NBA 2K16 Patch Coming Soon to Fix Pro-Am Issues

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch Coming Soon to Fix Pro-Am Issues

I'm sure there are ways to produce artificial traffic. Hackers do it all the time when they slow down psn or stop it completely. Not gonna keep giving 2k a pass for shotty servers or testing or whatever the real issue is.

Although I don't think traffic is the only problem. It may be a combination of things.

But, Destiny had way more players online day 1 and you literally can't play unless you're online. I've never had a problem with Destiny unless PSN was down or they were doing maintenance. For the amount of players on Destiny all day, all their features usually work.

So to say they can't artificially produce the amount of traffic they may have based on preorders is a cop out.

Exactly. I work in technology and "load testing" an online server based product before release is mandatory. Its not optional. There are also rumors that the game is region locked now which if its true is beyond ridiculous in an online gaming world. But it explains why I cant play against my buddy on the west coast even tho we played in the Rec in 2K15 all year. What is going on with the decision makers over in 2K land?

Yeah but in your company (or most companies), you just push back the release until it's ready. 2K gets sued for millions of dollars by the NBA and retailers in penalties for not making the market date. Big difference.

Pro-AM probably never really worked... we're all BETA testing it right now.

Why can't they learn from games like Destiny and Beta test? Also, limit lag issues.


Hell.. the free game ROCKET LEAGUE could pull off 1v1 all the way to 5v5... Pro-Am needs to copy that matchmaking.

Oh and I'll take 100k FREE VC for my headaches, thank you.

I hope that they will address the problem where i am a point guard in MC, and after 6 seconds of the possession i get bad grade for holding the ball too much.

I Call the play, stand on the blue circle and puff, i am holding the ball too much.

Adress the guy in the stand that yells every time, "pass the ball it's taking too much" or what ever. He is like a stalker, he atended all the games since high school, College, home and away nba games... it is creepy to play when you have a stalker.

That has to be the most constantly annoying thing from the game I could find so far, lol.

For me, as a center, it's standing on the blue circle, waiting for the play to be set in motion, and...it never does.

The point guard just stands there with the ball ("Move the ball! You're stickin' too much!") until the shot clock reaches 1 or 2.

Dude, I'm on my spot! What do you want me to DO?!

I found that I could force a play to move by getting into position and setting a screen, but that seems more like the play breaking, resetting, and going to the next one in line.

I'm on my spot, waiting for the next step, and it never comes. This happens when player/position-locked in MyLeague and MyGM, too.

It's a shame, given how great the REST of this game is.

I wonder if the pro am leaderboards will be reset with this patch.

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch Being Tested, Releases in 2-3 Weeks

I hope the patch also fixes the bizarre tendency for the game commentary to not talk about any individual player or team when in Play Now when the game is connected online.

Yup, it's a shame. There are times you have to guess where you should go, then the play continues. Can't believe we're still having this issue. I remember when they first introduced MyPlayer/MyCareer, we're unable to see the plays on the court, they added that via patch, then it went away again the following year, they had to patch it again. Now this.

Re: NBA 2K16 Patch Coming Soon to Fix Pro-Am Issues

Anyone think we'll have 5v5 with our own friends patched in, or will we be forever stuck with just 5 and not able to play against 5 other friends head to head?

Good legitimate issue. Don't worry about sock length lol

Everything outside of Pro am works perfect for me. So its not that broken.

they need to reset the leader boards so everyone has an equal chance to get up there.....and reset the rep all the top people has rep boosted in mycourt

Now this.

I noticed this too, but I think it depends on the coach and system. For example, I originally went to the Hornets. Never really had that problem, but once I went to the Blazers via FA, they seemed to never call plays. I realized it's because of the way Lillard and the Blazers are setup. He does a lot of freestyle within that offense and most of the time folks just pick their spots on the floor. Once I asked for a trade to the Bulls (which I got), I never had this issue unless D. Rose wanted to go 1 on 1. Basically what I'm trying to say is not all teams run plays 24/7. Some teams, players do their own thing sometimes...
