Patch v1.04 Released (PC/360/PS3/iOS) - Notes & Impressions

Postby benji on Wed Dec 14, 2011 10:15 am

As of March 6th, the PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and iOS versions of NBA 2K12 have all been updated.

These are the full game update notes for NBA 2K12 Patch v1.04.

The patch will be arriving on the XBOX 360 and PlayStation 3 console within the next 24 hours!

We also just released an update for NBA 2K12 iOS which you can find those patch notes near the bottom.

Here are the full details for Patch v1.04:

ONLINE
Fixed an issue that would cause large-user Team-Up games to hang at halftime if all users watched the halftime show in-full.
Addressed an issue that would lead to a disconnect in subsequent games when one or more users modified their playbook for the current game.
A number of Association: Online optimizations were made to greatly minimize disconnects.
Additionally, general optimization improvements were made in order to improve the overall online experience.

GENERAL
The ‘Back to Back to Back’ and ‘My All-Star’ trophies/achievements should now unlock under the proper conditions.
Previously unlocked NBA’s Greatest games and ‘Gift with Purchase’ Kings/Warriors teams will now remain unlocked after playing and exiting the Association/My Player game modes.
Fixed an issue where the roster would become corrupt when attempting to enter the ‘Legends Showcase’ with unsaved roster changes.
Fixed a rare issue that would cause the game to hang when attempting to skip the pre-game presentation in Season and Playoff modes.
Corrected an issue where players could become duplicated after editing a Created Team.
“PIPPEN” dunk package has been updated so that it can be re-assigned to Pippen when switched off of him.
Addressed issue where Created Players are assigned Cold Zones for all shot locations. This change applies for all generated players in Association/My Player modes as well.
The Adidas Zig Pro Future and ZigEncore shoes should now have the correct shoe image associated with them.

GAMEPLAY
Increased the velocity of lob passes into the post so they are less vulnerable to tips and steals.
Reduced steal success when the defender attempts a steal from behind the ballhandler.
Tuned player lunges on steal attempts such that they don’t cover an unrealistic amount of ground.
Tuned AI passes from the wing down into the post. The AI is now smarter during this situation, specifically where the perimeter defender is sagging off the ballhandler in anticipation of this pass.
Corrected an issue where during online gameplay, a shot ball would ‘re-launch’ even after it had been blocked.
Tuned AI playcalling during late-game situations so that they initiate plays faster.
Fixed an issue where the CPU ballhandler would take too long to pass (or in some cases, not pass the ball at all) when running a play in My Player.
Addressed an issue where the user would inadvertently commit an intentional foul with a defender when attempting to contest a shot with his hands up.
Tuned animation selection that would cause a player to lose forward momentum when attempting a Swat Block.
Addressed a specific case where attempting a pass fake would cause the pass to be thrown.
8-second violations will no longer be called when the ball is poked loose and enters the backcourt.
Training Camp: Triple Threat drill score requirements lowered in order to make it a little easier to complete the drill.
Legends Showcase: Fixed a hang that would occur when the AI would recover a loose ball by diving for the ball and then sitting idle with it.
Legends Showcase: Addressed a case where players who did not meet the requirements were able to throw a flashy pass.

MY PLAYER
Corrected an issue where the game would hang after winning the NBA Finals in My Player mode.
Trading logic has been greatly improved in this mode. In particular, your team’s GM will no longer overhaul the roster once you join the team.
Your team’s GM will now do a better job of acquiring one of your recommended players when he comes to you asking for potential trade targets. Be careful what you ask for!
Fixed an issue where both teams in a game would be using the wrong playbooks on occasion.
A few select season-long milestones (e.g. Shoot 85% or better from the free throw line) should now properly unlock when the prerequisite conditions are met.
The camera should now properly follow the action in your Signature Shoe Commercial.

THE ASSOCIATION
A number of trade logic improvements have been made for this experience (these apply to Association: Online as well).
Addressed the CPU lineup building / player role allocation such that players no longer become unnecessarily upset with the direction of their respective teams.
New coaching staff is now generated when you get many years into the mode. This will result in sufficiently skilled coaches available to be hired.

Stickied, so we can use this as the impressions thread as well.

No ETA on the PC patch, so January?February still seems a safe bet for the moment based on the past couple of years.

I figured.

I did follow up by asking why PC constantly gets shafted, and failed to respond. Not exactly surprising.

How well does the PC version sell relative to consoles?

If Stern were running 2k he'd veto and pull back the patch "for the good of the game".

Nice to see My Player trade logic get fixed, might make the mode tolerable now. Stats fix is definitely necessary, usually I base my sliders off of the season stats, kinda hard to do when you're averaging 65 Def Rebound/game, 35 steals/game.

Now lets just hope they at least start PC patch before they're completely done with Xbox and PS3, because at this rate consoles will be 'fixed' by the end of January, and PC will therefore get a patch around March. Pretty ridiculous that a game shipped with such fundamental bugs (and I would assume relatively simple bugs) takes 2 months to patch...

Unless they're planning another update to fix issues with stats, I'd say that'll have to wait until next year.

yeah wtf Apple version of the game has the patch but PC users are a bunch of bitches and hoes to be ignored?

Can anyone let me know how different doing a layup is...CPU cheese moves (u know what, forget it.), if trade logic actually has improved.

If fastbreak bullshit ass interceptions are still there...

Reading from the thread impressions on operationsports it seems this patch is a good one. Fixes a lot of issues, and what I personally love:
-you can blow by defenders again (with the right ratings and matchup). :headbang: :chug:
-CPU shot-blocking ridiculousness is much less so.
-super stupid 3rd quarter shooting voodoo crap is way diminished, and more realistic threes/shooting in general.

Can't wait for my PC versioonnn!!
