Details on the fourth patch for NBA 2K17

The fourth post-release patch for NBA 2K17 is now available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as well as on PC. The earlier updates made to the game have addressed the ability to release roster updates, added PS4 Pro support, fixed the shot meter and various bugs, and tweaked gameplay and presentation. Despite that major issues have remained most notably related to CPU defensive AI and the game’s online Pro-Am mode.

The new patch doesn’t note any changes to the big defensive AI concerns that have been highly discussed by the community and also doesn’t claim to have fixed the connection problems plaguing Pro-Am. Instead it focuses heavily on MyPark gameplay adjustments while fixing the bug that prevented passing icons from displaying with PS4 Pro systems. 

General

♦The Hornets will now have their correct court projection during the pre-game presentation.

♦Fixed an indefinite simulating screen that would occur when your MyPLAYER retired after the completion of his 20-year MyCAREER.

♦Fixed a hang that would occur in MyGM/MyLEAGUE when attempting to enter the Staff Signing experience when the team had no Assistant Coach (retired) and an expired Head Coach.

♦Addressed an issue in MyGM/MyLEAGUE where a league filled with Classic and Euroleague teams would sometimes hang late in the season when simulating.

♦Fixed a MyTEAM Challenge case where the in-game overlay would claim the challenge was not successfully completed when it actually was.

♦Addressed a case where a MyTEAM card that was sent to the Auction House could still appear in lineup menu as being available (when it actually wasn’t).

Gameplay
