    NBA 2K15 Gameplay...a bit worrisome

    Doesn't make their life easier when dudes come with pitchforks and torches like a couple of people have. I'm 100% confident the update addresses the issue to some extent. But if it creates a new one or isn't effective enough, will people claim they were lied to? Just throwing that out there.

        To touch on this, the on-ball defense in 2k15 is a mix of 2k14 last gen and bumps. Id say the biggest differences between the two would be that defenders backpeddle on 14LG when you do moves instead or realistically shifting directions like they do in 15CG. On 14LG the cpu defenders seemed to use the shuffling better especially in the full court press. And finally on 15CG the bumps initiated with contact are more handicapping vs 14LG.

        The bumps arent terrible, but they occasionally last a lil too long and cant be countered, when in reality ( if your handles and timing are good enough) there is almost always a counter. Im trying to master the use of dribbles that dont initiate contact, however thats easier said than done since, as far as i can tell, that's only stationary moves and sig size ups.

        All that said, its worlds better than 2k14 current gen.
        Good to hear! I've felt in the last few years the defensive player was to slow or sluggish opposed to the offensive player which in the end made it feel unstoppable with guys who were really good on the sticks IMO (at least online which can be attributed to lag). Does on ball defense feel more responsive, quicker in your opinion?

          it can, ur defender really matters.

          its best to use the left stick mostly, and use the other options to maintain your chosen distance.

          its a game of give and take, like for exaple your going to HAVE to give Rose jumpers vs a skilled user.

            Such a relief to see Mike come in and insta-squash the worry I was feeling going through the later pages of this thread and seeing the glaring blow-by defense issue persist on Superstar/Sim. Makes me feel a lot better about my pre-order and only reinforces what I think (hope) will be a very strong come-back year for NBA2K.

              Online play with my friend and experiencing tons of input lag....
              And while using on-ball Def, player slide far away with just a slight movement of left stick....

              Totally different from offline gameplay

              It's unplayable.... Anyone feels the same?

                Well, it's not supposed to be playable yet, so maybe the lag is intentional or a product of servers that haven't fully come online yet.

                  I've seen some videos of my park that appear to be playing lag free

                      Was watching a stream of Park last night and yea it looked pretty fine.
                      I don't wanna be Jordan, I don't wanna be Bird or Isiah, I don't wanna be any of those guys.
                      I want to look in the mirror and say I did it my way.

                            Exactly.

                            U can't tell without actually playing it~ The animation is smooth but it's 1 second delayed to yr input

                            Hopefully everything will be fixed on the official release day

                              Simple logic man. They aren't gonna make the game look bad on purpose just before release. Either the servers are open and players with the game early are welcome to play or the servers are closed.

                              The servers might not be functionning at 100% but that's not 'on purpose, because you're not supposed to play'.

                                I also don't get where all of this "server" talk is coming on. I've never heard of 2K saying that it uses dedicated servers, and most companies don't. The game should be P2P. Also purposely throttling connectivity because it's early makes zero sense. In fact if there were a way to make negative sense it'd be that.
