2k has said that they've enhanced the passing. What exactly that means we have yet to fully see. As said before: the devil is in the details. Making new animations for "flashy" passes that work with the same efficiency as every other is not exactly "improving" passing in a significant way. We'll see eventually what they actually have improved.

They have said over the years that there are basic hard core issues with their passing system; perhaps this equation will change with increased nextgen capabilities.

Never-the-less, there are still things that can be done to help right now: For example, the indicator telling us who is receiving the pass can be enhanced. Perhaps the yellow circle that is used in play-calling can be used to better highlight the intended receiver. Or make it a bright red circle instead of a black/grey circle that blends in with many arena floors...

As I said in the quote above you just need to make it sufficient for most people - not perfect for everyone.

The biggest problem with that aspect of passing is that there are just FAR too many different ways and reasons people pass the ball. It because mind reading because no particular solution is that much better than the next. It's not about CPU power. It's about finding a balance. But there are passing issues that go beyond getting the guy you meant to pass to - picking the pass that looks right for the situation. That isn't easy either.

I think they forgot to put this on the list.
Sim to any part of the game and play.

Every other sports game has it, why does 2k not have this in?

So Creating a Legend isn't coming back? I didn't see it on the list....

can we finally draw contact when ballhandlers are standing directly under the rim??? This is a 2k13 standing dunk cheesers best friend and most used tactic

Why that bot quoted me?

Hahaha.

Disappointed to see that there is no emphasis on improving association mode.
