Personal preference here....but I wish the icons on icon passing wee larger.

On the tier system....what does that have to do with who people pick? You can't restrict that regardless...

For anyone having issues gettjng guys open I'd suggest the "space the floor" action....this has provided me with a lot more open looks....it cuts down on motion but there are still some actions and your team maintains space no matter where you pass...

Left on direction pad, RB, select 'space the floor' from the action menu..

From abuC's post: "There's no penalty for picking a Tier 1 team and losing, it still counts as 1, it should honestly be 2 losses just like it's 2 wins for the Tier 3 team. I don't want to have to use Tier 1 teams all the damn time it takes the fun out of the game."

I assumed there was a penalty...there definitely should be...

I'm complete opposite. If anything, I want any on-court graphics to be smaller. The less stuff cluttering the court, the better, as far as realism goes. Even the circle under the guy you're controlling. I wish I could turn that off.

I'd agree with the latter, and that actually used to be an option in NBA 2K5 and 2K6 I believe. Tough to figure things out on defense though unless you're like me and always control the PG. But you're right, the more options and less clutter the better. Hell, the highlight cursors are already not helping me for passing as is... might as well give us that option.

Made a few tweak to a few sliders on All-Star and now I am in seventh heaven. I'm still losing most of the time as the Lakers, but the way the games play out is so nice now. Got to make a couple more adjustments to get the CPU to turn those six or seven long 2's a game into 3's.

Only a few things need to be tuned up on the development side, and I'm sure that they know what those things are.

Speaking of play now online from a few posts back, does anybody know if you lose your rank if, like Fifa online, you don't win enough games in the specified time to rank up?

Re: NBA 2K16 Available Today, Post Your Impressions Here

Last night I tried PlayNow Online, and first 2 games, my team and the opposite one are in the same jersey color! So, the guys exited game, as I didn't wanted to, so I got 2 W's. I started the 3rd game, and - voila! Again the same jersey color! :/ but we played somehow, til the last minute of the game where I was in 20+ lead, and the opponent pressed pause, he rage-quited or something I guess, but the game gave ME a loss! Me! How? Why?! I was in the lead whole time and didn't even pressed pause once. Screw that ish.

I just learned about this viewing Czars thread,i used motion for the first time and couldnt believe how many layups i got playing online against zone defenses,it makes a huge difference.Next time im gonna try "space the floor" to see how i like it.

Best 2k to date, i love it. Playing with the cavs on superstar sim with no defensive or boxout assit. Playing my league right now im winning 6-0 beating the computer by 10 to 20 easily.

Yeah man there's no penalty and ontop of that almost all the Tier 1 guys I've played against play off the ball, and you have wonky things happen to you when using Tier 2/3 teams like this

I'm already playing at a razors edge and can't afford to blow back to back dunks like that, all while my opponent plays off the ball all game and mashes on the sprint button because there doesn't seem to be any sort of fatigue or shot fatigue.

I cannot stress enough how much I hate the Tier system, it's not fun in anyway shape or form to pick the Pistons and get matches up with the Cavs or Warriors. I've won some Tier 3 vs Tier 1 games, but if you play even a semi competent person you're going to get rolled over.

I fail to see where that's 2K's fault. You hate the Tier system... because your fellow online players are choosing better teams to play with? I'm just not getting that complaint; they at least tried to do something to get people to use different teams. Perhaps the system needs to be tweaked to encourage/give more incentive to playing with lower Tier teams, but I don't see how it should be hated on. I get tired of seeing online gamers blame the game more than the people they're playing against.
