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.

It has happen to me. I've guess both times it happen I thought it was my fault. But I haven't seen it since. And both times it happen to me. I had a big slow center on the court.

Just got run out on pro. Turned into a practice 2k game. New Orleans kicked my butt haha

Yeah, for some reason, Toronto gives me fits! Vucevich just kills me every time I play them, no matter who I'm using. I've beat them, but it's not easy.

This kind of thing happens to me at least 3 or 4 times a game.

What are Kobe and Clarkson, and to a certain extent Bass too, doing here? It's ridiculous.

So I've watched a the clip a few times. But it seems like the "get back on defense" logic might be a little messed up. So I can see what your talking about.

Ended up losing that game, but the wizards are better than the Celtics and you just have to learn The things that got you the lead are the things that are going to keep it. I felt that my adjustments were good, but there's was better in the end when my team got fatigued and their bench was a little better than mine. That is just realistic basketball

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

I honestly should've won that game. I didn't make one adjustment after I preset it and Beal went off for 34 and I should've made the proper adjustment when they cut the lead. But, that blowout game really taught me to break old 2K habits

The my MyCareer is great but there's a couple things I don't understand (Note: My player is 6'10 240 lbs)
1) my athleticism is all the way up but I don't understand why my speed is only a 75 and it fluctuates up and down between games why is that?
2) during free throws it sometime says my rating is a 90 but then sometimes the freethrow rating goes down to a 88. Again what is up with the fluctuations in this game.

are you doing practices?
because those boosts are temporary.
otherwise, i have no idea.

Your speed is determined by your height for your position and I think weight . The taller you are the slower.

Your rating fluctuates based off of hot/cold streaks , badges , fatigue, teammates' badges etc ..

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.

I might try this man...

Here's my biggest personal issue:

I hate how the 2K cam looks but it's better for game play
I love how the nosebleeds cam looks but I tend to play on the side near the camera...

I switched between the two like 30x last night in practice. I might just roll with 2k cam...

Or I might give your idea a try and see if it helps with moves.

I've been battling with this myself. I'm a broadcast cam convert since 2k12 so this has helped me a lot... I noticed my ball movement is a lot better on 2k cam this year though...especially with all the back cuts the Spurs have in their freelance.

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

Just a few quick things:

- Practice, practice, practice. Man has that made me enjoy the game more. I am beating some guys for easy buckets. I'm learning the plays and what my options are. I'm learning what my guys excel at and what they can't do. (i.e. Mudiay is a beast when you post up smaller PG's but can't shoot the J)

- The difference in bad/average/good/great is extremely noticeable. In practice I was the Nuggets vs Celtics. I'm running my plays and thinking the game is too easy (AS/Sim) and scoring at will. I go in-game and I try to run some plays for Gallinari and Wiggins is guarding him. LOL @ me. I'm trying to dribble around a set screen and Wiggins just cuts me off. I had no counter. I never saw that in practice.

A couple things I personally want:

#1 - The ability to set freelance outside of the game. Let me set it in my coach settings. If it's already there please let me know!

#2 - The ability to create a custom PB outside of MyLeague/MyGM. I love the run plays feature in the main menu. Scrimmage is cool and all...but I enjoy run plays better. Let me build a PB outside of a game mode. Plus, let's say you build a PB and you decide to restart after a patch: you have to re-create that PB.

#3 - Please give us an option for "traditional" sub method. I just don't enjoy the current format. I will probably get more used to it but in all honesty it takes too long in its current state.

I'm sitting here at work excited to go home and practice plays to improve my game and get a better feel for the squad.

It's sad how much this inner battle consumes me haha. I'm thinking about twitch'ing my games and chopping them up for highlights...and without a doubt a more broadcast view would be more visually appealing. But the game is difficult and I feel I'd be a fool for not taking the cam where I perform best at the game.

Always has to be something...

Amen on practice. Learning more and more. Had Gortat on Thomas switch and just laughed as I drove by. So much fun

Can't believe you guys still playing on broadcast lol. Making passes around the court and dribbling are things I need to do. It's sooo much easier on 2k cam.

What is your twitch account?
