Re: Worst rage moment this game caused?
I gotta few things to name that piss me off on a daily/weekly basis
First of all i find very annoying that 2K presents this game to users as 'most realistic & superior basketball game on market' where in reality 2k15 is most polished game graphics wise, gameplay wise game is mediocre at least, wouldn't call it realistic or sim game at all, i'd rather describe this game as basketball game with nice details and graphics that goes in package with broken and mediocre gameplay mechanics, heavily animation driven.
Yesterday i was playing against my friend offline head to head, random teams i got GSW and he got CHA, at one moment during 3rd quarter he was running the fastbreak with M.Williams and he was about to lob the alley oop to Noah Vonleh and I was controlling Harrison Barnes on defense i pressed square button to deflect the alley oop attempt and guess what ?! my player (Barnes) jumped so dammmmnnnn unrealistically high that i immediately paused the game, went to instant replay just to see how bad it is, to my surprise Barnes jumped so high that his right hand was almost at top of the backboard, needless to say i deflected the ball but it was jump outta this world i guess his vertical at that very moment was maybe 60-65 inches (mike wang what the heck dude, this ain't space jam bruh)
Another thing that annoys the hell outta me is a bunch of unrealistic players, i always use these 2k official rosters with slightly edited sliders and we always play offline head to head but the thing is every team that got one 'nba proven dunker & posterizer' (westbrook, durant, harrison barnes, blake griffin etc etc) every game where one of those players actually plays we got like 4-5 poster dunks per game..why?!?! because those players are proven NBA dunkers, the hell with that Harrison Barnes posterized Nikola Pekovic last season i could name his poster dunks since he joined NBA but somehow 2K sees him as Shawn Kemp so he's scripted or whatever you call that so he can dunk on someone every single game when in fastbreak situation (SUCKSSSSS big time)
Last thing i'm gonna mention on this post is alley oop defense aka stopping alley oops. Few days ago i found myself in situation where 3 of my players were in the paint area and opponent was running the fastbreak with 2 players (Lowry & DeRozan) i was Philly, so Lowry dribbles the ball down the court sprinting , DeRozan was cutting on the other side and i had in the paint Noel, Covington & Mbah a Moute he tossed alley oop for DeRozan i jumped with Noel to swat the ball and somehow (only possible in 2k universe i guess) the ball was flying among 6 arms and finished in the DeRozan hand for nasty alley oop ! why ??? probably because 2k sees DeRozan as unstoppable force when it comes to putting the ball through the rim.
I swear to God i won't be buying this sh*t anymore this game is more scripted than call of duty singleplayer when 10 NPC soldiers wait for you to cross invisible line so they can move forward to the field that was empty just to find out that when your soldier steps on that battlefield it's gonna crawl with enemy soldiers.
I was cool with that 10-15 years ago but nowadays hell nah, i'm supposed to play the basketball game where outcome was set even before game started and i'm not stupid to see that because i'm in basketball for a long time as a player, momentum is always even in real basketball but not that much as 2K highlights it, the gamebreaking point was so obvious in one of the games i played where my opponent had 14 team fouls in 1st & 2nd quarter and during the 3rd quarter they had 1 team foul for entire quarter, my players were literally tossed to the ground but without fouls not to mention flagrants, that's the moment when i had enough of the bullsh*t scripted animations and such...c'mon 2k apparently when i drive to the rim with Reggie Jackson into 3 defenders each bumping my player just so i could get hit by Brook Lopez in the air, the outcome = reggie jackson falls on his back from pretty high altitude ... game continues just normally no matter my player was lying on the ground while opponents run the fastbreak without the freaking foul (Blocking foul slider was on 90 just to mention) nba 2k15 = self proclaimed best bball game out there, broken as hell but packed into nice appearance with flashy graphics so the next time you see gordon hayward hair swingin' we should appreciate that because somewhere in the world 2k devs thinks that simulation is about hair swingin' and armpits..lmfao peacee
I CAN'T HELP MYSELF, I KEEP PLAYING THIS SH*T BECAUSE I LOVE GAME OF BASKETBALL, I'M AVID FAN OF THE GAME BUT 2K NEED SOME COMPETITION OTHERWISE I'M DESTINED EVERY YEAR TO BREAK SOME TV'S, CONSOLES AND SUCH, I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH 2K I JUST HAVE PROBLEM WITH MARKETING, IF THEY PUT IT LIKE THIS NBA 2K15 - CASUAL AND ARCADE BASKETBALL EXPERIENCE I WOULDN'T EXPECT MUCH AND I WOULD PROLLY AVOID THE GAME BUT THEY ADVERTISE THE GAME AS SOMETHING SO FREAKIN' SPECIAL LIKE IT'S OUTTA THIS WORLD, MOST REALISTIC BASKETBALL SIMULATION BY IGN, BY GAMESTOP, BY KOTAKU BLA BLA BLA AND SINCE I'M DIE HARD BASKETBALL FAN I FALL FOR THESE LINES IMAGING THAT I'M BUYING SOMETHING THAT I WILL ENJOY WHOLE YEAR IT DOESNT MATTER IF I LOSE EVERY GAME BY 10 POINTS, THE ONLY THING I CAN'T STAND ARE UNREALISTIC AND ARCADISH THINGS PACKED INTO SO CALLED SIMULATION BUNDLE, BEST BASKETBALL SIMULATION MY A** !
