Yes, and this is true of physical copies as well.

Maybe I'm getting it mixed up with post-game highlights and the Player Of The Game stuff. Sorry.

My point to the post is defense is back in 2k..and players will still try to find cheese to exploit in any style they choose to play. all I'm saying is set up defensive schemes and players patterns.

Into a mind of a gamer.

Does the shot clock reset after a blocked shot like it did in 2k15?

I still don't understand the connection. Why does the ps4 recording stuff force the game to glitch? :/

1. Playing sim isn't about running plays. It's about simulating real life basketball. You wouldn't run a play for Tiago Splitter or whatever.

2. Fast breaks and zig zag are not the same thing.

3. If you find an exploit that isn't realistic and is overpowered and you choose to use that exploit repeatedly. You are a cheeser.

It's all about coding. They have to find a workaround to the PS4's recording. Also remember that something that seems minor can cause large issues. Hell, a few lines of bad code can break a game entirely.

What your saying to me is all playing style preference. some know how to play your style of playing, and some don't know how to play at all, so they find their own style of comfort. that's why if you play online, be prepared to adjust to any type of playing style or you find online leagues and friends that fits your style.

But you're missing the whole point here... the game is not out yet but from the videos that I have seen, playing defense in 2k16 seems legit to me. jumpers will not be money like 2k15, and I truly believe that any EXPLOITING can be handle with the sticks and defensive schemes.

And why can't I pick n roll with Tiago Splitter?
