Re: ***Official NBA 2K15 Impressions Thread***

was just about to add the same thing about highlights. seems as any quarter length longer than 6 minutes and the player of the game highlights are broken again. Not the hugest deal but ugh I dont get how these things can be broken multiple years.

Tried a MyTeam game.. while the defense was there, so was the input lag we suffered in 2K14.

What's disappointing is the inability to edit your shot base and yet another year of broken signature highlights...somewhat small things but a black cloud over my experience...if 2k can patch this I'm all smiles...but very disappointing as of now...

Hey 24th, I suppose that means the shot chart is still broken too? SMH

One odd thing is that if I try to go to MyPark they're all empty. Maybe I'm on an European MyPark?

Re: ***Official NBA 2K15 Impressions Thread***

I haven't played 2K hoops in two years, so I am a bit frustrated at the moment trying to learn how to play it all over again, along with all the new features.

With that said...

Awesome game in every aspect. I can tell that this game is going to have a lot of depth to it. This game definitely won't get put on the shelf to collect dust just to be an eventual trade in game for something new down the road.

I've played about three quick games as the T-Wolves, and have lost all three games (Hornets, Celtics, and Heat.) Obviously I just wanted to try and dunk on everything that moved with Wiggins and LaVine. I had one nasty dunk by LaVine against Boston where that tall white guy (don't know his name) with the long Fabio hair got posterized. The crowd all jumped to their feet, celebrating, all celebrating differently. It was awesome.

Once I stop trying to make every game a dunk contest, I'll learn how to call plays, etc, and really dive deep into the association.

PS how do you throw an alley oop?

PPS The cheerleaders look like craigslist hookers thrown into a cheerleaders outfit. And if that's the only complaint, you know it's an awesome game.

Only negative so far, some bigs who grab offensive boards for their team are tooooo good at putting the ball in the net while being contested.

I'm looking at you Chris Andersen. Definitely not as skilled around the bucket as the game is making him out to be. But, it's still early so I'll see if it's a reoccurring thing.

I noticed stuff like this in gameplay videos. O still want more physical stuff in the paint, like the ability to pretty much hack guys if I choose

I would wait until more people get the game

Can someone tell me what new attributes were added to the player ratings?

Re: ***Official NBA 2K15 Impressions Thread***

Superstar\Sim plays a really good game

I put together a defensive master piece against the Spurs (I played the match up so much I had to switch teams) Final score was 65-55.

I really like how the CPU Spurs played. A good mix of offense. I think the Spurs took more mid range jumpers in the game I played then I saw from the CPU on out of the box settings all of last year, lol

Game is gorgeous on pc and plays like a dream, I'm scratching my head as to why I got it for Xbox too, especially with failing hard to get a good face haha.

2ktv doesn't seem to work in the pc so far, just doing the NBA today game lakers vs nuggets. Pace of the game is improved, already seeing tons of new animations and love the new camera angles, can see more of the stadium this way.

Playing in all star sim and The cpu is already beasting, going with the shot from outside with Gallinari and grabbing offensive boards with Faried.

Half time show is complete trash though and doesn't help with some players having jerseys of their previous team in th stats pics.

Also noticed a nice touch is players on the bench all come back with their warmups and lakers girls stay a bit around the court after their routines.
Edit : scratch that, I went into instant replay and they magically disappear as soon as the game starts, smh LD2K

Re: ***Official NBA 2K15 Impressions Thread***

A couple things I've noticed from demo..

+mid range jumpers by cpu
+excellent AI. I mean these guys really punish you for making mistakes(leaving guys open, not getting back, etc)
+better pacing. speed/acceleration feel much much better this year. love the weight shift.
+better shooting coming around off-ball screens.
+help defense and overall defense is 100% better. players actually guard their own guys!
+much better rim/net physics, shooting is actually more fun because of it.
+quicker reactions, players don't feel as floaty

-still some ugly *** shot releases
-scoring in the paint seems a little easy
-PSN really screwed me by making me redownload the game because my dsl is moving at dial up speed it seems.

Can't wait to dive deeper into the game. I feel like this will go down as one of the all-time greats.

Re: ***Official NBA 2K15 Impressions Thread***

Everybody is entitled to their opinion and the game is not perfect but i'm surprised some people are saying they are disappointed. Obviously we are still in the honeymoon period but this game has the potential to take over my life. It's light years ahead of last years game and is a blast to play.

Re: ***Official NBA 2K15 Impressions Thread***

On first inpression, the game seems very herky jerky to me. Everything seems very fast. I absolutely HATE how quickly the CPU brings the ball upcourt. The lack of any walking animations is very apparent and messes up the pace of the game.
