Don't Forget How Many Time-outs You Have Left in NBA 2K15, You Can Get a Tech

[Steve_OS]

Calling a time-out in NBA 2K15 when you don't have any left, will result in a technical foul, according to LD2K. While it has been in the game before, it wasn't in last year. Don't be this guy.

So Chris Webber was playing?

Now get him on the broadcast team.

Still waiting for the day when we can argue foul calls/no-calls and get realistic techs and flagrants all around, instead of a few random ones from swearing at Kinect (or calling a time-out and having it register as a bad word).

Re: NBA 2K15 Technical Foul Detail

Could this mean that players like DMC, Kobe and KD would get the most techs or just another BS tech feature for Kinect?

I remember in the 90s, there was a prominent basketball game where you could get a technical foul called against you for calling a timeout when you had none remaining.

A small change for something very real that makes a big difference.

I would definitely love that. You talking about taking realism to the next level. Imagine if they had different referees with different personalities. They could have a veteran official likely to cave in to the pressure and start showing more leeway to the person that did the arguing. Or a veteran official that is quick to call technicals or who is upset at being challenged and starts calling the game even tighter against who was arguing. Tie that in with individual player personalities and that could be sick.

MLB The Show has something like that where there are different umps each game and all of them call things different, especially the behind the plate ump. Each game the strike zone is different.

This is something I've always wanted to see. Not just from a personality standpoint but also with how they call a game; whether quick with the whistle, or allowing guys to play through contact. Ref tendencies/profiles could moderate that.

There should have been no more posts after this one. Classic.

Re: NBA 2K15 Technical Foul Detail

They should make a meter. The meter indicates the calls in your favor. You could increase/decrease it by arguing. But doing this to much could result in a technical or ejection or even increasing the calls against you for the other team.

Just a wild idea

Hasn't that been in the game for years?

I believe in years past, if one were out of time-outs, pressing the time-out button would simply yield no response.

I've always gotten a tech in 2k games as I recall
