Anyone not finding any games online (ps4) ?

During the demo I'd find a game in seconds.......now that stop watch thing goes for 4-5, more minutes and nothing ?

I don't know if it'll help, but a few days ago I was having this happen. Then when I backed out to the main menu and went back in to try again I immediately got some kind of connection error. Closing the game and re-opening it got rid of that error, and also allowed me to find a match within a minute again. It's possible that error is why you can't find a game (even though it doesn't notify you until you try to search a second time).

It's also possible that no one is playing at this time of night, though I'd think that pretty unlikely since the game is so new.

I am really enjoying the game but this game also makes me frustrated that thw ai shots are just automatic. I had cp3 hit a half court fade and got 5 points from it and even had blake hit a few 3s as well on the run.

Yup......same thing. Can't find a game, back out to look again, get error message. Have to quit application and restart to get rid of error message.


Maybe it's a ps4 server thing ?

My buddy was saying the same thing about the London tourney playing against Dirk and Magic.

I think I was spoiled right away when I got a Curry. I just hammered the CPU with his threes. Won a lot of close games because of that.

I hit a 4 point shot with 1 second left to beat Shaq and AI. Pure luck.

I'm just stuck on this last challenge I can't get. The 15 steals game. Bah.

Online it has been spotty for me. Some games smooth, others just brutal with lag.

The Dirk and Magic one was the hardest for me. For Shaq and AI and beat them with Ray Allen and Kristaps and hit threes and easy crossover layups since Shaq always blocks dunks

I just bypassed any lottery and followed the non ball handler and pushed them before they got the ball. You can always predict it especially when they go into the corners.

Also dont ever have them behind you or they will steal it automatically.

I believe we will see a lot of post-release support for this game. The "swipe" causing stamina drain was a nice adjustment.

They still have a lot of work to do concerning balance on defense. (Blocks/Rebounding/3 PT timing too easy/ Defensive positioning causing having no impact of shooting results)

Also, I think they need a little work on making the ratings mean a little more. Particularly regarding speed. I'm seeing very little discrepany in speed of players regardless of their rating. (Big men hitting 3's is an issue as well)

Can you earn XP and packs by playing exhibition mode or only in tournament mode?

Yes,you get XP win or lose in exhibition and you level and to receive packs....it is quite a grind though to be honest.

One thing though: In Exibition, you can only play in cities you've unlocked in Tournament.

Biggest issue with the game is the inbound delay. Who thought that was a good idea ? So annoying, disrupts the pace of the game.

They need to add more tournaments. Seems like they will be able to do that.

In the mean time I'm trying to get creative and figure out how I want to run an tourney myself. Paper and pen style. Lol.

Takes way to long to find a match online on ps4.....worked like butter during the demo.

Either A) the servers are messed up

Or B) no one is playing this game online

You only get 100xp for an exhibition/all ready played tourney game.

You get 400xp for an online win.
