Sure there's impossible to eliminate lag, but if you play any other sports game(PES,FIFA,MLS,even NBA Live), make a comparison, it's easily to find out 2K has a huge problem in online experience. Input delay and movement lag ruin all the online modes of NBA2K15.

100%! I could not say it better

I probably won't play a lot of this mode seeing as I don't have a lot of Psn friends but damn does this make me hopeful for team relocation in MyGm and myLeauge

So, were those 2k16 graphics or 2k15's graphics used for this trailer?

Think about most of those games you mentioned. You are zoomed out from the player to see the whole field. The lag is less evident/noticeable. Now look at a game like Madden, where you are close to the players. You can see noticeable input lag.

This....is what I was waiting for...I am so dang happy!

My BIGGEST question regarding this is: If I have 3 friends and my own created team, does the game fill out 2 players for the rest of the roster or do you HAVE to have 2 other users?

I'm hoping this is like Fifa's Pro Club mode where it fills out your roster with generic players. It would be even better if you could unlock NBA players to fill out your squad.

But it would bother me if I had to have to learn to play with/rely on two other players that are random each time if only two other friends are on..

Mike Wang said they were doing something big to make it the best game they have ever released, and its driving his gmaeplay engineers crazy.. so i not really worried about it in that section.. Gameplay can always improve, but their gameplay is already great, its not as bad as people make it out to be

Everyone knows that if it's not absolutely perfect gameplay, it's trash. Makes total sense...

















To crazy people.

OK, lets talk about other games for a second:

Live which doesn't even have 10% of the 2K traffic will STILL on occasion have nasty latency and lag.

FIFA and PES both use a networking model that will lead to outcomes on the field that are different across systems as well as warp guys.

Because of FIFA, EA has to have a MASSIVE datacenter backbone. Something that 2K has only recently started to actually build up. After the big outage last year - when 2k started the rebuild of the server infrastructure - things got a LOT better and I see it continuing to grow.

I seriously don't think 2K was really ready for the success of this game. It's become part of the modern culture as much as Madden. That's saying something. But the price of that is that the company has to start thinking MUCH bigger than it has ever have and we will see if it can be done fast enough.

Well, that sort of thing happens when you become a monopoly due to EA's cancellation of the NBA Live series a few years back.

This is cool for a lot o people. I'm waiting to hear about regular gameplay. I have never did my player on any 2k I have owned. I did the 2k team once. I'm happy for everyone though and the sonics court was cool

We have Plenty of gameplay stuff to talk about when the time comes.

As a dev when you see the work other people are putting in on their area's. You want to be certain your part lives up to that level of excitement. We feel very good about where we are at right now. Just don't get over hyped. It's still a game and all games no matter how dope always have areas they can improve upon.

Yo it's crazy we finally got what we want back for the most part.

Need to be able to have more than 5 guys on a team so if one's not on the whole team can't play...we can just throw in another. And also we need to be able to be on more than 1 team at a time. I can't do a bunch of work and editing on jerseys, courts, and logos just to lose it all if I'm on another team cuz my main dudes aren't on.

Definitely hope they did some more work on the ratings so everyone's not a 95 on day 1..that's a good way to ruin a mode they put so much work into. But if not then it's whatever it's still thousands of times better than last year.

Stuff is insane... I'm not even one of those dudes who was crying for Crew mode to comeback and they just went above and beyond with this stuff, I may even decide to touch the online space this year.

Hopefully the uploading images is pretty strict though, cause you know every 12-year old out there is gonna try and see if they can get away with uploading dicks or whatever.

Welp, just killed my Boston Boners idea...

I don't even like these modes because of the way people abuse things but THIS! I might have to dabble! The possibilities! I know this mode is meant to be more of an arcadey exhibition buuuuut...I'm praying that it at least resembles basketball. PLEASE make defense matter! The Park got to the point where it was just a bunch of idiots turboing around. If they make it to where stick skills and IQ make a difference this could be gold for me!

I wouldn't call it a monopoly. It's not about that. People don't realize that, by itself, this game more than doubled the size of the audience for video game basketball. Meaning, it's success went FAR beyond being the only option for a couple of years.

Listen, i'm gonna be HYPED if i can recreate the late 2000s Sonics team/arena. I'm really REALLY hoping this customization is in MyLeague man.
