          - The main problem for me with NBA 2K games is always the responsiveness of the controls. And although they are still not perfect I think this year its pretty good overall.

          - The dribbling feels great - although I have a tough time getting past any defender.

          - The AI is very good, offensive and defensive wise. The spacing is the best ive seen in a 2K game.

          - The shooting (which I didnt like for years) is really smooth and fun again. There are still some shots who are clunky and for me personally there should be a little more hangtime in the air - but they are fun again.

          - And I really like the field goal percentages. I really feel like I am the one in control of my success(thats overall my feeling of the game). When I get an open look and I feel like I got a good release - its almost consistently going in (with the right type of player of course).

          - I am a gameplay guy and dont care about all the other stuff that much - so I wished I could skip cut scens / halftime show etc. more quickly.

          - i think there is a small glitch when you do a step back with the right stick and want to shoot immediatly - doesnt work for me

          Overall - cant wait to get home a play some more games
          You are really one of my favorite members of OS, not just for your early impressions almost every year (you were clutch with the gamescom feedback couple years ago), but because you never seem to get caught up in the hype and give honest impressions every time. Your word is gold with me.

          Do the players feel different when

            Unless I'm doing something wrong individual highlights arent available (ps4)
            Also, player of the game highlights work (12 mins) but they seem very messy.

              Hey guys,

              I have huge problems with the rotations of my players. I like to do it manually, especially while the time out.

              This year, the UI is kinda...weird but the players don't rotate at the end of the time-out, they do it at the next time that the clock is stopped o_o.

              Do you have these problems as well?

                    Oh and one weird thing: Simularion & Arcade Slider Sets are gone. Now you can choose sliders named after the difficulty levels. So when you choose rookie the shot success goes up etc. - I didnt understand it.

                      Sorry should I have edited a bit more.

                      My question was about how the feel of different players is? Like Kyrie vs Harden. Do the new controls allow you to feel their unique styles?

                        Yes they tell you specifically what goes up in the slider section as you go up in difficulty. The dev's said Superstar and HOF I believe the CPU is using the POE's the best instead of really just upping the ratings by crazy amounts.


                        So they are trying to give us realistic difficulty instead of too much artificial shenanigans!


                        Thanks for the impressions if DaWolf is impressed with the controls you know the improvements are legit

                          I think there is a noticable difference between kyrie and harden in the dribbling and overall feel. dribbling with kyrie is a mini game in itself - its really cool what you can do this year.

                            How is the Block Shots? i felt in the prelude it was difficult to block shots, or jumping up vertical the defenders still got all shots off.

                            Small sample size by me, maybe im just used to the old 2k's with alot of block shots lol. But im wodnering if i play with Whiteside will he be effective

                              The second my player that you create (Michael B. Jordan) do you get to select his position and height or is he a PG?

                                How is the custom play now online set up. Does it allow the user to check off what teams it does not want to search for in matchmaking. Can we search for all teams to play and exclude warriors and cavaliers from the search.
