They could increase OBD and contact vs. the CPU but I feel it's damn near perfect vs human IMO...good mix of skill and challenge. Regarding the steals, there are sliders offline....I say put the CPU steals at 0 of you want to dribble in traffic freely without having to worry about losing the ball...

I only played Mycareer so adjusting sliders is out of the question. But I can understand you dont want people to abuse the turbo while dribbling through traffic. But in pro games I woukd like to see more kickball being called when that happens. Because the ball is bounces of these dude legs, 2k13 had this perfectly. When the ball hit the opponent leg, kickball is being called. I rarely see kickball being called in 2k16.

A ball bouncing off of someone's leg isn't a kickball. It has to be an intentional act for it to be a kickball violation, otherwise it's just a deflection.

Just to clear that up.

But I like the idea of calling a kickball violation if someone turbos into the ball handler. It would be a slippery slope tho. They would have to differentiate between the ball handler moving into the defender, and the defender putting a leg in the way by way of using turbo to invade the handler's space.

Doable, but I have a feeling that the patch is closer to finished than at the beginning of the process if LD tweeted about it.

FIX THE NON RESPONSIVE CROWD!!!!!!!! FIX THE ATMOSPHERE PLEASE!!!!!

# 44 Iasounis @ 12/12/15 09:55 PM

Didn't read the whole thread, but all I ask is that they fix the Center hanging out on the baseline under the hoop rather than challenging the man driving; typically on fast breaks.

In 2k13 kickball was called like that. And I see kickball called like that in the NBA also.

Nope has nothing to with roster update. I also experience this in Mycareer.

Come on guys, They announced they can tweak online and offline shooting with roster updates. This morning there was an update. They more than likely tweaked things this morning.

They need to add VC to pro am and fix this http://xboxclips.com/LBx6IX/d713dd1d...c-1c44a01f9aac

# 50 MeloJello @ 12/13/15 01:08 AM

Patch 4 better fix this because I am freaking sick and tired of these BS. This is Mycareer, look at my PG. He is guarding lillard. Dude literally stop chasing him off screen, literally stop by me. Lillard make the shot and I got penalize for defensive breakdown WTF. Come on son.

And fix the loose ball This clip is ridiculous how broken loose ball is.

When you and a buddy try to play co-op together the game seems like it starts out fine but as soon as a you bring up subs or anything with the dpad or call a timeout, your player becomes unresponsive and you cannot control him anymore. Been this way ever since the last patch.

Like what im seeing after the latest roster update and tweak. It appears blocking shots is back to the way they were out the box. I see good ACE adjustments during the game and even saw a 5 second back to the basket call during a cpu vs cpu game.

In online play sure. But in mygm when you set your sliders to 100 the dunks still shouldn't clank off the rim.

# 56 ataman5 @ 12/13/15 11:10 AM

I would love to see baseline as the real 6th defender but it's nowhere near that reality atm.

Just hoping this patch doesn't mess up anything else. I want the patch asap, but I hope they properly check for bugs and etc because this is probably the last patch for 2K16 and I would hate to be stuck w/ some annoying issue i.e. the player movement and no FT cut scenes.

The dribbling is NOT fine and needs tuning.

Too many times, I'll be sizing up a defender and the instant that I cut towards the basket, my player bumps into the defender and causes a loose ball. It happens with the CPU as well when they're on offence. Not only do players RACK UP turnovers, but they can also rack up steals...Kyle Lowry had 8+ steals in back-to-back games for me.

I've adjusted CPU on-ball defence, stealing, and everything else that's been suggested to me. I made a topic about this a couple of weeks ago and a couple of people knew exactly what I was talking about. You can't dribble for too long without colliding into an opposing player and letting the ball go loose. It's really frustrating and kills the fun completely.

Please fix this, 2k!

Honestly, the ball needs to be knocked loose more. I see people trying to do all types of crossovers and never lose the ball.

I think it should be left alone. Most of the time it's user error trying to do too much.

I'm not saying this to be a jerk, but with the complicated and ambitious nature of this series, it's pretty much a given that something else will be messed up for sure, just too many moving parts. I know that it drives a lot of people crazy, but the no FT cut scene is the kind of thing that I'm O.K. with being messed up. Something that's aesthetic and not gameplay related is a lesser of evils, IMO.
