No it applies to the game. It doesn't matter what roster you use every thing is available for any player.

Sorry fellas but they where not hard coded into the players DNA. I tested it many times. Some players where but not everybody. Some of the bigs like Duncan did not have thier package at all.

Also the very second you edited one of the players that didn't have thier package set in the edit and was coded in was changed to whatever it showed on the edit screen. They where not HARDcoded at all. I tested it many times. Derrick Rose had D. Wade's dunk package coded in the game but the very second I edited him it changed to the althetic guard package that it showed in the edit screen. Same thing happened to Josh Smith. He had his packaged coded in but as soon as I edited his ball handling it became Dwight's dunk package. That's why the where changing the packages every since the first roster update.

This is a tough one. I don't know if fatigue is now working relative to qtr length, but at 12 mins the fatigue still seemed too light. Could just be the Nuggets, but I felt like players were getting tired more pre-patch.

Same with me Ninja. I had NO issues with the system prepatch. It didn't alter it to the point where realistic subs can't occur however, I liked the fact that I had to constantly monitor fatigue levels prepatch. I felt like a coach. Now most of my player wont fatigue(three bars or less) until close to the end of the first quarter.

DC....unless i just hadnt seen them yet...ive seen some more duncan, wade, ginobli moves off the top of the head....i figured it was a result of the packages not being assigned...but if they are hardcoded i guess i just hadnt seen them...

I don't know about as far as the D-League goes as far as the dynamic attendence but for NBA games it was added in the 10/22 roster update. Even after the patch if you are using a roster that was based before 10/22 you won't get the dynamic attendence. I tested with a game of Grizz vs Bobcats in Memphis with a roster that was based off of an earlier roster update. The arena was full. Then I loaded up a newer roster played the same game and there was empty seats.

So looks like the patch didn't do anything about that for earlier rosters.

That I don't know yet. I haven't had a chance to really test it and see if it is different now after the patch. I will be looking into that today.

I am referring to the autosave glitch. Autosave remains on when saved at OFF.

I was already having fun with the game despite all the issues pre-patch and now... it is like night and day.

1. Smoother gameplay.
2. Better player control.
3. Better A.I. defensively.
4. Physical play in the paint.
5. Reduced lead passing in the post.

Just to name a few of the things I have noticed so far. If your not use to the iso-motion controls then I'd advise you guys to practice more because your definitely going to have to create shots for your player(s). Like thinking your always going to drain the three in your opponents face

Your also not going to be able to simply muscle your way around the basket and score which is a good thing.

I have yet to attempt an online game but I hope the patch aides in preventing the cheesy gameplay tactics most tend to use.

I think there are a lot more aspects of the game improved to sit and worry about some headband colors that can be addressed via roster updates as so many have stated already so please read more before posting.
