Getting my copy from amazon this week bitches.
patch should come out early next week. perfect timing
 
Proud to announce patch will be out in just over 16 hours (2 AM PST) per Microsoft on XBOX 360.

We are waiting for Sony to greenlight PS3 patch, but we got approval this morning from Microsoft and are ready to push it out. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

fuck yes.
crew games tomorrow bitches!
 
Xbox 360 patch is out in 3 hours.

PC patch is "still in development" according to Ronnie. I think they're sitting on it until the other two patches are out. Hopefully soon, as all I'm playing is MyPlayer. My favorite game mode by far.

Glad to see that the patch will be out shortly.

The feedback on this patch will basically determine whether or not I'll pick up this game.

I want to give you my money 2K, don't fuck this up!

Patch details (for those who haven't seen them yet):

Hey 2Kers,

Just an update to let everyone know that we have completed the Xbox 360 version of the patch. As promised, you will find the patch details below. The items in bold are items that have also been addressed in a new version of the PS3 patch (I've updated that thread with the appropriate information).

To answer a question that I have received many queries about, these patches do NOT require you to restart your Associations and My Player careers. Good luck with your players and teams!

SimBaller


GENERAL

- Improved game performance in all arenas and camera angles.

- Corrected a framerate issue that was causing noticeable slowdown in the paint in specific arenas.

- Corrected a framerate issue that was causing noticeable slowdown during NBA D-League games.

- Fixed an issue (online and offline) where Coach Settings were not properly saving to the user’s Settings file.

- Addressed an issue where the user would enter into a game where there would either be no crowd present or the opposing team would not appear on the court.

- Fixed an issue where users would get NBA Blacktop rules (no intentional fouls, no 3-in-the-key, etc.) turned on when attempting to play a Quick Game.

- In-game saves should now load up correctly in the Playoffs game mode.

- Users are now able to assign any jersey number to a player, on any team, when playing outside of The Association game mode.

- Games played in the NBA D-League should now have appropriate sized crowds. (Note: this change will not be reflected in existing Associations and My Player careers.)

- Fixed a slowdown issue during stoppages of play with created teams.

- Made a change to where the value for headband colors is stored at. These changes can now be made through Living Roster releases once the patch is released. If you see any discrepancies, make sure and let the 2K Insider know!



GAMEPLAY

- Tuned shooting percentages across the board, particularly (points) in the paint where more shots are now initiated with contact.

- Fixed a soft hang on an inbound where the inbounding player would miss the ball handoff from the referee.

- Addressed issues in defensive rotations that didn’t function as intended in various situations, with particular attention to both post double team situations as well as in pick-and-roll situations.

- Lead passes into the paint will now result in more tipped/deflected passes as the interior defense is now more aware of these types of passes.

- Plays will no longer break when the user strays slightly from the intended path.

- Both User/CPU alley-oop success has been toned down such that only realistic attempts should now be completed.

- Assists should now only be credited to the passer at appropriate times.

- Only 1 timeout is deducted from the total when the CPU calls a timeout for the user.

- The CPU should no longer pass the ball to a teammate when the recipient has a foot out of bounds.

- Bad passes should be less inaccurate now. They still happen with similar frequency, but some passes can be recovered now.

- CPU players now have better logic behind their turbo energy management (which will keep them fresher for key moments in the game).

- CPU players should now be more aware of being called for 3 second violations.

- Defensive assist is now turned off when the ball is not in play.

- The CPU now properly respects any changes to the Help Defense slider settings.

- The dribbler should no longer teleport back a few feet on the court following a two player steal attempt.

- Players with unique free throw stances (ex., Paul Pierce) will no longer slide into position to shoot the free throw.

- Point Guards should no longer end up out of bounds during baseline inbounds coming out of a timeout or dead ball.

- Fixed a case where the PG would run in a circle (in anticipation of receiving the ball) in the backcourt during transitions.

- Players should no longer get stuck in the post in a single player hold-ball animation (often leading to a 24-second violation) when trying to drive to the basket.

- Fixed an issue where the user was unable to give certain players their player-specific animation packages.

