    Sounds like some great idea. 2k15 is the best basketball game I've ever played imo. Looking forward to 2k16.
    NCAA: Kentucky Wildcats
    MLB: Atlanta Braves
    NBA: San Antonio Spurs

      This game definitely needs a revampe in the sound department. They need the crowd sound fixed and better music and organ play. They need to further detail the look of the courts. Gameplay wise they still need some way to have the big men play like big men. The Duncans of the world just seem useless still

        Bring back the Halftime show with actual first half highlights, and show highlights of other games going on around the league during NBA Today games/season/franchise mode games. Bring back the end of the game highlights montage.

          Online.. Give the online players more features..More stats.. Not just a play online now button. Some people take pride in the online game.

          And I agree with the comment above.. Let's get a half time show like college hoops 2k8

                Re: NBA 2K16: Some Ideas On How to Improve the Series

                I agree with everything posted so far. But personally, I would like to see the presentation overhauled. I want the arenas to have activity in them like last gen with people walking around and vendors.

                Go on ahead and get that TNT AND NBA TV presentation. Aren't they both Turner, anyway. NBA TV for regular games and TNT for Tuesday/Thursday and big holiday games. And throw in the Euroleague scoreboard and stat overlays (not full blown presentation) in there as well for those games. Give me the NBDL and I swear I'm set for MyLeague!

                Also, add pertinent banners and overlays. I'm playing with the Clippers, why are CP3's assists numbers being compared to those of John Stockton? Shouldn't it be to someone from his own organization, or someone he's at least close to passing?

                The commentary is good to me, just replace Kerr and add a real halftime show (Ernie & Shaq). Or do the Damon Bruce thing again and a weekly "Around the NBA" show with Ernie or Shaq.

                Fix the rebounding, too. Something is still just off to me.

                That's all I have. NBA 2K is already the best sports sim on the market IMO.

                    I'd also like to bring this up. Rumor from some months back saying that greg Anthony was replacing Steve Kerr. Although I'd rather see Chris Webber also.

                      How about let us use our custom rosters and draft classes for MyCareer? By your 3rd year the league is filled with a bunch of weirdo rookies. Don't know why they removed the custom roster load feature for MC. At least allow draft classes.

                        NBA 2K15 was a HORRIBLE game. It is a horrible game because:First of all, wassup wit the dumb coverage in this game? Let somebody try pass the ball all IN coverage, and it doesn't get picked off and thr player you playin against gets an easy score because of it
                        You got ball handlers running right through defenders, a center could go up for a fast break dunk and a fast point guard comes from behind and when the center's hands are already up for the dunk, the PG strips him with no foul called (just happened to me yesterday)... You got players missing an inside layup JUST because a defender simply raises their hand and the offensive player's standing layup rating is low, you got players engaging in the obvious pushing animation during inside layup attempts and there's no foul, KEVIN DURANT, Steph Curry, Kyrie Irving MAKE EVERYTHING online. Yall make it SO Hard for players to block a layup, but players can block dunks all day long with NO fouls called. You still got players actin like they don't know how to make a wide open pass, but anybody could throw and easily complete a long pass with defenders all over the receiver. People in online quick matches LOVE playing off ball defense so they play off-ball and just spam the square/X button all day long, and 2K took off the intentional fouls from 2k14; that was 2K's smartest idea!! (to force players to intentional foul after 3 presses of the square/X button). Why would they take that off!? I could play My player, online OR offline, I time a pass and somehow he misses, but he has interceptor gold, and let somebody tip a pass, the ball will end up behind them out of bounds or something; how is this stuff happening? 2k14 wasn't like this! WHY is it that in ONLINE quick matches 2K feels the need to STOP THE GAME TO SHOW SOME STATS THAT I REALLY DON'T FRICKING CARE ABOUT????????? Tryna be realistic sooooooo bad!!!! Just STOP!!!!!

                        Inbound passes; Yes INBOUND PASSES: WHY DOES 2K FEEL THE NEED TO MAKE SOMEBODY PASS THE BALL AAAAALLLL THE WAY UP THE COURT JUST SO SOMEBODY ELSE CAN SIMPLY INBOUND A BALL!!!!
                        AND WHY THE HELL CAN'T POINT GUARDS INBOUND THE BALL AND SIMPLY GET IT BACK LIKE IN REAL LIFE!!!??? Somebody get dunked on, they on the floor, now the PG picks up the ball and has to wait a year and a day JUST so that his teammate, who Just got dunked on, can inbound the ball. WHY CANT THE POINT GUARD DO IT AND INBOUND TO SOMEBODY ELSE TILL HIS TEAMMATE GET HIMSELF TOGETHER!!!???!?!?

