NBA 2K17 Patch 1.07 Available Now For PS4 & Xbox One - Patch Notes Included

[jax01]

Played several games of pro-am on xbox one. Gameplay is MUUUCH better! Props to 2K for getting back to more sim/gameplay balance. Defense actually is fun again.

I think the hardest balancing act is finding the right gameplay balance that works for ALL modes, as well as online and offline. Some have said, separate the modes as far as gameplay tweaks. But that would 'cause more issues too because people want consistency when they're in mycareer and then they go online and expect similar gameplay. So, this has always been a tricky thing for gameplay.

I think the online mode probably should take priority 'cause 1) it's 2K's money maker 2) We are stuck with whatever difficulty it's on. Offline ballers have way more gameplay tweaking options like sliders and difficulty. Online, not so much.

Then again, is it so bad that CONTESTED layups miss? Happens in the real NBA all the time.

I've never understood the argument "man this game needed 7 patches, bad game!" Huh? Patches are mostly a good thing (as long as it's not causing new issues and breaking something that doesn't need fixing), 'cause it means the game is dynamic and that the devs are continually fine tuning the game to try to make it more sim & excellent, combining feedback and basketball logic.

Since theres no patch notes people can say kangaroos are in the game and no one will question it.

nah man, from patch 6 to 7 you'll see the difference that realness is gone. thats what i mean but since you seem focus on online modes and winning only then you may not notice it.peace bruh bruh
