New Title Update (PS4) is NOT "The Patch"

[WTF]

I've played 2 games this evening, and didn't experience any slowdown at all. I think the pace of the game is excellent. I honestly don't think the game has changed anything.

Threw it in just to see if anything changed...didn't really notice anything....CPU tendencies certainly haven't changed....PIP or die

Ok played a half, Knicks/Clips matchup and maybe something didn't go right the first time, but the pace feels better than I previously stated earlier. Not as sluggish, but that's how it felt before today.

Haven't really seen any other changes and I know it's not the patch.

If they could get the CPU to call timeouts, increase the fouls and increase the body contact in the post this will be a solid 7/8 in my book.

This game is agonisingly close to being good ( I agree with your theory of 7/8 out of 10)

My gripes are the roster updates/accessories ,CPU post spin move,blocks,fouls and timeouts

(Short list IMO) I just wish they would tell us what they are updating.. Why must we continually be in the dark? I love that they are updating but couldn't a community leader chime in? Marcus Stephenson was great back in the day for info like this...

Is there any EA reps on the forums these days???

Short list, but those should be at the top of that short list.

I know Scott Gallagher is on the site, he chimed in earlier in this thread.

I think collision detection should be high on that list as well...

EDIT: my bad, you essentially said that, lol

i played two games tonight. didnt notice any sluggishness; pace seemed good to me. still giving up a lot of points in the paint and seeing few shooting fouls. oddly i draw more fouls than the cpu even though they attack the paint way more. its just incredibly hard to stop them around the rim even when im doubling on the catch in the post for the entire game.

its a strange balance. im really enjoying the game especially when my team is on offense. but i dread the cpu when they pass to the paint no matter who has the ball. hopefully the interior defense becomes a little easier but not too easy. defense should be hard just not quite this hard. i would also like to see the cpu try to move the ball around the perimeter more and take some more midrange shots.

Since I noticed the patch kinda late last night, I could only play one game with my Pistons, but I definately saw something different. When usually the games end with me shooting 10 to 12 three pointers and hitting 3-4 of them and the computer hits 1 of 6, then yesterday I was up against the Wolves and
in the first quarter Chase Budinger alone was 5 of 6 from three point land.

Also, neither teams bigs couldn't hit anything from under the basket, changed shots everywhere. There were alot more blocks (Love from Wolves and Drummond from my Pistons each had 4(!) blocks in the first half, all against big men. Guards were still ballet-dancing there way into the paint and scoring with ease, just like before.

So I need to get a few more games to see, if the changes are real. No sluggishness though.
