without making serious changes that may piss off a certain segment. I'm still a little confused about the cpu defensive rotations but overall I think this patch is a decent one..

You can go right into the defense and the ball stays; they should've kept a balance but now we're onto the other extreme imo. Can't hit shots to save my life, it seems like the already inconsistent 3's are even more inconsistent. Deadeye, Limitless Range, and Microwave and I'll shoot below 30% being wide open...nah, that's bogus. My friend plays at center, has max inside scoring/athleticism/defense/rebounding. He can easily grab 20 boards a game, but can't hit inside shots at all anymore. Has post move badges but is missing even on mismatches in the post. Contact layups seem like they're completely gone, unless you're not near anyone I haven't seen anyone making any at all. The worse parts now: So many pump fakes getting called into fouls. I'm seeing hands up defense now being sucked into animations; not good at all. My friend got called on a foul perfectly contesting a 3 with no contact at all...it was almost hilariously bad. Every person in the world can reach on a drive and get a steal. Stealing was toned down? But it's actually worse...makes sense. I had 5 turnovers in a game, all off reaching on a drive. By a help defender...on the opposite ball hand.....but it's not a foul........riiiight. The good?: I have a little more control of my player.....that's it....literally....... Wow yo, I don't think I've EVER had such a negative experience playing 2K in my life. Even the infamous patch 4 on 15 wasn't that bad too me. People were hitting everything but I just gunned right back..and I was always a good scorer. I pray that this was just a fluke, and maybe the connection is off or it needs to be tuned a little more or SOMETHING... But honestly yo, (IMO, key words) this is the worst patch I've ever, ever seen. They've strayed so very far away from what I remember on day 1. I'll take all the crazy blocks from guards over what happens now any day. To me, this game out of the box was nearly flawless...I'm so disappointed in this game right now it's crazy.

Kind of been my experience in the pro am too. The post game is pretty much pointless in the pro am. Can't finish gimme layups . Maxed inside and can't finish over guards. When the game first came out you could punish smaller players. You still can if you manage to dunk on them. also I boxed the computer out and they called over the back on me? What's the deal with that? The CPU is some kind of auto box out magnet. Also the gameplay is much faster.

On the other hand I have no problem shooting with my guard. I can do post moves without losing the ball (even though I don't hit any drop steps, barely hook shots , up and unders, etc ... Only the post fade works ) I think the pro am was a lot more sim and fun out of the box.

Guys who are getting a lot of fouls, stop using automatic contest shots. It really makes a big difference, its like cheating honestly the way people expect easy shots and you can swat them
