NBA 2K15 Wishlist

[Swauny Jones]

FOR THE LOVE OF GAWD some functional / reliable servers for once in the last 5-6 years would be great. That's all I can really ask for.

[Doomz92]

Bring Back Crews at least. Parks is a good idea but it isn't made for 2K Servers. Just stick to 5v5 FULLCOURT MyPlayer Gameplay. Better yet, Stick with CREW MODE. That's something the majority of us want so why keep it away. 2K12 - New Online Codes 2K13 - It's still Broken 2K14 - Water it down & call it CREWS & Park has POTENTIAL but these Servers hold it back. Every year its a new Online MyPLAYER Mode but not the one we want. GIVE US WHAT WE WANT & THAT'S CREW MODE!!!

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

I want the lag online to be abolished.

I want new rim sounds and net physics. We've had the exact same ugly net physics since like 2k7, time for something more realistic.

Online leagues.

Fixed help D.

Defensive Settings back.

Better trade logic.

More realistic presentation and graphic slides.

And the complete annihilation of VC

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

-i understand coding isn't easy, but if you're still struggling with trade/draft/rotation logic then bring back 30 team control.

-bring back association with full David Stern Mode capabilities (sorry silver sounds weird). ie: team relocation, jersey changes/modifications, expansion teams etc.

basically bring control back to users. thanks

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

A product that works ...

With all jokes aside, not a big list for me this year since I only played the game limitedly due to all the problems.

MyGM
- Too many contract extensions signed during the regular season. Should happen 75% of the time in the off-season.
- Ability to execute 3-team trades. Also make the A.I perform 3-team trades with one another.
- More in-depth draft picks when trading. For example, lottery protected, swapping picks, trading picks beyond 2 years, etc.
- More than 4 slots when proposing trades.
- Majority of non-lottery rookies should be receiving limited playing time. They should mainly get the opportunity to play when injury occurs or lack of depth at the position.

And most importantly, and I beg you 2K- I've been asking for this for several years now, allow the option for users to select the amount of games played per season (14, 29, 56 or 82) on both MyCareer and MyGM.

Also, for further wishlists and ideas, see my signature below for past 2K wishlists that might've been missed- trust me, you'll thank me later :wink:

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

Bring back the D-League, Summer league, and integrate euroleague into association and myCareer.

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

1. Bring Back Local Saves: This would include the ability to have numerous saves of each type (i.e. eight roster saves, three franchise modes, two MyPlayers, etc.).

2. Bring Back Create-a-Player: In addition, provide update to dated create-a-player model. New haircuts, new facial hair, the ability to add masks, the ability to add goggles, etc.

3. Bring Back Manual Saves

4. Bring Back ReelMaker with YouTube Upload Capability

5. Overhaul on-court audio samples: This includes the sound of slam dunks, missed shots, made swishes, made almost-swishes (touching the back rim on the way down), crowd response, and more (thread: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...tmosphere.html).

Also, from the linked thread above, it'd be cool to see the NBA's newer rims that flex and breakaway slightly to the sides make it into the game (as in the Nate Robinson dunk clip).

6. Return a Sense of Realism to MyPlayer Mode: Some aspects of MyPlayer that I do not feel match NBA 2K's typical simulation mission statement:

A. Players being paid in gold
B. Mime teammates
C. Near immediate rise to incredible stardom
D. Having to use significant portions of salary to purchase accessories (and different colorways of those accessories)
E. Every, single career featuring the same exact storyline of a player rising from the street courts to the NBA

Some aspects of MyPlayer that I feel would restore a sense of realism that's consistent with what gamers have come to expect out of NBA 2K's quality simulation product over the years:

A. Players paid with real money
B. The re-introduction of the Draft Combine, Summer League, Training Camp, and D-League
C. Varied career paths that do not always lead to earning a starting job after 20 regular season games
D. Spending money only on things that'd actually cost money (i.e. not paying to alter one's shot release)
E. The ability to choose one's jersey number, even after being traded or signing with a new team
F. The game recognizing and choosing the correct jerseys for your team (ex: Sunday night alts). If nothing else, allowing the gamer to make the correct choice.

7. Steer MyGM Back Toward Reality: Some of the new implementations of MyGM have potential to move the franchise mode forward. However, I feel a few of the new additions are completely out of place and are inconsistent with an NBA basketball simulation. Namely, I feel the "leveling up through earning VC" to be almost completely off-base and almost entirely divorced from any semblance of real-life front office replication.

8. Bring Back Franchise Control Options: This includes 30 team control, forced trades, jersey options, complete freedom to run an NBA league as we saw fit.

9. Full Fleshing Out of Classic Jerseys: I feel finally completing the collection would allow gamers a more fully customizable experience that'd keep a large portion of the NBA fanbase engaged and locked in (fans of classic teams and fans of creating teams). Speaking of creating teams...

10. Bring Back Create-a-Team. Enhance it: Provide the ability add city names or team names across the jersey breast. Implement a thorough court-editor (similar to NCAA College Hoops 2K8).

11. Add More Classic Teams: There's a dedicated faction of basketball gamers thirsty for any sort of classic team improvements. Classic teams are real NBA teams that have existed and are very much a part of an authentic NBA experience. Even if rights acquisitions are difficult, there's many recent classic teams (comprised largely of current players or classic players already in the game) that'd make wonderful additions (2007 Warriors, 2000 Raptors, 2008 Celtics, 2006 Suns, 2000 Lakers, etc.).