- Fixed an issue with a baseline layup where opposing defenders weren’t able to create contact when the animation played out.

- Addressed a specific dunk animation that would sometimes not result in a made basket despite a successful dunk.

- The user should now notice more over-the-back calls on rebounds when the boxed out player attempts a rebound.

- A good number of other changes aimed towards increasing user satisfaction have also been made in this release. These will be apparent as you play the game (ex. The referee will now utilize a bounce pass rather than a chest pass when passing the ball to the shooter during free throw situations, plays will now start quicker when the user manually calls a play, etc.).



PRESENTATION

- During NBA Today/Association games, the ‘Upcoming Schedule’ overlay will no longer obstruct
gameplay.

- Fixed an issue where the substitution overlay would sometimes briefly cover the action on the court.

- Blank overlays should no longer quickly appear/disappear during gameplay.

- Player specific custom sound events should now be working properly in Arena Music Manager.



ONLINE

- Improved performance and stability for all online game types.

- Corrected an issue in Team-Up play where all players would sometimes see the same player (PG) listed in all substitution slots.

- Ranked game difficulty has been changed to SuperStar for Team-Up games.

- Removed the spotlights for online play only to improve performance during stoppages of play.

- Corrected an issue with the My Player Pick-Up games that would sometimes cause games to diverge upon initiation.

- Fixed an issue where online Association games would diverge at halftime if neither user skipped through the presentation sequence.

- Fixed an issue in Crew games where the wrong team would be credited with the win after one Crew quit out of the game.

- Fixed a hang that would sometimes occur when making substitutions during an online Association game.

- Fatigue should now behave as expected during private Team-Up games.

- Fixed a hang in Who’s Online that would occur when the user scrolled quickly with a large number of friends on the list.

- Replays uploaded via GameTrack should now play properly when viewed at 2ksports.com.

- Fixed an issue with the Screenshot Upload feature that would sometimes upload an incorrect screenshot.

- Fixed an issue where a user’s consecutive win streak would get reset to zero if the user won a game where his/her opponent quit out of the active game.

- Fixed an issue in private matches with friends where all users would disconnect when attempting to play a second game.

- Fixed an issue where games in online leagues would diverge if users made changes to the default roster.

- Addressed an issue where completed ranked games would sometimes not report the results to the server.



MY PLAYER

- Fixed an issue that would cause a clone of the user’s player to be created when changing teams at the end of the Summer Circuit. Existing cloned players will be removed with this patch.

- Users can now change quarter length in My Player to any amount of minutes between 5 and 12.

- Tuned the substitution logic such that users should no longer be substituted out only to be substituted in at the next dead ball.

- The logic that determines whether or not you get an invite to Training Camp, make the NBA team, and get an invite from an NBA team while in the NBA D-League have all been changed to be a little more forgiving.

ASSOCIATION

- The ability for the user to upload their Association stats/standings to the blog interface on 2KSports.com has been added.

- Fixed an issue where player ratings would drop upon the successful completion of a Development Drill.

- Tuned the Player Progression system such that Shot Tendencies will progress/regress over a player’s career. Additionally, general Player Progression/Regression has been slightly increased as well.

- Fixed an issue where the number of players the user had sent down to their D-League affiliate wasn’t getting reset despite recalling players back to their NBA team.

- Fixed an issue where draft classes loaded in future years would change the age of the prospects inside the draft class. They should now have the same age they were created with.

- 10-day contracts should now work in year 2 and beyond.

- Lower rated players should now be more accepting of the ‘Role Player’ role.

pared from OS posted this video and these impressions

You can't lead pass into the paint anymore. At least, I haven't been able to, especially off the pick and roll.

The defense is much much better. Fantastic rotation off the PnR by the CPU defense. I'll post a video of this in a second. Everything default Pro.

http://community.2ksports.com/commun...mediaid=465301

The game overall is much much smoother. Wow... shot %'s are definitely lower. I'm on Pro default right now. I'm pretty impressed actually. I saw some slowdown during this one specific FT camera but I've been trying to get slowdown during gameplay and I can't. Even at Philly. Seems like it may be gone.

