NBA 2K17: Patch 1.06 mit Patchnotes veröffentlicht - Dribbling-Animation und mehr verbessert

Die Entwickler von Visual Concepts waren in den vergangen Wochen, seit der Veröffentlichung von Patch 1.05 für die Basketball-Simulation „NBA 2K17“ nicht untätig. Nachdem mit Patch 1.05 unter anderem bereits der PS4 Pro-Support geliefert wurde, bringt der neue Patch 1.06 nun zahlreiche weitere Verbesserungen für das Basketball-Spiel mit sich.

Der rund 7,4 GB schwere Patch wurde heute für PlayStation 4, Xbox One und PC veröffentlicht. Unter anderem wurden auch Änderungen an der Dribbling-Animation vorgenommen, um sie noch realistischer zu machen. Der Gameplay-Director Mike Wang erklärte auf Twitter: „Manche Moves haben den Aufprall des Balls nicht korrekt wiedergegeben, was eine frühere Bewegungen möglich machte, als das eigentlich sein sollte […]. Die Übergänge sollten nun realistischer und weniger nervös wirken.“

Die englischsprachigen Patchnotes, die auf Facebook veröffentlicht wurden, verraten weitere Details über die Änderungen von Patch 1.06 für „NBA 2K16“:
