NHL 2K10 Patch List

The NHL 2K10 patch list has been posted.

Quote:

GAMEPLAY
• Fixed soft crash with referee not dropping the puck when playing with slower speed settings.
• Retuned the default sliders to make gameplay faster.
• Retuned the speed for acceleration and launches, allowing the user to break out mid launch.
• Players can now speed burst during crossover animations.
• Pinning has now been made easier, and can be initiated with the check button at slower speeds.
• Stick sweeps and poke checks retuned to more accurately knock the puck away when hitting the puck or stick rather than the puckhandler.
• Retuned shot velocity on rebounds and loose pucks.
• Retuned one-timer animations so players closer to the net will now deflect the puck rather than take slap shots.
• One-timers are now more difficult and will be missed more often if the player isn’t in good position.
• Briefly disable loose shots when sweeping your stick without the puck and then gaining possession.
• Penalties are slightly reduced globally.
• Retuned how the AI clears the puck on Penalty Kills.
• Reduced the number of diving poke checks done by goalies.
• Retuned defensive AI related to blue line pressure and defensive zone play.
• AI will now better react to drop passes.
• Slightly increased the aggressiveness of the AI in their own offensive zone if they are on a penalty kill.
• More aggressive behaviors for offensive players after the puck enters the attacking zone.
• User should now have better control over the player when in a shot block animation.
• Players will now help out more in a pinning situation.
• AI is more aggressive on defense during odd man rushes.

ONLINE
• Fixed de-sync related to custom soundtracks in online games.
• Made default online difficulty harder in unranked games.
• Add ability to sign in to cooperative franchise games from the Team Select screen, allowing for multiple users to play from the same console.
• Fixed OT Losses not tracking correctly in online play.
• Allow custom sliders to be used in unranked matches.
• Fixed the bug where you will randomly gain control of the goalie in Team Up mode.
• Fixed the issue so that users will always maintain the same color during Team Up mode.
• Fixed the issue with the speed burst bar / player icon flickering in Team Up mode.
• Fixed a disconnect issue that occasionally occurred while the server was down.
• Fixed an occasional disconnect problem in league games when line changes are made.
• Fixed an issue that would cause league games to sometimes abort at the end of the loading screen.
• Fixed an issue when the leader of a Pick-Up party leaves the party in the lobby.

GENERAL
• Reduced puck shadow size by 20%.
• In Reelmaker, added the ability to turn off the cursor like in replay (hit both bumpers simultaneously).
• Fantasy Drafts now reset all player glove colors to team color instead of custom.

Via Ronnie.

You can probably expect the patch within a month, probably quite sooner. I will update you with an exact date when I have it.

It will definitely be interesting to see how the game plays after the patch.

True, if it truly does all this and does it well. I think this will be an amazing hockey game!

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List

Looks good so far. I'm a little disappointed I didn't see much about goalies though, other then diving saves. Also, no cosmetic issues (i.e. goalie masks) were addressed. Seems to be mostly AI code issues which I'm content with. It's a long list and hopefully it's tested properly as to not "over-fix" the game. Good job!

I figured as much, but you never know what you can do with a roster update or patch. Either way I'm not heartbroken over it. I'm excited to see how much the fixes will change the game

I can fix some goalie mask coloring with a roster update, but that's about it. If there is any notes on goalie masks you think could be better then definitely feel free to post them here and I'll see what I can do.

On some of the goalie masks you can't change all the colors. They have the option but it still keeps it the same colors. One for example is Toskala only can change the main color, but you can't change the other colors.

Shadow care to comment on whether or not this patch will be coming to the ps3 as well, thanks.

Shadow, can you confirm if this patch will be released for the PS3 as well?

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List

Great list of fixes! Thanks Shadow!

While I'm eagerly awaiting the patch, I'm equally dreading the possibility of having to adjust sliders again because of the gameplay tuning. But, I'll take a patch and tweak over no patch any day.

