Re: NBA 2K16 Gameplay Blog With Mike Wang

I'm loving the blogs we've been getting these past few days. Most of my problems with the game seem to be fixed. But are coaches still going to call timeouts with 0.2 seconds left in a quarter to get you into the game in MyCareer? The unnecessary timeouts really ruined close games in MyCareer because both teams were out of timeouts by the 1 minute mark in the 3rd quarter.

Another thing I'd like to see fixed is the A.I. offensive rebounding. My teammates will get an offensive board and automatically force up a bad layup no matter how many defenders were around and no matter who was open. If I called for a pass after an offensive rebound I would normally get "bad call for pass" even when I'm open. When the rebounder finally passes it out to me it's inaccurate due to it being a pass out of a shot and that often leads to turnovers.

If I knew anything about game design, I'd want to work for Mike Wang and the NBA 2K team. Always raising the bar, and I appreciate bosses that acknowledge and share credit with the staff responsible. Thanks to Mike, Scott and Czar for the crazy amount of detail in the blogs.

NBA 2K16 is going to be pure fire. Congrats on a job well-done.

Can't wait the only thing is I feel the customization can be a little better especially with my career being a real big part of the game

You know how this works, right? The team at VC focuses only on CG.

Probably a glorified roster update tbh.

From what I've heard, that's exactly what PS3 2K15 was compared to PS3 2K14, too (though I at least hope PS3 2K15 didn't crash on loading MyCareer games like 2K14 did).

Yeah, it's time to move on. Save your money for a PS4. Believe me, it's worth it.

Might as well go dig up a blog from NBA 2k13, not sure much has changed.

I know a few people heard Mike Wang said about 2:56 seconds in "we have twee(3) dedicated pass buttons" lol

I was hoping to hear about charge/blocking and hear if we had any changes made...

I just want one feature - allow me to play Single Player offline to its fullest, for the oh so many times 2K servers crash.

Its gonna be a roster update. It's been time to upgrade to a new console/PC since 2k14. No sense in 2k wasting time on last gen features.

Although I didn't pick up NBA2k15, if it's the same as NBA2k14, then you should be able to play single player offline mode to its fullest. 2k14 servers have been cut off and I'm still playing 2k14 completely offline.

On release week, there were initial complaints about 14 not allowing the gamer to play offline (they're MyGm files weren't working properly; they couldn't boot it up or something). I was massively concerned as well because I'm strictly an offline gamer. Someone said to turn off your internet connection through your PS4 setting (or XB1 setting) BEFORE starting up the game. It worked. I'm happy. Forever offline in my 14' MyGM franchise.

If you're connected to the internet when starting up a franchise, that particular file will forever be linked to the online world. When 2k servers for shuts down, you'll be out of luck. Turning off your internet connection before starting up your game should do the trick. The only concern is roster updates and how that would work. I never updated my 14 rosters. I stuck with the default rosters.
