NBA 2K12 Patch v1.03 Released for PS3; 360 Coming Soon

2K Sports have released another official update (v1.03) for the PlayStation 3 version of NBA 2K12, with the patch for the Xbox 360 version coming soon. This update contains a handful of game fixes including some tweaks to help defense and the accuracy of directional passing, as well further online fixes including matchmaking optimisations. You will be prompted to download the latest update as long as your console is connected to the Internet.

Please see below for a complete list of issues addressed by the update and share your impressions in this thread. No further word has been given on official updates for the PC version of NBA 2K12 but Ronnie 2K has previously mentioned that the PC version will likely receive a combined update with all the fixes previously released for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions. If history is any indication, the PC patch probably won’t be out until January or February at the earliest but if any information becomes available in the meantime, we will be sure to post it.

GAMEPLAY

  • On-dribbler steal success rates have been tuned down.
  • Tuned accuracy of directional passing in order to more reliably pass to the intended target.
  • Improved help defense, specifically for rotations on pick-and-roll situations.
  • Defensive tuning on 3PT shots to reduce the success of contested threes.
  • Addressed an issue on drives to the basket where the help defender wouldn’t fully engage in the double team.

ONLINE

  • Several matchmaking optimizations have been made in order to help users get into games quicker.  This will reduce the amount of time the “Searching For Opponent…” screen is displayed for.
  • Addressed a number of network errors that would cause games to end prematurely.
  • Addressed an issue in Team-Up where certain conditions would lead to a player standing idle for prolonged periods of time.
  • Corrected a Win/Loss streak tracking issue such that the “Back to Back to Back” achievement/trophy will now unlock at the proper time.
