On Monday, yet another NBA 2K20 patch update was released to address the ongoing issues that plague the newest 2K basketball title. The latest update 1.05 packed quite a bit into it, but the NBA 2K20 patch notes didn’t give a whole lot of information. However, several other sources brought additional details regarding the new patch update 1.05 and what it fixes.
NBA 2K20 patch update 1.05 fixes detailed
Gamers saw a 2K20 update arrive soon after the game’s release, and now another hefty one arrives. While the last few NBA 2K20 patch updates have been rather large, 2K has been notoriously not saying much with regards to what was fixed. That held true with Monday’s patch update 1.05 as the notes they provided focused on just two main areas. Here’s a look at the initial notes revealed on 2K’s social media:
Luckily, YouTuber PoorBoySin gave some additional notes on his Twitter to about what’s new. That includes a fix for Badge progression problems, adjustments for speed, multiplayer issues, audio, and more.
NBA 2K Gameplay Director Mike Wang also dropped several tweets containing additional notes for the new patch update. Specific details include a fix for Steve Nash’s signature dribble style, a fix for baseline dunks, and making sure that a successful coach’s challenge doesn’t burn a timeout.
The recent patch updates have been considerably large, leading many gamers to wonder why 2K20 needed so many fixes. Per various reports, it was a 36 GB update for Xbox One and 20 GB for Sony PlayStation 4.
Some are suggesting that for NBA 2K21 they should release a beta version of the game ahead of the official one. That way gamers can test things out and let the developers know what needs improvement before the release date arrives. There was a free NBA 2K20 demo released before the game, but it merely allowed gamers to tinker with the various MyPlayer archetype builds and transfer them to the full game.
It’s understandable why gamers are frustrated with a game costing $60 or more. Even so, it’s hard to believe games will arrive without having some issues. Most of today’s sports games require regular updates to address new glitches and inconsistencies in gameplay.
The NBA 2K20 game is currently available for PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. See more details at the official NBA 2K website.
