Everythin Broke
This is pretty much what i can gather from reading on this board about this game. Ain't nobody enjoying it because it's...."Dunks are tough, but when a 35 footer come rainin out the sky...it'll wire you up"Tags: None -

Re: Everythin Broke
When I actually get to play? Absolutely. Only thing that is severly bugging me at the moment is the foul glitch in PNO. There are annoying things, but it's overall an enjoyable game.
No game is going to be perfect, and part of this site is discussing what's good and what's not, so that any developer that reads this knows what the basketball fans among us are thinking about the game. Doesn't necessarily mean that griping just to gripe is okay, but most, if not all the people I've seen posting are playing 2k because they genuinely enjoy it.

Re: Everythin Broke
I am. Yes, I hate the CPU defense AI sometimes and the random times when my defender gets pushed away from his man by a random player, but other than those times I'm really enjoying it.
Far and away better than 2k16 imo, but some obvious places to improve.

Re: Everythin Broke
I for one am enjoying the game despite the defensive flaws. One may even classify it as major game breaking flaw with the poor defensive rotation logic that NBA talent honestly should not even make, let alone the high school junior varsity squad.
Even when I completely turn down defensive help to zero and defensive awareness to one hundred, questionable defensive break down happen. Honestly, I wouldn't even call them breakdowns. They're simply something other than basketball mishaps. Basketball mishaps aren't represented properly. I've managed to self band-aid the defense by simply taking control of all my off-ball defenders. It's an ongoing legacy from what I've read, but apparently this year takes the cake.
As of this point, this will likely be my last NBA2k basketball game if the defense is not completely top priority. Not simply top priority, but actually injecting a fix.Comment

Re: Everythin Broke
I did an experiment today with the Celtics and Bucks where i put all players Help Defense IQ at 99 and it was crazy the difference it made. Seeing bigs rotate over after a man is beat and swat a shot was a beautiful thing to behold. Of course an edit like that defies conventional wisdom though."Dunks are tough, but when a 35 footer come rainin out the sky...it'll wire you up"Comment

Re: Everythin Broke
I've been a huge fan of this series for years, and my mind was set on 2k17 being the best sports game I have ever experienced. How this game shipped like this, is baffling. The defense, and I use that term as loosely as possible, is downright unplayable. The worst team in the game will shoot 55%, if you're lucky - and the worst players play like Jordan. 2K has always been reliable, when it came to the better teams winning, and the worst players playing bad. I never expected this.
The badge system is also terrible. Whoever is in charge of the rosters, and the badges, seems to have taken the year off.. How does Ben Simmons have less badges than Kay Felder, and TJ McConnell? He doesn't even have a flashy passer badge. This can be forgiven, since we can fix it ourselves, but the game play/defense is ridiculous.
This isn't going to take a simple patch - it's going to take a major patch, and I'm still not confident it'll be addressed.Comment

Re: Everythin Broke
Is that smarter help defense "IQ" or is defense help "strength"? Settings says "strength" not IQ. I even tried turning the defensive awareness to 100 and that didn't do much. It's the leaving guys open and players being out of position and not picking up their man that's the predicament.I did an experiment today with the Celtics and Bucks where i put all players Help Defense IQ at 99 and it was crazy the difference it made.

My bad man i should have been more clear, i changed each individual players Help Defense IQ rating to 99. I didnt touch the sliders. Not sure what changing each individual players defensive IQ to 99 would do."Dunks are tough, but when a 35 footer come rainin out the sky...it'll wire you up"Comment

Re: Everythin Broke
I've never modified anyone's attribute. Where is that setting and approximately how long does that take? Is there a global setting. Or do I have to go into each team and every single individual and boost their defensive IQ?Comment

Re: Everythin Broke
I dont know how to do global edits if there are any...but with the new Quick Edit feature itll take all of 3 minutes to go in and change an attribute or 2 for 2 teams.
Im on the PS4, so for me the way i do it is to go to edit roster...hit the Start/Options button for Quick Edits....go over to the attribute you want to edit and use the right stick to change it to whatever number you wanna give and just go to the next player until all the players are done. Super easy and super quick."Dunks are tough, but when a 35 footer come rainin out the sky...it'll wire you up"Comment

Re: Everythin Broke
This is not a general gaming board. This is a sim sport specific board (originally at least, it has grown much larger. Props Steve!)
People here are going to notice even small bugs. Things like sim stats, POE changes, draft class progression, injury frequency, etc...are going to be noticed here, and rightly so.

Re: Everythin Broke
All they need to do is punish steal spamming teams in pro am. It's so aggravating having 4 guys reach at you instead of just playing good sound defense
Also blocking is still out of control. Midget armed players who did so just to improve their shooting should not be blocking shots at a high rateComment
