Does anyone know how to walk the ball up court post patch. It looks like they took this out of the game. I used to be able to walk the ball up by slightly pressing the stick...doesnt work now.

Works just fine as before for me.

EDIT: Hmm... And now I see it NOT work. Seems to not walk in the backcourt.

Ugh, they needed to add an extra gear, not take one away. Pre-patch it was either a slow walk that barely got you past halfcourt within 8 seconds or a full on sprint. Now there's no walk at all? Weak.

Regarding My Player, Has anyone either restarted or continued near the beginning of the NBA season and gotten the 10 day contract option to work right?

Also, does the game actually feel more physical now? Meaning it feels like a battle when you get into the paint? Thanks ahead of time.

Like I said, the walk is there. It just disappears sometimes.

I'm loving the contact, hard fouls ,bumps in the paint, now Artest look and feel more like the bully he is when trying to score in the paint.

The game feels smoother, it's harder to score in the paint. I think it's crazy how the cpu double team Kobe. I'm two games in with the Lakers and before he even attempt a shot, they're on him like stiink on dookie. Don't know if this is going to be the norm, but i never seen double teams like this before the patch.

I'm not really seeing that many hard fouls in the paint, seems to be hit or miss. I think the contact and fouls are definitely a nice upgrade from what it was before, but I'm still seeing too many And-1s because the defender doesn't foul the CPU hard enough to significantly reduce the inside shot success. I reduced the CPU inside shot slider to 45 (from 50), but I'm not really noticing any difference, mainly because when my defenders do make good contact with the CPU during drives, they're still making an unrealistic amount of layups.

Anybody notice if the free agent pool is back in season mode after the patch??

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch Available, Post Impressions Here (360)

Has player movement been tightened up? Less jerkiness, SLIDING and jolting? Bigs still play tight defense on the perimeter?

No it's not. Also some of the FA you sign in Association don't appear on the teams roster. I called customer service and received a "Sorry" but that is about it. This was one of the biggest oversights in the game to begin with and to then miss it in the patch to? I posted a thread on this on the main Forum page and in the roster section hoping to find some answers. Feel free to vent your anger there if you want. Maybe someone will take notice if enough of us speak up.

This is a PATCH impressions thread. This is not called a "the patch has dropped now start tweaking the heck out of sliders to make the game as realistic as possible" thread. Once I downloaded the patch, I set all sliders to default so I could get an idea of the actual FIXES 2k has made to the game.

You're not going to be able to fully see what has or hasn't changed if you're playing the patched game using your pre-patch sliders. Like I've said before, I've only reduced the inside scoring by the CPU (to 45), and I will attempt to reduce the layup success a bit as well and see if that will properly improve the overall CPU FG%.

Re: NBA 2K10 Patch Available, Post Impressions Here (360)

Defense is much improved, I notice my players sticking with their man and getting a hand in the CPU's face without me having to adjust any sliders and this goes for the perimeter and down low. Shot blocking is much more aggressive for me and the cpu.

Also I don't see the player I'm controlling getting stuck in an animation on shots anymore especially when the shot clock is winding down. That happened a lot to me pre-patch.

The game is definitely a lot more fluid.

Wasn't the upcoming schedule covering the screen part of the patch. I'm still seeing it, but during stops in play. Is that normal?
