Some My Career Patch 6 impressions:

I immediately have noticed a drop off in universal game speed but moreso for how slow opponent CPU reactions have become

CPU opponent is dribbling so sluggish with little to no burst and I'm no longer seeing dribble moves.. the pace is so painfully slow and this is on 55 which originally felt fine prior to patch 6

It feels easier to check the CPU and I also am experiencing an easier time beating the cpu off dribble because their reaction are slower..

Can others relate to the slower cpu reactions in Patch 6 for my career? The agressive dribble moves from CPU opponents seems to be diminished but I'm going to try My Career on a higher difficulty to get comparable results

Just played a few more Park games before dinner, I decided to switch parks today too.

Switched to Sunset and played with two randoms, 1 was a Legend and the other an All-Star, PG and SG respectively. They both had their mics on, I didn't and they were just throwing jabs at each other back and forth. Considering I had just switched I was a Rookie 1 and it was funny hearing the Legend surprised at how well I was doing.

Somehow we won all 3 games I played with them, even though they just kept jacking 3s. I was open literally the entire time down low (7 foot 1 Center) but they just kept running around shooting. I was hoping this patch would get these guys to hit me more in the post but it doesn't seem to be the case.

Really need to group up with some dudes from here.

I'll paste Phams comment on it since I pretty much agree...

Full court and 3/4 court passes straight into the paint definitely go out of bounds now. Few guys try to do that to me and ball goes straight out even with great passers like Magic.

Transition after free throw misses are still terrible. After scores is a little better but still needs work. Dribble launches definitely way toned down, this makes it A LOT more fun to play the game b/c quick PGs feel like they have more value.

I'll add you, I am at Sunset.

Post patch I have noticed a huge influx of Sim players at the park. I've beat plenty of high ranking players with a squad that's below avarage (Like on the clips) because of the fact that they can distribute the ball.

Dribbling is not dead, set and read your defenders position properly and cross accordingly. You can either shoot if you're open or pass to the open guy, it's not that hard. There's no need to exploit and and try excessively to create your own shot. It's selfish and only "FUN" for you.

Dribbling ain't dead.

Does this patch affect offline users? So far I can't tell a difference at all. Thanks

I stopped playing park because a group of 3 point guards can beat my squad (with me as center) just off my matchup spamming iso moves and hesitations on me.

Even as a small forward they could get an inch of space and hit.

Now usually only "good" (lol yea) players could do this. Because I'm a god on defense and I'll lock up most guards even as my center.

Hopefully this garbage can be gone. Doing them left right back and forth moves over and over should easy to guard...considering there's a reason NBA players aren't actually doing it lol.

don't use clips of transition, that's not proving anything.

Rather see if you're able to do anything in a 1v1 online.

Offline, I've noticed defenders getting shook when they guess wrong, and that tiny hesitation is enough to get around them.

Man we, PC players, are dying to get this patch. It's like cheesers are speed boosting even more now that they know their days are counted.

So true. If 2K could at least give us some info, but there is virtually nothing about this patch coming to PC, which is pretty frustrating.

Alright, I finally got some games in with the patch. I do not play online. I am an offline only player, and if you call yourself of basketball, and you want that represented in a video game, you should have NO complaints about this patch.

I cannot BELIEVE some of the comments I'm seeing in here. This is what the community has turned too? Yall are really mad at them for making the game more realistic. That's crazy as hell for real, cause isn't this what the nba 2k franchise was built on, realism? Man, lemme address the bull I'm seeing in this thread.

Dudes talking about the game is too slow now? I feel like the game now has "weight" to it. Players aren't just zig zagging and twitching all over the court now. Play seems organized, with a purpose instead of 10 guys just huddling around in a crowd on the court. I can see plays develop, players moving to a spot, actual basketball being played and dudes are mad about this? There is a noticeable speed difference between PLAYERS now for sure. I can tell who's fast and who's not, and I can really get to the rim with those fast guys, and yall are mad about this? Come on ..

As far as a faster playing blowing by a defender, either yall aren't using the players with this skill, or you haven't the stick skills to pull this off. I was crossing fools up with Durant, spinning around them effortlessly to the rack. A quick hesitation move and blow by with Westbrook and I was slamming it at will. Are yall trying to just cross over and blow by with every player you control? Do you even run plays? Sometimes just running a play is the best way to get a guy open. I feel like this should be common knowledge but based on some of these posts, we live in an ISO only world. Crazy.

Shooting has also been tuned for the better. Before this patch, it seemed like me and the cpu were not missing anything. I'm talking 70% from 3 not missing anything. The game was pure arcade trash before this patch and that's putting it lightly.

I can now see operation Sports is close to being all online for this game. We don't even talk about the game anymore, it's nothing but complaints with no real conclusion or help.

This patch has actually made me enjoy this game again. I'm sure little warts and things will pop up, but after getting in a few games with it, some of the comments in here are blowing my mind. I feel like 24 and a few other cats are in here defending this game and we're far outnumbered. Is the sim crowd really this low now? It's a shame.

I play on superstar simulation, 12 minutes with 2K rosters. Game plays great for me now. As an advocate for the offline gamer, I fully support this patch.

So the patch actually does address OFFLINE gameplay as well?

I had no idea what speed boosting was and still dont understand it completely, but i can still get to the rim off the dribble. My iso and dribbling skills are not strong at all, so i can attest that post patch penetration is not difficult. The manual cuts are still as overpowered as ever. But, patch notes didnt mention this being addressed so i didnt expect differently.

Any patch that makes the game more realistic is a good thing. I give 2k a thumbs up for improving the game 8 months after release.
