Where where where where where is this at man?! I'm so tired of hearing this complaint! This NEVER happens to me, on this gen, current gen or any future gens. I would LOVE to see you and every other smuck who complains about this so much play a game. And I bet over 97% of you stink, don't play on ball defense and totally have no clue to what playing a NBA game is all about.

The menu, rosters, and other just terrible!
Never expect a launch title to be perfect because the chances of that happening are slim to none.

I'm really tempted to buy the game after reading this thread. On a semi-related note, this has me very excited to see what 2k can do with WWE 2k15...

The core foundations and gameplay are outstanding. Excellent rebuild and takes the game to whole new level.

The feature set and polish around the core rebuild however is rough around the edges and I would say incomplete. But thats OK, this will be improved in the coming years.

With regards to myGM and myPlayer specifically, I feel the new interface around the modes was a good idea in theory but terrible in practice. At the end of the day, we want it feature rich, functional, tactical game rather then something interactive and majorly dressed up visually. I want something more akin to Football Manager than a one dimensional cutscene fest.

Overall experience is very good but not excellent. But with limited time and resources, they got the core game right which gives them an excellent foundation for the following years.

I can never play a game! It stays on the loading screen after picking my team to play with. Is this happening to other people as well?? I dont know what to do. Spent 65 bucks on this game and haven't been able to jump into a game. It's Digital btw.

IS THERE ANY WAY TO EDIT SHOES FOR NBA PLAYERS, SO THAT YOU CAN PLAY WITH THEM AND SEE THE SHOES IN A QUICK GAME?

Stunning, amazing one of the best looking next gen titles graphically other than RYSE and Killzone.

Gameplay is solid is hell, it has that new feel as well as the rock solid gameplay nba2k is known for.

Easily the best on court basketball game ever. Weight, position, physics all finally are factors. The game feels 'alive' like no other sports game I have ever played.

Unfortunately, the game has MASSIVE bugs all through it. Rosters that don't load, settings messed up, play books defaulting to the wrong team. Everything now depends on how it is patched. It could go down as a great game OR it may well go down as a disgraceful mess. 2K needs to respond.

Easily the most "alive" and best looking sports game I've ever played. If we get patches , season mode, 30 team user control easily the best sports game. The show should be good too on ps4. If we could only get same love for football and hockey.

Hey,
does anybody know how to delete custom made shoes? I just can't find that option.
And another question: Is it possible to change the way to defend a player, like defend him loose or tight? Did they leave it out this year?

Thanks in advance.

I can forgive its shortcomings as the game looks and plays as good as those trailers promised. For me, its def a true next gen experience

Its like avoiding Kate Upton naked on your bed because you see shes drooling and farting..but shes still Kate Upton

Agreed on your assessment of waiting on 2K15 and Madden 15. Drooling is one thing (yuck), but farting? Please. Kate gets it. Trust me, my GF farts all the time around. Means nothing to me. I laugh with her and I'm still loving her.

Sad to say it, but the first year of sports games are a beta test. It was all about graphics, not modes. I'll give kudos on gameplay. It's good. I see no reason for me to rush and get a PS4...

I played it for the 1st time for 2 hours last night. Scoring feels great. The players move, and the animations are very responsive. I did not play 2k14 on CG just so I could enjoy NG THAT much more. I hate the menus. And defense is a challenge and also a chore. i love the fact this game punishes you for spamming the steal button with fouls or blowing right by you ...that is what a good game SHOULD do. But I hate the close outs by the defense on perimeter shooters. No way should anyone leave Ray Allen, Wade, pierce, Terry etc. As much space as the CPU defenders allow. So not only do I have to play excellent defense at the point of Attack to limit penetration, I have to help rebound (way too many offensive boards) and close out on shooters. A great TEAM does need to do ALL of that to be successful but not even MJ could do THAT much on his own.

All that being said. Great game. I have a Samsung high end plasma and cant express how good this game looks and "feels". Blocks are a bit overpowered ...but I enjoy a good swat as much as a monster dunk. in my first few games I have executed a perfect Kobe fall away and a Melo reverse pivot spin with a kiss off the glass.

I just hope they can patch some more user control in this bad boy ...

Very unhappy with how AI players play off the ball. They go inside when they're good shooters when I pass them the ball and vice versa. Sometimes they crowd the paint when I'm posted up. If a play is supposed to be run but I'm tired of running it for the 30th time that game, they'll stand around if the person who's supposed to have the ball doesn't, which can lead to bad spacing and players in the wrong spots on the floor. But maybe the most annoying thing is, NOBODY SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO GET THEIR FEET BEHIND THE ARC! This is especially true in the corners. These good 3 point shooters will camp in the corner, and when I get them the ball their foot is on the line and the shot ends up being a 2. In prev gen when this would happen it would seem the computer would auto correct for you as you went to shoot - gamey perhaps, but Kyle Korver isn't going to accidentally have his foot on the line when he has a wide open corner 3, so it made up for the AI's dumb behavior.

Can't you adjust the duration of cpu games in MYCareer anymore? I always play 6 min. quarters with sll the other games going the full distance. Hence, the stats of all players of my team are miserable. That sucks.
On the "Pro" difficulty level the shooting percentages in general and especially the 3pt. Percentage are too high. I could not find any sliders to adjust that?

This animation has been hurting 2K for years IMO.

It occurs when a guy with the ball runs in to a defender and is bumped back 2 steps. Whatever move he was in or direction he was heading is killed (Im choosing to ognore the fact its a foul every time) I was running down on fastbreak full speed with Westbrook and he got sucked into this animation from Collison. No way this would actually happen.

Players absorb contact. Watch Reggie Jackson navigate a pick and roll. He takes contact but it never shunts him backwards 2 steps. The 'hit zone' for this animation is very large so it activates even when the ball handler is not going directly at the defenders chest.

It shouldnt be necessary to cross guys over to get by them. Watch how often guys do it by simply speed bursting and getting their front shoulder by.

A solution? Dont make the defender's entire body and the area around them as the 'hitzone' that activates the animation. If the defender is highly rated and keeping up increase their chances of not letting them by, rather than pushing them back.
