-Does rebounding with 7 footers still suck? i remember if i used a pf or center over 6'10 they would have awful jumping ability. I would be in rebounding position but the ball could barely jump for the ball or just completely miss the ball when i know for sure i should of grabbed it.

-is floaters fixed? it was over powered in next gen 2k14, every floater i attempted went in 90 percent of the time even when i had a defender on me. I dont even think it was a legit floater, it was like a fall back leaner that like goes in everytime.

i think anything else i wanted to know was already answered those are my only two questions im curious about.

Is the RVD 5 star frog splash animation by the cpu gone when you pump fake? One of the many terrible animations in 14.

Re: Q & A time

Not sure if this was possible in the demo - if you play with player lock on, what is the intelligence of your team like on both defense and offense? Are open shooters on the perimeter still charging into the paint, waiting for the defense to reach them, etc. instead of taking the shot?

Re: Q & A time

'Pulling the Chair' and flopping for a charge on post defense was in 2K14 PS3 but not PS4. Will it comeback on PS4 2K15?

Re: Q & A time

Most of the times I get that fresh feeling like playing a new game when I played the final version. At gamesom it always feels very similar or I cant tell the diffrences right away while also playing in a different setting. But I think I will stick to telling my gut feeling - I dont want anyone to overhype like its a totally different game when I dont see it.

At this point, I don't personally feel different for the sake of feeling different or a like a new game really adds anything on its own. If it feels different because it feels/looks/acts better, then great. But if it polishes what worked before, that's great too. If there's something foundational that needs changing leading to a new feel, then I'm all for it, but chances are a lot hasn't changed because a lot works pretty well.

I suspect things might feel different if we ever get true foot planting, but 2k has been working up to that in small increments that we might not totally feel the difference even when we get there.

Per usual an insightful post by brotha Sundown. If they begin to turn their focus to polishing that probably means they are at a point to begin attacking some legacy issues.

The risk there is that exactly as DaWolf pointed out the game may not scream newness when you first put your hands on it. But if you recall the older 2k's seemed to get better to more time you spent with them. The deeper you went the more you could appreciate the nuanced game-play.

As a sim focused community it's up to you guys to determine what is more important adding layers of depth and complexity and attacking legacy issues that may not always be easily seen from watching, or making each game feel new.

Your feedback goes further than you might think in allowing for either course of action.

Great post Sundown the only thing missing was your usual GS Warrior man crush.

Re: Q & A time

Legacy issues have really started to creep up on the game, it's good to know some of those issues have been squashed and that the team seems to have learned from some of the missteps.

Maybe this year it's possible to play a bit of defense if we're not sliding/bumping all over the place.

Re: Q & A time

3 questions

1. Have you played with the knicks or was the demo only heat vs spurs?

2. Is the out of bound foul gone, where youre running towards out of bounds with a man on you and a foul gets called, happens 100 percent of the time

3. Any player ratings?

Thanks for saying so. It's been awhile. My GSW obsession had me occupied on Warriors forums for the better part of the year. I could only keep up arguing with folks on one forum at a time. Lol. Doesn't mean I don't think about the game and play it all the time.

The game has frustrating moments and issues, but overall I am enjoying the core of what's been built there. Whipping a bounce pass through a gap on a fast break feels like a joy. There are a ton I improvements possible but I care more year to year that the game looks and plays more sim than that it feels like a new product that justifies my purchase. Sim ball is just an established part of my life now and I want to see significant improvement each year. If that means a new feel, great. If it feels the same-ish but plays a lot better, sweet.

Re: Q & A time

Yeah i can careless about new features i just want some core legacy issues to be fixed i want a vast separation from people who can actually ball and people who just mastered the cheese, im tired of garbage players being able to compete with me because of the games issues, i played enough players who just combine multiple exploits to compete

I do want new features-- when they enable me more realistic control.

Like controllable lob passes. Are they in? I suspect they are in. I also suspect the control is Left Trigger + Y/triangle.

Am I right, Beluba? /eyebrow waggle

As usual, sundown, you are correct
