NBA 2K17 Patch 1.05 Available Now, Rosters Updated - Full Details Here

[GisherJohn24]

The game feels better. I still think the FG% for cpu is still way too high. I was the dream team tonight and got beat on hall of fame by the current Lakers!. Mind you, I made some bad passes, but they were lights out even bench guys couldn't miss. Shooting about 60% from 3 and 55% from the FG%. I know the currents Lakers squad is good, but I was missing wide open 3's from Stockton and Bird. The ease of shooting for CPU still irks me a bit, I know I can adjust the sliders a bit. But man...

But defensively, things feel better. I still have my big guy not getting down court on occasion but the double team logic and the help D feels much better and I don't feel cheated when I play good D. It's a good patch. With some slider adjustments, mostly for offline, I'm very pleased with this.

Can I sit in on the conversation Nic Brussino has with Rick Carlisle when he explains to him that he will need to miss practice because he has to scan his face for 2K users?

It's a heritage issue lol. Always found it annoying that they connect more users to the servers to track VC in offline modes, but the culprit is staring us straight in the face. It's not a mystery, and there's nothing updated source code ("patch") can do about it. Servers that have been shaky at best for the better part of 15 years, offline users now introduced to the equation to track their earned VC...there's literally no reason to think it'll get better. It's now in the "not until we see it" territory. As a consumer, you should be pissed if you buy NBA 2K for it's online offering, because there's no telling what you'll encounter. As a vet 2K player, you should know this by now. Where you been? (not you specifically ph33, just in general) At some point you have to be the educated consumer who knows what to expect & don't purchase until you know for sure they've taken care of issues you feel strongly about. Otherwise you're banging your head against the wall & wondering where that headache is coming from, & why won't anyone help you out. NBA 2K1 on the Dreamcast. Same server complaints.We're talking a game that came out like 10 months after folks calmed down from the Y2K fears. Decade & a half+. It's disgusting, but it's been disgusting for a long *** time now. People expected a patch to fix this? Lol.

Great Post, "heritage issue", lmao, that is a perfect characterization.

I wish we could marry EA's rocksteady online play with 2k's everything else

Like, it would be just a perfect game

Game seems to play much better on default settings than before. Passes are fixed & I feel like I have more control over my players. I like the overall feel. My CPU teammates still go dumb a little too much but I'll keep playing to see how bad it is.

As far as the updated roster goes I would of liked some contracts to be touched. JR Smith, Oladipo, & Steven Adams. I manually changed them myself of course. Also, I know they can't face scan mid season but some of these end of the bench players can be done better. I've seen a better Rodney McGruder from some of the OS users.

No, but we got to stop thinking video games are going to be perfect. 2k finally addressed some big flaws and I'm happy we got a game to play right as the season gets going.

No one expects a perfect game, they expect progress and a clean experience and actual functionality. I dont think thats too much to ask from a company who has sucked the consumer in the pay to play VC model. Yall just sounding like apologists at this point. When 2k16 had less glitches and more realism, thats not a good thing. Post patch ive lagged out of multiple games and sharpshooters were OP, although I havent ran much since tuning update so ill test that out more.

I was fine paying for VC if that money was going towards better functionality and a better product. But theres glitches like its 2k11 or something, yeesh. I think some of you dont realize this is a forum where raw feedback should be what you want, not censorship. Ya theres noobs who give noob/user error type feedback, which is why all feedback should be taken with grain of salt and contrasted with real basketball logic. But broad brushing all fans who criticize the game as entitled "whiners" is just as bad as saying "waa this game sux" and not being specific.

So shooting fouls in my game just changes possession.

No freethrows.