I really enjoyed the game with sliders... but out of the box, this is a MUCH better game, no question.

Also you can edit quarters in PRE-EXISTING My Player seasons. Amazing work.

LEAD PASS IS TONED DOWN ALoT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



yessssssssssssssssssss

The game feels a lot smoother...

you can STILL lead pass...BUT.....they dont slide to the basket as far..if you wanna lead pass them....they only get lead by like a couple feet from where they at..

no lags on free throws

paint defense is a lot better!!!!! lead passes gets picked off in traffic and dudes just dont stand there anymore like dummies

the lead passing is like 2k9-ish...still there but not as much

Shooting in the paint has been really toned down far too much imo... taken so many simple shots that should have gone in.

ok, patch here in italy
first impression: are you serious?
where are the options for online settings? where is the plays' execution smoothness?
the only one improvemente i noticed was on the lag online, i tried a game and it was almost perfect. too bad it quitted in the first quarter...
c'mon, 2k, tell us this wasn't the patch, tell us it was a prepatch or something.
for chrissake, i wanna play sim basketball online, i want my f**king playbook, i wanna run my f**king plays, and i wanna play more than one stupid quarter

Some of stuff are still not fixed but the games feels 100% better. Thanks, now work on the 2nd patch lol

Aroyo still has black arms :|
:lol :lol

I CAN CHANGE MY PLAYER MODE MINUTES!!!

Go to options, then presentation and scroll down and you should see the minutes. Though my only concern is I never checked this before so I got no clue if it was there before the patch lol?

I for one, experienced lots of paint contact

10 day contract was not fixed,

Wow, I hope this is just some temporary phase of the patch.

Online is still terrible.

So hard just to get a damn game going. I still have yet to play a team-up game with more than 6 players.

It might even be worse now. I'm losing connections in the Game Lobby now for team-up. That never happened before.

If this is how it is post-patch, it's a problem with 2k's SERVERS and not the game itself.

It's the same, but maybe even worse.

- Can't get a team-up game going with more than 6 players.
- Losing connections
- Losing connections in Game Lobby (this didn't even happen before)
- XBOX STILL FREEZES when "Connecting to Host ..."

Love the Patch... More fouls for the slashers and contact allows for better D. No more spamming kobe or lebron Finally The Game can be Fair. All you have to do is not fall asleep on d and your good. Good Job. 2k

This game is BULL
Seriously

I'm playing superstar mode...and my coach is an idiot.. i will get on fire... with like 1 min left in the 4th... Steal the ball pass it down court for a fast break point.. and he will reward me by taking me out of the game for the remainder of it...

EVERY TIME!!

Online is crap... The Game ends before it can even start :\

And damn in order to even GET to a game.. I need to go through maybe 20 loading/saving screens.
WTF is that about... Why is it that the first thing this game does when i turn it on.. is load 5 different things... Then... saves it.... That before I get to the friggin menu..!!!

SO frustrating.>!! :(

Edit: Patch is out? I was playing today and didn't see anything what gives?... Oh x360 version.

I played all star 8 minute quarters post patch. It's a different game. No more crazy backdoor wide open cuts. Much better post defense. Man defense is still a bit janky and CPU shot % is still high but that's fixed easily with a slider. The flow felt better and I'm enjoying it much more now (I'm also one of the people who shelved it until the patch). Can't wait to get my season going.

Loving that I can now change the quarter length in My Player! Game still doesnt want to remember my camera preferences, but thats aight.

Looking forward to getting the league started, finally
 
yea leagues only work if injuries/trading are off and you dont put in any free agents or inactive players, and only if you play with 16 teams or less and 40 games or less.

Fun stuff

yeah, its over guys. league is officially over. nice knowing ya 2k.

what a joke, we have been waiting for this patch to come out and fix these online lg issues and come to find out it didnt do nothin LMAO what a joke and the admin doesnt even care to address an issus good job 2k way to keep your customers.

all i could do was shake my head when i saw ron marketing post.its like the 2k staff gettin together and thinking of another way to **** us off.rob has to know online lgs dont work from the posts in this forum yet he post this crap about marketing lgs we cant play.cant wait to modern warfare 2 come out to play a game online they way its suppose to be.2k take notes on how a server should run and invest some dollars you stole for a bs game this year.

