Problem is that we shouldn't wait for a patch that was patched on 2k16. Out of the box it should play like patched 2k16. I'm sure the patch will fix it but c'mon....this is just bad form.

I'm just going to wait for the patch to play.

I think you are absolutely right about that. Clearly, someone fell short somewhere. The issue comes with understanding how complex the development>publishing process is. If John is working on shooting and does his job perfectly, but Mary adds in some settings that messes it up or submits the wrong file, not only is it not John's fault, but he can't go online and talk about it until he figured out what Mary did. Once he does that, he can't go online and deflect blame or discuss the issue in a way that outs Mary. The best thing for John to do is to fix it (FIX IT!!!) and show up after he has a stable build with the fix in.

I'm not saying that has happened in this case, I'm saying that it does happen. All the time. While I disagree with how 2k handles these scenarios from a communication standpoint, and I CERTAINLY disagree with a lot of the issues I'm seeing in the game I paid 59.99 for, it's not rational to try to identify cause or blame without having intimate knowledge of the entire process.

Just as an example, I don't know who is in charge of putting moving screen calls in the game, but I have not seen one called. I'm in February of MyCareer and have played a handful of ProAM games. Not one moving screen call. How does that affect a defense? Real life KG would act a fool if he knew he could get away with all these moving screens

2K already brought Da Czar in, why not bring this guy? Imagine Da Czar, Sam Pham, and Beluba? That'd be THE DREAM TEAM

Not sure about MyCareer, but I know it works for Play Now and MyLeague games. Press start, then scroll down to "Gameplan" > "Defensive Settings" > Press R2 twice. To get to the second screen to do the Pre-Rotate for just the big man, Press R1 a few times.

Just to clarify, you can't so this out of a game? It only can be done in game? It'd be nice if it were in the MyLeague menus

Yes unfortunately I can't exactly find it in the MyLeague menus either because I have to keep setting it up before I tip off. I haven't found a way to save it and keep it set unfortunately.