12. Provide ability to edit player's shorts length: Primarily for the sake of classic team customization

13. More freeing ability to assign correct accessory and shoe colorways

I agree with the Summer-League and all but maybe not as long, not everyone wants to play 6-10 games before playing in an actual NBA game.

Local saves
32-team control season mode

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

1. DEFENSIVE SETTINGS!!!! POEs alone are not sufficient or sim.

2. Reasonable VC implementation/reward/costs/game balance.

3. Offline save functionality for rosters, replays, etc.

These MUST be addressed to even have what can be considered a solid, functional, sim game next year.

[RipCityAndy]

No more VC. It's really bad.

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

I agree with the Summer-League and all but maybe not as long, not everyone wants to play 6-10 games before playing in an actual NBA game.

I can relate to you on the monotony of Summer League in previous editions of 2K. Some additions I'd recommend to enhance the draw and replay value of Summer League and D-League:

1. Include the Ability to Simulate Games (or skip Summer League altogether): I believe in a simulation Summer League/D-League schedule, but I also believe in giving gamers choices. I could see myself getting to a point where I wouldn't want to play a full slate of games while still loving that I can play in the Summer League or D-League if I wanted to.

2. Authenticate the Summer League/D-League environment: Currently, there's two Summer Leagues: one held on the Orlando Magic's practice court (lasting one week) and another held at UNLV's Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas (also one week). I think having the proper areas hosting these events would do a lot for the sake of immersion and authenticity.

For the D-League, I'd understand authentic arenas would be tough to come by (a little more difficult catering to an entire league's arena lineup versus the Summer League's mere two venues). Still, I'd at least like to see the proper court art for each squad.

3. Proper Summer League Gear: This is largely in reference to employing proper practice jerseys for summer league in addition to including proper D-League jerseys. NBA 2K offers practice gear as wearable options already. It'd be nice to give them a real spot to be worn (aside from Practice mode).

4. Assistant Coaches Heading Each Squad in Summer League. Perhaps authentic D-League coaches (or generics who are editable in name and appearance)

5. Summer League/D-League Rosters Filled Out with Available Young Free Agents or at Worst, Editable Generics (including name edit capability).

6. Authentic Arena Sounds: Orlando's Summer League features almost no spectators, leading to the sounds of the game taking center stage. Meanwhile, Las Vegas has fans, but it can be at least somewhat sparse. It obviously won't sound like an NBA arena (something 2K covered well in their first Summer League/D-League go-around).

7. Availability During Association Mode: In addition to MyPlayer, it'd be nice to have the Summer League and D-League available to play and work with during franchise modes, allowing gamers to work out draft picks and potential young signees (or returning youths).

In the case of the D-League, it'd be legit to create an authentic enough environment (rosters, coaches, teams) that it could offer a mid-season respite (at worst) for those who have grown tired of the monotony of playing with the same NBA team each night. MVP Baseball 2005 nailed this aspect. Their minor league clubs were fully editable and featured an enjoyable change of pace.

In its past life, I believe the D-League was largely ignored in 2K by gamers due to its lack of customization. It was real teams featuring very fake players. Being able to fill those teams out authentically makes a world of difference. Allowing gamers to download D-League rosters from 2KShare would be a significant bonus.

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

1. Dynamic season: play your franchise mode with real events and scores and trades so you don't see fake and weird rosters. Tired of playing teams that I'm hyped for only to realize they traded away major pieces for crap players. Of course your players would remain untouched unless you would agree to it via the phone call from the gm

2. 3 team trades, sign and trade, allow start season from current date and select how many games should be in the season.

3. Proper character creation

4. Saves to the system.

5. Adaptive commentary, take segments from play by play and refresh the commentary.

6. Give the owner a voice or the players even if it's like Microsoft Sam, Siri or similar to your navigation ai that you use. I'll take a heavily robot voice rather than just plain text and mime characters.

7. Get paid in dollars not in vc and price things accordingly.

8. Add range as a rating, some can hit from deep

9. Classic 2000 teams. Lakers rockets etc

That's all I can think of while I'm on the john but I'll be back

Re: NBA 2K15 Wishlist

Integrate how each franchise is built. This consists of FA signings, draft, trade, etc.

Integrate coach experience and what type of players they prefer. This should determine how each team plays. What's the point of coaches at the moment? Player tendencies shouldn't outweigh coach profiles.

List players as superstar, star, starter, 6th man, role player, bench player, prospect. This way players are more valued by certain coaches and franchises.

Integrate player role + salary + current form + how he fits in a system to determine his actual value. This is dynamic rating per team.

Commissioner mode for offline GM. Let us veto bad CPU trades when 2ks logic fails.

Revamp the ratings. Quit being nice to so many players. An athlete shouldn't get to tweet Ronnie and get an upgrade.

More analysis on replays. I'd like to see a replay from say the first period be replayed in the third if it was vital.

Better sound. Arena atmosphere and revamp the intensity of certain games. Rivalries need to reflect that. Tired of every game being the same exact.

Quit letting non dancing fools doing the dougie pre game. Looks ridiculous. Do it right or take it out.
