NBA 2K15 Gameplay Video - Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

[Gramps91]

Presentation looks pretty good. Gameplay looks kind of the same but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

It's weird to me that I'll look at the game play and see a couple of sketchy things but then I'll read the comments and there's so much more pointed out to me than I would have ever noticed myself. I wish I had the attention to detail a lot of you do.

There were a few grating things about 2K14 but I never had the same problems a lot of people did with the game play when it comes to playing the CPU. My issue was always online with MyTeam where you could never simulate basketball unless you were playing with a friend. In terms of improvements, that's my interest this year seeing what improvements to me. In terms of this video, I like what I saw for the most part. I like the 2K game play outside of some stuff so it never bothers me if it feels the same.

can't judge much from this vid - hard to tell much from a short video being played by someone who isn't really running an offense. can we please get a long video (maybe a full game or an entire half) being played by someone within 2k (maybe Czar) who really knows the game - then we could really see what this game has to offer.

Last year, folks were blown away by the new next gen visuals, this year folks are disappointed because we don't have the same 'feeling' about those visuals as we did last year; It's the law of diminishing marginal utility.

Basketball is basketball, the court is the court, players are players, the crowd is the crowd, etc. When people expect to see something that looks COMPLETELY new from year to year, what are they expecting? It might be too much to expect new player models(how many different ways can they look anyway), a totally new animation system every year in a one year production cycle whilst making gameplay, mode, rating improvements, new features, audio, presentation, etc. etc.

That said, I personally see/have seen in other vids many subtle differences that I can imagine will have this game 'feeling' completely new. 2K vets should know to reserve judgement until playing the game; every year folks say the game looks the same, but most years it plays completely different and for the better.

Well said...the only time that I've felt that "sameness" was 2k10...to me this is the second going for next gen and I'm excited that Da_Czar, OG, and Bed got to work on this game and I can't wait to see what they have in store for us. People complaining about the look should just skip all basketball games till next next gen. Guaranteed to get that wow effect that some of you will be looking for....

I don't believe it's "clear". There's a cinematic broadcast camera when Kevin Love attempts a free throw. Correct me if I'm wrong, but users don't have the option to have a camera angle like that in previous titles.

That option was in 2k14 for first free throws. The second FT always goes back to the default camera because there may be rebounds if the FT is missed.

Disappointed by the way players still move. Not talking about complex movement either - watch how abruptly Perkins changes direction at the 2:48 mark. That herky jerky stuff has plagued the series seemingly forever. Nice job on the visuals though.

The player models are basically at the peak, the next step for realism (speaking graphics) is the atmosphere. Different lighting effects during timeouts like when they play videos at the arenas. More detailed crowd, capturing their reactions and chants. Updated rim and court sounds...

I think if we get TNT presentation next year is when the game sort of has that NBA Live feel. 2K has always had better commentary, but the background noise in Live has been pretty good.

The spacing isn't to be desired. The cpu IQ seems to be the same bad one without the proper sliders helping them.

The negative aside as I hate reading negative posts: The presentation looks great. Ernie and Shaq talking reminds me of Fan Night on NBA TV which is a good thing. I see LeBron is slimmer and Waiters was worked on. With the right sliders and if this new rating system makes people play the way they do in real life this game could be the bar when it comes to sports games for the Current Gen of gaming systems.

Can't wait for in depth gameplay by Czar. I know it's coming lol

Its 3 minutes of gameplay. Did you expect them to eliminate animations? Do you really think that the 2k team didnt add any new animations to the game?

of course i do, and i realize the length of the gameplay -_-

Re: NBA 2K15 Gameplay Video - Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

Why do people complain about graphics being close to last year like how can you expect a huge graphic jump like that lol. these graphics are damn near perfect

Re: NBA 2K15 Gameplay Video - Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder

The illegal screens seem like an issue again, great

Presentation looks great.

Kyrie looks the same. Thought they'd adjust the hair based on the 2K15 hair thread.

Do you really think the Devs listen to the gamers?

They don't care, Bro.
