Re: NBA 2K17 Impressions Thread

im a mycareer player and i can't play this game. i just don't see the point. theres nothing to do in mycareer, they removed all of the dribbling moves and made shooting awful. so sad and disappointed. going to play nba 2k16.

Re: NBA 2K17 Impressions Thread

I dont know if its just me but the gameplay in myteam is terrible.

Im only in the bronze tier so idk if maybe that has something to do with it? Like is the difficulty set on rookie or something because it seems like every shot my opponent takes he makes. 3 pointers seem to be automatic every time even with some centers! And the defense is non existent even when i manually set my defensive settings.

Theres 0 strategy involved its basically who can make the most shots. Can someone please tell me if they are experiencing this horrible gameplay in myteam as well??

I had an easy go of it before the Nets, where Scola made 3/3 of threes from Thompson distances, and then the Jazz, where no matter what settings I made in the coach menu Hayward was left wide open inside and outside for 12-30 foot jumpers that he kept on draining. I found the first couple teams remarkably easy, but I lost once to the Nets before beating them in overtime and I'm really not sure I can beat the Nuggets with my current team unless the major defensive lapses that led to a 20 point loss were an enigma.

I'd like to focus on domination since I waited until last month to do conquer missions for Diamond Dynasty and they turned out to be super valuable but Domination seems really skewed in comparison.

Re: NBA 2K17 Impressions Thread

great game, im very impressed overall...it might be the best sports game ever made

the only two issues that i have so far are 1. the twig arms on some of the skinny players and 2. sometimes being matched up against the same team im using on playnow online

What archtype did you pick and position? Also did you take Spalding or Nike endorsements?

Re: NBA 2K17 Impressions Thread

Love the game so far, but needing an online save for leagues with more than 3 re-branded teams as already costed me. Lost connection in the last minute of a great game.

I won't be doing more than 3 for sure now. It may not be 2k's end for that to be necessary, but their servers just aren't reliable enough.

Edit: Wait a second. I may have found a work around. It appears that you can download as many teams as you want and not have it turn into an online save. It's just if you edit teams within the league is how it looks.

i chose shot creator as a point guard. i took the nike endorsement, haven't seen the option to choose spalding endorsement yet. thats another thing i chose the nike endorsement but when do i get to use their shoes/get vc for it? everything is so confusing now.

Re: NBA 2K17 Impressions Thread

In the player editing menu (and maybe all menus?), going from screen to screen is much slower now. In the past, it was snappy fast. Now any time you switch screens there's a 2-3 second delay where it now has to load.

Very disappointing for people who edit players all the time.

One more thing that was made worse this year.

Re: NBA 2K17 Impressions Thread

Starting to see the issue where the Center gets lost and allows for
an easy basket in the paint. Hopefully they can patch this.

transition d is bad out of the box, cpu teammates leaving shooters wide open the corners-
also randomly my teammates wander out of bounds, or randomly doubleteam - double team is set to manual and i have good position on defense with the player i am controlling

[QUOTE=Vni;2048439688

My only issue would be the plays, players seem to take longer to get in position and plays development isn't as fluid as last year. Path finding has taken a step back in my opinion. Maybe that's because they improved collisions and player interactions but haven't improved path finding enough so that's why.[/QUOTE]

Couldn't have explained it any better myself

Re: NBA 2K17 Impressions Thread

I'm only into my first game, but I really like the lighting this year. It's not perfect, but definitely a step up from last year.

Everything seems much more smooth as well.

Like I said, I'm just into my first game, but as of now I'm liking what I'm seeing. (minus body models and unis and skin tones being off, of course!)

Hopefully the 2k art team are in these threads and can fix the issue from what I see a lot of it can be fixed or nerfed with the steph curry model from 2k16
