Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
this is a great game so far. a great foundation for years to come for 2k. a few issues i have is in transition defense when coming off of offense as the human player vs. cpu. sometimes the a few defenders get caught in no mans land leaving the cpu free for layups or dunks.
the arrow pointing you to the defender goes a little haywire and the cpu controlled defender runs back and fourth seemingly between 2 defensive scenarios and you get burned for a layup or dunk
in 2k15, when you got near a man on defense, your defensive teammate would almost immediately rotate and pick up the open man. in 2k16 this doesnt happen as fast as it should. if there is a good spot on defense where the players can switch back on to the man they're supposed to guard, this should happen fast.
i think ACE defense is great and it can be adjusted based on the level you play at...pro, all star etc. but, if i am lebron james and i am being picked up by james harden, i fully expect to be able to get by him at a high percentage. there were too many times where i was kyrie irving, stephen curry and had a matchup with a poor defender or a big and he was able to defend me successfully. good cpu defense with ACE should be more strategic and less lockdown with poor on ball defenders.
there were also several times when i grabbed a rebound, passed it to the SF and he inexplicably heaves a full court shot. all this happens well after my fingers are off the button. this has happened once a game for me.
and the game atmosphere minus pre-game still sucks. seems like this is the easiest thing to get right with crowd sounds and game like atmosphere. seems like they put more time in trying to make the crowd follow the ball and no time into replicating game time arena atmosphere.
i wouldnt even be so hard on 2k if this hadnt been done well before. but there was an EA offering in 2010 or 11. where they got it spot on. the arena atmosphere itself made me want to play the game.Last edited by mvpd34; 10-01-2015, 08:09 AM.Comment

It's a lovely thing!! I use to be a HOF guy. But I'm now playing on Pro lol. Big difference in 2 years.
I just love when playing the bulls they ICE me all the time.
I've watched it a few times. It's definitely because he switches and Roy is too slow.Last edited by jeebs9; 10-01-2015, 08:18 AM.Hands Down....Man Down - 2k9 memories

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
After the dunk by Hibbert, when Walker has the ball, notice the "who to guard" arrow, it goes from Hibbert to Huertas. So the CPU is controlling Kobe and Jordan all that time. I don't switch to Kobe until the ball is almost to Kidd-Gilchrist. I make a ton of User error plays a game, this isn't one of them.
If you want to say that I should automatically switch to the last man back and stand under the rim, then OK, but I think it's reasonable for me to expect those two guards to not let a player walk to the front of the rim unimpeded.Jordan Mychal Lemos

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
I was already getting a pretty good grasp on dribbling, but changing the stick controls to absolute made me that much better...doing some nasty stuff now..
BTW, I HATE James Harden in this game...dude is just too good. CPU hit me with a nasty step back in my last game.Comment

i was about to create a list of the most
common complaints hoping that maybe
someone in touch with 2k saw it and even
passed the notes along, but after reading
all the comments (i literally read them all)
i realized most other players answer these
issues with reasonable solutions, so maybe
it's just that people want 2k to reply because
some don't respect it coming from other players
while those who do, find the answers they need.
there are actual tweaks needed by 2k but mostly
issues can be fixed by sliders or correcting alot
of user errors and breaking our 2k15 bad habits.A Man Chooses; A Slave ObeysComment

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
Let Me knock on wood, but I haven't won a game on pro yet with the Celtics and just got blown out by New Orleans, but the practice game did me some good because I was able to kick some old habits that I've learned in other 2K games and really learn how to be patient on offense, set my defense and I actually trust my scout on my league which I've never done before and now I'm up and going to knock on wood 16 against the Wiz because I'm patient on offense and really learning the ins and outs of the game. One game is not the same from the next match up. This game isnt perfect but it's about as close to it as you can get on the sports gameLast edited by Grandview2015; 10-01-2015, 09:10 AM.Comment

You also need to understand your personal because not all players are the same and there are certain times I look on the floor and don't have any scoringComment

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
16FT.... Damn... But the head back during layups was awesome! But liek you said... annoying lol
Yea I've notice that my last 2-3 games have been blowouts to start the game. And then the CPU mounts a come back on me. And then I control things. And then get back up by a few. And then they close the lead in the 4. But I'll keep playing to see my results. I might need to go up one level.
It's not that it's hard to hurt the ICE tactic. It's the fact that the Bulls consistently forced me into the corner. But destroying it is another story. I've been playing with the Clippers and the Grizzles (Maybe like twice each). But I usually throw a alley oop or pocket bounce pass inbetween the defenders.
Ok.... So last night playing with the Grizzles.... And I'm not sure... If I saw this right. I didn't go back to look. But I swear I saw Tony Allen running back on defense after making a steal and dunk. With his finger in the air mouthing "First team defense!" I might have been dreaming I think.Hands Down....Man Down - 2k9 memories

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
Yeah, JF, I agree with your assement, this is what is happening in my games. It's not a glaring issue, but something that happens. It can come from a missed FG or after a basket, it just seems like the AI players are brain dead for a few seconds.Comment

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here
I won't go up a level because in a weird way I feel like there's realism and on pro using arms slider set from last year. The NBA is a game of runs so I'm not worried about the computer making a run if it feels realistic. No matter what level you play on. It's All about adjustmentsComment
I feel like I need to learn to play the game all over again, which is a good thing, seeing as though the AI in 2K15 was getting a bit dull.
