NBA 2K15 has NO regard for Fouls.

Re: NBA 2K15 has NO regard for Fouls.

At the risk of sounding un-sim I'm glad I don't have to sit and watch the cpu shoot 35 free throws per game. Anything around 20 is fine by me. I play 12 minute quarters, and with each team shooting 30+ free throws it would take an hour and half to play a game.

12 minutes a quarter alone is too long for me lol

That is why I love the ability to save in mid game.

Yeah if it wasn't for this I wouldn't be on 12 min quarters. Most of the time I'm picking up from half time of one game and go to the half of another.

Don't get me wrong. This is a good game minus a couple of glitches here and there, this game is enjoyable.

However I've come across an issue; an issue that's really been in every 2K I've played.

The refs do not blow their whistles. And it would be fine if they at LEAST called a shooting fouls twice every quarter for both the ai and human. However, you'll be lucky if you even get one.

In the NBA last season, the lowest FT attempts by team was 20 and that was the Knicks. Kevin Durant averaged 10 free throws by him self. Demar Derozan averaged 8.

So I decided to do a test. I tried it out 3 different times with 6 different teams.

I played on Superstar, Simulation. However, I changed some sliders. I put all the fouls up on both user and cpu, changed the CPU "Attack the basket" tendency all the way to 100. Put " Shoot midrange" and "Shoot 3 Point" tendency to Zero. Also put "contest shots frequency"for both cpu and user all the way to 100.

I only, however, started to actually record notes of the issue in the 2nd quarter a game where the Hawks were playing the Raptors. I was the Raptors. I decided to start tallying how many times both teams went to the basket and fouls were called at about the 5th minute of the second quarter. I kept note ONLY ON CONTACT ANIMATIONS SHOTS

Both teams ended up going to the line for a combined amount of 10 times. They however drew a contact animation 83 times.

That is a serious problem. Don't know if that can be patched but to go to bucket that many times and only get the whistle blew 10 times?

That's a serious problem. For those of you guys who are able to draw fouls and cpu is also drawing fouls, please share your secret.

Hes the Team Comparison Stats below.

Nice man. Good breakdown. We need more posts like this instead of just "THIS GAME SUCKS (*@^@(^$@)"

Last I heard is 2K was actively working on this. I've noticed this too. Definitely a problem in the game that takes away from the experience.

Wow that is crazy. With going that extream you should see like 100 freethrows. But yeah the refs just don't blow there wisols. I wish we would get an update about this. I think the last we heard form 2k about this was like 10 days ago when they said the patch would be submitted soon. I hope that doesn't mean that the patch still has not been submitted.

Glad you are happy with the current free throw situation. If/when fouls are patched you can make sure to adjust the sliders to your liking while some of us crank them up

I hope it hasn't been submitted (pretty sure it hasn't), because that would mean the PC patch is on a delay like the consoles--I haven't gotten any updates from Steam. Plus, if it's still being worked on, perhaps we can hope something is being fine-tuned or even still added.

Re: NBA 2K15 has NO regard for Fouls.

been sayin people say they went and edit players fouls and hard fouls and maybe even the draw foul slider too, wonderin if anyone did at least every teams starters and uploaded it online lol

Re: NBA 2K15 has NO regard for Fouls.

I can't count how many times per game I wanna throw the controller due a no-call that clearly looks like a foul.

It'd be a collosal waste to do this before 2K releases the patch.

Yeah but if it hasn't been submitted then that means at least another like 3 weeks for the patch and a longer weight. When they said going to be submitted soon I figured they where going to submittit in like a week if not sooner.

Not true with next gen. EA UFC, for example, submitted multiple patches to both PS4 and X1 and they were available within a week.

Re: NBA 2K15 has NO regard for Fouls.

Is it for certain that there is a patch coming out this year for the fouling?

Yes. If you read further up in the thread it's been confirmed that they worked on fouls for the next patch.

Re: NBA 2K15 has NO regard for Fouls.

OK good, that to me is the only major issue that sliders cannot fix.
