    Only huge negative I see and the reason I havent picked up this game since 2k13.

    is that the Virtual Currency model is still horrible. and I wonder I havent heard much about this. (Maybe I just have noticed)

    Micro transactions as a whole on full priced retail games are insane.
    Can't agree with you more on this, it's a travesty that the game play and everything important just keeps getting better and better but it's stuck inside this business model that causes everything to be done online and with a price tag.

    It seems as if they've gotten their servers up to par this year, but for the last two years launch day and the weeks after it have been a total mess due to this always online, always accumulating "coins" thing.

      I had so much more fun in that first game I played while the game was copying. That was on Pro.

      I just need to go back. I will try Pro tonight with a bad team against a really good one. Usually my way of judging if the difficulty is too easy.

        Thanks, I'm considering upping Off Rebs for User and lowering for CPU. I've had some games where I have 3 Off Rebs w/Bucks and the opponent has 12 or 13.

        We'll see, glad we have time to tinker.

          The more I play this game the more I'm blown away! From the adaptive AI, to the little nuances like grabbing & trying to hold when a defender gets burned from a screen, to the physics, to the player emotion, etc... The gameplay has so much depth to it. The attention to detail in this game is amazing.

          If they clean up some of the bugs, fix the defensive warping animations & clean up the player clipping/morphing with players body parts fusing together at times then this game will be a masterpiece!

              can you say what those exact changes are?...User or CPU? (I know CPU Awareness is for CPU obviously)

                New to 2K16 on X1, been playing on 360 for many years,, I'm just going to echo what everybody been saying...

                Great Game! Gameplay is excellent.. I like how the game is slowed and running plays is almost mandatory

                MyPlayer is amazing, story and all is well done

                Many good game modes... MyCareer, MyPark, Pro Am, MyGM, etc..

                There are so many small cool things that make it great, i.e. In-Game interviews, Shaq/Kenny/Ernie post game, crowd atmosphere in High School and College are great

                MyPark reminds me of Old Run & Shoot Gym in ATL with many courts and squads

                I think it deserves a 10/10!!

                    No but I added an under-shirt that I cannot remove!! So I think there are a few things like this that aren't working properly.

                            Game play solid but issue with player of game on ps4 for three straight years is unforgivable. Shows a lack of quality control. Def will rent or bypass next game. I paid full price and expect a fully functional game. And since things were never addressed in previous games and still exists even today, I'll pass next time.

                                for users on PC...

                                I just launched the game on Steam and it had a pop-up that contains the locker code needed to access the pre-order bonuses...seems like the finally got things sorted out

                                just input that code in Features/Options in-game where the Locker Codes option is and you'll get the bonuses

                                it's also on the side under CD Key in Steam now if you somehow lose the code