                        For God Sakes!!: You need a SHOE ENDORSEMENT IN ORDER TO WEAR A PAIR OF SHOES. I get the Adidas Sponsorship, but I still can’t wear Adidas, so I'm still wearing 2K generic shoes. 2k so "realistic" right? SO why can’t I simply wear a pair of shoes I want if this game so "realistic"? At least let us BUY shoes with our coins, then get the rest of whatever shoe brand we bought for FREE after we get the endorsement!!
                        In my player, why tf does LeBron or Kevin Durant get a break in the beginning of the 4th quarter, but my myplayer doesn't!???? My myplayer is from a LOW RANKED MEAC university, I don't care WHAT his overall, ppg he averages, I DON'T CARE. There is no excuse for him NOT to get rest before the most crucial part of the game!!!



                        Park is stupid and it needs to be taken off. First of all: Why does everybody start off in a BROWN OUTFIT. 2K wanna be 'soooo realistic', who the hell is gonna show up to hoop in an ALL BROWN OUTFIT!?!?
                        I can press "got next" and he either finally responds after like 5 minutes, or he doesn't respond at all and somebody get in the spot that I JUST told my my player to get into. Park and JRC is just so laggy!! I don’t understand why 2K can’t just go back to matchmaking like 2K11, except just be able to simply be able to jump into a matchmaking or invite your friends to a 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, 5v5 online blacktop game, it’s that SIMPLE!! Bet you wouldn't have all these issues! Don't nobody got time to be waiting for a game to be over and getting a crew together just to play "Jordan Rec Center". THIS IS A VIDEOGAME, NOBODY HAS TIME FOR ALL THAT!! People just wanna simply take their my player, and simply get into a game!!!
                        AND STOP lettin people create all around 99 overall 7'3 my players; that sh!t is unrealistic. Shouldn't nobody be 90+ overall because if any of us was really 90+ overall, we'd be in the NBA no wouldn't we?
                        Stop makin it so easy to shoot on Jordan Rec Center and Park. Stop lettin so many shot go in despite great defense. Whats the point of playing defense if he just keeps making shots anyfrickenway! And dont give me that 'because it can happen in real life' bullsh!t, no, take it OFF.

                        YEAH I'm angry, NO Im not happy. This game is GARBAGE and them comments above me don't sound productive. Ay 2K, go fix this sorry excuse for a videogame.

                          disagree with the first 2.
                          interior defense. is fine. its all fundamentals. hands up.
                          defensive rebound is fine. its all about boxing out once the shot goes up. this is not broken. as a matter of fact defensive rebounding is too over powering. defensive rebounds skew a bit high.

                          sliders work.

                          presentation is top notch now,- but 2k constantly improves this. not to worried about this.



                          2k15 is a top notch title

                            There's a 65 page thread with tons of ideas on how to improve the game. Hopefully 2K is paying attention.

                              I think Greg Anthony would make a fine addition to the team. I like C Webb, but Anthony sounds more professional to me.

                                Make players from any seed facing each other play in a constant difficulty level. It is silly that you can play against an opponent that plays on pro slidesrs where you play on Superstar etc. This is just disrespectful for the players. I myself do not want to win either if I am being given an unfair advantage. (though it is better winning unfairly than losing unfairly)

                                Also i know it will sound a bit heretic, but I won;t even less % in the packs. I do not want to see anymore teams that have Wilt, and Hakeem in the bench, MJ as a sub, and Sapphire Dominique not making the 13 players. In FIFA no one has Messi and Ronaldo.

                                By having auch high % pack pulls 2k has managed to
                                a) create a repetitive myteam where 80% of the teams you face have the same roster.
                                b) devaluate their own products, as even players like Wade,Bosh,Duncan etc are never used. I myself would be happyif I had a big 3 in myteam,
                                Having a big 15 is too much and it takes away all realism.

                                c) in addition since most players had best available players in their teams by December, 2k started releasing cars with fantasy stats (PD,Ruby Dunkers with Centers with 99 speed) as this was the only option to make packs desired.
                                Again it decreases realism
