Goran Dragic outside of layups? I can't hit **** with him lol

I have yet to a jumper with him on user timing or real fg%.

I'm hoping this next patch fixes defensive rotations/help the helper, charges/off ball fouls and lack of the A.I shooting threes.

About my only gripes with the game so far.

On the flip side, I can go off with Gerald Green in the game, especially from the perimeter.

Tell me about it, I was making the same shots I was taking with Dragic using freaking Chalmers.

I hit 3 3's with Dragic last time played with the Heat, I absolutely could not believe it, lol

Don't know what it is about him man....it's not even like he has a crazy release (going by the meter)

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

I have been playing the Cavaliers vs Knicks (me) for 30 straight games and now not once have I beat the Cavaliers!.. It's always the same scenario I'll keep it close for maybe the first quarter or even a half by six and seven points but then the third quarter rolls around and all the sudden there are three just start falling. They're fast break and all the time off of my misses and my man cannot get back fast enough. Deli is all of a sudden Steph Curry and hitting open 3 pointers when in real life that's not his game. And LeBron will be set up on the post and I know he's going to shoot it and I will double team him and he will do a turn around fade away jump shot and hit it with ease. Seriously this is all game besides when he miss baskets so that way it will keep it interesting but ultimately when it decides it wants to win it will take over not only its own team but yours as well. The defensive rotation is the worst I've seen in a 2k game where are the computer will intensely for your teammate away from a shooter to allow him to shoot an easy basket . Very disappointed

I beat the Cav's with the Knicks in a Play Now game when they first played last week on SS\Sim

For one, you're playing as one of the worst teams in the game, vs. one of the best teams in the game...it's going to be an uphill battle.

Its nowhere near impossible. What level are you on? Do you make any defensive adjustments? How do you run your offense?

If the games are going the same way every time then you may need to switch something up.

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

I am playing on all star. 8 out of 10 times coming down the floor I am setting up plays for specific players. But my issue is really not scoring is the matter that once I get something going the computer starts to pull some nonsense such as letting my computer control teammate pull away from a wide open jump shooter so that way he can shoot and make a shot when he has no business going away from them. I could understand if he was trying to help a teammate who's gotten beat but it's not the case my teammate will be on the opposite side and for whatever reason he will drop down under the basket so that way LeBron can swing the ball to the opposite side for love to have an easy catch and shoot. I've tried all sorts of types of adjustments switching up from man to zone pressuring the perimeter to protecting the paint

I wish we had the ability to turn off zoom in the paint on the generic broadcast camera. We use to have this option but its just n/a and forces zoom to be on.

So type of adjustments did you make because it seems like no matter what adjustments I make they still seem to go on a certain runs

Your assessments are 100% accurate. I think somehow this too correlates to the basketball rubberbanding (instead of being a turnover it snaps back like a yoyo into the dribbler's hand) at times when being pushed on the fastbreak.

These glitches I believe are made purposely to make the game more challenging. Instead its cheesier than cheetos.


The most frustrating thing about playing team defense is 1. My computer controlled defender will aimlessly leave his man when he should be in Tight or Deny.

The other is also when I get a 10 point lead or so, my center or bigman will run down the court on D and stand out of bounds under the basket and just let the other center get an uncontested layup or dunk. If you're quick you can change to him and hopefully foul or contest ... If lucky.

The last glitch is when you score and ate trying to run back on D. The PG is the last defender waiting for everyone to get back on D.. But as he runs up to get up on his man, the computer laser beams a pass to an unguarded big man for a layup before the other bigman can get back.

There's an algorithm that makes the computer cheat on HALL OF FAME. I play 12min quarters with the intent of keeping opponents under 100pts. Virtually impossible with these cheese modes by 2k.

Thank you... I knew I wasn't losing my mind..

Well every game won't be a wall to wall victory.....there will likely be a run here or there.....you just have to handle them by slowing the game down and calling timeouts...especially if your going to play vs. one of the best teams in the league.

I'll be 100% honest with you...I have my defensive settings on auto since I've been winning without making many changes as of late. I'll go more on depth later.

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

Ok.. I think I'm officially done with 2k16.. It makes no sense that I've played the same two teams for about 30 games and pretty much came with the same results after making numerous adjustments knowing exactly how each player plays knowing all the controls and still the computer seems to just cheese its way two wins.. It's just not worth the frustration anymore too many games out there to enjoy hopefully a patch for resolve some of these issues that a lot of US players are complaining about. Star Wars is coming out next week and I'm playing Tomb Raider right now anyways

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

I appreciate that 24th.. It's just frustrating watching something unfold right in front of you and there's nothing you can do about it don't get me wrong I know it's a game but still supposed to be fun too lol I guess that these things happening on Hall of Fame level
