Another thing, this is NBA2K, not park2k or rec 2k...

Half these dudes don't know anything about the league nor do they care and that's the saddest part about all of this

Online gaming has been the worst part of this generation of games and has ruined the systems in more than one way.

I dont know that online gaming is the issue, since I have always played online with real NBA teams since the dreamcast days. However, I agree that the non basketball crowd has seeped over into NBA2k, and you get people claiming that the Black Eyed Peas are better then Outkast.

The "online" 2k community is void of basketball fans and this is what you get.

That is true, but I meant on the user side, since some people on Twitter are complaining about not being able to make shots, which clearly isn't an issue.

Yeah I think there are some funky things going on. FT shooting is too easy for both. Cpu outside shooting too weak. Maybe they look at some under the good numbers for a tweak. But I’m only speaking for offline games.

Just played the Cavs and lost with the Pistons. One annoyance reared it’s head for me and that was excessive cpu alley oops. I can barely see it play out on side cam and Nantz had 4 or 5. Not much I can do to stop that. (Heads to sliders and reduces cpu oop tendency and success).

Dang, I was hoping the AI would be that aggressive attacking a mismatch. Not a huge deal, though.

The AI defintely takes advantage of mismatches on offense especially in the post. And the different body types and strength is easily noticeable. Big guys will destroy a smaller defender down low and the AI will even call a quick post to get the ball to them in those situations.

Czar said Dame would give you that work.

He also said he's playing on All-Star because it's so tough even for him.

Superstar plays nicely too...really nice!

FT shooting is just right

Most games are around 80 percent and guy who are good at the line (Lonzo) struggle

I am really digging all the new contextual passing animations they have in the game now. Every time I play I am seeing new animations.

I played a game with the Blazers and Lillard pulled off a tap pass that transitioned seamlessly from a dribble to a tap pass to CJ backdooring on the baseline...BEAUTIFUL!

Anthony Davis blocking shots is pretty and disrespectful at the same time. It’s so fun.

AI is constantly taking advantages of mismatches. Hell D'Antoni drew up this beautiful play v. Me where Harden got a wideopen three. I was like wtf, is this real life or 2k? My wife is like, you rarely play the game, you just simulation and create draft classes. I don't tell her because the game play is not realistic. It's cheese central. She seen me playing the actual game till past midnight

There is a problem with shooting - the cpu outside game is too weak on default. User isn’t the issue imo. The cpu shot poorly from deep in your game and I was seeing that all the time. Cpu mid range and 3 pt should be 60+ on all-star for offline or they shoot too poorly imo. Maybe not as high if they release better on higher difficulties.

Their shooting percentages are on per with real life in my game. Mines is too for the most part considering the quality of shooters I load up with

Can anyone tell me how to remove the flashing numbers under players in play now? I turn every overlay off for immersion but can’t see anywhere to turn that crap off? Surely you aren’t forced to have that come up. It’s bad enough I’m forced to see the green release colour come up under the player which never used to happen

Lowered Shot Distribution slider below 50

It gives shots to non stars in games which seems great until you look at FG percentages haha. Next game I will crank to 75 to see if it changes. Last Game I did have above 55 and Harden, Westbrook, Gordon took 75 percent of the shots

Now below 50

Ball is spreading around more

Also, Possessions per game lower will lead to a lot of shots being taken at the buzzer

Low amount of layups and close shots

Up mid range and 3’s. CPU will pass up layups to kick for 3. Just saying

Love the offline 5 vs 5 gameplay, the tempo is perfect and I can finally safely sag off guys who are not good from the three point line. Superstar difficulty is awesome.

But I have noticed that some teams have some weird tendencies. For example I have played against the Mavericks twice and both times Luka Doncic was their main man, like he should be. But... Porzingis is completely invisible and doesn't even get the ball. Boban Marjanovic was a monster, pulling down 15 and 18 rebounds respectively and running tirelessly back and forth, being the number two scoring option on the team.

Same goes for several other teams. Paul George is being ignored on the Clippers, John Collins on Hawks... The CPU just doesn't seem to use some players I would expect them to and it has nothing to do with my defense. Has anyone else noticed this?

Go to Sim Sliders and up shot percentages in ML. I haven’t up too much because I don’t want CPU going crazy
