'NBA 2K16' patch update for PC released

"NBA 2K16" just got its first patch exclusively for personal computers (PC).

The patch released by Take Two Interactive's 2K Sports is now available for download on Steam.

According to NBA2Korg, the 87 MB patch brings with it initial fixes for the game as follows:

  • Fixed the missing icons above players head when using icon pass (R1/RB)
  • Addressed an issue where the game's main menu would freeze during initial loading
  • Removed the black horizontal bar that appears at the bottom of the screen after minimizing and maximizing the game
  • Improve overall performance and framerate hitches
  • Fixes for the most commonly reported crash issues

If in case the patch does not automatically download, just restart your Steam client and you're good to go.

Since its launch last Sept. 29, fans have been giving the game good reviews.

Gamers noted that "NBA 2K16" My Career mode almost felt like a movie. This is attributed mainly to Hollywood director Spike Lee who gave the game its cinematic appeal.

Another feature that the players enjoyed is the new Live Practice Mode, where they are able to talk to their team and join warm-up drills where they can practice their game.

Jason Argent, senior vice president of basketball operations at 2K, says that they really worked on coming up with a great basketball video game. Because of it, the sale and demand for the games increased, much more than in the previous years.

Greg Thomas, president of Visual Concepts said that their only aim is to provide players with a real-world basketball experience. He also added, "The development team demonstrated tremendous dedication to recreating every nuance of the sport both on and off-court, which has been the driving force behind our early success."

"NBA 2K16" can be played on PlayStation 3 (PS3), PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Windows PC. It also features three different covers which stars Stephen Curry of the Golden State Warrior, Anthony Davis of the New Orleans Pelicans, and James Harden of the Houston Rockets.
