    Re: What are the top 5-10 things you are hoping/looking are improved/changed this yea

    I'm back for more.

    1. Better game management by the computer. Was recenlty playing game 7 of the NBA finals against the Cavs. Computer inexplicably sat Lebron from the majority of OT. Also, coaches are slow to make otherwise obvious adjustments. I.e. Lebron is straight dominating his matchup, switch it up or double. Especially troublesome in mycareer.

    2. In mycareer, when signing a new contract, they only tell us the VC per game. Additional information would be useful. Convert the VC per game into a real dollar amount. What's a max contract?

    3. Related to above, and very relevant in the current times. When signing a new contract, I need more information on what else is happening in free agency. Update me on developments between negotiation rounds. It'd be useful to my free agency decision to know that Lebron left Cleveland.

    4. More informaton on my teammates in pro-am. In walk-on, they tell you the height/weight/build of your direct matchup, but nothing on the other 4 or your teammates. Leaving huge gaps in information. Line us up like you do and the park, and make 2K cards viewable from box score, at the least.

    5. It'd be useful if they posted stats for each archetype; i.e. what are the most popular builds, which has the best win percentage. I know this could be a double edged sword, but could be useful for balancing. I personally like to try to win with less popular builds. Also, if 50% of the user base is running with PGs, i'd try a different build.

    6. No workout gym. Useless, time wasting mechanic (not the practice gym, but the one you go to boost energy, but half of the exercises are impossible).

    7. Make playing in different cities feel different. Not sure how best to explain this one, or how to pull it off, but this is something that i've always wanted more out of sports games. When I have to on the road to play in NY, i want to be more immersed. Feel like i'm going into someone else's city. Also, since we have the neighborhood, why does it stay the same all year round? If my player is on the Bucks, shouldn't there be snow on the ground in January?

      I just ask for more Realistic Basketball, specially in the Pro-AM and NBA games modes.

      I have nothing against those who prefer arcade results, but please, why not create two different environments or game modes, Pro-Am should simulate basketball, and for those more casual they could be in the park, but we should't see over and over again 60% on 3pts shoots or unstoppable animations when driving, specially if people is trying to play defense...

      I would like to play a competitive mode where defense can be felt, where the paint is a respectable place and every basket cost you blood, I just want more sim basketball.

        I just wished pro am had more life to it. I love how EA has the licenses to different parks and arenas .

        2k could at least give us different venues even if they aren’t official.

        I’m also tired of looking at the black and gold jersey for like the 3rd year in a row.

          Played a little 2K17 tonight, the OJ mechanic with Justice reminded me of an idea/want from a couple months ago.

          Let us control two players. Life long friends/brothers get drafted in the league together. You get to choose both player's builds and invest VC in them. Can switch between them in game (like OJ). Could use either in the park and pro am.

          Tremendous storyline potential and great for people like me who always have multiple builds.

            Im hoping for less sliding, better foot planting/grip on the court and weight to the players. And better collision and physics in the paint, im a rebounder, shot blocker, score strictly inside the paint type player, and im just gonna throw this out there and i know i might rattle a few guys cages on here, but the post and paint play in 2k18 was absolutely terrible.

              1. Speed Differential (especially between bigs) a max height pure stretch shouldn't be chasedown blocking anyone
              2. Moving screens called, currently only called off ball
              3. Offensive 3 seconds calls (Mike Wang tweeted this was fixed)
              4. Steal spamming interupting dunk animations
              5. Bring down block ratings for MyPlayers without defending in them, a 6'4 Pure Sharp shouldn't have a 60 Block rating
              6. Split between ball control and Speed with ball, Slashers have higher straighline speed but can't dribble in traffic
              7. Ability to choose to attempt a tip rebound
              8. Remove the double handed standing layup animation that always gets blocked, replace with a push floater
              9. Tie animation packages to height as well as ratings and not position i.e a 6'6 slasher should be able to get Vince Carter's dunk package whether they are PG/SG/SF/PF. Tie badges to height instead of position i.e 5'7-6'9 Pure Slasher gets HOF Acrobat, 6'10-7'0 gets Gold, 7"1+ gets Silver
              10. Private ProAm Matchmaking

                I don't want to see these 7"3 C max weights doing the quick flashy dunks windmills, tomahawks neither


                They need their own dunk packages with slower animations