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List

Very comprehensive list.... thx very much for listening to customer feedback. I may have missed it, but my questions are:

Will there be any fix for shot and clearing animations, especially making backhand clearing attempts and some shots stay as backhand and not switching to awkward looking forehand attempts?

When advancing the puck from the defensive zone and through the neutral zone, it seems that aiming to pass off the boards is ineffectual (I use 80 human pass with 33 pass aim assist, which should be more than enough to accomplish a bank pass on pro control). Instead it goes straight up ice to the receiver. Will the patch address bank passes at all?

Thx so much and possibly putting 2K back into the hockey gaming race and into the lead where it belongs!

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List

that's a great list....

my 2 favorites are the d-men agressiveness tuning in the zone and odd man rushes.

If this is really well done.....the game will be great. D-men a.i was the only reason I stopped playing. The rest is icing on the cake for me, but happy nonentheless.

Hopefully, the changes are very pronounced.

Thankyou for posting the list!

Also, as some others have asked, will this patch be available for ps3 owners?

Glad to see that 2k is trying to bring their game back to respectability. Also glad that they are slowly 'de-glitching' the game.

Great fix-list, however there's no mention of backward-to-forward skating transition fixes... (big problem with user control)

Also, although this is minor, it would have been great for them to fix the goalie 'warping' and 'immediate resetting' after a goal... just an aesthetic touch, but NHL 2K8 had realistic goalie animations following goals.

I look forward to the day that 2k fans can just pop their game in their console, and PLAY the hell out of it instead of trying to 'repair' or investigate 'workarounds' for gameplay or game mode inadequacies.

Thanks Shadow - is this the first and last patch that 2K10 will see?

Cheers,
Cozmicoz

Same here, if its fixed in a manner that actually makes the game fun and removes the frustration factor from watching dmen just skate away from the puck on a regular basis, I'll go back to it. On the whole thats the biggest flaw with 2k10 and really with 2k hockey from 2k4 on, CPU lack of puck awareness.

I'm actually not playing any hockey at all right now due to Dragon Age on the PC and Modern Warfare 2 on the 360.

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List

Answer the question on what systems the patch will be released for, it isnt like we are asking the secret of life. Just be honest instead of leaving it till the last minute.

You know the longer they dont answer the question the more i have my doubts.

Q-What systems will the patch be released for?

A-?

Will 2k beats now be turned off during the game when we move this presentation slider to zero. Thx...

While I generally agree, i'm sure PS3 owners remember 2K8 all too well. 2K8 was patched on 360 but not on PS3. Of course, the PS3 user base was much smaller then. Still, if I was still playing this on PS3, I'd be nervous too.

LOL!...this is my reaction too. When you say faster, I hope you mean that the game animations were made smoother and you got rid of the fast twitchy transistions and made the movements more natural and fluid all around?

This game as it is now, makes my eyes hurt and gives me a headache to play because of these choppy unnatural movements....otherwise nice list

Shadow could you chime in on this if possible when you have a chance?

Except for the fact that the PS3 did not get the 2k8 patch, and also did not get the parametric camera angle and custom soundtracks in 2k10. The PS3 is all too familiar with "the shaft". ;)

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List

boy, makes me glad that I have 2 systems. If I had only the ps3, I would be so anxious right now. This patch has the potential to really make 2k10 a great great game.

2k10 pre-patch was so cloooose, but the d-men ruined it. Prior to finding out that gamekiller, I thought I was in hockey heaven. if they really put work into the d-men....I can honestly say that 2k10 will be the BEST game in the 2k series and could even be the best hockey game of all time.

One thing I missed about playing 2k10 was the great soundtracks....hehe....look forward to enjoying the music in practice mode like I did before. Hope this baby drops in late november......

Totally agree. Though even with the passive D I have been enjoying the game with 06v3 sliders. But if it does make the D tougher, this game will be the greatest hockey game in my opinion.

Re: NHL 2K10 Patch List

As i've said time and time again, no PS3 patch and 2k deserves to be second fiddle to EA no matter how more "sim" it may be. You release a product you support it, not half-*** it.