Please remove your sticky marketing thread. The leagues STILL do NOT WORK. Just a little heads up. The patch did not fix the league play one bit.

i brought this game for league play only when is this going to be fixed my leagues been waiting for the pacth to release in this thing still dont work got dammit 2k yall are relly starting to ****ing me off

What is going on 2K...our 30 man league is plagued with constant net errors and disconnects. Please fix this broken feature of a great game before posting stickies about how to market your league when it is not even functional at the moment.

Who wants to run a 16 player league when you have 30 dedicated users ready to play?WWS has been running strong for a while with our 30 team draft league and now we can`t even enjoy our league.We`ve had 2 drafts not work,and the 3rd time the draft started 3 mins late.I have one of the drafts that didn`t start on youtube.Once we got to draft we couldn`t play with our teams.One patch later and still NETWORK ERROR.This has got to be the worst sports game ever created.

I run leagues every year, thanks to this wonderful dev team... ONLINE LEAGUES ARE DEAD.

Nobody can get a game to start, much less finish one after 15 tries thanks to the way the rosters in leagues screw everything up.

You guys took the online leagues from 2k9 and before that actually worked in NBA, scrapped those, then COPIED THE FREAKING MLB 2K9 LEAGUES THAT DIDN'T WORK AND YOU GUYS IGNORED FOR AN ENTIRE DAMN YEAR!!!

Who makes these decisions? Really?

MLB 2K9 was a terribly broken game online full of cheats, glitches, and all kinds of ****... sooo

... you guys COPY ONLINE LEAGUES FROM THAT PILE OF TRASH?!?!?

leagues are the MAIN reason to play this game. Fantasy drafts make this game. PERIOD
Network Errors! I knew the patch couldn't fix their server issue. There have been several threads about this topic and I believe they were deleted! 2KRON never commented on ONE of the threads! The only thing 2K has said is online works beautifully! 2K is a joke this year

2k should be ashamed.

Pre-patch online leagues were broke........post-patch online leagues are still broke..........I have a feeling this game could have 20 patchs and the online leagues would still be broke.

Does this patch make the help defense slider actually work? That's the main issue I've had with this game offline. No matter what you do that slider, my guys just keep doubling and leaving people open for 3's.

I told you 1000 times to get Live.

You don't listen to me, this is what happens.
 
Other then the debacle with leagues, I thought this game was 10x better post patch, gameplay wise??? Right? (Have it for PS3 so don't have the patch up yet).
 
So can someone summarize the problem? Are Leagues totally borked . . . or is it that you just need to start over from square 1 and re-create the league?

The latter would suck but not seem like a total disaster. Well, I guess it would REALLY suck if you already played a bunch of games but now all the results from those games will be lost. Perhaps that is the problem?

Leagues still appear to be borked even after the patch.
 
Hey guys,
Just wanted to make sure everyone was squared away here. We figured out the issue on Friday and needed 36 hours for the fix to be fully put into place. Seems like things are good, but just want to put up a note and see if anyone was having this issue.

This won't be an issue for 360 because we got it fixed quite quickly.

Ronnie2k

patch drops in the next 72 hours for 360. i need my damn 2k fix dammit. let's make league happen. :(

let me know if you're down.

So, my brother bought this and I started a My Player dude.

Did everyone else have the same reaction as me, i.e. it's just not worth it? The crap they punish you for is ridiculous. Foul someone? Oops, down goes your grade! Let your opponent score? Too bad. Don't you know that even if you're playing on Kobe damn Bryant, you should be keeping him to ZERO POINTS?!

On top of all that, it doesn't even bump up your grade when you make a shot, unless it's a particularly well positioned shot. It sucks.

As you play and get better at the game youll notice the system is pretty fair. For instance, the game does reward you for playing good D even if your man scores (just make sure you contest him and challenge the shot), and the game isnt going to reward you for making bad shots ... just nevermind the 2k commentary afterwards, what he says doesnt matter anyways.
