    NBA 2K16's Key to Success


    NBA 2K16
    will be the third basketball title released by 2K Sports on this generation of consoles. The developers will be looking to improve and stabilize this series, and there is no doubt that the hype for NBA 2K16 is very high. With news continuing to release about new modes, improved gameplay, and enhanced visuals, 2K is continuing to boost the hype as we move towards a late-September release. That being said, let's take a look at what I think are the five keys that will ensure NBA 2K16 is a success this season.

    presentation need improved more better especially pregame warm-up along star player showing season stats while commentary talking about that player's performance during season and halftime report need improve better too.. My GM should add weekly wrap up show like NFL 2k5

      Within gameplay the mention of canned animations would've been nice

        I play mostly MY LEAGUE and MY CAREER.. I wish that Spike Lee is not just marketing stunt and hope he will really do something with MY CAREER story. And, IMO, MY LEAGUE and online ML should be separate modes. Also, considering gameplay, everything can be tuned by sliders except one unbelievably bad thing in 2K15 . foul detection. That thing ruined MY LEAGUE fun. Too many times my player ends pushed in crowd or threw down with judo moves with no faouls at all. But just standing with hands up, not even moving is too often foul for CPU teams. Absolutely most annoying thing in 2K15 I wish they will fix...or make sliders work for this thing...

          Presentation is never going to be where we all want it to be at in a sports' game I'm afraid. People will always compare it to real life, and a game is never going to compete with that in the end. I think 2k b-ball does a pretty fine job with presentation, but as you mentions they can tweak/improve it, as any game can. I would like a weekly wrap up show myself...in MyLeague as well of course. I know The Show has daily wrap up shows, which I find impressive...generic as they may be. I like those options to be in a game if I want them, although I fully admit I rarely listened to them.

            yeah Visual Concept did it with NFL 2k5 for weekly wrap up show during halftime report and post game and showing playoff picture in weekly wrap up show. i can't believe that they can't do it for NBA 2k

              It's not that it won't live up to our expectations by comparing it to real life, it's that we've seen it before in previous games made over a decade ago. The fact that we still don't have it back in over 2 console generations is the problem.

                Other than not having a wrap up show, I'm not sure what that one game everyone did that 2k does not do at present. I mean 2k hoops had some wrap up shows (each week or month?) and the NCAA Tourney selection show...so yeah it is possible. With Ernie and Shaq they have some ground work for this type of thing.

                    Im not a huge graphics head so all i really want presentation wise is an NBA ticker, NBA tv presentation, ABC presentation and TNT. TNT for eastern playoff games coverage, ABC for western playoff games coverage and NBA tv/TNT for regular season games this is huge and far more important in my eyses than an espn license. Hopefully 2k16 adds atleast two.

                      This is a question for LD2K and whack *** Ronnie 2K, how do you not fix the Demi God issue? This glitch has devalued your game big time its really not worth playing anymore and for the fact that you guys have nothing to fix it really shows the community that you dont care about the game just remember if the NBA 2k series becomes irrelevant so do you two lame asses. I been playing 2K since the Iverson days and as a true fan I am saddened to see you guys do **** all with the game as the ambassadors once you release the title

                          And FYI in REAL BASKETBALL GAMES no one shoots the ball 5 times in a row without some sort of penalty The Pro Am better have some sort of penalty for people that want to hog and shoot 40 times in a single game you guys need to take this stuff serious it going to cause people to have bad experiences and play other titles not sure who makes the decisions at 2k but I really hope one of ya'll read this **** cause clearly Ronnie and LD are just 2K puppets

                            I'm almost 100% positive they mentioned they are working on ways to prevent the Demigod problem in the twitch stream the other day.

                              Most refer to NFL 2k5 as the holy grail when it comes to presentation, and tbh it deserves it. Weekly recaps(in studio w/ highlights), score ticker, halftime show (w/ highlights), postgame interviews, etc. That game was made in 2004 on PS2 and Xbox yet it still is the bar that really no sports game has come close to outside of bits and pieces of it. Regarding Ernie and Shaq, I actually mentioned last year the formula for a legit halftime/weekly recap show was there, whether they try to do it is another story.
