Substitutions?

[rbillan]

Hey guys,

How do you make subs on the fly? Using that right stick to sub one guy out changes the whole lineup?

Press the D pad left once and then press which player you want to sub out with the direction of the R stick. It'll change to another page, this is when you pick a player to replace him. Repeat for other players.

I find this sub menu annoying...not convenience. Not only you have to press up or down and left and right, now it show another page or two and then you have to pick again with the up down left right. This is slowing down gaming, not helping. I don't know who think this is a good idea...but it's not.

Also, don't forget to hit the B/circle button to confirm your selection. The other pages are your default for defense, free throw, etc lineups when you want to do a complete lineup change.

i finally figured it out, duh...reading is fundamental. it was annoying at first but now subs are a quick flick/flick once you get use to the system you know your line up and each positions flick direction. in a month this new system will seem brilliant (I think) lol

For future references for anyone stumbling across this thread needing help with NBA2k16 substitutions on the fly.

We will use two buttons to do manual substitutions on the fly:
(A) Right analog stick
(B) R1 (or L1)

Press down on the D-pad brings up the 1st substitution screen (current lineup on the floor). The player to be substituted out will have his name up top on the 2nd substitution screen (available bench warmers or substitutes).

GOAL: First substitution picture below. We will substitute Curry. Push up on the right analog stick will select Curry to be substituted out ("UP" corresponds to Curry; if wanting to sub out Klay Thompson, push "DOWN" on the right analog stick; if wanting to sub out H.Barnes, push "LEFT" on the right analog stick; if wanting to sub D.Green, push "RIGHT" on the right analog stick; "CLICKING" the right analog stick (R3) will select Andrew Bogut to be substituted out).

This will automatically bring up a 2nd screen showing most of the available players you can replace Curry with. Press R1 or L1 to show the rest of the bench players you can replace Curry with. There is a maximum of two pages worth of available substitutes.

NOTE: Unfortunately, nothing will highlight. Curry's name will not change color. The only way to tell who is getting subbed out will be seeing the player's name positioned at the top in the 2nd screen ("Toggle Page" substitution screen)


Court (Players on the floor/court) vs. Toggle Page (available substitutes/bench warmers)
At the bottom of the substitution screen are the words "Court" and "Toggle Screen":
(A) "Court" is an indication that the existing substitution screen represents all 5 players currently on the basketball court.
(B) "Toggle Page" is an indication that the existing substitution screen represents the player that you would like to sub out and bench warmers that you would like to sub into the game. Hit R1 or L1 to bring up other available substitutes/bench warmers.
