Steve, there’s 4.3GB update I’m downloading right now. This notes is not about that, yes?
If it’s patch 1.04, yes.
And I just used up all 700K hahaha
Still seeing way too many ankle breakers on the NBA side. I figured that was something they'd touch on but I guess not.
Defense on pick and rolls appears to be improved. I wasn't able to cheese into the paint as much and had more of my passes being picked off.
Kinda surprised to see them list players warping and ball velocity as being tuned because literally the first play of the game I played had CPU Kevin Love disregard my defender and rocket layup to the rim.
Ball velocity is still really weird looking on some passes, especially into the post. The ball shoots out of players hands at 100mph.

They are aware of the ankle breaker issue and will most likely address that in a future patch.
Two things-
John Wall wasnt subbed out the entire game.
I really like how aggressive Superstars are, but 27 shots in 20 minutes? lol. 22 more shots than anyone else on the team.

By tweaked inside game you mean toned down and less OP I hope?
Thanks
We were hitting like 50% as 75 rated players. Now that I'm seeing 85 and 90 rated players, some people just never miss.
The patch is outstanding though, so glad they are working hard,
Yes, please, work on franchise! They do that and the game will be complete

Are you seeing this on a player that had previously been edited/encountered this issue, or is this on a fresh roster file?
I just wish 3's were toned down along side it.
Now randoms have even less reason to dump it to my post scorer, lol
On my ongoing franchise not a fresh roster file.
Please tell me I don’t have to start again? I’m almost 40 games in and I’ve played every game.

In my past 4 live run games, inside seems close to same but people are missing a ton pf 3s
Edit: just played again, a lot more, even wide open, 3s are not dropping. I'm very convinced they tweaked it
As far as Sweat goes, the lighting is still the same for me but if I adjust the in game brightness and contract, you can notice the sweat then..but default is still very similar.

dang that sucks
I will try tonight with fresh roster file. fortunately I have been playing franchise sparingly anticipating some changes by Season opening
also nice list of fixes in patch EA thanks for the patch notes and timely release... look forward to more fine tuning. :)
More fouls, good.
More steals, more deflections and less sticky hands. It becomes possible to get the ball back after a bad pass
Seems harder to stonewall people on d.
Inside scoring might have been slightly tuned. No word on shooting. I played wars first gm and lost 154 to 94 or something haha 30 turnovers and they made everything. Other teams have been more like real ball.
OH the pnr fix is cool. I just want them to fix contests on perimeter. Make it so you can still pull on people but make it so you can't just go up on someone right after it says shut down d and shoot a straight up j over their hands up contest and make that a lot.
Keep patching lads. Cold lobbies sucked
Edit: if they tweaked threes ha. I had to just block people on perimeter to make them miss. Fun to get locked in, but hopefully was tuned. You gotta play against those high rated bcs or Ws tho to really see.

I just got out of a 5v5 where someone was 11-14 in 3 pointers. He was a 95 though.
The inside tweak seems pretty balanced.....guys are thinking a little bit more about driving into traffic..
To patch so much this quickly, especially considering a lot of it has come from fans on here and reddit is super impressive. Well done!
And even more than that, actually releasing the full patch notes is amazing! To those on the fence about buying the game, when they see the support and additions, it can only be a positive!
I still hope you can keep tweaking and increasing both the sweat and lighting though. The update was quite subtle.

Agreed. Played 3 live run games last night and it feels way better.
Still a dunk fest ?
