NBA 2k11 PC Patch Released - Impressions

[Andrew]

Update from Ronnie:

QA still has the PC patch. Can't reproduce a crash, they're working on it.

[JaoSming]

I want to change my guess to January....no way they are getting it down and out before everyone takes their holiday time off

[aldrin24]

Maybe 2k should also produce a patch wherein rosters of the classic teams (jazz '97-98, sonics '96, blazers '92, lakers '91, celtics '86, pistons '89, bulls '85-'98, etc.) are accurate. It's quite sickening to play against players like reobert johnson, robert smith and brown over and over again when playing the jordan challenge!

[JaoSming]

2k cant since they obviously werent able to license the rest of the team

im sure once the REDitor is out there will be plenty of updates

[fjccommish]

Even worse is playing against only the starting five.

[karlsanada10]

Early January please!? I'm craving for it.*droolls*

[aldrin24]

That's a shame. I would have loved to see GREG OSTERTAG in a jazz uniform, eric snow too and John Salley in a Bulls or pistons uniform. Microwave Vinnie Johnson's not even included. I hope the REDitor comes out soon so we can have RANDY BROWN and DICKEY SIMPKINS in the bulls roster.

[karlsanada10]

Still no updates?

[JaoSming]

from the 16th

The #NBA2K11 PC Patch is still with QA. Trying to isolate a crash that came up after the online settings fix

[Fadeout]

They usually blame QA when no one is working on the patch. It basically means: "it's very down on our priority list".

[karlsanada10]

^It's annoying. Do they not know that many users stop playing because of the bugs?

Proof or ban.

[Patr1ck]

Umm, QA is how patches are made? Reproduce bugs / crashes, write up report on how it's caused and suggestion to fix it. Sent to devs, program patches, back to QA for confirmation of fixes.

[JaoSming]

but in the grand conspiracy that the PC version is the lowest on their priority list because they are trying to give us a fix the consoles don't have, then you are 100% correct Fadeout and should get a medal for your bravery.

Ronnie's twitter today:

"@yann14fr PC Patch for #NBA2K11 headed back to Digital Distributors (Steam, D2D, OnLive, etc.) today."

*crosses fingers*

[JaoSming]

awesome let's hope it gets released before the end of the week

[karlsanada10]

Finally. Hope itwill be released before Christmas.

[Andrew]

Good news. I'm guessing it's a longshot to come before Christmas but maybe before the new year.

[Patr1ck]

Not if the DD people are on vacation for the holidays.

[Andrew]

True. Early January then, I guess.

[wade_03]

So when the patch is released will we be able to download it straight from the game without steam and the other digital distributors?

[JaoSming]

when the patch is released there will be a page created on 2ksports.com for us to download the patch for the DVD version of the game.

[mpac]

thats great news!!! cant wait to download and install the patch

[Dual]

ronnie2k:
@jegeyom PC Patch has been with Digital Distributors for less than a week. Imagine holidays will slow that down

[Andrew]

As we figured. It's probably not going to be out until early January.
