I really enjoyed the game 2 days ago but i didn't play against the CPU since then. I really liked it and was thinking like, yeah, this is good, i just they don't make it worse, and even if they do, at they don't make it too soon, but according to you guys they did it again. I won't judge completely until i try it myself but it sounds concerning, SMH

All these tweaks to shooting is pretty crazy when the real problem has been the defense.

So, yea. Can't hit a 3-pointer to save my life now. I've been very happy with the game this year up until this patch.

If this is the case I'll love this patch. I play offline on HOF with 3 pt sliders down to 41 and I hit around 50% of 3pt shots a game with average shooters. Mainly because it's too easy to get green releases on open shots.

The poor defense is part of the problem, but also the insane boosts from all these offensive badges that allow players to shoot way above what their actual attribute ratings are and allowing so many perfect automatic green releases with the new shot meter. There are so many ridiculous things that happen regularly that shouldn't be allowed to happen on offense due to the badges.

i.e. shooting consitently from such ridiculous distances from the 3pt line, screens either knocking defenders to the floor or tying them up and dragging them all over the court with very few illegal screens, passing out of bad shots, breaking players ankles, heavily contested shots dropping so much, and all the other nonsense the badges allow the offense to be so much more overpowering than the defense.

All these tweaks to shooting has been a gigantic waist of time IMO when they haven't even addressed the elephant in the room - offense badges.

It took 7 patches to finally realize the anti-cheese code with the dribbling from 2k16 wasn't even in the game. That along with all the shooting tweaks constantly tells me they still don't have a very good grasp of what the actual problems are with their game.

You guys that keep saying "That was 7gb?". They have all been 7 Gigs. There's something with the way it's submitted for PS4 (And yes, I know this is like one of the few games where you download the qhole thing instead of just the missing chunk). You're essentially downloading all the previous tweaks again, everytime, and it's overwriting the previous 7gb patch.

Look at PC or XBox, they usually have the real sizes.

Edit: To the guy above me. They have a hard time grasping right now because they have 3 to 4 separate feedback channels and they are all different. Look at Reddit. There's kids on there saying every open shot should fall. Period.

You have the offline guys, the online guys who want to play basketball, the online cheeseballs, and the silly kids who don't understand the sport outside of LeBron and Curry. That's 4 feedback channels, all of which want different things, and all of which are very VERY militant about it. The fact that twitter is getting polled tells me that there's probably influence from higher ups that are concerned that 2k will lose out on the revenue stream due to a lot of the cheeser complaints during any tweak. I really think they need to use feedback on just glitches, and make a sim game. Set realistic goals and use serverside data to monitor and adjust those ratios without worrying about what our very schizophrenic community wants. Because we all want something different

Without proper physics of footwork/planting the defense will continue to be comical. The little things still being ignored, I'm playing my GM offline so why is it that I can't watch games ? Cavs-Warriors (both CPU teams) makethe finals and I can't watch or even see some type of highlights... lack of immersion. I feel disconnected from 2k, like I'm forced to play unrealistically for the game to function properly. 2 games in a row playing against the Warriors in MYGM, Steph Curry launched 24 3s in both games, made only 7. MyGm shouldn't not feel like I'm playing streetball or Park.
Yes the glue a.i is my main problem. U pretty much have either a dunk or a kick out 3 and that's it. U can't Jab or use any of the offensive one on one moves to create space. Very unrealistic. I find it interesting that the CPU defensive counter tactic is to bump the ball handler which is actually a blocking call in the NBA. I'm thinking of labbing sliders for onball d to see if I can find a balance. I don't like touching sliders but only scoring on dunks or kick out 3's is ruining my experience. Anyone tried adjusting on ball d sliders?

Lower the on ball D and the body up sensitivity slider. It's made a lot of difference for me.

That's not what I was talking about. He said something else and he edited it out after I told him and replaced it w/ NBA Jam.

I have Hum body up sensitivity at 0. This reduces the body ups from CPU defenders. CPU On ball D is your personal preference. I think I have mine at 30.

Anybody else get 'hit in the face' 'holding my face' animations that go on for ages?

I got elbowed in the face by Harden when he was laying it in, no offensive foul called.

I've also had cases where I'm going for the layup and I get hit by the defender and no call there either, but I hold my face while they run off on the fast break, essentially 5v4 with no way of getting out of the animation.

2K17 has been heavily dictated by animations. I think this is why the game feels sluggish and 'stuck in the mud', even compared to previous versions of the game where animations were also intrusive to some extent.

I don't understand when people complain about things you can easily fix in sliders.
